Last year didn't Albert only take charlene to the palace "tea" or "cocktail" party? I don't remember him taking her out with the "stars". Seems like this year is a repeat of last year.

She was there last year but this year no Charlene.

last year she was only at the palace, not the gala. She sported a Morticia look.

here is a video of Eric close from the festival. He claims that it's clean... ok that tells us he hasn't been walking around or the US is much dirtier then Europe. My bet is on the first as I have seen the limos that are used and they don't look so green to me. http://www.gala.fr/

Well, Getty has pictures of the Galla and Albert took Charlene. When I noticed that MEl B was the big star for the opening pictures I realize why he took Charlene. HE normally does not drag her to these awards gala that have headline stars because the gala will get the press. I think it must have been a slow press week for he Festival if he drags Charlene to speculate upcoming wedding rumours whenever she goes to an event that he never took her before.

Charlene really does not have a very feminine figure. She's straight like a plank. Also, if you look at some of the close-ups of her face, it seems that she forgot the pancake make-up. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I'm sure when we see it on the cover of Bunte next week it will be glossed over.

looks like a funeral.

Paca dear, can't you just see all that pride, happiness, and LOVE that's just oozing from Albert's face as he holds onto Charlene? I can't either. Doesn't reach his eyes Charlene, doesn't reach his eyes - it's not happening sweetheart. Pull up the pictures when he was with some of those starlets at these award galas - he was beaming. Remember Rihanna?

However, I read from the powers that be that Albert & Charlene don't show their dying love for each other in public b/c they are respectable adults who like to be more reserve and keep their emotions to themselves. So, there you have it. They are definitely happy and in love, otherwise they would have broken up long ago. Expect a wedding soon. Oh, and anybody who believes anything other than this gospel are both jealous and haters and perhaps need to get a life.

Well, that settles it, I've been saying lately I need to get a life!!! But I do enjoy watching the other royals with their girlfriends express affection without displaying behavior unacceptable to adults. Also we've been saying how happy Albert looks when she's not with him so now we know his office definitely reads us. If he's going to marry her, he must be quite pleased with himself why I don't know because he's basically put her out there as a kept woman.
