Bristol Palin to Star in Her Own Reality Show

She's already done reality with "Dancing with the Stars" -- and her famous mom let cameras follow her around the wilds of Alaska, so we weren't too shocked to learn Bristol Palin is set to star in a reality show of her own.The Los Angeles Times reports the 20-year-old mom's documentary series, which will follow Palin and her son, Tripp, 2, as they move to Los Angeles, will air on the Biography Channel, in 10 30 minute episodes.
"Bristol is the kind of personality Bio is drawn to," a Bio and A&E exec tells the newspaper in a statement. "Her personal life has been playing out in the media for several years but this will be the first time she's opening up her real life."
Not to let her 15 minutes of "DTWS" fame go to waste, Palin, daughter of former vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, and Tripp will room with "DWTS" co-star Kyle Massey and his brother, Christopher, the Times reports. Oh-Kay.
Will Palin ex (and Tripp's dad) Levi Johnston make an appearance? We're thinking no.
"I haven't checked her out, so I really wouldn't know," the Times says he told RumorFix of Palin's new look. "Go on and do your thing, girl, 'cause I'm over it."
Johnston, by the way, has been trying to pitch his own reality show. The New York Times reported last summer that "Loving Levi: The Road to the Mayor's Office" would follow his attempt to become mayor of Wasilla, Alaska.
Do we really need to say more?

Bristol Palin's Reality Show Bombs
Practically no one watched Bristol Palin show when it premiered on Lifetime and the numbers are in. Only a measly 726,000 people tuned in. And it wasn't coincidence, viewers actually turned it off. The show that came on right before Bristols was Dance Moms and it had over 1.1 million. One thing that might have hurt Bristols numbers, is the fact that another show about unwed teen mothers was on at the exact same time on MTV.
