ABC has released the first photos from the new season of 'Dancing With the Stars' rehearsals. Here are Audrina Patridge with partner Tony Dovolani and Bristol Palin with Mark Ballas.

Bristol previously talked about going on the show to set a good example for moms, and about how her costume will be more conservative than any of the other contestants.'

"That's how I am and that's how I want to dress," she said.

Bristool Palin says she wants to be an inspiration to young moms....OK, then stay at home with your CHILD..not dance on a stupid tv show. She is now a mother and she needs to face her responsibilities!!!

I hope her partner is getting a bonus for trying to deal
with someone who has no idea how to dance.
Just compare her with the girl in the photo on the left,
the girl on the left is a trained dancer. Bristol has no clue.

And her Momma called Levi "Ricky Hollywood" Where is it that she is again? Oh yeah, dancing for $ in Hollywood, California.

Bristol thinks she's the clever one by getting on DWTS, but I wonder if she realizes the show and ABC are just using her? Getting one of the most polarizing people as a contestant is good for ratings. And if she gets a low score wouldn't everybody want to follow the show if Mamma Grizzly mauls a judge or two on Facebook or Twitter? Off-camera drama spikes viewership and a beef with the Wasilla Witch would do that. Considering how thin-skinned the family is (see AK teacher) I'm surprised she agreed; for those judges are not known to pull punches when they see a bad performance. Perhaps Bristol doesn't mind being a victim if the price is right.

She still does not even realize her own Grizzly Mama used her for her own ratings, poor girl.

"her costume will be more conservative than any of the other contestants.'
"That's how I am and that's how I want to dress," she said."

Well, looking at her "People of Walmart" rehearsal clothes, I say PLEASE! wear a parka!
She gives me wood! as in "I wood change the channel if she wore a revealing outfit!" LOL!

The biggest joke is saying she's "conservative" and that's how she wants to dress.
ummmm, excuse me miss? I think being 'conservative' had something to do with actions and behavior, not a dress code. Weren't you out taking advantage of your career driven mom's absence, and banging Levi?
What an insult to Conservatives!

Wow - no wonder the mush-magazines sells. Instead of saying I wish her well, this should be an interesting show.... The blogs seems to be so negative and wishing nothing but hate or the downfall of someone. Frankly, I don't care who's on the show and definitely don't want to see no one do bad especially if I don't care for their viewpoint. For those with such negative things to write, it makes me wonder about you.

ABC should change the title of this program.. When have these individual ever had any talent or considered Stars... This is such a "JOKE".

Should be called 'Dancing With The D-Listers'.

Bristol should restrain from making comments on her conservatism given that what has happened to her. She should forego the puritan mindset, just do what she thinks she needs to do in order to dance well and avoid any costume accidents on stage. To banner "that is what I am" should be dropped and we do not need the faux announcements after the broken engagement "and it feels right" comments because later, it might seem awkward. Less talk is safer.

And yes, the dancing perhaps will let her drop some unwanted pounds.

She said that she has never watched DWTS before and yet she didn't hestitate to say yes when she received a text message inquiring if she would want to do it. I think she should have watched a tape of an episode or two before deciding to do it. What is Ms. Conservative going to do when Bruno talks about being naughty, sexy and compares the moves to having sex?

Hi SadieMcCall. Didn't know Bristol just responded to a text msg offering the DTWS dance slot. How very informal. How did she know it was a genuine offer? This world has become so chaotic. It was already bad that she fires at Levi doing his own thing for his own survival making hay at the offers, and Bristol can just reprimand him while making herself available. Oh, it is a free but unbalanced options for them.

[CarolinaYankee]

Oh, I am sure she knows alllll about sex talk, don't you think?

That's like saying you should refrain from your negative comments (which can be destructive for a young lady (unwanted pound). Whether you agree or not, she has a right to say what she wants. Especially, if it's going to help others that are heading down the same wrong path she went.

I hope (and I know it is wrong to wish this) that she runs off of stage crying on live TV in front of millions of people.

It feels just soooooooo right.

The guy who gets stuck with Bristol better think of some dance routines that doesn't require lifting her.

I don't want to laugh at that, but it just feels right.

No talent; no education; no morals; no ethics.
No problem. With money as a common interest, a symbiotic relationship can exist between exploiter and exploited.

I completely agree..

It's a little late to call herself 'modest.' That dress she wore on Leno looked like a sausage casing. With all the money the Palins have now neither of the oldest seems to be interested in college. Keeping ignorance in the family.

I made the same analogy about the dress, lol!! Good point that it's probably the $ that has quashed any college plans, but she IS an office manager (yeah right!) and making it on her own...ummm, yeah.
Fanned, BTW.

This office management job will equip her to run the state in a year or two.

Have to feel sorry for Mark, like trying to dance with a barrel.

Is she pregnant yet?

Man the Situation must not be letting her see the new Bentley.

No, think she got an abortion.
