Prince William might be the only man who gets to see Duchess of Cambridge naked, but if you’re looking for the next (best?) thing, you’ll be able to find it in New York City this week.
Katrina Darling, the 21-year-old cousin of Kate Middleton, was a working stripper in the UK until last week, when she brought her show to the United States. With uncharacteristic tact, the tabloids have taken to referring to her as a burlesque dancer, but judging by pictures snapped of her in the New York City this week, we’ll call a dog a dog… the girl’s a stripper.
She seems content to play off her second cousin once removed’s fame, though the dancer has never even met the Duchess. Darling regularly graces the stage with British Flags and a crown atop her head (which I am sure is a huge delight to the Royal Family) long known for a tradition of the upmost propriety.
Katrina recently told the New York Post that she would love for the Royal pair to come see her show…”but if they don’t, it’s not the end of the world.”
The only official response the dancer got was a fit of giggles from the royal representative who fielded The New York Post’s call.
I for one can’t blame the girl, who works a daytime job at Barclays, for capitalizing on her 15 minutes of fame. If being the second cousin once removed from royalty can grant you any perks at all, you damn well better take them for all they’re worth.
