VIDEO: Bristol Palin Opens Up On DWTS - 'I've Slept With One Guy In My Life'
Posted on Nov 16, 2010 @ 06:45AM
Bristol Palin danced to her best scores of the season on Monday's edition of Dancing With The Stars with her mother Sarah in attendance, though her solid 53-point night was overshadowed by her peers’ equally-impressive performances, leaving the Alaska native at the bottom of the leader board for the seventh straight week.

The format for Monday's show was two dances, a Latin-themed dance with a solo, and a ballroom dance each respective couple hadn't yet used on the show.

Following a respectable 27-point paso doble, Carrie Ann Inaba told Palin, “I’m so happy to see you finally come out of your shell and nail it,” while Len Goodman told her, “Bristol the pistol, you’ve fired a few blanks, but tonight - all guns blazing.”
Her second dance, a 26-point waltz, earned high marks from Bruno Tonioli, who told Palin he “quite liked the way [she] approached this waltz differently.”

Palin, in her practice clips, openly discussed the turbulent nature of her life since the summer of 2008, when her unexpected pregnancy with then-high school sweetheart Levi Johnston fed a media frenzy fueled by her mother's vice presidential aspirations.
"I never had a problems or challenges until I started dating Levi," Bristol said in the vignette. "For people to jump to assumptions, to think that I was some trashy, disgusting girl that was knocked up, [like] 'Oh look she's 17 and pregnant!'

“No, I've slept with one guy in my life,” Bristol said. “I've had an on-and-off boyfriend for years on end. It was definitely a challenge to go through that."
Sarah Palin, also in the clip, said Bristol was unfazed by the possibility of failure and embarrassment on the huge stage, prior to appearing on ABC’s ratings juggernaut.

"She told me, 'Mom, I'm going to get criticized anyway,’” Sarah said. “They may say mean things. They may try to bring ya down but -- doggone it -- you might as well dance!"
Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough were atop the leader board with a perfect 60/60, while Kyle Massey and Lacey Schwimmer were just a step behind with 58 points on the night. Rounding out the pack were Brandy and Maksim Chmerkovskiy with 57/60.

I did not/nor will I ever vote for Sarah Palin, but I have voted for Bristol. GOOD FOR HER I say! Like she says, she is relatable. Teen moms, non-dancers, those of us who've made mistakes. Lots of us support her, not just tea party/S Palin people.

Bristol is only still on BECAUSE of her mother. All the nutty Sarah Palin lovers are voting for Bristol, not because the fat, clumsy girl has improved but because they irrationally follow Sarah Palin like lemmings off a cliff.

Being with only one guy makes underage, unprotected sex okay? She's as stupid as her mother.

Bristol's bad behavior is telling all Young Women that getting Pregnant before you are married is REWARDED. DWTS is saying it is ok we support TEEN PREGNANCY. DWTS sent our kids the wrong message for ratings.

Well then by your reasoning, I guess abortion should be banned as it says lets reward you for irresponsible behavior by taking away the consequence LOL. That's about as stupid as your statement above.

That's stupid. Go pick on someone your own age. I'm sure you can find some other senior citizens to rag on.

Some of them go on to be President of the US and have "cigar sex" with interns.

She gets another $200,000 for every week she lasts. Not much to complain about. It would be a crime if she won this thing. Jennifer Grey is a much better dancer.
