Albert and Charlene’s first official public kiss is famous – but not for the reason that they hoped. Many in he media have noted the awkwardness of this first kiss. It will be great to post any articles or comments about this kiss. I wished I would have saved some of the earlier ones that I saw - they were hilarious. What’s really hilarious is that the palace probably told them to redo the kiss when they went outside – because they did. But, no matter what they cannot redo this image!
So, this thread is dedicated to any news, information or of course your opinions about their first kiss.

In this article, a body language expert says neither Albert nor Charlene were enjoying the kiss. Of courser they comparing this kiss to William and Kate’s. I would love for some to put this kiss on the cover of their magazine. From HollywoodLife:
Prince Albert & Princess Charlene’s First Official Kiss Was ‘Lackluster,’ Says Body Language Expert!by Alli Holt, reporting by Josh DeMilta July 1, 2011 The Monaco royals’ balcony kiss following their civil ceremony was certainly no Will & Kate — does this mean their relationship is doomed?
Prince Albert II of Monaco made Charlenne Whitstock his wife and Monaco’s new princess when the two married in a civil ceremony at the prince’s palace July 1 — but is there already trouble in paradise? Based on their awkward balcony kiss, body language expert Vincent Harris sure thinks so!
“This is about as lackluster as it gets,” Vincent explains. “These are the kinds of kisses grandmothers place on the heads of their grandchildren.”
Vincent says the prince’s open eyes and the princess’ tight lips as clues neither of them were enjoying this kiss. In other words, it was very unlike the not one, but TWO, kisses Prince William and Kate Middleton shared on the balcony of Buckingham Palace after their April nuptials!
“If your eyes are open, you think only of looking at the object of your passion, and use your hands and arms to pull them as close as possible. We see none of that here,” Vincent said, referring to the Monaco royals’ less-than-passionate kiss.
Perhaps the couple, who have been dating since 2005, will show a bit more enthusiasm as their wedding weekend continues. Though their civil ceremony officially made them husband and wife, it only kicked off a number of events to celebrate the couple’s union. The real wedding, which is rumored tocost over $65 million, will be a religious ceremony in the courtyard of the palace July 2.
That said, maybe the rumors of Prince Albert’s infidelity and love children are true…which would definitely help explain the couple’s lack of passion!

Here's another headline about the kiss from the Daily Mail, however, most of the article is about Nicole (and Charlene dislike of her) and other gossip about Albert's other dalliances. I'll cross post this article in Albert's ex's thread - please let's not turn this thread into a discussion about the items in the article about Nicole.

It seems to me that he's kissing her and calculating how much revenue he's going to get now that there is princess... This guy is so dumb!

I think he is vacant, just going through the paces. She thinks she's finally bagged PA - after the wedding the fun will get started again about the kids.
This Kiss is indicative of how the whole wedding will play out.
She may be shot in the rear with her new found title but she doesn't have the wherewithalll for the job.

What first kiss? He kissed first in salle du trône. Albert can't kiss. He wants to go quickly… They Kiss as their relationship. Fake. “These are the kinds of kisses grandmothers place on the heads of their grandchildren.”LOL

I didn't enjoy that kiss either./D It was so yucky to watch. It's the sort of kiss that makes you want to not kiss ever again. It's the sort of kiss that can only be carried off in a comedy....but hey this is a comedy and it will be a tragic comedy eventually.

Fake. “These are the kinds of kisses grandmothers place on the heads of their grandchildren.”LOL they only used that phrase to avoid the awkwardness of saying fathers kissing daughters who try to look like the mother of the groom. I suppose if they would have said that they would have had to say that this kiss is a kiss of double incest: father/daughter- mother/son. Live on TV. No wonder it's so gross.

“This is about as lackluster as it gets,” Vincent explains. “These are the kinds of kisses grandmothers place on the heads of their grandchildren.” Like this kiss Vincent - Charlene and Albert in Japan? Funny, so Charlene has moved down from daughter to granddaughter in Albert's eyes? She really does have the mentality of a spoiled 13 year old child.

The photo where her shoulders are hunched up really makes me laugh. She looks like she is gagging and about to throw up. LOL

The wedding kisses looked like two people who have never kissed each other before and are not comfortable in an intimate embrace together. Did it never occur to them to practice before hand? Only an idiot would be unaware that a public kiss after the wedding is expected.

OK I just asked my daughter to take a look at this kiss. Here are her comments:
She is forcing herself on him (why I ask?) because her eyes are closed, and his eyes are open. He wasn't expecting it, and he's not even looking at her so he didn't initiate the kiss.
Just her opinion!

LOL he wasn't expecting to be kissed after getting married and going on the balcony? He has attended how many royal weddings in the past 30+ years? i found the first kiss when they were giving each other the peace much more telling. She quickly removed the veil kissed, this time better then the first time, and then turned around and had for a moment the expression of utter and deep disgust on her face. I saw it when German TV put it on slow motion. She can keep a decent face for about as long as it takes to do the kiss,because she knows the cameras are on her, but when she turns away sh just can't fake it anymore. She quickly put her serious face back on, but to me that was the moment of truth.

She looks like she wants to vomit and he's probably just eyed some hot young thing for one of his yacht parties!!!!
