You are definitely wrong. Not all women are taken up by princesses or celebrities.

Some are as well as some men. Cannot say I care much what Prince Charles does anymore but I did really like Princess Diana. She was a very positive influence on many people all over the world. Diana, Princess of Wales | The Royal Family

That is true.

I am not taken up by most Hollywood celebrities. I can't even find a late night talk host that I like since Johnny Carson.

But I like me a good princess, when I run across one.

I follow maybe 2000 Hollywood or elsewhere celebrities on Facebook but mostly this is just because I am so into movies and TV shows of late. They have been so very interesting.

I usually read at night so do not watch any of these late shows. Do tape Saturday Night Live and watch that when I get around to it.

I don't understand why the British people still put up with the Royal family. I understand that they were once monarchs and gave the country up to democratic rule, but that was ages ago. Isn't it time to end the whole charade?

Funny thing is that a lot of my British friends are very proud of the Queen and the rest of them.

At least the elected officials are accountable for doing something.
I'm not sure who you mean by friends of politicians, but it is important that the first lady is protected. And as I'm sure you know every first lady has done charitable work and promotes a cause. They also plan White House function and perform other tasks. It's not as though they do no work whatsoever.

But I can see your point where some of the first ladies in the past have had enormous staffs. I'm glad to see that the current first lady has cut her staff down to a more reasonable number.

They still have a lot of land and the like. The people of the UK seem to really like their traditions.

The only celebrity worth following is Chuck Norris.
When Chuck misspells a word, all dictionaries have to be updated.
Chuck once hit 11 out of 10 targets with 9 bullets.
Not only can Chuck walk on water, he can swim on land.
Chuck can slam a revolving door.
Chuck has a bearskin rug...it ain't dead...just afraid to move.

I don't be understand in this day and age why there are royality or religious cults. I guess the human mentality still gullible and weak.

I have kind of forgotten about Chuck Norris. Did really like Walker, Texas Ranger and that blonde with the husky voice was very fun to watch.

I hope he had her sign a Pre Nuptial Agreement. I think she just wants a Castle for herself when this marriage ends. I wish them Good Health and Happiness but truly couldn't give a Fig Newton about the whole deal.
