Even though she has her own program (on which she admits she's doing a terrible job disciplining her son, who utters words the FCC won't allow) Bristol Palin just can't get enough of the spotlight. The cast of Dancing With The Stars: All Stars has been announced, and your girl BriPal (Brilin?) is number one on the list of names, alongside Pamela Anderson, Kelly Monaco, Melissa Rycroft, Shawn Johnson, Kirstie Alley, Joey Fatone, Helio Castroneves, Drew Lachey, Emmitt Smith, Apolo Ohno and Gilles Marini. Can't wait to see what kind of songs Bristol will boogie to this time — last year she shimmied to "Mama Told Me Not To Come." [NYDN]
Sad news: Lupe Ontiveros, the Texas-born actress best known for roles in Selena and The Goonies (she was Rosalita), died today of liver cancer at the age of 69. In 2009, she spoke about how she'd played a maid 300 times.
"You'd say, 'You want an accent?' And they'd say, 'Yes, we prefer for you to have an accent.' And the thicker and more waddly it is, the more they like it… I long to play a judge. I long to play a lesbian woman. I long to play a councilman, someone with some chutzpah."
But she also told LA Weekly: "I've had a hell of a good time playing those maids… No matter how much I resent the stupidity that is written into them, the audacity that the industry has when they portray us in such a nonsensical, idiotic, such - oh my God! - such a degrading manner, still, my humor survives in these maids," she said. "I'm very proud of them." [Vulture]
