And now for the most convoluted-sounding show ever: EW.com is reporting that Bristol Palin will star in a reality series for Bio, in which she and her son, Tripp, will move from Alaska to Los Angeles to live with actors Chris and Kyle Massey. Oh, and she'll also work for a charity.

According to the report, Bio has ordered 10 half-hour episodes of the series, with a launch date set for later this year.

Palin and Kyle Massey met while they competed during the eleventh season of 'Dancing With the Stars,' in which they finished in third and second place, respectively.
