How disgusting! I can't believe Caroline is going along with this? Anyone remember the post by Charlene's doppelganger about How Charlene was going to have to set in the front row and watch her brother marry Charlene! Caroline should have told her brother he could expect that she was never going to be part of it, but now she has aligned herself with them, no one seems credible there now. I can't believe Caroline is letting this woman rub her nose in it.

I'm with you Emmeline! Ugh! I assumed that I would watch the wedding, but the closer we get, I don't think I have the stomach for this gross mockery of the marriage ideal. To think that Grace's tiara will go from her head to that of Charlene. What a travesty! Albert must really hate his mother. That is my feeling--no way would I watch that!

Prince Albert ll (L), from Monaco, is received by Sao Paulo's governor, Geraldo Alckmin, at the Bandeirantes PalacePrince Albert ll, from Monaco, signs the guest book at the Bandeirantes Palace, in southern Sao Paulo, Brazil, on May 4, 2011. Does anyone else notices how Albert has a differnt aura about him when he's not with Conlene? Yes, and these are really nice photos of him, if he would drop a few pounds, he would see that maybe he didn't need any kind of tart at his side to attract attention. Just getting rid of the the tart that brings him down would do the trick. To think of all the money and his reputation he has squandered on this big zero.

;D everything is falling down around him "a bit pricey" rOFL yea if you marry low trash, don't expect a "pricey" crowd to show up and spend money. i see monaco future more like atlantic city, tacky t-shirts on every corner and over weight tourist in black socks, bussed in from little towns for the day. keep the good news coming! Exactly Countess! Ok, this is an extreme example, but Moronaco is taking an Anna Nicole Smith and giving her plastic surgery and a complete wardrobe makeover then thinking that she's going to attract people on the caliber of Melinda Gates or the likes of a Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis to visit and spend money at Monaco's pricey hotels, restaurants and clubs. Monaco is going to be swamped with free-loaders looking for a big payout like the high school drop-out Princess Charlene. No Myadia you are exactly right! I think I even compared her to a Anna Nicole Smith before, and yes they think they can turn a calculating hustler into some kind of cultured elegant woman that people will admire and respect. On the other count too you are right--she is a beacon for all gold-diggers. We have seen that already in their posts as they cheer her on and also the evidence in how they have already attracted sugar daddy sites to Charlene's royal threads, which by the way I thought was hilarious .

Great reporting,Myadia , wouldn't use the indo paper to wash the windows with, talk about lick ass reporters. As for the dinner Michael Fingerton (fingers as his known here) as one of the people who have bankrupted Ireland and should never been seen in polite company at all. Well then it sounds like Charlene was in perfect company there! ;)Maybe if it goes wrong with Albert she can hook up with "fingers" they seem to be cut of the same cloth. Gof job My adia, I hope you guys don't mind me catching up here.

YES - that would be it! And then: canonization subito Let's pray for Albert and Monaco - and even for Charlene that she is in S.A. and stays there!!! Ojcze Swiety Janie Pawle, modl sie za Alberta II. i Monako a nawet dla Charlene i czyn aby ona nie wrocila do Monako lecz zyje dlugo i szczescliwe na przyklad w Afryki Poludniowej a Monako niech rozkwitnie! My first prayer to the Polish Pope Poland and Monaco have so much in common. Poland got rid of communism. And Monaco will get rid of Charlenism ... with a little help from above DEO JUVANTEFantastic idea. Let's pray to the last pope. Won't it be funny when they announce his second miracle: To get Albert to brake off the engagement to Trashlene and send her back to where the sun don't shine, without any money. A big star to each of you! Margaritta, CM and DONNA! ;D

Lagerfeld did the photos? Odd - Mario Testino did Wills n Kate. Those are really lovely. When did Lagerfeld become a pro photographer? Sorry I might have missed something here. Wasn't he bored out of his mind at the first ball when he sat by her too? Karl has always dabbled in photography. he has photographed Caroline and Charlotte for magazines. Just a few weeks ago Karl received permission to shoot a series of photos at the Monaco Casino. Karl is a businessman also, so he knows how rto suck up to Albert like the rest of them. After the Tatler photo shoot, the palace is very careful of who photographed Monaco's flagship - their New Grace creation. The agreeing to allow Karl to photographed Charlene and Albert is the palace latest attempt to but their way into having Charlene be a world style icon. This is the only thing they can aim for this girl. Unfortunately, the palace is still working on a 1956 model for success. They really think that Charlene will draw people to Monaco with her looks and fashion. Karl and Arman needs to be careful with their sucking up praise of Charlene because they may start losing credibility with their audience. For Karl to say that Charlene has a nice figure is ridiculous. Well, she has a nice figurer for a man, perhaps that's what Karl means. When I read that, it is exactly what I thought, they both have lost respect with me! Who wants to support or identify themselves with the image of Charlene Wittstock. I think they have all lost their minds to have anything to do with this girl. Armani, I thought was just getting desperate, but I am surprised Karl would take on this endeavor and suck it up. I can't believe Caroline wants him to do any favors for Chartard? I believe though too his comment could be a backhand compliment, like what else can anyone say about her....politely?

There was an article describing Charlene's piss-ass mood while at Moods club in Monaco. The article talked that Albert ignored Charlene and she spent most of the night pouting with her friends. Also, the article mentioned that a business associate of Albert gave Charlene a gift of a piece of jewelry (I think a bracelet) and Charlene cheered up and slipped it on. I remembered the discussion because Paca had stated what kind of woman accepts such a gift and then puts it on right there. A woman like Charlene that's who. yes I remember that jewelry part very well. That's why I think that the whiteshocks are the Ben Alis of Monaco. Hopefully they will find the same fate I wonder if they took over the first floor of the Hotel de Paris after the inlaws of Ben Ali left. I'm sure the staff wouldn't notice the difference:same social climber background, only different haircolour thx to the chemists.... The whiteshocks--Too funny Paca ;D

Wouldn't you think, if they were smart and trying to convince everyone she had seriously converted to Catholicism, that they would have gone - publicly - to Mass and Communion on Easter Sunday. Easter is only the most important, and most holy day in the entire Christian religion. It's "spiritually speaking" much more important than Christmas. Why wouldn't PA and CW be seen at Easter Mass together. And what a day for CW to show off an Easter Bonnet! This was a no brainer! These people are really dumb. AdminNote: Fixed quoteThat is exactly right CM, but then Charlene at church just seems more a mockery, I don't know why she bothered to convert.

i am sure she will " play the part" as well if not better than the actress who preceded her..IMO she is way way classier than what she is marrying into... (sorry, I am more of a Mary hater so perhaps may not belong here ?) Interesting choice of words. You are right about one thing, Charlene will never "be" the part she can only try to "play" it and I think that is exactly how she sees it, as "play" that is all that has ever been required of her so far it is all just play for her. And if these posts that are meant to support her are any kind of indication of Charlene's class.... But it's good, they speak for themselves. Keep them coming--they serve as a real asset for her .

But hey, she won - and that's all Charlene cares about. Dignity or self-respect are as foreign to this girl as the French language she can't master. [/b] Love this comment! So true! I am catching up on old post, so I hope people don't mind me revisiting a few.

I do not think that PA is so much interested in plain respect. He wants recognition in form of prizes, awards, honorary doctor titles for his efforts to tell other people how to save our environment. The people in Monaco will not change him or the political system as long as their standard of living does not change. If the average standard of living in Monaco were like the one in South Africa, there would not be a Prince Albert, probably not even a princely family. Even if he chose to marry an ape in drags they would not complain as long as their standard of living would be the same. Money rules the world. Therefore let us enjoy the ongoing soap opera about the rock and the rockies. I think they are good for a lot of juicy events. It is just the beginning. The thing is their standard of living is connected to the reputation and allure of Monaco, and it will eventually take it's toll. No one wants to see their Real Estate or the place they live degrade or become unpopular. Truly aside from the friends on the forums, I really am not interested in anything to do with Monaco once Albert actually marries this woman. I think it's kind of funny that so many Royal forums have deleted them off their forums--you would think that should tell them they have a problem and whatever they are trying to convince themselves about Charlene and their big royal wedding. Albert has really only made him self invisible since he started dating Charlene as hard as he has been trying to chase some attention, and it looks kind of pathetic in the way they/he has been trying to do it! People are attracting to people who are the most authentic to themselves. I don't think the people of Monaco are going to pitch a fit (yet) but I think they would be happy and more supportive if Albert came to his senses and stopped this big charade.

"I don't care how much egg is on his face now, because no matter what happens it's going to be much much less now than what it is going to be once he goes through with it and actually marries her. (...) The fact that Albert would be willing to call it off and actually do whats right, no matter how much he might suffer from it might actually earn him some respect from people plus anything is going to be infinitely better than the Pandoras box of trouble he is INVITING and about to unleash on himself. 1001% agree! after reading Paca's posts I think the "true" Monegasques - and people who moved there and really care - would forgive Albert almost anything if he called off now. This ship is sinking if he doesn't bold now! Gooo Albert - be you - call off!!! One time in your live: don't do what people expecting! Turn the tables, stand up, shock and rock the rock. It sets you free! and saves Monaco SANDSLA Sooo glad you're back!!!! I was thinking of you so often and missed your posts Welcome back. Monaco is doomed with CW but obviously not totaly lost. That you are back is definitly a good sign!!! Let's pray that thinks take a turn. [/quote] :)Thanks so very much for the welcome you guys! I'm glad everyone is here! iI could have gotten lost if it wasn't for Myadia. I have a lot of catching up to do!

Very good point, grandduchess! Yes, Diana was mentioned, but the British royal family did not drag her out all the time to sell their wedding. They just let William and Catherine do their thing and the public was what generated all the buzz. Albert is dumb, but he apparently knows that his mother put Monaco on the map. The fact that the palace is reverting back to Grace at every chance tells me that they know Charlene is not selling as promised. Now we will find out if Albert is a total loser. All signs say to cancel the wedding, but it takes a lot of guts to break an engagement, particularly when you have tried to ensure that every person on the planet is aware of it by taking Charlene to Japan and Ireland. That's a lot of egg on your face. Albert needs to show he has some guts and a spine! yes, it's very presumptuous and just really bad protocol to take her on foreign visits when she is not yet his spouse. It's rude and disrespectful also. Who wants to be "used" as a photo shoot to peddle amd promote Albert's mock marriage with his mock girlfriend. No one at the palace is doing Albert, Charlene, or Monaco any favors here by doing this. They look so totally desperate for attention. They all seem to have a total lack of humility about this? Albert just needs to weather the storm, whether it be economical or his personal life--that trouble will pass much quicker than a bad invented marriage yhat is meant to deceive the public. I don't care how much egg is on Albert's face now, because no matter what happens, it's going to be much much less than what it's going to be for Albert and the Palace once Albert goes through with it and marries this girl and actually makes her the Princess of Monaco. He will never recover from it, if he goes through with this. This weird public personal relationship has already cost him his respect and a small fortune already. I don't understand why he wants to ruin the rest of his life--any change now can only be positive from the train wreck path he's been on. I don't understand why anyone thought taking it to another level would help. Even if they manage to discredit Albert they have also screwed their own reputations. Also Grace put Monaco on the map because of who she was as a person before she became the Princess of Monaco. That is where the Palace, Albert, and Charlene have it very backwards. The woman made the title--the title didn't make the woman that was Grace Kelly, she made the title mean something, in the same way Charlene makes a joke of it. It is the woman behind the title that is going to make it mean anything or attract anyone. Grace would have probably been even more popular if she had stayed a Hollywood actress--she did quite a few films in a small amount of time. The palace and Albert and especially Charlene seem to to think the title is going to turn any women with that title into Grace Kelly . Grace already did the heavy lifting in that area Putting Monaco on the map--Albert just needed to find someone halfway respectable that he loved and that loved him.

"The fact that they still need to use Grace's image should tell them what a failure CW is as a PR/economic/glamour boon. To the best of my knowledge, the British wedding organizers did not have to sell Kate to the people using Diana (I'm not saying there were no comparisons made, I'm saying that there was no deliberate campaign) " 100% agree, grandduchess ... and if we take a look at the tread "Barometer of fame of Charlene" - number of facebook fans of Grace and even newcomer Pippa Middleton (who without any effort gained MUCH more popularity in two weeks than CW in six years ...) we know that the CW-New-Flagship-Image campain is a total flop. And still a little time to prevent the worst.To call off the wedding PR-event is damage control and would even boost the image! [/b] So true! I posted a post in the exotic garden thread but I may have deleted part of it, but it was exactly about this. Kate never "posed" for the press. If you have to peddle someone to generate interest you're in trouble. The only people they have managed to attract are other gold-diggers just like her, who else could like or admire her! What are these kind of people going to do for Monaco? They're all out of their minds--we've been warning them from the beginning but they seem hell bent on progressively digging themselves each day into a deeper hole. I really don't understand why Albert surrounds himself with these people--he seems to be on some kind of suicide mission. It's too weird for words!

Charlene always looks like a moll, probably because she pretty much is one. She always looks hard and cheap because....well she is and, that's why she always has that hard cold calculating aura no matter how much money is thrown at her, and then all the surgeries just add and confirm her vain shallowness. Can you imagine Kate posing like that on the cover of Tatler . Of course Kate would never "pose" for any photo op, except at the announcement of the royal wedding and only with William. All the pictures of Kate in all the new little royal booklets are candid photos snatched by reporters through the years that were interested enough to snap her photo, unlike Charlene who was happy to be peddled to get her picture taken and some press. That Tatler cover and photo op, plus just the fact that she did it is so tacky, but neither Charlene or Albert has ever had a problem with her doing photo ops for being the prince's "whatever" she was meant to be? I mean she tried to sue for being called Albert's girlfriend? Charlene has always reminded me of an early Gene Harlow character. Jean Harlow's real name was Harlene, which might also be a good nick name for Charlene--a combination between harlot and Charlene. Sorry I am just catching up on some posts here.
