Happy 22nd birthday, Bristol Palin!

It might not be the happiest of birthdays for the conservative babe as she was just eliminated Tuesday night from Dancing With the Stars: All Stars, but that doesn't mean we can't send the reality star some well wishes!

Prior to her DWTS boot, the daughter of the former vice presidential candidate was busy ballroom dancing on the boob tube, stirring up controversy on the All Stars shows and butting heads with partner Mark Ballas.

From Saddle Ranch showdowns to plastic surgery speculation, the mother to 3-year-old Tripp has endured her fair share of backlash throughout her years in Hollywood. But luckily, the reality star can always count on her "mama grizzly" (that'd be Sarah Palin) to come to her rescue and slam all those haters.

Last year, Bristol celebrated her 21st birthday by caribou hunting with friends (of course), but this year, the television star might be celebrating in Los Angeles if she's planning on doing any DWTS elimination press.

Dare we suggest that the former fox-trotting femme dry her reality tears by celebrating at a famed Hollywood hotspot?

Admit it, you'd kill to see a Palin takeover of the Chateau Marmont (as long as Sarah leaves her flash dance attire at home).

Happy birthday, Bristol!
