Hi,
AFAIK MX is for mail. You might try just
ns1.BlueHost.com for the DNS 1 and
ns2BlueHost.com for the DNS 2 if this is what you have been instructed to use.I can’t tell you more because I never bought a domain name from wordpress.com so I don’t know what the zone editor used looks like.

To point the domain you registered at WordPress.com to another server (hosting service), please follow the instructions here:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/change-name-servers/#changing-domain-name-serversNote you will need to obtain the name server values from your current host. You should be able to find them on their support documentation, or contact them and ask for the information. (Name servers may be referred as “nameservers” or “NS records” instead.)
Hope this helps – let us know if you have any more questions!
