Bristol Palin Lands Her Own Reality Show

By AOL TV Editors Posted May 9th 2011 05:30PM

Bristol Palin has scored her own reality series. The daughter of Sarah Palin, former governor of Alaska, will star in her own series on BIO.

According to BIO, the currently untitled show will follow Palin as she moves from Alaska to Los Angeles with her baby, Tripp. She goes to work at a small charity and moves in with fellow 'Dancing With the Stars' contestant Kyle Massey and his brother, Christopher.

"Bristol is the kind of personality BIO is drawn to," David McKillop, executive vice president of programming, A&E Network and BIO Channel, said in a statement. "Her personal life has been playing out in the media for several years but this will be the first time she's opening up her real life, with her son and her friends the Massey Brothers."

Bristol Palin shot to fame after her teenage pregnancy made headlines during her mother's vice presidential run.

Palin has previously appeared on 'Sarah Palin's Alaska' and was a finalist along with her reality show castmate Kyle Massey in 'Dancing With the Stars.'

Last July, rumors about a potential Palin and Levi Johnston reality show swirled when the couple briefly reconciled. Those never came to fruition and Palin joined 'Dancing With the Stars.' She also has a memoir, 'Not Afraid of Life,' in the works.

So right! I've already blocked Discovery for Sarah Palin's Alaska, just another cable station to add to the list. I don't even want to bump into it by accident!!!

What's the difference between Bristol Palin and a caribou?

About 10 pounds and the caribou is better looking.

Bristol Palin is gorgeous! Instead of criticizing this young lady, why don't you women do something about your own lives.

I liked her on DWTS and she only gets picked on b/c of her last name. Just b/c her mother ran for VP and that was over two yrs ago. Give it up . She is a good mother ,knows she made a mistake .
Helll don't tell me the majority of other kids her age are not having sex . That's BS. She just happened to get caught and that was before her mother ran for VP.
She's sweet leave her alone.

ps..not from the USA so could care less about who voted for who.

I am happy for you Bristol, your doing a great job as a young mom. At least your not on welfare, your out making decisions and money. Good for you I'll be watching :)

i remeber back in the day no one was in the news
or even had a tv show unless they were newsworthy
or of significant fame. today, you can be an under-
educated slu# with a basta#d baby and get a tv show
for doing nothing more than sucking from the teat
of your has been mother. How standards have fallen.

AAWWWWW BAD DAY GARY? :) LOL

By Rosi

it pays to not go to college, to not get married, to have a mother who is crazier than hell, all you have to do to get cash aplenty is to have a little bastardo and keep spreading those legs.....just claim that you are living like a nun and all is well. SKANK SKANK

I blame Sarah and her husband for not encouraging the girl to go to school and get an education after making a mistake. They can afford it, but I think greed and fame take precedence over moral value and education. She does not have any artistical talent or any other talent, so I think she should go back to schoo.

what is she gonna call it The Twlight Zone

I couldn't believe it when I heard that this girl would be getting her own show? In the 2 1/2 years since America was introduced to the (ahem) Palins it's been one big silly fantasy being played out in front of us. What, may I ask, can this young woman have to say to anybody that anyone would want to hear? Sheeesh! Ridiculous!

What a waste of airtime!

By lindee

Another teen mom tv show? What is the entertainment or life lesson to be learned from her that MTV hasn't already aired?
