It seems there may be more scandalous photos of Kate Middleton on the way. Images that might even be more intimate and revealing than the ones recently published in the French magazine Closer -- which showed a topless Duchess. I'll bet that there are going to be a whole slew of people willing to pay to see them ... and it seems as though the editor of an Italian gossip magazine is taking the same bet!

From Selena Gomez's Funny or Die skit to Jimmy Fallon's karaoke slow-jams, Fifty Shades of Grey has already gotten the parody treatment ten times over. It really was only a matter of time until a truly hilarious parody in complete book form emerged. And "Fanny Merkin," aka comedic writer Andrew Shaffer's, Fifty Shames of Earl Grey, which has just arrived in bookstores, seems to fit the bill perfectly.

The book follows the love story between Bill Gates' adoptive son, Earl Grey, and an "unsuspecting virgin" named Anna Steal. While Christian Grey is into classical music, fine wine, rich boy toys like his helicopter Charlie Tango and his boat, and sadomasochistic sex, Earl Grey loves ... Nickelback, Tom Cruise, Olive Garden, and BDSM, which in his world stands for "Bards, Dragons, Sorcery, and Magick." What the ... ?! Ha!

Oh, but it gets even better ...

All of us can recall how wacky people got leading up to this century's royal wedding extravaganza. But about 30 years prior, the whole world was completely, crazy obsessed with Lady Diana and Prince Charles's 1981 nuptials. Everyone wanted their own piece of the fairy tale action. Literally. And one woman took it to what some might consider an extreme.

Rosemarie Smith, the mother of a Buckingham Palace maid, claims to have swiped a piece of toast from the breakfast of Prince Charles the day he married Di. She was visiting her daughter at the time on July 29, 1981. And the toast -- believed to have been well-preserved, because it had not been buttered and the toasting had dried it out (hah) -- just garnered the U.S. equivalent of $360 at auction! How totally weird, right?!

Imagine you are newly married, madly in love, and strolling hand in hand on the sun-kissed isle of north Seychelles. Ah, what a romantic, exotic, and uber-private honeymoon moment. Wait just a gosh darned minute! This is Prince William and Kate Middleton we're talking about. Let's recap: You're strolling hand in hand, and a paparazzo is staked out on a sandy dune with a long-lens camera. He then sells your moments of  honeymoon bliss to a magazine for about one million dollars. Yep, that sounds more like it.

Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee is a major series of events for her majesty as she celebrates 60 years on the throne, and the river pageant on Sunday was a powerful and beautiful highlight of the celebration. The River Thames was an amazing site as 1,000 sailboats, rowboats, and other ships set sail for a seven-mile flotilla.

The big anticipated event for most of us watching, however, was what Pippa Middleton would wear, of course. Would her bum be on display and distract from the matters at hand as the royals reportedly feared? 

Ah, the life of a prince. You live in castles. You have riches beyond belief. You can also choose any lassie in the land to marry. Provided your family approves of her, of course. But there's some downside, too. Paparazzi follow you everywhere. And, oh yeah, there's huuuuuuuge pressure that your marriage succeed because, well, your parents' marriage failed miserably and everyone looks to you and your new wife to be different. Oh, the pressure. And Prince William was apparently feeling it because a biographer says that Wills was so worried that he might cheat on his girlfriend, Kate, that he was reluctant to get married.

Be honest: Whenever you think of Queen Elizabeth, you don't think of a warm and fuzzy ol' granny. That woman is a monarch. She means business. But, you know, to Prince William, she is HRH Grandma. And having a grandmother with that much power has its perks! Especially when it comes to a wedding, which -- even when it's not a royal one -- can get so out of hand super fast.

In a new ITV1 documentary about Queen Elizabeth that airs next month, Wills opens up about how when he first started planning his wedding to Kate Middleton, he was handed the original royal wedding guest list (by whom is not clear) with 777 names on it ... and apparently, "not one person I knew or Catherine knew." How horrific! And we thought the royal wedding was all fun and games. Ha!

So how did Wills cope?
