Morrissey Slams Royals and Middletons in Most Recent Blog Post

The former frontman for the Smiths, Morrissey, has yet again slammed the Royal family and also took a shot at Pippa Middleton in his blog over the weekend. As reported by E! News, he wrote:

“Similarly, on October 5, the Daily Mail newspaper gave us all an ‘amusing’ report of thickwit Pippa Middleton laughing as she stood over 50 birds shot dead by her friends and herself after a ‘busy day’s shooting…

“We are reminded by the Daily Mail that Middleton is a ‘socialite’, which tells us that she is privileged and can more-or-less kill whatever she likes—and, therefore she does. The sick face of modern Britain, Pippa Middleton will kill deer, boar, birds—any animal struggling to live, or that gets in her socialite way.

“This is because her sister is, of course, Kate, who herself became ‘royal’ simply by answering the telephone at the right time, and this association allows Pippa’s kill, kill, kill mentality to be smilingly endorsed by the British print media, to which only the mentally deficient could join in with the laughter.”

And he went on to say:

“Speech is a question of rhythm, and even this the Queen has failed to master in her very lengthy lifetime of being unable to address a nation without auto-cue. Is she incapable of speaking directly from the heart? That the future of the monarchy rests on the natural idiocy of Harry, zombified William and airhead Kate, is quite frightening. We, the British public, are trapped.”

Pippa Middleton’s Unusual Christening Gift

The Daily Mail reports that Prince George’s aunt gave him and his parents quite the gift on his christening…his hands and feet cast in silver. People also ran a story on the interesting gift regarding how the sculptures are made –

“According to Wrightson and Platt, the company that makes the sculptures, it takes 30 seconds to make the mold by placing the baby’s feet in a jelly-like mixture of water and a seaweed-based powder (which is a long time to stop a newborn from wriggling around).”

Pippa Middleton is reported to have spent $11,000 on the gift.
