You know, I always love a happy ending. Bristol Pain may have ended up single with her boyfriend and baby-daddy somewhere in LA apologizing for apologizing to her mother and faking an engagement and reconciliation while scoring some sort of reality television program, but she's not staying down. Nope. She's back in the saddle with a fall commitment of her own: celebrity competition program Dancing with the Stars.
Bristol Palin, daughter of conservative powerbroker Sarah Palin, will test her dance moves against former "Baywatch" star David Hasselhoff and R&B singer Brandy in the new season of "Dancing with the Stars."
The lineup for the 11th season of the TV dancing contest, set to premiere on September 20, will also include crooner Michael Bolton, reality TV star Mike Sorrentino, and actress Jennifer Grey, who twirled to fame in the film "Dirty Dancing."
I cannot f***ing wait. This is going to be amazing. Not simply because my worlds of politics and horrific reality teleivision programming will collide in a blaze of glory surpassed only if the Palins were to appear on screen with a handful of Kardashians (although according to Meg Whitman's Twitter feed, meetings with the Kardashians are not out of the ordinary for politicians). The best part? The season also features 80s pop music icon and my karaoke idol, Michael Bolton, Dirty Dancing star and cautionary tale Jennifer Gray, the Hoff and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino. And badass comedian Margaret Cho who, frankly, based on her spittle-filled political rants I can see trying to sabotage Palin Miss America style.
Personally, I predict Bristol will hook up with the situation, take to fake baking and show up on the next few seasons of Jersey Shore. He's more stable than Levi Johnston, after all, probably because of the 'roids, and she could really have a fascintaing reality television run as she prepares for their inevitable boardwalk wedding extravaganza. Or better yet, bash at the Real Housewives mainstay, the Brownstone. The possibilities are endless. And so is the spandex.
