Sarah Palin's Secret Pregnancy & Why She Hid It

Sassy Smith — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 16:04:00 GMT

Alaska Governor and former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin gave birth to her fifth child - Trig - almost a year ago. Palin hid her pregnancy from the public and even her own children - but was almost discovered by one of her daughters, when Sarah made one slip-up.

PEOPLE Assistant Editor Lorenzo Benet's biography of Palin, titled Trailblazer: An Intimate Biography of Sarah Palin, reports details on her pregnancy with Trig and why she hid it. The book also sheds light on Sarah's oldest daughter Bristol, and her relationship with fiance Levi Johnston and their newest edition - son Tripp.

A few highlights from the book:

On Sarah's pregnancy with Trig:

One of Palin's daughters found her ultra-sound photo of Trig but Sarah explained it away. "Sarah made one slip-up - but [she] dampened suspicion by explaining it away." Sarah was also given the news that her unborn baby would have Down syndrome, but did not disclose that information to her family either, until after his birth on April 18.

"Not discussing the pregnancy with her daughters, she felt, would shorten the process and spare them from unwanted attention." Sarah also felt unsure about how to handle her own emotions.

"Not knowing in my own heart if I was going to be ready to embrace a child with special needs - I couldn't talk about it."

Trig's health issues started right at birth:

Baby Trig was born with a congenital heart defect typically found in about 50 percent of babies with Down syndrome. However, his cleared up without requiring surgery.

The Palin home is typical of a big family:

There are chaotic times, like in any household, one-on-one basketball games, kids bantering back and forth and take-out dinners. They have lots of extended family to help out when needed, especially when Sarah was on the campaign trail last year. The family also hired a Wasilla nanny to lend a hand.

On the relationship between Sarah's oldest daughter Bristol, and her fiance Levi Johnston:

Bristol and Levi became teen parents on December 27, 2008, with the birth of their son, Tripp.

During her pregnancy, Bristol, now 18, was living in Anchorage with her aunt and uncle, Heather and Kurt Bruce. She was working two jobs and attending West High School.

Levi was living 40 miles away in Wasilla, but, "there was certainly no ban on them dating. Levi used to drive to Anchorage to take Bristol out."

Heather Bruce was quoted for the book: "He used to bring her flowers and take her to dinner and a movie. He would come in and say hello, but he says few words. He's a quiet boy."

As a parent, I'm not sure I'd hide my pregnancy from my older children - what's the point? Sure, I'm not in the public eye, but why hide it from your own kids? They're eventually going to find out and why not let them be a part of it? I don't like 'secrets' in a family - but that's just me.

Back in Alaska, Governor Sarah Palin still wants more. The ex-Republican VP nominee, Sarah is trying to write a tell-all book. She's represented by the same lawyer who represented Barack Obama and the Clintons for their book deals.

According to sources, Sarah is looking for an $11 million advance! That's a pretty tall order, since Hillary Clinton got only $8 million in advance for "Living History." Laura Bush received just $2 million in advance for her upcoming White House memoir. What the hell makes Sarah think she's worth $11 million?

There may also be a TV deal coming, though Sarah's lawyer remains mum on the subject. He's gotten deals for NBC's Brian Williams, Lesley Stahl, and Dr. Sanjay Gupta (the new Surgeon General in Obama's administration).

Sarah is now halfway done with her first term as governor, and gave her State of the State Address last night in Juneau. She congratulated President Obama and said if Barack "governs with the skill, grace and greatness of which he is capable, Alaska's going to be just fine."

Madonna and Lourdes Talk It Out (Video)

Whit Honea — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 22:34:00 GMT

If there is one thing I love it's making fun of people. Luckily, I do it for a living. Life is good.

Still, I can't say I'm a fan of making fun of kids, no matter how crazy their parents are.

That being the case here is a video making fun of Madonna and her daughter Lourdes. I'm torn on this as the joke on Lourdes isn't her fault, but rather the result of grooming policies established by her mother.

On the other hand the role of Lourdes is obviously the hero in this video, so there's that.

I'm not sure who is playing Lourdes, or whether the actor is a young girl or a man. If I wasn't late for Happy Hour I'd look it up, but since people are just going to leave nasty comments regardless of how much effort I put into this post I'm going to run. $2 pints don't drink themselves.

Stop The Presses: No Photos Of Tripp Johnston!

Sassy Smith — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 13:05:00 GMT

What? No big fight over the first rights to Tripp Johnston's baby photos? It was reported that a few magazines were in a bidding war for the pics and that PEOPLE won, paying a price of $300,000, but apparently that's not the case. So what gives?

A PEOPLE exec denied the claims that Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston were paid a whopping $300,000 for the first photos of their newborn son, Tripp.

Managing editor Larry Hackett said that they "had conversations" about the photos with a Palin rep, but no deal has been made, and no money has changed hands.

"Would I like the pictures? I would love the pictures, but I don't have them."

Hackett wouldn't say if they're continuing negotiations or what price the mag would be willing to pay the teen couple and their infant.

Paul Harris, who is with Pacific Coast News photo agency said that the $300,000 is an appropriate figure for a sit-down portrait session BUT only if the photos included new grandmother, Sarah Palin.

Harris adds that if Palin were to run as a presidential candidate in 2012, then maybe the pictures would be worth something but he doesn't think anyone will pay big money for "street photos" of her grandson Tripp and his teen mom.

"Maybe if the father left her and went off with Angelina Jolie, but that might not happen," said Harris.

Nope, I'm guessing Levi isn't running off with Angie.

Sarah Palin Voted Most Desirable - You Betcha!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 19:07:00 GMT

Most desirable 'what' you ask? Well, some might think it's how she looks in a bikini but this poll was asking Americans who they would most like to live next door to - and the winner was Sarah Palin!

Why? Is she one of those moms who all of the neighborhood kids flock to, who think of her like a second mother? Perhaps. She is self-admitted down-to-earth person and a "hockey mom" so maybe that is, in part, what puts her at the top of the list.

Palin got 14 percent of the vote, Oprah was second and Olympic champ Michael Phelps was third, with 9 percent.

Surprisingly, Britney Spears was the least favorite celeb - no one wanted to live next to her. What? Shocking!

Other celebrity parents were not viewed very neighborly - David and Victoria Beckham, Rosie O'Donnell and even Joe the Plumber.

The poll was done by real estate website Zillow.com in December, with nearly 2,200 Americans voting. All were over the age of 18.

Sarah Palin: Tripp's Parents Aren't High School Dropouts!

New grandmother Sarah Palin, wants to set the record straight about her daughter Bristol and the teen's fiance, Levi Johnston - they're new parents to baby Tripp but they're not high school dropouts!

It was recently reported that both Sarah's daughter, Bristol and her baby daddy Levi, were high school dropouts, but that's so not true. Who knew that sometimes celebrity gossip isn't true?

Palin said that Levi is enrolled in a high school correspondence program and that her daughter is enrolled in regular school but that she's also taken a few correspondence courses.

Sounds like, despite being teen parents, Bristol and Levi still want to get a good education. Smart move.

Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston arrived December 28 and his parents plan to marry this summer.

Bristol Palin Gives Birth To A Son!

Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston: Grandma Sarah Palin's Statement

Sassy Smith — Thu, 01 Jan 2009 20:03:00 GMT

Alaska governor Sarah Palin is a first-time grandmother after her 18-year-old daughter, Bristol, gave birth to Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston on December 28, 2008. Sarah is "over the moon" about the newest member of the family and has issued a statement in regards to the baby's arrival.

Governor Palin said:

"We are over the moon with the arrival of this healthy, beautiful baby. The road ahead for this young couple will not be easy, but nothing worthwhile is ever easy. Bristol and Levi are committed to accomplish what millions of other young parents have accomplished, to provide a loving and secure environment for their child. They are both hard workers, they’re very strong, and have faith they’ve made the right decision in setting aside their own interests to make this child their highest priority.

"When Bristol and Levi first told us the shocking news that she was pregnant, to be honest, we all at first looked at the situation with some fear and a bit of despair. Isn’t it just like God to turn those circumstances into such an amazing, joyful blessing when you ask Him to help you through?"

And daughter Bristol added:

"Teenagers need to prevent pregnancy to begin with – this isn’t ideal. But I’m fortunate to have a supportive family which is dealing with this together. Tripp is so perfectly precious; we love him with all our hearts. I can’t imagine life without him now."

Tripp Johnston Speaks Out: Take My Family, Please.

HerBadMother — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 16:46:00 GMT

From a letter sent by Tripp Johnston to Alaska Child Welfare, released, presumably, by a disgruntled employee who very probably didn't vote Republican:

FR: Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston
TO: Alaska Department of Health and Child Welfare
RE: Get me the f&$* out of here.
December 30, 2008

To whom it may concern,

Please consider this my official petition to be gotten the f&$* away from these people.

There's more (as reported by Pinko Magazine, which, you know, is a TOTALLY reliable source):

Seriously. I was just born yesterday and today Aunt Willow took my stuffed dog and drew a red target on its face. Mom keeps asking me if I want “breast moose” and I don’t even know what that means. Uncle Trig is like, no help at all. You have to get me out of here...

(On Grandma Johnston) Everyone thought she was cooking meth, they knew it for months, it was kind of glamorous right? She wasn’t even cooking meth though, she was selling oxy contin! That’s mad shady. I guess if Sarah Palin was about to be my baby daughters baby daughters baby gramma I’d want some painkillers too but seriously...

(On Grandma Palin) Yesterday she swaddled me in $312,481 in unreported Nieman-Marcus dresses. Grandpa Todd is fine I guess but he’s always texting Grandma about troopers to fire and budget items to cut. They have bigger things on their plate. Also mom said someone named UNCLE JIM DOBSON was coming to talk to the whole family about something called 2012? That can’t be good.

Poor baby. Not even a week old and already freaked the hell out.

Seriously, though, he needs to calm down. Having teen parents isn't so bad; just ask the newest Spears baby. And who doesn't have a failed Vice-Presidential nominee or two in their family tree? Or a oxycontin dealer? WHATEVER. Call me when there's a felon or two in the extended family, or a circus performer, maybe. Drugs and politics are so ordinary.

That 'breast moose' thing, though? That is disturbing.

Poor kid.

First Photos: Bristol Palin's Baby $300,000 Deal

Sassy Smith — Tue, 30 Dec 2008 18:09:00 GMT

Bristol Palin and fiance Levi Johnston welcomed son Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston a couple of days ago and already there's talk of the newborn's photos! Baby Tripp may have started a bidding war....

According to a source, bidding on the first photos of Tripp started around $100,000 and reportedly PEOPLE have won the rights to the pics. In Touch Weekly was the only other mag that made a serious bid.

The price however, didn't immediately go up because Sarah Palin stories didn't do well on newsstands. An insider dished, "Sarah was on the cover of People, Us Weekly, and OK! the same week, and really only People saw a bump in sales."

But no worries - because of grandma Johnston's (Levi's mom Sherry) arrest on drug charges - the price went up.

"The bidding started well before the baby was born, but once Levi's mom was arrested - well, then you had a story," explained one editor.

While none of the mags would confirm the final price, it's estimated that Bristol and Levi will earn about $300,000 for their baby's photos.

Nice chunk of change for teen parents. That'll buy a lot of diapers!

The calendar is $15.95 and reportedly has some never before seen pictures.

I loved the "Inquisitr's" take on the calendar. They said, "Early reviewers say the calendar looks promising at a glance, but once you get to really know it, you realize it was definitely the wrong choice."

Sarah Palin's 18-year-old daughter Bristol has given birth to her first child! The teen and her boyfriend, Levi Johnston, welcomed a healthy, baby boy. And what did the young couple name their new bundle of joy?

Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston arrived on Sunday, December 28, weighing 7 lb., 4 oz. He was born in Palmer, Alaska.

Colleen Jones (who confirmed the news), sister of Bristol's grandmother Sally Heath, said, "We think it's wonderful. The baby is fine and Bristol is doing well. Everyone is excited."

Bristol and Levi plan to marry this coming summer.

Congrats!

People can't seem to get enough of Sarah Palin in a bikini. The mother of five and soon-to-be grandmother of one, is even being noticed by PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). They've featured the Alaska governor in a new game and apparently Palin's camp is not happy about it.

Want to pelt Palin with snowballs? Even Madonna and the Olsen twins are featured, among other celebs. I actually played it - and kids will love it. They may not know why they're throwing snowballs at famous people, but it's entertaining to say the least. Hey, if you've got some time to sit mindlessly and click your mouse, then this is for you.

PETA's plan was to urge Internet users to help make the holidays safe for animals by "fighting back against notorious animal abusers."

Ingrid Newkirk, PETA's president, claims she received a call from a rep (who didn't reveal their identity) from Palin's office, threatening to sue if they didn't remove the game from their website. Talk to the lawyers says PETA!

PETA'S VP, Bruce Friedrich said, "Sarah Palin is a bully who never saw an animal she didn't want to kill, so it's not surprising that her staff would try to intimidate us anonymously and then backtrack when called out. Our game represents a fun way to focus attention on a very serious subject - cruelty to animals supported by Sarah Palin and other targets of the game - and we have no intention of taking it down in response to these pathetic attempts at intimidation."

Communications director for Palin's office, Bill McAllister, said that they are not upset about the game at all.

"We take all kinds of shots all the time. We realize we're a fair target. I could care less about the game."

He added, "This allegation about a lawsuit is just too much. No one in our office knew anything about it. And PETA has refused to say who called."

Gather the kids around and have some laughs - you can play the game here. I love the portrayal of Madonna too - just as scary as real life. Hey, maybe when Madonna is acting like a unreasonable parent (according to her pre-teen daughter), Lourdes can take her frustrations out by throwing snowballs at her mother! Same goes for Sarah's kids.

Bristol Palin's Baby Daddy: Mom Arrested On Drug Charges!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 16:34:00 GMT

Levi Johnston's mother, Sherry L. Johnston, has been arrested! She was taken into custody Thursday and has been charged with six felony counts of misconduct involving a controlled substance. Her son Levi and his fiance, Bristol Palin are set to give birth on Saturday, so I guess grandma might not be around to see her grandchild be born!

A statement issued by troopers, who served the warrant at Johnston's home said she was arrested at the "conclusion of an undercover narcotics investigation."

Sherry Johnston has been charged with second-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance - generally manufacturing or delivering drugs - and fourth-degree misconduct involving controlled substances, or possesion. She was released on a $5,000 unsecured bond Thursday afternoon.

Authorities would not release any other details but said that the investigation had been going on " a while" prior to Johnston's arrest.

Sarah Palin's rep Bill McAllister released a statement by e-mail, indicating that they won't actually be releasing a statement: "This is not a state government matter. Therefore the governor's communications staff will not be providing comment or scheduling interview opportunities."

This might make for uncomfortable tension when the Palin and Johnston families get together for the wedding of Levi and Bristol and the birth of their baby. Of course grandmother-to-be Johnston is innocent until proven guilty.

Hopefully the soon-to-be-parents will be better role models than grandma.

Bristol Palin is ready to pop and that means Sarah Palin will become a grandmother! Sarah's father, Chuck Heath said their family has been receiving much support and gifts from all over the world.

"In Sarah's mailroom, there's 87 boxes - big boxes of mail that haven't even been opened. I've been answering letters all day, all week. We figure there's over a hundred thousand pieces here."

Heath said they still get a lot of public attention - and scrutiny. "It completely changed everything here. [We're] just a common, ordinary family... All of a sudden [we] jumped into the mayhem."

Sarah's dad said the family is very supportive of his daughter and her political career. Heath added, "We're very supportive of our daughter and her family. Anything she wants to do or undertake, we're backing her." That goes for his granddaughter Bristol, who is set to give birth in a few days.

Chuck said, "My daughter will be a great grandmother. She's a great mother - great daughter, great mother. I don't know about how much time she can spend, she's so busy. But she'll get her licks in. Don't worry."

Heath said that he and his wife will spend lots of time with their great-grandson and he'll be a "normal, happy, healthy kid.

"My wife, Sally, is just looking forward to taking care of him. She's one of those good grandmother types. The grandkids and the kids come first. I come second."

Finally - Sarah Palin's Medical Records Released

Sassy Smith — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 21:01:00 GMT

Governor Sarah Palin, could be the next Vice President of the United States in just a few hours and her medical records have finally been made public. A letter from Palin's doctor was released stating that she is in excellent health and has not suffered from any major medical conditions throughout her life.

Palin's health is outlined in a two-page document dated November 3 and was sent by Dr. Cathy Baldwin-Johnson from the Providence Health and Services Alaska clinic in Anchorage. It states that Palin has been a patient to the clinic for seventeen years and her visits pertain to pregnancy and routine women's health care.Dr. Baldwin-Johnson documented that in 1992, Sarah Palin had undergone a breast biopsy for a lesion that was later determined as benign. It states that Palin is not taking any precription meds and did not suffer any drug allergies and deemed her fit and capable of taking on the responsibilities that the vice presidential position encompasses.

The document states that Sarah Palin, 44, has given birth to five children, 2 sons and 3 daughters - Track (born 1989), Bristol (1990), Willow (1995), Piper (2001) and Trig (2008). Dr. Baldwin-Johnson stated that Palin's pregnancy with Trig carried no other risk than her age factor.

Does this now put to rest the theory that Trig is not Palin's son and that of her daughter Bristol?

SNL & Weekend Update With John McCain & Tina Fey as Palin: Videos!!

Tina Fey "You Ignorant Slut"*

Sarah Palin To Tina Fey: Don't Hang Up That Red Suit Just Yet!

Sassy Smith — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 17:06:00 GMT

It's Election Day and Sarah Palin told Tina Fey not to hang up that red suit just yet. Palin said, "We hope that Tina Fey Keeps that Sarah Palin outfit she has because we hope she'll be needing it a lot in the next four years. We'll give her some material. She's very talented and it's been nice to have that kind of levity in the campaign....I've really enjoyed it."

In an exclusive interview with Billy Bush from Access Hollywood, Sarah Palin talked SNL, her pregnant teen daughter and what she would have done differently on the campaign trail.

Palin was asked if she thought celebrity endorsements of Obama have hurt the McCain-Palin campaign and she said, "I don't think that many in celebrity-dom are too much a part of representing the real hard-working middle-class Americans who have great challenges, especially financially."

Did Sarah make any mistakes on the campaign trail?

"Not being able to anticipate the unfair shots that were taken at my kids and at my record that could so easily have been disproved. Some of the things the media claimed, like I tried to ban books, which were obviously so false. We were unprepared for those inaccuracies in mainstream media, that we couldn't correct the record fast enough. That kind of hurt in the beginning."

About her pregnant daughter, Bristol, 18 - did she cry when she heard the news her child was expecting?

No! "Bristol is a very strong young woman and she's going to be just fine and a wonderful mom.

"Bristol and I and the rest of the family know this is a team effort. And to be thrust like that into a spotlight on a national scene was perhaps an unfair shot to be taken. But really, if we don't have thick enough skin at this time, as candidates, and I consider our whole family - this is a candidacy for all of us, we shouldn't even be running for office. But we know it's all going to be worth it in the end."

Although Tina Fey has been fantastic as Sarah Palin, I'm thinking she may have to hang those red suits up.

Be sure to VOTE!!!
