This is a very common tactic in crisis communications -- line-up 3rd party people to speak on your behalf. We will know how desperate they really are when some combination of Caroline, Stephanie, Casiraghi Trio, and/or members of Kelly family make public statements about these two "love birds." I can't get over this push for Karl quotes! What happened that made him such a Charlene lover--did he get in a fight with Caroline--Albert must be paying his rent there too! Too bad, because I've always been fond of Chanel. They need to stop making a big deal with Karl, because all these years he has had nothing to do with Charlene, which is something considering Caroline and her daughter has always been dressed by him, and he is the resident designer there, and he isn't the designer that was chosen to design her wedding dress, and the designer of her wedding dress--the one that dressed her all these years who sponsored her hasn't murmured a word, and the designer talking her up (it would seem ) has never dressed her once , yet they keep quoting him! It only points to Charlene's problems with using people and the reason she doesn't have any friends! These people are so stupid!

another article stating that they are too old as a couple to incite interest. Even TMC says they are not expecting a huge audience. They also say that it has been suspected that the supposed flight was to get people interested.... MetroFranceAdminNote: Fixed link

When does anyone have to deny it's "not a deal!" Karl really doesn't mind sounding like a total idiot! Why does he want to talk up a woman who chose another designer-two other designers to design her wedding dresses! I hope more people keep saying how it's "not a deal" ;D

Remember his face that first ball when he had to sit near her!! He was bored to tears...

I'm posting this under media problems as it shows that the couple is not attracting people. Whenever they were on the cover, the rags didn't sell as expected. Bern thinks the rumour boosts the interest....It does make you wonder about the PR setting this entire thing up. They know that people will always find a scandal credible with Monaco. On the other hand making Albert look bad to make CW look good doesn't sound like a good strategy either...devious yes, but good in the long run? Then again MC PR never ever acts with foresight. they would be terrible chess players. A 3 year old could beat them..... tvmag.lefigaro.fr/programme-tv/article/people/62822/monaco---bern-une-explosion-d-audience.html OMG, I knew it, I knew it - that Charlene was not selling magazine covers! Many have stopped putting her on covers - especially Bunte. Point de Vue has been the only one consistently praising her with covers. I believe that Charlene and the palace starting giving Paris Match exclusive interviews and access with the agreement to put Charlene and/or the couple on the cover(recall they took Paris Match with them to Japan). Oh, by the way, Bern is stark raving mad - please medicate this man - quick! Talk about looking out only for one's own interest - jeez - and this is the only type of friends that Albert and Charlene have surrounded themselves with. So, why in the HELL did Albert and Monaco believe that Charlene was going to attract the wealthy and cultured to Monaco! Why? As a PR advisers isn't it Stahl's job to gather all the magazine cover sells and TV audience viewership concerning Charlene? Clearly, Albert was convinced that his extravagant party/event (wedding - which is estimated costing $70 millions) was going to change EVERYONE's mind about Charlene. HE really thought that all the money that they are throwing at this event was going to buy them everything that they had hoped for. How's that strategy working for you Sucker Al? Yes you would think myadia? But then Albert has always been happy to pay them to put her on the cover! That is the only reason she has ever made it on the cover of anything! It is always a special PR favor, probably like some kind of payola deal. If they have to go to these lengths to hard sell her then that should tell you something! NO ONE IS INTERESTED in this woman! NOT THEN NOT EVER! And she sure didn't care enough to help herself any! If people aren't even interested in reading about her, how did they expect she was going to attract so many to Monaco! These Advisers of his have to be as shallow and stupid has Charlene--no wonder they like her! They really are insane to think there was something so so special about this girl, that she had to do nothing but look pretty in a dress and that would make people flock to a country! Apparently these people have never been anywhere else in the world! I don't know why the expected people would travel the world to see one more wanna-be plastic birdbrain gold-digger. Everything we have said...every suggestion, every piece of advice from the beginning has came to pass....everything we use to get shut down for....all the warnings we gave from the beginning about what they faced.....if only someone had listened or acted on just one piece of advice or warning....which we all gave i for free for no other reason than to want to see Monaco and Albert succeed! How much do you think Albert has paid Stahl and her PR team to destroy his own image into a failure--how much in total has been spent on this Charlene campaign--how much has Charlene been paid all these years including all her expenses, add then the wedding , all the PR and stupid interviews they have had to do and pay someone to apologize for Charlene's remarks/actions and character, and then their own stupid stupid idea of a fake relationship campaign played out in the press for the press. In total how much has Albert paid all these people to help turn himself into a failure! We gave him better advice in just one single posts of ours for absolutely nothing, and for absolutely no other reason than to want to see him and Monaco succeed! It really is unbelievable!

Is there a reason Albert is afraid to fire Stahl or his advisers or pr team that has gotten him in this mess!

Monaco : dans les coulisses du mariage princier - by Stéphane Bern (You do not have to read this, it is boring). www.lefigaro.fr/international/2011/06/30/01003-20110630ARTFIG00689-monaco-dans-les-coulisses-du-mariage-princier.phpSome comments on the article: What parody! but who can believe a second in this remake of la cage aux folles? (This is really funny!) A prince of junk was never anything of his life than be the son of his father and that of French journalists "Monseigneur", a Principality whose nationals goinfrent thanks to money earned elsewhere and placed to cause less taxation, Monaco is an insult to democracy. (this is what many people say here)

Thanks, paca. TF1 will start the broadcast and France 2 will take over. ‘CNN, which had sent some 50 people around Westminster, should send much less.’ ‘RTBF (Belgium) planned to broadcast the festivities, there is no such thing in Switzerland. In Germany, the public channel ZDF broadcast the ceremony, although so far, the marriage has been a moderate interest. ‘
No media excitement! ;D

Here's this morning's "media watch from America"
Philadelphia Inquirer: a very small, 6-line "blurb" in the People section which mentioned only the alleged run-away incident. No mention of the Kelly family attending or Chris LeVine as best man.
NBC's Today Show: teased a piece all morning and finally aired it at 8:16AM (note: the William and Kate in Canada piece ran within the first 20 minutes of the show) ... it was luke-warm and featured two "friends" of the couple denying the run-away story and saying that Grace would approve of Charlene. I'll post the piece once it appears on-line within a hour or so.

Two photos, one comparison ===> One ironic conclusion : "No, she couldn't be happier."

www.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/europe/07/01/monaco.royal.omens/index.html?hpt=hp_c2on the day of the ceremony, Cnn has a really snarky piece, no fawning or drinking koolaid in the states. last night was ALL about WillKat landing in Canada and the caley anthony trial> closing statements today, that's what Americans have been tuned to the past few weeks. i didn't see one mention on any of the shows last night, not a "wedding special" NO mention at all ;D brand moronaco PR FAIL

Thanks smt. What the heck was the reporter wearing? She's dressing like Charlene! Did we miss something? Bern trying to do damage control and the best he could say was that you don't wait so long to back out the day before! That was not a denial. JMO
