Oh Gods, this video is both embarrassing and awesome at the same time. I was laughing so hard! The best part of this video was learning that "you never have to compromise when you're right. That's for people that are wrong." That will come in handy in my marriage.

There's lots of great stuff going on in our community - join it, check it out, share your posts or advice in the great groups and maybe we'll feature it here on TrèsSugar!

Palin: AP Did "Opposition Research" on Going Rogue

TresSugar — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:00:25 -0800

Sarah Palin blasted the Associated Press yesterday for doing "opposition research," more commonly known as fact-checking, on her new book Going Rogue.

"Amazingly, but not surprisingly, the AP somehow nabbed a copy of the book before it was released," she said. "They're now erroneously reporting on the book's contents and are repeating many of the same things they spewed during the campaign and afterwards."

She wrote this on her Facebook page, which doesn't help her cause, but she is onto something. Going Rogue is embargoed, meaning her publisher will not release advance copies to the press before its on-sale date (tomorrow), and the press, even if it were to happen upon a copy early, is not to review it.

So what did the "opposition researchers" find? Find out after the jump.

William Shatner Is Back For Some More Wasilla Poetry

TresSugar — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 12:20:00 -0800

As you all know, I've been following the prolific tweeting of Levi Johnston (or the person who pretends to be Levi Johnston!). His 140-character musings are sometimes offensive, sometimes funny, and consistently random. You might also remember that master of spoken word recitation William Shatner went on Conan O'Brien's show a while back to read Sarah Palin's Twitter poetry. Well in an effort to be fair, Conan invited Shatner back - but this time to read Levi's tweets. Check out the video and tell me who should take the crown of Alaska's most poetic twitterer?

Levi Johnston to Bare All in Playgirl - Will You Buy the Issue?

TresSugar — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:10:00 -0700

It's now 100 percent confirmed that Levi Johnston will bare 100 percent in Playgirl, but don't worry - the photos of the 19-year-old Sarah Palin nightmare will be "tastefully done." The teen dad will shoot the pics on Nov. 16, the same day Levi's ex-future-mother-in-law Sarah Palin is set to make an appearance on Oprah. Yesterday, Sarah Palin chastised Levi for "selling his body" - but Levi says his nude shoot is no big deal, explaining: "I just get naked. That's what I do."

Erotic magazines for women have had a hard time finding a formula that works. Perhaps attracting good-looking, infamous men like Levi Johnston will give this genre the hype it needs to go mainstream, but there's no guarantee that this type of porn will actually turn women on. Maybe curious women (and men) can still want to see someone naked even if they're not attracted to him. Now that we know Levi is baring all, will you pick up the magazine? Feel free to tell me why or why not in the comments!

Sarah Palin to Sit Down With Oprah - Will You Watch?

TresSugar — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 12:15:00 -0700

During the 2008 election, Oprah declined to welcome sensational VP-candidate Sarah Palin to her couch. The talk show host and very public Barack Obama supporter said she wouldn't have any candidate on her show until the election was over. Now that the election seems like ages ago and Sarah Palin has a new book to hawk, the two will finally have a chat when Oprah interviews Palin on her Nov. 16 show.

I can't wait to tune in to this interview! While Palin makes it clear that she disdains the media's "liberal bias," Oprah hasn't been so shy about having one. Are you excited to see Oprah go rogue with Sarah Palin?

Get Ready to Go Rogue With Sarah Palin

TresSugar — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 11:00:00 -0700

Attention lucky readers! Sarah Palin has finished her book Going Rogue: An American Life, just four months after she announced the book deal. The memoir will be released on Nov. 17 instead of in the Spring as originally planned.

While we don't know too much about the 400-page book, the publisher says: "Governor Palin has been unbelievably conscientious and hands-on at every stage." (Isn't that a given if you're writing a book?) When the book was announced, Palin said she was excited to have an "unfiltered forum" to set the record straight about her life and views.

The publisher believes that the book will be popular - it ordered 1.5 million copies for the first printing, the same number ordered for late Sen. Ted Kennedy's posthumous memoir.

Sarah Palin is definitely a fascinating figure, and based on what we hear from the likes of Levi Johnston, her "American life" can be pretty entertaining. Would you buy her book?

If you've ever dreamed of hanging out with Sarah Palin - now's your chance. But you'd better break open your piggy bank, because as of the time of this writing, the current eBay bid was $38,666.60 for a private dinner for five. But hey, there's free shipping!

All proceeds will go to Ride2Recovery, which benefits wounded soldiers. I have always found the concept of paying to have dinner with the famous and powerful very strange - if you had the money, would you want to meet her?

Levi Spills the Beans on Sarah Palin's Parenting Style

babysugar — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 05:00:21 -0700

Nine months ago, the whole world would have eagerly listened to the utterances of Levi Johnston, the then fiancé of the daughter of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. But like a good boy, he kept his mouth shut. Now almost a year later, the new father has changed his ways. After posing shirtless in GQ, he started gabbing about his child's grandmother. Whether he speaks the truth is questionable, he told Vanity Fair the following:

There wasn’t much parenting in that house. Sarah doesn’t cook, Todd doesn’t cook-the kids would do it all themselves: cook, clean, do the laundry, and get ready for school. Most of the time Bristol would help her youngest sister with her homework, and I’d barbecue chicken or steak on the grill.

He also chatted up the rumor that Mrs. Palin asked him to hide Bristol's pregnancy so she could adopt their son. A case of "he said, she said," we'll likely never know what actually. While the former governor is not currently in the political limelight, these accusations may come back to haunt her should she make a bid for the White House in the future.

Do you believe Levi Johnston or think he's just trying to make a buck off of Sarah's fame?
