BRIGHTON, Mich. – One of Michigan’s Congressional races just got a little more star-studded.
Actress Melissa Gilbert, best known for being a child actress on Little House on the Prairie in 1974, and was also on Dancing with the Stars in 2005, announced her candidacy for Michigan’s 8th District online Monday.
Her website and Facebook page are active with her opening statements.
The Michigan Republican Party issued a quick statement with a link to a Detroit News article about Gilbert being investigated for being behind on her federal taxes.
