Hold onto your hats, ’cause Kate Middleton ‘s oft-nude cousin is at it again. Katrina Darling, burlesque dancer and cousin of the Duchess of Cambridge, leaves little to the imagination in a photo spread for Loaded magazine. Or ever. Check out two sexy shots of the 22-year-old from the spread … This isn’t the first time the royal’s relative has flaunted her fabulous figure. Nor will it be the last. Let’s be honest, this has sort of become her thing. Just last year, we saw Miss Katrina Darling nude in the pages of Playboy . “I don’t feel undressed when I’m not wearing clothes,” she tells Loaded . No really. She’s all good with being naked. “I feel very comfortable.” The same can’t be said for her cousin’s topless photos , but that’s okay. She is a princess, after all, and should be entitled to some privacy. Where (and wearing what) will Katrina turn up next? Stay tuned!
Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton has been laying very low since announcing she is pregnant, but not so low that she’s cut out her morning Starbucks run. With little fanfare, she exited Kensington Palace for a very hush-hush walk through Kensington Gardens with dog Lupo followed by a trip to the coffee chain! Escorted by a security guard, the 31-year-old Duchess “looked beautiful,” according to an onlooker … to the surprise of pretty much no one on Earth. “Her hair was done nicely and she had a scarf, lovely long coat and boots on … she was wrapped up warm, so I couldn’t see the bump,” the observer adds. It’s unclear just how much she’s showing at this stage, but don’t expect a lot of splashy celebrity gossip magazine photo shoots or Instagram updates. Anyway, as the security guard waited outside with Lupo, Prince William’s wife went inside and placed her order herself: Her decaf drink, plus a cookie. Thus armed with provisions, the expectant royal took Lupo’s leash back from the security guard (the pooch is “so cute and well-behaved,” the spy says), and carried on. “She’s a regular,” a Starbucks staffer says of the Duchess. “Kate was smiling,” the observer continues. Sadly, no Kate Middleton photos were taken, but she “paid with a Starbucks card, which she swiped herself.” Royals. They’re just like us.
It looks like Kim Kardashian isn’t the only person upset over the new Instagram Terms of Service agreement. Southern California-based law firm Finkelstein and Krinsk has filed a class action lawsuit against the photo-sharing service, referring its altered policy to federal court in hopes of barring any changes to users’ contracts. “Instagram is taking its customers property rights while insulating itself from all liability,” says the firm in the filing. “In short, Instagram declares that ‘possession is nine tenths of the law and if you don’t like it, you can’t stop us.'” Controversy has arisen over the recently-released policy, which clients have interpreted as giving Instagram the right to sell one’s images to advertisers and third parties, royalty-free. Instagram co-founder Kevin Systrom has released a statement that attempts to quell these concerns, but celebrities such as Kardashian have threatened to leave the service unless the policy changes are revoked. But this isn’t good enough for the law firm. “The purported concessions by Instagram in its press release and final version of the new terms were nothing more than a public relations campaign to address public discontent,” the complaint reads. Facebook, which owns Instagram, has responded to the class action suit, deeming it “without merit” and adding: “We will fight it vigorously.” Any Instagram user in the state of California – are you reading this, Kim? – is eligible to join the class action.
From supermodels to singers, and actors to politicians, it’s that time of year once again. Time to crown the prestigious, arbitrary THG Celebrity of the Year, that is. Who will be our 6th Annual recipient? THG is counting down the top 10 stars of 2012, starting with #10 Adam Levine, Honey Boo Boo at #9, Kim Kardashian at #8, and President Obama at #7. Kate Upton came in at #6, and Justin Bieber #5. Worthy nominees, all of them. Now it’s time for 2012 Celebrity of the Year Finalist #4: Kate Middleton! It’s been quite a year for Kate, and not just because SHE’S HAVING A BABY!!!!!! Did we mention Kate Middleton is pregnant? You probably heard, if not. Or figured it out based on the exclamations of joy above. She’s due in mid-2013! Of course, even that development was marked by tragedy, one Kate had nothing to do with, after the Duchess was hospitalized with acute morning sickness. A prank call to the hospital where she was staying led a nurse to take her own life after unwittingly spilling the beans on Kate’s condition to a couple of DJs. This wasn’t the first controversy involving Kate this year, either. The publication of Kate Middleton topless photos , taken from a great distance during the couple’s holiday in France, shocked the nation and world. The Royal Family threatened those responsible, but the damage was done, as Middleton’s (enviable) body was displayed for the entire Internet to see. On a happier note, Kate continued to come into her own with solo appearances on behalf of various charities, all the while looking stylish as ever. In July, she and her husband Prince William also served as British Olympic ambassadors in their awesome country, and who better could you pick? Between Kate, William and Prince Harry naked , it was one revealing year for the royal fam – but each of them remain wildly popular with the public. For good reason, too. As far as celebrities go, it’s hard to think of a much better role model for young girls than Kate the Great, the People’s Princess! What will 2013 bring for the gorgeous Duchess? Who the heck knows. Actually we do know. A royal baby obviously! What should she name it? Take a look at some potential Kate Middleton baby names and weigh in! Then share your guesses on who will be #3 in our countdown!

The 11-time All Star’s divorce proceedings have shed some light on Iverson’s dismal situation.

Is Kate Middleton knocked up with the Royal seed? According to RadarOnline reports : Prince William and Kate Middleton will be making a BIG announcement next month, says a friend of Kate’s, sparking intense renewed speculation that a Royal baby is on the way. Kate, 30, is ready to share “wonderful, happy news” next month, says Jessica Hay in an interview with New Idea magazine. Hay, described as a close friend of Kate’s, tells the mag: “They’re planning to make an announcement in December.” Hay attended the Royal couple’s wedding reception and shared a school dormitory with Kate at 14. She notes that her friend has gained a little bit of weight recently and that “William and Kate are focused on starting a family.” William, 30, previously told Katie Couric that his time in the Royal Air Force may be drawing to a close because of the pressures of his “other life” and added, “more importantly, I’d like to have children.” While Kate will be happy with either a boy or girl, Hay says the Duchess of Cambridge is secretly hoping for a boy first and then a girl. “It seems very traditional but of course they’ll be happy with two boys or two girls, they don’t want more. “They’ve discussed it endlessly and don’t want to be older parents.” Pregnancy headlines would be a welcome relief for Kate after her top off-photo ordeal and the international attention it drew. The pictures were snapped while Kate and William vacationed in France. If it’s true, this is big news! Do you care about when these Royals conceive? GSI Media
