Life’s a Tripp: Bristol Palin, Son to Star in New Reality Show

Lifetime has released the first promo pic for Bristol Palin ‘s upcoming reality series, called “Bristol Palin: Life’s a Tripp.” Yes, this is a real story and a real show. The title is a play on words, natch, because her three-year-old son is named … Tripp. Is he Tripp Palin or Tripp Johnston? That we don’t know honestly. What’s undoubtedly clear? The kid’s a dead ringer for his deadbeat dad : The show chronicles Bristol and Tripp’s journey from Wasilla, Alaska to Los Angeles, Calif., where Bristol accepts a job with a local non-profit organization. Bristol Palin tells TV Guide of her decision to star on her own reality show : “I was game for it. I wanted to show how down-to-earth my family and I are. My parents were skeptical at first. But they know I’m responsible.” “I won’t be getting drunk on TV. This isn’t Jersey Shore . It’s a family show.” Okay, there’s no way Sarah Palin objected to any publicity for her family. Unless she’s just jealous that she’s not starring, in which case we’ll buy it. The 14-episode Life’s a Tripp premieres June 19 on Lifetime. Spoiler alert: She will not be letting trip watch Glee, as she thinks it makes kids gay .

Happy 21st Birthday, Bristol Palin!

Bristol Palin, formerly America’s favorite unwed teen mom, is now able to buy alcohol legally. Break out the wine coolers and Levi Johnston’s tent tonight!!!!! Just kidding. Seriously, happy 21st birthday, B! It seems like ages ago that her mom was named to the GOP ticket and Bristol Palin became a household name – essentially for being pregnant as a teenager. Since then, so much as changed … well, her face has . Not much else. KIDS : They grow up and get plastic surgery so fast these days . Between feuding with Levi periodically, amusingly advocating for abstinence, making the finals of Dancing With the Stars , battling hecklers and starring in her own reality show with possible beau Kyle Massey, her star is on the rise. That’s both awesome and very, very sad at the same time. Sadly for THG, but probably best for America, Sarah Palin will not run for president in 2012, so Bristol won’t be in the limelight nearly as much in the upcoming campaign. Still, we imagine she’ll find other ways to milk her 15 minutes. Check out a little gallery of Bristol through the years:

Happy Birthday, Madonna!

Madonna Louise Ciccone, better known by just her first name, is one of the most successful recording artists in music history. She needs no introduction from us. It’s hard to believe that the star’s debut album came out 1983, setting the stage for her immense popularity and pushing of boundaries across the music spectrum. She helped popularize MTV and transform pop with hits like “Like a Virgin,” “Papa Don’t Preach,” “Like a Prayer,” “Vogue,” Hung Up,” “4 Minutes” and many others. Commercially and critically acclaimed, Madonna’s diverse musical offerings have won respect and millions of fans over the years, not to mention much controversy. Madonna turns 52 today. Give it up for the Material Girl! More recently, her music was immortalized on Fox’s Glee , and her relationships with Alex Rodriguez and Jesus Luz have kept her in the celebrity gossip spotlight. She’s also a mother to Lourdes, Rocco, David and Mercy. Here’s hoping she keeps on rocking for years to come. Click to enlarge the gallery of Madonna pictures we’ve put together below and wish her a happy birthday!

Bristol Palin in Harper’s Bazaar: I’m a Hard Worker!

There is nothing really controversial about Harper’s Bazaar’s new feature on Bristol Palin, but she does address sensitive, obvious issues such as teen pregnancy. She admits “it was kind of humiliating ” to get pregnant as a teen. “[I was thinking], ‘Great, I’m 17 years old, I’m 40 pounds overweight with a big belly on me.'” “All my friends are at school watching on the news. This kind of sucks. I thought I would be somewhere warm at college with my friends,” the 19-year-old adds. “But that was definitely not possible with having Tripp” Bristol Palin , who is raising now 17-month-old Tripp as a single mom after ending her fake engagement from Levi Johnston, says life is not what she envisioned. But that’s also okay. Look what she got in return … Bristol Palin and Tripp Johnston looking adorable . “I love my baby more than anything. He’s like a Gerber baby. He’s the cutest baby in the whole world,” she says. “I just want Tripp to be happy and healthy.” Bristol works as a medical assistant and serves as an ambassador to the Candie’s Foundation – as an abstinence advocate , no less – to support her little son: “I’m on my own. I’m really proud of it. I’m a hard worker . I don’t have time for friends or anything. It’s just like, crap, there is a hockey game tonight that I want to go to but I can’t. Or, I do have to go to work today, because I’ve got bills to pay.” Sarah Palin says she’s “very proud of her [daughter] for taking responsibility. It’s not an easy road, but it’s the right road. Decisions were made, and we can’t unwind those decisions. Consequences are being dealt with. I’m sincerely proud of her.” Bristol says her parents had no idea she was sexually active with Levi Johnston, who says Sarah let them share a bedroom when he lived with the family. “It’s not like we sat down and were like, ‘Alright, here’s the birds and the bees,'” Bristol says. “Truly, my parents just assumed that I wasn’t doing anything.”

Bristol Palin to Give Speeches For Money

Bristol Palin recently said life is really hard as a single, working mom. Such is life. But it’s about to become more lucrative for her, at least. The 19-year-old daughter of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin is set to join the speaker circuit and make between $15,000-30,000 per speech, according to reports. Amazingly, this implies there are people willing to pay that amount. “Her teen pregnancy and the birth of her son Tripp resulted in millions of Americans discussing the issue of teen pregnancy,” reads her Single Source Speakers bio. Oh, to be a struggling new mother … giving your infant son a bath and collecting five-figure checks from In Touch Weekly and the like on a semi-regular basis . ” Bristol Palin has since gone on to become a Teen Ambassador for the Candie’s Foundation, and speaks about pregnancy prevention, abstinence, faith and life.” In addition to posing for magazines, Levi Johnston’s baby mama has become an hypocritical advocate for abstinence since welcoming Tripp 16 months ago. In a People cover story a year ago, Palin warned teens about how hard it is to be a teen mom. “Girls need to imagine and picture their life with a screaming newborn baby and then think before they have sex … Think about the consequences.” She said the same in her teen pregnancy PSA for Candie’s.

Bristol Palin: The Height of Hypocrisy

Earlier, we reported about teen mom Bristol Palin’s upcoming cameo on ABC Famliy’s The Secret Life of the American Teenager. Give it up for family values! Isn’t this hypocritical and counterproductive? Isn’t having Bristol Palin on the show basically glorifying teen pregnancy? The network said in a press release: ” Bristol Palin is the most famous teenage mother in America. We’re thrilled to have her join us, and I think she will bring additional attention to the issues facing teen parents that we’ve been exploring for a couple of seasons now.” “I am thrilled to be on this show and to be a part of a program that educates teens and young adults about the consequences of teen pregnancy,” said Palin. What a crock . Bristol Palin has chosen life. And apparently fame. By putting a teen mom in any popular entertainment medium, ABC Family is (indirectly if not overtly) celebrating the fact that she’s a teen who got pregnant. Bristol Palin is known for exactly two things : Being the daughter of Sarah Palin Getting knocked up by Levi Johnston Now her famous mom wants to utilize that fact to make Bristol a celebrity while espousing family values at the same time. It’s as disgusting as it is laughable. Not to mention the ridiculousness of Sarah’s claims last week about her family being off limits. Guess that only applies if Family Guy takes shots at them , eh? This isn’t Bristol’s first dubious attempt to have it both ways. Last year, she was named Candie’s ” Teen Pregnancy Ambassador .” What does that even mean? Especially from a clothing line whose ads feature Britney Spears in booty shorts? 2008: The seeds of celebrity (and Tripp Johnston) are sown. Apparently it matters not, because it’s all about making money off THE MOST FAMOUS TEEN MOM EVER! Really, ABC Family? This is your marketing hook? Altruism, this is not. If education and prevention are really your goals, start doing public service announcements or donating time and money to charity. If the Palins wants to shamelessly promote the Palins and teen pregnancy, great. But let’s call it what it is – self-serving PR under the guise of “education.” We want to hear what you think: What is Bristol Palin’s appearance on The Secret Life of the American Teenager going to accomplish?
