On the new BBC reality show Undercover Princesses, three princesses visit the UK and “go undercover as ordinary people with the hope that they meet a man who will love them for who they are.”
(Note to BBC editors: Maybe you should say, “Each hopes to meet a man who will love her for who she is.” Or are you planning a sequel called “One Husband, Three Princesses”?)
Here’s an excerpt from the show. One of the princesses is nicknamed Cinderella — naturally, I approve of that.
When I moved this blog from Typepad to WordPress a few years ago, I had to transfer all of the content manually and many things got left behind, including most of the old “Royal Week in Review” posts.
However, I saved some of the most unusual links for possible future use, including these quite unusual stories about royalty-inspired works of art (or so-called art, depending on your point of view).
Weird and Disturbing
RIP Prince Harry: an artistic ‘memorial’
Enough to Make Anyone a Monarchist
Performance artist ‘eats corgi’
Winner of the Coveted “Freaky Royal Headline of the Week” Award
Princess Di fountain turns blood red
Just Interesting
Pillow to remember the Tower executed
Which, if any, of these artworks is your favorite? I think the glass pillow is kind of cool.
“Actress Angie Everhart breaks her silence about her relationship with ‘lovely’ Prince Andrew.”
(Prince Andrew is one of Queen Elizabeth’s sons.)
…or, at least, the Internet. You’ll find Anne Boleyn, Elizabeth I, and other dearly departed royals (so far mostly English) over at the clever Undead Royals roleplaying message board.
