Crush of the Week: Kate Middleton, Rollerskating Queen

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Kate Middleton, girlfriend of England's Prince William, hosted a rollerskating fundraiser the other night in which she took a spill in her yellow hotpants, legwarmers, and bright pink rollerboots. 

The UK press called her outfit "garish." In fact, her outfit is the main reason she's our crush of the week...

(In a way, these pictures remind us of another roller skating accident and fall, one that involved our very own Scanner Emily. She responds:
"Awesome. Though my outfit was much better!")

The event sought to raise 100,000 British p for the cause of Tom's Ward at the Children's Hospital in Oxford, and featured such guests and friends of Middleton's as Holly Branson, who almost stole the spotlight-- and our Crush of the Week title-- in this outfit.

While the Queen and her underlings may (allegedly) grumble about the possibility of Middleton's becoming part of the Royal Family, at least Prince William is sharp enough to realize what he has on his hands...
