Considering how much attention she has received, it isn’t often that an individual might see Sarah Palin booed. It appears it did happen, on “Dancing with the Stars”. Or rather, it could have happened that way. It depends on who you ask. Palin had good reason to be there. Bristol Palin is one of the super star dancers. Bristol Palin isn’t off to a horrible start either, although she is within the middle of the pack.
Audience did not boo Palin
Bristol Palin being on “Dancing with the Stars” means that Sarah Palin is going to show up. Throughout the show, Jennifer Grey got critiqued by the most judges, and a round of boos came from the viewers, as outlined by USA Today. Through the boos, the camera panned down to the . However, when zooming in, there sat probably the most famous also-ran in the world. Even Tom Bergeron, one of the show’s most judges, said the boos weren’t for Palin. He insisted, when he was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel’s show, that the boos were from the score the panel gave Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough. The audience actually applauded Palin.
Who did nicely
Bristol Palin really did pretty well. She scored a 22. So far, Bristol has been solidly within the middle, so she is safe for now. There’s a reason why 80s artists like Metallica aren’t on this show, and artists like Michael Bolton are, who scored a grand total of 12, according to the Los Angeles Times. Sadly, when a man or a woman does not like someone’s performance, that person gets sent home. That is apparently next in line for Bolton. The previous professional athletes are doing well, as may be expected. Rick Fox and Kurt Warner both got standing of 21. Florence Henderson, “The Situation,” and Margaret Cho rounded out the bottom, ahead of Michael Bolton.
Not the worst year yet
This hasn’t been the worst season so far. It ought to be entertaining. Certainly, some things do not help the ratings. The most famous state first daughter is one of them. Not a soul, as the line from “Dirty Dancing” goes, puts “Baby” in a corner. Jennifer Grey became a cultural icon for the role, and so far she still has her chops.
