Sarah Palin Hits New ‘Low’ on Reality Singing Show
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
If “two is a coincidence, three is a trend,” then something very coincidental happened on TV last night: Sarah Palin performed on yet another Fox singing competition show.
Three years after her stint performing as a pink bear on The Masked Singer, Palin showed up on Wednesday night’s episode of We Are Family. The Fox game show, hosted by Anthony Anderson and his mom, features non-famous relatives of celebrities performing solo, then duetting with their secret famous family member on stage. The studio audience, meanwhile, is competing for up to $150,000 by guessing which celebrity the performer is related to.
Palin’s big moment came when she emerged, sparkly dress and all, from the back of the stage to sing with her cousin JD. Their duet of choice? The Garth Brooks country classic “Friends in Low Places” (which was at least more palatable than Palin’s rendition of Sir Mix-A-Lot’s “Baby Got Back” on The Masked Singer).
Palin was revealed on We Are Family along with NSYNC’s Joey Fatone and NBA legend Kenny Smith. After her big moment, Anderson asked JD how it felt when his cousin ran as the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee alongside John McCain. He replied, “It was mind-boggling for our entire family. It was a heck of a ride, but it was fun. We were very proud of her.”
“Mind-boggling” could also describe Palin’s apparent streak on singing competition shows. Let’s see if she shows up on Alter Ego next.
