Despite Bristol's assurance she'll wear modest clothing on Dancing with the Stars, Entertainment Tonight does its best to turn things tawdry in this tease of Palin dancing for the cameras (video below).
"Bristol, doing some of her best Pulp Fiction moves, dressed up in black fringe and lace, her leg up on partner Mark Ballas, revealing her thigh."
Gawker is already calling the outfit "not modest at all", HuffPo runs an online poll re: the outfit's "lace and fringe", while CNN says:
The costume isn’t without some sexiness, however, as the dress also bears quite a bit of lace, fringe and ruffles.
Guys, remember, this is Bristol Palin dancing on a TV show. This isn't Sarah Palin applying to be leader of the free world. Cut her some slack.
