The Public Life of the Overexposed Teenager: Bristol Palin Talks TV Debut, Levi Johnston
Bristol Palin is no stranger to the spotlight – her mom, Sarah, ran for Vice President of the U.S., and Bristol herself became a celebrity for having a child out of wedlock.
While the 19-year-old is in Alaska raising Tripp, she still makes news often, be it for her relationship with Levi Johnston, her TV debut or random magazine interviews.
Speaking of which, regarding rumors that she and Levi are back together after a year at each other’s throats, Bristol wouldn’t really go into it with In Touch Weekly.
“There are a lot of rumors about everyone and everyone’s business,” she said. “We are working together and whatever is best for Tripp is what we are going to do.”
She is thrilled, however, to call attention to her guest-starring gig on her favorite TV show The Secret Life Of The American Teenager, a show about teen pregnancy.
In the episode, airing Monday, Bristol Palin plays herself and befriends Amy (Shailene Woodley), whom she meets at a music program for teen mothers.
“There was no hesitation on my part at all,” she tells In Touch. “It’s a family-based show, right up my alley. Teen pregnancy is something I can relate to.”
“It was a good fit. Going through the teen pregnancy at the same time Amy was going through hers was extremely relatable. I had felt the same things.”
Bristol Palin adds that she’s not hoping to become a movie star.
“I have never done anything like this,” she smiles, “and I don’t think I will ever do any sort of acting again. I’ll leave it to the experts. But I had a great time.”
She’s also ready for her detractors: “I don’t really pay attention to the negative stuff written about me I don’t know why they would say anything negative.”
“Just because we are dealing with the teen pregnancy issue and sex and relationships? It’s not like I am acting as a prostitute or something.”
No, but whether she educates and discourages or merely promotes and glorifies teen pregnancy while enhancing her own celebrity status is debatable.
Is she discouraging or promoting teen pregnancy?

Spotted: Matt Kemp and Rihanna!

Spotted: Matt Kemp and Rihanna!
Matt Kemp can’t buy a hit to save his life these days, batting a paltry .182 with 21 strikeouts in his last 14 games and even riding the pine the last two nights.
Fortunately, the L.A. Dodgers outfielder is still a hit with Rihanna.
The singer and the slugger stepped out to West Hollywood’s Mastro’s steakhouse on Saturday after his team’s win against the visiting New York Yankees.
Keeping a tight grip on her man, who returned the favor, the red-headed singer is enjoying downtime with Matt, who she began dating over New Year’s.
Unfortunately, she resumes her “Last Girl on Earth” tour in July, but Matt Kemp and Rihanna seem to be making the distance thing work for now at least.
Rihanna may be a world-famous singer, but on this night, she was just Matt Kemp’s girlfriend. Not a bad catch for either party. [Photos: PacificCoastNewsOnline.com]

Ne-Yo and Monyetta Shaw: Expecting First Child!
Ne-Yo is going to be a father.
The singer recently told Ebony he is expecting his first child, and that he recently flew home to Atlanta to be with his girlfriend during her first ultrasound.
“I am 30 and I do have my first child on the way, and I am very, very, very excited about that,” Ne-Yo revealed. Ne-Yo’s baby mama is Monyetta Shaw.
Joking that his firstborn will be “stubborn, he revealed that his girlfriend is due to give birth in early 2011, meaning they must have just found out.
“It’s a New Year’s baby,” said Ne-Yo, whose new album is set for September 21 release. “I’m just in a really good place in life right now.”
Congratulations to Monyetta Shaw and Ne-Yo!
