rags to riches

Contribution by Stevie Kirby.

I was watching direct tv and while I was flipping through the channels, I saw a movie that I loved when I was about sixteen. I caught myself watching “The Princess Diaries” until midnight when I should have been sleeping. Anne Hathaway doesn’t look much different. She looked mature in her late teens and looks just about the same today. Rags to riches stories usually put me in a good mood. I think it is because when we see a rags to riches story we can imagine how wonderful it would be to be in the undiscovered princess’ shoes. Suddenly, you are entitled to a life of leisure, luxury, and posh couture. I think that being able to imagine yourself in the same situation is the allure of the Kate Middletonstory. I read on one of the many celebrity trash websites that I follow that Anne Hathaway is being considered for the role of Kate Middleton in a major motion picture production of Will and Kate’s romance. Imagine that—Anne has the experience, she’s already played the part!
