Bristol Palin makes long-awaited acting debut
"In a guest-starring appearance set to run July 5 on the ABC Family teen drama "The Secret Life of the American Teenager," Sarah Palin's eldest daughter will reprise a role she knows well, playing an out-of-wedlock teen mom named Bristol Palin."

"Critics have assailed her fee arrangements — and her own past statements dissenting from the abstinence-only message. In a 2009 interview with Fox News' Greta Van Susteren, she characterized teen abstinence as an option that was "not realistic at all."



Early reviews of Palin's acting debut have been less than charitable — at least in the Web's snarkier outposts. Gawker.com's Matt Cherette pronounced it "horrid," and gossip impresario Perez Hilton archly declared: "Pencil shavings have more personality than this girl!!!"

4. For crying out loud, she can't even play herself.
She's almost as bad of an actor as her mom is a human being. It's clear where all the good genes in that family wound up. With trig.

13. And where is Trip/Trig/Trap/Tree... whatever the hell that kid's name is?
Where is Bristol's kid? She is off, all over the country, telling everyone how great she is for keeping her "choice" or "mistake", whatever her audience is wanting to hear that day. Mama Palin is out holding teaklanner rallies and making an ass of herself.

Aside from the photo-op, where we're then told the media and the liberals are exploiting Mama Palin's kid, or when she straps him to her back while pulling weeds, who the hell is taking care of the children in this "family values" family? :shrug:

16. The last waning seconds of that 15 minutes of fame.
I thought it would be over by now. Apparently, either my watch is fast or hers is slow.

As in 'pulling a stunt'.
