My idea for this thread was that we together are building the list by the opinion of everybody in the subject.

quotes author>grimnir A country still living off and promoting itself by means of a princess deceased for more than 25 yearssadly the pasts is all they have, once the "girls" got past their scandals and settled down it was all over, no one has ever been interested in FaTAl (aside from the faint notion he was gay and a prince JMO) and he did such an awful job of picking a wife, the flunkies are trying to destroy grace for tramolina to step more easily into her place (without any effort like making friends, getting involved in local charities or learning french) IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK Isn't the biggest wedding PR fail that it's still all about princess GraceYES and to be fair all the willKat wedding specials seem to have a large slant toward Diana. the difference is Kate hasn't had plastic surgery to look like Diana, there is a totally different look and syle about them, plus she's in love with her prince. kate has big shoes to fill but she isn't selling herself as the savior of england, while the flunkies have tried to sell tramolina as a "new and BETTER grace" that will save moronaco again NOT GOING TO WORK It's a wedding PR fail because they are not promoting this wedding and these people. It's never the wedding of the human being called Albert Grimaldi with the human being called Charlene. If one or both of them would be replaced, the pr would be exactly the same. excellent points EXCELLENT (clapclapclap) JMO why IT'S NOT WORKING there's NOTHING to work with! Somehow it bothers me. It feels wrong. It's disturbing even. I had an idea and a feelingME2 it's like a big rock in my stomach, but only because i admire Grace so much, when i get that out of my head, it's actually very amusing, watching this trainwreck couple, i see a broadway show, a cross between rocky horror picture show & evita

I posted these two articles before on RD; these articles show that all the PR they did following the engagement had little effect to the audience that they are desperately trying to attract - UK, American, and South Africa - who could care less about Charlene. This journalists for the Economist is begging the american media to pay more attention to Sucker Al's wedding since his mom, Grace Kelly, was an American. Here's an excerpt from an Economist article written the day that William and Kate's engagement was announced. Britain's royal wedding Nov 16th 2010 by J.A. What Cassandra can say is that William will not be the only royal groom in 2011. In July Prince Albert of Monaco, at the age of 53, will forsake life as an eternal playboy—he has admitted to being the father of two children by different mothers—by marrying Charlene Wittstock (who swam for South Africa in the 2000 Olympics). Cue for more coverage on America’s breakfast TV, since Albert is, after all, the son of the legendary Grace Kelly.
[/color] [/blockquote] This British journalist living in south Africa is begging the South African media to pay more attention to Charlene just because she is South African. Here's an excerpt from The Times article. Give Charlene royal treatment Nov 24, 2010 12:06 AM | By Van Blerk Van Blerk, via e-mail: I am a royal watcher as my parents come from Britain, and I am pleased that, at last, royals will marry commoners.
What I find strange is that so many South Africans are going gaga about Kate marrying William.
Why is no one making a huge scene about a South African woman named Charlene Wittstock who will marry her prince in Monaco next year?
Are we not proud of our own? Can we have some gossip about the Monegasques and what Wittstock's protocol and new title will be?

Here comes the new icon - Kate: www.welt.de/vermischtes/specials/hochzeit-william-kate/article13300402/Kates-Brautkleid-eine-Hommage-an-Grace-Kelly.htmlThere was only ONE Grace Kelly. And there can be only ONE who is able to be the new icon. Kate took the wedding gown baton from Grace and goes her way now. This role is occupied 100% - Kate made it very clear today. Now CW is left with nothing: - no wedding of the century - no next Grace Kelly role - no own substance to create a new role - the own wedding (if it still takes place) month after Kate's and in her shadow... CW is always late ... not only at pre-wedding dinners Go Kate!!!

all the media i've been reading this morning, i have yet to see a photo or a mention of the nondynamic duo. if their going to this wedding was supposed to drum up interest in theirs >>PR FAIL because they got NADA ;D www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/royal-wedding/live/8482361/Royal-wedding-build-up-as-it-happened-April-28.htmlThe Queen has arrived at the Mandarin Oriental hotel in Knightsbridge for a pre-wedding dinner with various dignitaries. Lady Anson, the evening's host and the Queen's cousin, met her and was greeted with a kiss on both cheeks outside the hotel.
Earlier, the Princess Royal arrived by minibus along with Zara Phillips and Mike Tindall, and Peter Phillips and Autumn Kelly. Prince and Princess Michael of Kent, Lord Freddie Windsor and Lady Gabriella came in a separate coach.
Princess Victoria of Sweden and her husband Prince Daniel were also present.
Other guests included: the Duke of York, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, Prince Pavlos of Greece and Princess Marie-Chantal, Queen Sofia of Spain, Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia of Spain, Queen Margarethe of Denmark, Crown Prince Alexander of Serbia and Princess Katherine, the Grand Duke and Duchess of Luxemburg, King Harald of Norway and Queen Sonia.

More PR FAILS: * Argentinian media called her Charlotte Bittstock * They arrived 30 minutes later in the previous dinner, which is extremely rude for the punctuality of the British monarchy *Charlene's dress for the previous dinner, it screamed "look at me, i'm getting married also in a few months!" *Their attitude at the previous dinner: Albert wants to get inside, she want to be photographed. *Even with Kate wearing a similiar wedding dress to Grace Kelly's nobody remembered Albert's marriage in July.

countess + emmeline: that's it! Kate is the new Grace. In German TV (and I was watching for hours today! - maybe I missed some minutes...) nobody mentioned Charlene in comparison to Grace. What German royal watchers said indeed was that Kate fits the role as new Grace! CALL IT OFF ALBERT!!!

After "Kate & William" wedding: No double-broadcasts of ARD and ZDFOther double-broadcasts of ARD and ZDF are not planned: "It will take a couple of decades until a similarly magnificent wedding will be celebrated," said Frey. The wedding of Prince Albert of Monaco and Charlene Wittstock on July 2nd will only be broadcast by ZDF.Before the W&K wedding people highly criticized ARD (first public national broadcasting station) and ZDF (second public national broadcasting station) for broadcasting the wedding simultaneously, they said that it was superfluous and too expensive. They did it nevertheless because they knew that people would watch. The C&PA wedding doesn't seem to attract so many watchers otherwise they would do it here as well.
