Comedienne and former Dancing With the Stars contestant Margaret Cho took to her blog to talk about Bristol Palin. Apparently Bristol was forced to do Dancing to win America's heart in time for a presidential run in 2012 by her mother, Sarah Palin.
Margaret Cho: "I heard from someone who really should know (really should seriously know the dirt really really) that the only reason Bristol was on the show was because Sarah Palin forced her to do it. Sarah supposedly blames Bristol harshly and openly (in the circles that I heard it from) for not winning the election, and so she told Bristol she 'owed' it to her to do DWTS so that 'America would fall in love with her again' and make it possible for Sarah Palin to run in 2012 with America behind her all the way. Instead of being supposedly 'handicapped' by the presence of her teen mom daughter, now Bristol is going to be an 'asset'—a celebrity beloved for her dancing. Now I am scared I am going to wake up with a decapitated moose head in my bed."
Cho says she's sure ABC wasn't in on the mother-daughter drama and that Bristol is a "warm and incredibly supportive" person.
Dancing With the Stars returns spring 2011.
