Kate Middleton tops Tatler’s social list
Last year it was political whizz-kid David Cameron and his wife, Samantha. This year it’s the world’s most famous multi-dumpee/undumpee, Kate Middleton.
Yes, it’s Tatler’s list of the “most wanted on the social scene” time again. Yipee!
Kate is described by the magazine as a “sexy siren”, now “super in-demand” owing to her “suddenly single” status. They’re obviously not reading Royal Anecdotes.
It seems she has only appeared once before in the Hot 100, in 2004, back in a dismal 12th place. That you’ll remember was when she was just rumoured to be Prince William’s girlfriend.
Tatler says, “Even if she’s back with William now, her position is assured. You can’t get much higher than No 1.”
The Tatler Top Ten
1: Kate Middleton
2: Tony and Cherie Blair
3: Jemima Khan
4: Elizabeth Hurley and Arun Nayar
5: Lord Rothschild
6: Sophia Hesketh and Robie Uniacke
7: Cartier’s Arnaud and Carla Bamberger
8: Lord Ed Spencer-Churchill and Petrina Khashoggi
9: Elisabeth Murdoch and Matthew Freud
10: Mischa Barton
The surprise in there is newly office-free, Tony Blair, in second place with wife, Cherie, known to some as “the wicked witch”. Who on earth would want them round to dinner? Tatler obviously agrees, “And now for the great cash-in. Tony and Shezza are up for anything — except dinner with Gordon.”
On a Royal note, Camilla and the Prince of Wales, who are back in fashion with the green lobby, are in the top 100.
I can’t say I would want to invite many of the others to dinner. At least Kate Moss and abominable Pete have dropped out altogether.
Good for Kate! From the photographs I see of her, I think she seems lovely.

Kate rocks. He’d be mad not to marry her.

Interesting that while Tatler lists Elizabeth Hurley and her new husband, Arun Nayar, it merely lists Jemima Khan and not Jemima’s longtime boyfriend, actor Hugh Grant. At any rate, I am happy to see Kate coming into her own and being recognized for her star power.

Kate is just a stunning girl — one thing I like especially about her — unlike the other It Girls/celebutantes, Kate has not had plastic surgery to enhance her looks - no botox to make her wide-eyed, no collagen to give her a sexy pout, no cheek implants to add shadows to her face, no breast implants to give her unnatural curves on a slender body.
So she looks beautiful without looking like all the others, nothing plastic about her.
Simply stunning … beautiful but not perfect … in a way, that’s perfect for right now.

Good Lord Alicia - I would hope someone so young wouldn’t feel she needed all that done! But sadly, I know too many young women (and some men) who are already attractive feel they need to ‘enhance’ themselves.
Kate is a very beautiful young lady.

On the Outside - my point is that she doesn’t, but some many young celebrities have all this work done and end up all looking very similar.
