Bristol Palin was apparently the target of a threatening package containing a white powder that was sent to the set of Dancing With the Stars.
As Bristol gets her dance on once again for Dancing With the Stars: All-Stars, not all fans of the show are particularly pleased to see her back on the program. One ambitious individual sent a package containing a suspicious white powder to the Dancing With the Stars set at the CBS Studio Center where the popular ABC dance competition show is filmed, reports TMZ. The threatening package was accompanied by a note that read: “This is what will happen to you if Bristol Palin stays on [the show].”
MSN notes that the powder in the package ultimately proved to be harmless, just like many others that have been sent out in what has become an occasional and disturbing trend meant to evoke anthrax-by-mail scares that peaked in the early 2000s. Bristol Palin herself has actually been sent a package like this before back during her DWTS stint in 2010.
We’re not exactly out of our depth in saying that the Palin clan is not without its outspoken detractors. Though most of the vitriol is often pointed at “mama grizzly” Sarah Palin, her daughter, Bristol, has been on the receiving end of much criticism herself. Several controversial incidents stemming primarily from Bristol’s reality show Life’s A Tripp have particularly marked her otherwise sweet and down-to-earth persona, occasionally pushing the young mom into media-pariah status.
Regardless, the threat is being taken seriously, and a full investigation is currently underway.
Maybe it’s the same disgruntled Dancing With the Stars fan from 2010? In any case, Bristol is once again safe to tango.

wow- if they catch this guy, he should be euthanized. She is incredibly gorgeous.
I hate to say this but this people that send threatening hate mail or package harmless or not they are just being coward I bet this people cannot even peel a banana I there not. They are brave when it comes to the internet. they are a loser human being..
I would like to see them in person see how brave they are. Stupid people and very coward.
She seems to need attention, any kind. I think she sent it to herself.
This girl does not deserve all the advesity she is getting. No, she is not the best dancer, she is not really a celebrity, but was thrust into the limelight, because she is an unwed mother (who isn't these days) and because of her mother. I think we should let the girl live her life. She does not deserve death threats, and white powderly substances sent in the mail. Lets live and let live.
She use to be cute, now she's fugly like her Mom!
Why in the hell would somebody threaten her…she's virtually nobody but another set of lips for her mom. Her mama probably did it so she could get sympathy votes. She had a "threat" the last time she was on…not buying it.
Funny, that was my first thought too!
She is a nobody who slept around and had baby big deal! It is amazing what a slut gets!
She is trying to take attention away from her ex's beautiful girlfriend and their beautiful baby.
Did the clock stop two years ago on her 15 minutes of fame?
Sounds like yet another Palin PR stunt to me. Wouldn't put anything past her "manager" granny grizzly. Oh and as far as the voting goes, there are Sarah Palin fan sites that tell you exactly how one person can vote multiple multiple times for Bristol. Just like last time. No surprise there.
