Congratulations to Prince William & Kate Middleton!

Now that my blog redesign is nearly finished, I finally have the chance to congratulate the recently engaged Prince William and Kate Middleton.  This adorable couple that go beyond socialite status into the realm of royalty, are surprisingly down to earth.  Much can be said about Miss Middleton’s Sloane Ranger style inspired by the boutiques of London’s Chelsea district. As an American fashionista, I have become obsessed with Kate’s glamorous hats that the royal wedding has yet to cross my mind.  Next time I attend a formal event, I will be sure to follow in Kate Middleton’s footsteps with an eye-catching hat.

However, as this newly engaged beauty has already discovered, haute is the head that wears the hat and heavy is the head that wears the crown.  Kate must really love with William to put up with all of the uncalled for cruelty of the British press and constant comparisons to the late Princess Diana.  As any great public figure should, Kate has handled the scrutiny of the public with a form of class that shines even brighter than her stunning engagement ring.  Hearts may be breaking all over the world, but I could not be happier for this lovely couple.  The only thing that is getting to me is that neither of them are on Twitter.  I don’t know about you, but I am craving some live tweeting straight from Buckingham Palace.

Oh Sookie! Get me on TV!

Vampire or not, Mondays will suck the life out of you. This week Snoop Dogg has become a true inspiration to aspiring socialites and aspiring actors everywhere. When this die-hard rapper, gangsta, and True Blood fanatic asked HBO if he could guest star on their hit vampire series, he was turned down. Instead of getting mad, Snoop got creative and made a hilarious rap video dedicated to the telepathic main character, Sookie Stackhouse played by Anna Paquin. With all of the effort Snoop has put into this video, my favorite being the backup dancers dressed as Sookie outside Merlotte’s, they should at least make him an extra.

For those aspiring to greatness, the surfacing of this video has numerous implications. I personally would love to be on Gossip Girl, Greek, or in the next Twilight Saga film: Breaking Dawn. Though I am also a die-hard True Blood fan, I am not sure if I can do a southern accent. The beauty of social media is that anyone now has the ability to become famous by simply uploading a video or starting a Twitter account. You don’t have to be on The Hills to be a reality star. You can even gain movie star status without ever stepping onto a movie set. So stop eating humble pie and go on a diet because shameless self-promotion is the fastest way to success. When it comes down to it, you are your best and most of the time your only advocate.
