The British tabloid press has been endless Diana stories for weeks now. For the life of me I cannot wrap my head around mourning the death of someone who I didn't know, shared nothing in common with and didn't do anything that resonated with me. I was shocked when she died, because you just weren't expecting a Royal to go in a car crash, but believe me I was over it well before the funeral. Like the same day. Let the people who knew her mourn. It really p***** me off to see grown men crying in the streets on her funeral day. And why they think she needs 20 year anniversary coverage escapes me. Usually when it's the anniversary of a celeb's death, there's a little piece in the paper, maybe an article or two, and that's it. And she didn't even have any records out!

''People say, 'oh, The Princess Diana Memorial Fountain..it's what she would have wanted'..no, it isn't..what she would have wanted was to have not been killed, and in death, not to have become the unwitting receptacle for the hysterical, over-emotional, shrieking grief of ****s.

Is it true that the studio had to change the name of the movie "The Madness of King George III" to "The Madness of King George" because when they tested it with an American audience most of those who watched it wanted to know why they'd never heard of the first two films in the series?

I still remember when Diana was expecting and the journalists were all trying to guess what the baby would be named. One radio station in San Diego, California held a contest. The winning entry? "Up Chuck and Di."

Good luck with walking after three hours on the throne.  You might want to have some reading matter handy for the other 2hrs and 55 minutes too.

I remember reading that in the newspaper when the movie first came out. If it was in the paper, it must be true.
