Doing her part to validate the UK’s image of Americans as uncultured slobs, Demi Moore reportedly wore a t-shirt and jeans at a lavish birthday celebration for Princess Beatrice at Windsor Castle recently:
Beatrice, the daughter of the Duke and Dutchess of York, had an elegant masked ball, estimated to cost more than $725,000, at Windsor Castle celebrating her 18th birthday. The three hundred guests — who included assorted lords and ladies as well as celebs such as Elton John and model Elle Macpherson — were asked to dress in period costumes from 1888 (Beatrice was born in August, 1988).
Moore showed up in a stunning, white Victorian ball gown but mid-party, she snuck away to slip into something more comfortable. “She went upstairs to change, then she came back a few minutes later in a black T-shirt, jeans and black pumps,” a source told the London Mirror, which reports that Moore ditched the gown because she wanted to boogie nimbly with her hubby, Ashton Kutcher.
Okay, so clearly it was the influence of Michael Kelso that led to the unpardonable fashion faux pas…but still: Jeans. Among royalty.
Don’t you think even Kelso would have known enough to at least wear one of his dressier tank tops and a decent pair of chinos to a royal function, the better to impress his British-babe hostess?
