Read this: On what planet is Kate Middleton a "commoner"? Oh, right: England
Look, a new picture of Kate! With her fiance at some Christmas gala in England on Saturday. (Sang Tan/AP)
Kate Middleton is fabulously rich and beautiful and privileged -- but in England, she's technically a "commoner." Our colleague Anthony Faiola dissects the tensions and class-consciousness aroused by her engagement to Prince William in the U.K., "a society where status is measured in birthright and breeding," and people still snark about how her (now fabulously rich) mother used to be a flight attendant. We here at the Post use the occasion to display even more photos of Kate Middleton.
How did 50 Cent get so rich (and not die trying)? Dan Charnas traces that insane Vitaminwater deal. (BTW, did you know Fiddy is a teetotaler?)
Our critics declare the best of 2010 (music, movies, fashion, art, memes, etc.).
