Kate Middleton Is Prepared For A Kidnapping

Jessica WakemanAugust 3, 2011 //

Now that she’s one of the most famous women in the world, the Dutchess of Cambridge is a prime target for nutters. Kate Middleton had to undergo personal safety training on how to handle a kidnapping. The British Special Air Service, or SAS, trained Middleton on “key survival skills such as noticing anything unusual in routine surroundings, how to react when attacked and how to build a relationship with hostage-takers,” according to the UK’s Sun. Having the glossiest head of hair in the world comes with its risks!

Is Pippa Middleton interesting enough to warrant her own hour-long TLC special? Someone thinks so! “Crazy About Pippa” will air August 9th at 9 p.m. (EST) and will dish about all fascinating things Pippa-related: her famous sister, her famous sister, her famous sister, and oh yeah, her butt. Pippa is well-dressed, rich, pretty, and posed for a couple of ill-advised boobie pics. What more is there to know about Britain’s “most eligible bachelorette” that has not already been addressed ad nauseum since she rocketed to universal fame three months ago? Guess we’ll find out. Honestly, unless there’s some dirt on a Prince Hot Ginge hookup, I’ll pass on this one. [The Hollywood Reporter] Keep reading »

Jessica WakemanJuly 19, 2011 //
  • Prince William and Kate Middleton received a coco de mer — AKA a “vagina nut,” so named for its resemblance to a woman’s genitals — by the Seychelles foreign minister during their honeymoon on the island.

Kate Middleton Is “Thinspiration” On Pro-Anorexia Websites

Palace PR disaster: Kate Middleton is the new “thinspiration” icon held up by pro-anorexia and pro-bulimia bloggers. Kate has always been slender and athletic, but she dropped a noticeable amount of weight before her wedding. That makes me sad, because I’ve been a royal watcher for years and I’ve always thought she looked pretty just the way she was. Whether Kate’s weight-loss was from exercise, or from nerves over being watched on TV by a billion people, or some combination of the two, we don’t know. But “The Today Show” has found that women suffering from eating disorders are fawning over the Duchess’s new figure. Keep reading »

Can We Stop Pretending Kate Middleton Is A Style Icon?

Julie GersteinJuly 11, 2011 //

As Prince William and Kate Middleton have made their tour around Canada and the U.S., one thing everybody’s been over-the-moon obsessed with is what Kate’s wearing. I, for one, just don’t care. It’s not that I don’t think Kate’s a gorgeous girl with Pantene model hair — she’s clearly stunning and blah blah blah, the picture of English Rose beauty. But really, there is nothing particularly noteworthy about the clothes that she throws on. Keep reading »

Cowboy William And His Cowgirl Kate

Now, I’m not exactly sure what is happening in this photo of Prince William and Kate Middleton as they attended a rodeo yesterday in Canada. But I’m guessing, considering the steer’s bottom and their facial expressions, that it doesn’t smell so good. Also, these two look like naturals in cowboy hats. Kind of.

Dragon Boat Racing Is Having A Moment

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comJuly 5, 2011 //

A week and a half ago, I had never heard of dragon boat racing. But then, for a group date, “Bachelorette” Ashley Hebert had the dudes vying for her love head out into Hong Kong, assemble a team, and join her on the beach for a dragon boat race. I cheered as Mickey and Ames paddled like pros, and laughed as Ben and Constantine remarked that they were being “smoked like salmon, bro.”

Now, just a week later, I’ve had my second exposure to dragon boating, this time via Prince William and Kate Middleton. Keep reading »
