Squandrous

So here’s my little celebrity story from my recent trip to London. Because, after all, what’s a trip to London without a celebrity story, right?

I was on Kensington High Street a few days ago when I saw a girl walking down the street in my direction with about three or four people taking photos of her. Not a swarm of paparazzi, but still more attention than a normal citizen would warrant. As she got closer, I realized that it was Kate Middleton, former girlfriend of Prince William.

As most of you know, the Wills and Kate breakup was highly publicized and covered the front pages of newspapers here in London for days. The media was quick to portray her as a plain, working-class girl that wasn’t good enough for the prince, and published several unflattering photos of her as well.

What they failed to point out was that Kate Middleton is stunningly gorgeous. I’m not kidding. Just passing her on the street took my breath away (yes, I know that happens a lot to me, but still) and though I didn’t stop to say hullo, I feel I did my part by purposely bumping into one of those annoying photographers.
