neadodsYes, I got up to watch it. It's news that doesn't involve bombs; celebrity that doesn't involve being a drunken, stoned Hollywood has-been. That's the kind of history I like to witness.
The dress was perfect. Streamlined, flattering - and classic enough that nobody's going to be pointing and laughing 20 years later, plus it'll look good on most of the body types that'll be emulating it.
And my favorite crowd moment? The sign being waved that said "Checkmate, Kate, You've Taken the King."

It would be. (I thought the same about most of the hats, sometimes even before "That's so ugly." "How rude - nobody behind you will be able to see a thing!")
But I'm glad they got the sign up on TV. Hopefully they lowered it right away after!
