Bristol Palin's Reason for Joining "Dancing With the Stars"

yuck! no way does bristol palin stand a chance. she is so lame i can't even believe the dwts people asked her to be a part of the show.

I think this will take her out of the dweeb category even though she won't win. This contest is for the uninhibited. She's been sheltered all her life and may not be able to accept being touched in areas that she considers off limits--which is necessary for the guy to do in order to move her around. We'll see!

Yes, Bristol will be great! She is a lovely young lady who doesn't deserve to be a victom of negativity. It's a dance show - leave politics out of it.

Go Bristol!

I wish Bristol well in the dancing contest, she is a fine young lady and deserves a chance like every one else. Go Bristol, enjoy the new adventure in dancing you will do fine. You will be dancing with a great bunch of people. Go Girl!

What in any way qualifies BP to be a contestant on this show other than the fact that she's the daughter of the notorious SP? It appears that this opportunity presents itself solely on the basis of a notable parent. Is this acceptable criteria? No I think not. How about giving some aspiring dancers who have worked hard a chance at this.

She didn't ask for the publicity that was given to her and America wouldn't give her the privacy she deserved. Since you all forced her into the spotlight, she might as well turn it into a positive since she is taking responsibility for her baby and not expecting taxpayers to support her. Best of luck Bristol and don't be afraid to move your hips!

I don't even want to watch this year because of her. She is not a "star". She is a teenage mother. She should stay home and take are of her child.
