I think that's how she got her start.
I call her financial success and celebrity AS an unwed mother, and her affiliation with Candies, wildly at odds with her message to avoid premarital sex and children out of wedlock. I wish Bristol well, hope she is secure and happy and makes a good marriage some day.
Here I will spell it out for you real simple like:
Bristol Palin achieved fame and fortune because her mother is Sarah Palin. NOT because she is one of thousands upon thousands of women to have a child outside of marriage.
