Joe Simpson must be screaming in his sleep right now. No, it's not because he looked in a mirror, it's because Bristol Palin and her brand new baby are the subject of a bidding war unlike anything see in the tabloids since, well, in a while. While Pete and Ashlee had a few nibbles at $50,000 for the first photos of Manhattan Jungle Book, the starting price for photos of Bristol's new baby started at $100,000 with any additional bids also in 100K increments. The winner was of course People who loves to spend money to show babies. They spent $300,000 for the privilege of showing photos of the baby and presumably will get a permanent discount on OxyContin from Bristol's future mother-in-law. Or as she likes to call it, "coffee."
In the case of celebrities, sometimes there is the question of whether the money will go to charity or not. In the case here, I think the question is whether it might be scooped up by a respective parent either for their legal defense or to pay their Saks bill.
That guy looks too much like John Mayer. For the babay's sake, I hope he's not the real father.
ReplyDeleteWhat am I saying? For the baby's sake I hope it's not related to any of these people.
Godspeed and good luck to that child. With family like that, it's gonna need it.
ReplyDeletegreat another Palin in the world ...look out world in 2043 they'll take another run at the white house
ReplyDeletecalifblondy, the BI reveals are new year's day.
ReplyDeleteWOW! I have coffee and percocet for breakfast everyday! Seriously. But, I also have a fuc**d up back. And I'm not a parent. Or a Palin.
ReplyDeleteDamn! My life seems pretty good now!
Time for another 'coffee'...
On the Today show this morning one of the female hosts (can't remember which one) was talking about the birth. This is not a direct quote but she basically said that Sarah Palin said that Bristol is an old soul and that she had tired of the teenage party scene and was ready to be a mom. Give me an effing break!
ReplyDeleteI think it is fine to say, yeah Bristol is nervous but I know she will be a good mom or something like that but don't justify teenage pregnancy by trying to make us believe that she is so much more advanced than every other teenager that gets knocked up. It is pathetic.
Hey Sarah the teenage experience is about more than beer bongs. It is graduating from high school, getting your first apartment, going to college if that is your thing, growing up and becoming independent. Just because Bristol doesn't want to hit the OxyContin with the rest of the teens does not mean she is not going to miss out on good things that her non-pregnant friends get to experience.
Having a baby changes your entire life. It is not that Bristol should be condemned for accidentally getting pregnant but be honest about the consequences of her choice.
Sorry for the long rant but I have been stewing since this am
What did they name this one again? Trick?
ReplyDelete"Manhattan Jungle Book" made me snort.
ReplyDeleteButtercup, I suspect that Sarah has a pretty good idea how much a baby changes one's life. But, you have a point about the lameness of her excuse for Bristol.
They named it Tripp. Are they ever going to get married or was that just to placate the "gotcha media?"
ReplyDeleteWhat did Palin name her other baby? The one with Down Syndrome? I don't remember the name, but isn't it similar to the new kid's name?
ReplyDeleteIt was a shotgun wedding, duh. Have you noticed that people who really shouldn't have any children at all always have a bus load of kids? Oh well, I guess we need someone to work at McDonalds.
ReplyDeleteI'm still scratching my head at 'Bristol'... Isn't that some kind of OTC meds? Oh no, wait, it's paint! Right?
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin as reported in People magazine has released the name of her newborn baby. Snuggles Palin is the 4th child to be born in Oxy Conty County Alaska, home of the VP candidate of the Republican Party. When asked why she snubbed the name of the other leading fabric softener, Palin replied that "she had Mooseloaf in the oven and had to git back to it"....
ReplyDeleteAbigail-
ReplyDeleteYou are right...Sarah Palin's youngest is Trigg. Think about it - those two boys are close in age and will probably grow up together.
Tripp and Trigg. Ugh.
