Well I guess Bunte didn't quite get the inside track here and is just writing some phantasy fiction again. They claim that it was a ball and that people were dancing to the music of clegg in the opera. As you can see from the pics in PM, they did not take the seats out. the few people which attended did sit down as they always would in the salle Garnier. Also it is not a festival, the Cafe de Paris simply put a few SA dishes on their menu and changed the decoration. They do that all the time, so no big deal and hence no one came. Too funny they chose a pic where trashy looks particularly bitchy.... www.bunte.de/royals/charlne-von-monaco-strahlend-schoen-ehrt-sie-ihre-heimat_aid_35509.html

I meant to say Princess Rania. Nevertheless, all those Princesses had made sure to pooped up a couple of children and engaged themselves with a serious work and charities FIRST...Charlene was/is the only one who threw herself on plastic surgeries and manic shopping. Her only charity and obsession was/is "Princess Charlene".

I think you're goingto start to see the rise of nationalism in Monaco if its supposed spokeswoman doesn't stop working for the other team. Even Marie-Antoinette didn't shove Germany down the throats of the French as does this version with South Africa. First, let SA develop a culture THEN try to export it. Monaco should try her for treason and be done with it. All those people who gravitate to Monaco aren't buying into the South Africa of Europe nor going for Monaco safaris or apartheid haven. Let's be real. If the goal of her foundation is to prop everything else but Monaco then how is she different from a con artist with a hand in the coffers, pilfering it to South Africa? Monegasques are ridiculous to let themselves be had. You'd think there were sharper people.

LOL there is one really true statement in the article about MC wives and that is the one about accountability. The residents are there for one reason and that has nothing to do with the country. They pay a fortune for their kids to stay dumb. That's the International school mostly, but the others aren't much better. There are hardly any people in that country that care about it. Even the Monegasques. As long as their lifestyle is secure, they do not care what happens to the country. That's why no one complained that Rainier was basically a dictator and no one was allowed to speak their mind without getting arrested or thrown out of the country. To them those who complained were in their eyes ungrateful and a threat to their lifestyle. Those who warned that MC was built in a way that makes it dependent on the whims of others and that in the longrun MC would not be able to survive on that, were traitors. As soon as you move away from MC you are a traitor. People change their attitude towards you. YOu are an outsider again. They are willing to welcome you very quickly. You are a welcome relief for their boredom, once they know you are a resident and not a tourist. But as soon as you move away you are no longer relevant to their lives. People there do not want things to change. They only don't want to be called taxevaders and criminals. The problem Monegasques have is that they can not go away (well they can, but they would actually have to be good in their job and pay rent)Now, in the crisis they realize that they were living in a bubble all these years, kept quiet with money and what it can buy. Now, in the crisis there is not enough money to go around to all of them any more to keep them under the delusion that everything is great in MC. Nothing was great in MC, not even under Rainier. People only didn't notice because the rich left enough money for everyone. Now the rich are going elsewhere and so are the gawkers who actually were the ones who left most money. Also the attitude with a lot of people has changed thx to the crisis. People are less keen on brands and looking at the rich. 20 years ago you could impress young people with your car. Young people don't care for these things anymore. That's why they don't go to MC. And that is why MC only has visitors with one foot in the grave....and now they realize that it won't be long and no visitors will come, because they are either dead or elsewhere, having fun. And they have no clue what to do. Albert thought that being a cheap and nasty immitation of his dad would do the trick. But it doesn't. For decades the best posts went to unqualified staff as long as they were Monegasques or well connected. The qualified staff tends to leave quickly again. Look at Allavena. I have friends who came to MC as managing hotel staff and who left asap to go back to their old employer because in MC people were unwilling to change things and put in the necessary effort. In MC you pay first class prices, but you only get discounter value....and that's why even the elderly don't want to come anymore.

repeat same thing over and over again: we love our Prince Albert and our sweet Princess Charlene. We know what happens if you don't: anyone remember Marc Giacone? And there was that guy who got convicted for calling Albert something while being drunk (the guy, not Albert).

I find Cassis beautiful by comparison. You get a similar viewpoint of a bay but pristine, almost unchanged by time and trends. We all grew up buying into the Hollywood fabricated image of Monaco but the reality is, it has no ground left for discovery and its mystique has the air of a deflated whoopie cushion.

Her only charity and obsession was/is "Princess Charlene". Hey ladies! So True! Always has and always will be! Can you imagine Charlene being present at the event above, besides no one wants her there, and I can't imagine someone inviting her to anything close to an event where it was supposed that she has half a brain in her head. That's why they put her with Children or with the mentally impaired. God forbid she have to answer any kind of question. If she can't answer the most basic question, about her life as a princess..... Albert is an idiot to be building anythung in this girl's honor. He ,ust plan on keeping her around for along time, and he is making sure there will bo know woman after her, if they ever divorce. Albert doesn't have the balls to divorce her, if he couldn't dump her as his do nothing whore for six years. Sorry, this is the first thread I have read-are the sisters still MIA? Who can blame them. Albert continues to make one bog joke out of Monaco with this girl, as always he is burying himself even deeper with all this in Charlene's name. I can't believe he doesn't see or CARE that people knew what this fake tawdry relationship was all about, even before he did. Nice to see you here RP

We all grew up buying into the Hollywood fabricated image of Monaco but the reality is, it has no ground left for discovery and its mystique has the air of a deflated whoopie cushion. Outside of the old hotels there, and a few new one's, there is nothing with any personality. There aren't realy any old villa's or cool old historic apartments that I've seen that you can rent. The apartments for rent there are small and so sterile. Is anyone doing anything with that cute little historic hotel that went out of business. That would be a cute boutique hotel or apartments. Anyway You can stay next door in some places with a lot of personality, even if you are there for an event. There is a reason women are up in arms about this girl, no old fans of Monaco they use to have are interesting in supporting a woman like her, and that is what one would be doing if they supported Monaco now. I can't imagine the kind of people that will support something with Charlene's name on it. I guess that's why Albert has to build somthing and put her name on it-what's new with this girl? Same as always. The idea that she was some big sports star is hilarious. I am sure it will be a big bomb like everything else contributed to her, including Albert! Charlene a worse mistake than any of those kids ever will be to him. Anyway it sounds like he has no plans of ever divorcing her. I guess he is already experiencing his own kind of death anyway. Albert will never save himself and that's too bad.

Monegasques are ridiculous to let themselves be had. You'd think there were sharper people. I have no idea why he thinks this constant reverance to SA is beneficial- I see no benefit to Monacco, for him , and outside of the hypocrisy of it meaning anything to Charlene, people were afraid that Grace being American would try to westernize Monaco too much, but at least tying to woo Americans to Monaco during the 50's when the US was on their A game economically anyway, at least that made some sense. Albert knows the fear the Monagasque had of an American princess, which is why if anyone had problems with her that was the reason, but she put it on the map at least. Albert has the opposite problem, and promoting Charlene's SA heritage in Monaco, considering she has little loyalty herself to the place is completely retarded. Please tell me who benefit's, if there is anyone who like's her (besides Albert), that is a good way to turn more Monagasque off of her?

Good to see you back Sandsla. I can imagine how frustrating it is for you to watch this soap opera. At least MyAdia is busy doing more meaningful things in life...I hope she will be back once Obama is reelected. Even though I wouldn't blame he if she doesn't come back. I am barely able to follow this sad downward spiral of "Monaco's bright future" and its "happy couple"...botox, fillers, plastic surgeries, fashion shows, shopping in Paris and Milan, vacations, posing for cameras...is that all? WOW! He didn't have to wait that long to find a wife that will do that...and even without popping up the kid or two first! He just makes himself look ridiculous and those rumors true...and on top of it she is now openly holding hands with some guy in PUBLIC like some French floozy! Now I know what he meant when he said he wants to have a "modern marriage" and his wife won't be required to do anything that was required from his mother, but can do as she likes/wishes. What a moron!!!

What a moron!!! There was a suspicious post on the sugar board about how it was going to be an open marriage early on when they announced the engagement. It made me laugh. I thought she might be able to, but Albert now married made the idea of him playing around much harder--like he didn't have enough bad press and troubles from opportunistic women and blackmailers. I don't see how he thought a wedding would help him to pursue an open relationship with other women. Charlene has been on one long perpetual vacation alone with her leaching family. Wow, the kind of attention she brings Monaco--it certainly cements the creepy image Monaco has become. Old rich men and gold digging skanks that a man has to pay to be with them. Albert promotes Charlene, more than he promotes himself as the Monarch of the country, including SA. Albert should be promoting Monaco, and Charlene should be helping to promote "Monaco" and not herself, while she is running around amusing herself.... You're right Albert said she wasn't going to be responsible for doing anything and that is exactly what she has done "nothing" except maybe embarrass everyone. If that is what he was looking for-he struck it rich there!

I tune in once in awhle to keep in touch with the ladies here, more than I really care a rat's ass about Monaco now! I knew it would be over for that place if Albert ever married Charlene--just her presence there had already struck a fatal blow to that place. But I like to tune in to see what's up with you guys! Good to see you guys checking in here!
