We gotta collpser! Camilla's nervous breakdown.

Publication: National Examiner
Date: 1 August 2011

The low rent Examiner tells us the Camilla Parker-Bowles is once again upset, or continues to be upset. If we accept the view of the Globe and the low rent Examiner, she's always in a bad mood about something. In any case, here are this week's headlines.

• She collapses in jealous fit over Kate
• "They love her! They hate me!"
  
  

I created a new label this week, "we gotta collapser" specifically for the stories in which people collpse. I went back and re-labeled stories in which variations of the word are used, and this one will be the 23rd time. As you might expect, women do more collapsing than men, delicate little flowers that they are, and while women of child bearing age get more cover stories than older women do by far, about half of the collapsing stories are about women past the age of menopause. For example, this is the third collapse in a year and a half for Camilla, so she's averaging about one every six months.

Meanest story nominee: Kate collapses!

Publication: National Enquirer
Date: 1 August 2011

The Flagship has three stories in one about celebrities in trouble on the cover this week, but because there are so few stories in general - especially because of the J. Lo divorce and the Lachey-Minnillo wedding - all three will get separate treatment.

According to the Enquirer, Kate Middleton collapsed on the recent tour and her husband has ordered bed rest, what with him being an old fashioned future monarch and all.

Lucky he didn't send her to the Tower. He can do that, you know. Sadly, he can't do it to Rupert Murdoch.

(Psych. The royals actually can't do that anymore.)

This is a nominee for Meanest story of the Week.

It's official! William named king!

Publication: Globe
Date: 25 July 2011

Once again, the tabloids go forward with the rumor that Charles will be passed over and William will be king after his grandma dies. Note that Betty Windsor is only 85 and her mom lived to be a jillion. It's not a sure thing Charles will outlive her. Actually, it's not a sure thing Wills will outlive her.

That said, having someone pushed out of line for the throne without murder is really rare in British history.

Meanest story nominee: Kate Middleton pregnant AND anorexic!

Publication: Star
Date: 25 July 2011

The Star has a story about Kate Middleton, but it has nothing to do with the visit. Before they were hitched, it was a little rude to say she was already pregnant, and now the rudest stories say she can't get pregnant because she's too skinny.

So Star puts both those threads together and tells us Kate IS pregnant and too skinny at the same time. In what they call a "pregnancy and anorexia shocker!", they say she is 95 lbs. and pregnant. Kate is 5'10" (or 1m 78 tall and weighing 43 kg for my non Yank readers). Some top models are that tall and usually even the way skinny ones are still slightly over 100 pounds.

This is a nominee for Meanest Story of the Week.

KATE MIDDLETON'S CALIFORNIA COUTURE STYLE RECAP!

Prince William and Princess Catherine had a very brief Northern U.S. tour, but an even briefer stay in California which was only for three days! Here's Kate Middleton's California fashion recap within those three days, six events, and five outfits!


Landing in beautiful Southern Cali, Kate premiered a dove-gray Roksanda Illincic gathered dress with nude pumps and an L.K. Bennett clutch.

Later that day, she changed into a kelly green Diane von Furstenberg belted green dress for a reception at the U.K. Consul General's home.

For her second day in the golden coast, Kate opted for a printed Jenny Packham frock and nude criss-cross L.K. Bennett heels at a Santa Barbara polo match cheering on her hubby.

That evening, the princess stunned at the BAFTA Brits to Watch Gala wearing a flowing Alexander McQueen gown, Jimmy Choo heels, and metallic clutch.

On the royals' final day in the west coast, Kate opted for a demure Lina Dobby pleated skirt and navy crochet top, paired with blue suede pumps and a tan clutch.

Farewell to the beautiful royal couple who stayed in the best coast for such a short time, especially California! I wish they would've visited Disneyland at least, such a trademark to California. I hope they come back very soon so a stay that's more vacation based along with community service based. As usual, Kate Middleton looked so stunning and demure - a great princess quality.

Dressed in cowboy hats and Alice Temperley blouse, Kate Middleton looked very much into the rodeo spirit that embraced Thursday's Calgary Stampede in Calgary, Canada; which pulled out approximately 425,000 royal fans.

Duke of Cambridge Prince William, striding by the side of Duchess of Cambridge, was also dressed in cowboy hats, green plaid shirt, jeans and boots.

The British Royal Couple wrapped up their Canadian Visit on Friday with a visit to Calgary's world-famous zoo. Kate stepped out in a bright red coat for their latest royal appearance, though she and William opted not to wear their new cowboy hats. The pair has had quite a visit to Canada including a dragon boat race, visiting a stampede, and taking in a cooking class.

On reaching California the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge received a warm welcome as their plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport - where they were greeted by a procession before being taken to tend to their busy schedule.

Kate Middleton and Prince Williams' Last Day of Royal Canadian Visit

Kate in Canada!

Publication: People
Date: 18 July 2011

Technically, Kate Middleton is not Princess Catherine but Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. (William is Duke of Cambridge as well as Prince William.) But in the gossip rags, she's just Kate, and she's still getting a lot of press, especially on this first trip to Canada and the U.S. All the other supermarket rags had Wills on the cover with her, but People was focused completely on her, not that guy she's married to who just going to be king one day.

It reminds me of a quip of John F. Kennedy on an overseas trip in 1961, when he told the press he was "the man who accompanied Jacqueline Kennedy to Paris".

Prince Williams was wearing a navy suit, with a light blue shirt, and a red tie, while Kate Middleton dressed up in a bright yellow outfit made by Jenny Packham. Keeping to her earlier style, she wore her nude LK Bennett Pumps, her Kiki Citrine earring, and held her LK Bennett straw clutch.

Kate, who was having problems keeping her primrose dress down in the gusty conditions, instead focused her attention on a six-year-old cancer patient, Diamond Marshall, who presented her with flowers. The Make-a-Wish Foundation had arranged for the girl to be there.

KATE MIDDLETON'S CANADIAN FASHION RECAP

While Kate Middleton is headed towards Southern California, we can all recap her fashion choices during her tour in Canada. She seemed very appropriately dressed in every occasion, looking well put together and showing off her signature look wearing cinched waist dresses at the knee. Kate had 9 wardrobe changes in just a few days there! Let's recap:



On Canada Day, she wore a ruffled white Reiss dress with a Sarah Fletcher maple leaf fascinator, Anya Hirchmand fan clutch, and red pumps.

She wore Montreal based designer Erdem twice in two lace-embellished looks. One was a royal blue dress with lace sleeve details landing in Quebec and the other was a full on lace dress landing in Montreal. Both looks were paired with nude L.K. Bennett pumps and matching clutch.

To visit the Canadian War Museum, Kate opted for a gray Catherine Walker dress with Peter Pan collar, Tabitha Simmons lizard pumps, and matching clutch.

During a visit to Charlottetown, she wore a sailor inspired white and navy Alexander McQueen dress with Prada pumps and hair tied back.

From Fort Levi in Quebec City to Prince Edward Island, Kate wore an off-white Joseph dress with a cropped jacket and nude pumps.

While boarding a Canada bound private yet, she wore a navy blue Roland Mouret dress with matching Smythe jacket.

For a meet and greet in Canadian youth, Kate donned a black printed Issa dress.

At a Canada Day celebration, she looked stunning in this purple Issa dress showcasing her small waist.

At a rodeo in Calvary, Kate and Will both brought their best cowboy gear. Kate donned a Western-style Temperley London blouse with jeans and a white cowboy hat.

On her last day in Canada, Kate wears a buttercup yellow dress by British designer Jenny Packham along with her nude pumps and matching clutch.

Kate Middleton is the epitome of a true princess. Not only does she have the demeanor, but she dresses the part very well. She looks amazing in absolutely everything and knows what definitely fits her style along with looking royally fit.
