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.”

Kate Almost Has Marilyn Moment!

The Duchess of Cambridge made a visit to the charity, Place2Be, to aid their efforts to fight cyberbullying. She looked great in a Orla Kiely skirt, the second day in a row the Duchess has worn the Irish contemporary designer, and a MaxMara jacket. Even though the wind was whipping, the Duchess was able to avoid a full blown Marilyn Monroe moment and avoided a serious wardrobe malfunction.

According to E! News, a slice of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s 2011 wedding cake was auctioned off by Julien’s Auctions for a whopping $4,160! The eight-tier traditional spiced fruit cake was created by pastry chef Fiona Cairns and included raisins, walnuts, cherries, lemon, cherries, grated orange, and French Brandy. As is customary, the Cambridges served the top tier following Prince George’s christening. As Cairns told Hello!, “We were always told that the cake would be saved for the future so we did assume [it would be served for their firstborn child’s christening]…It’s always been a tradition and that’s why the cake was fruitcake, because after 30 months, it’s even more delicious.”

As she does with British tabloid stories, the Duchess of Cambridge’s sister rode the waves from Lymington on the south coast to the Isle of Wight. She set sail with four-time Olympic gold medalist Sir Ben Ainsile on a JP Morgan-branded launch. Still can’t seem to find a reason for Pippa’s participation but here are some pictures from the event…
