Prince Philip Wears a Kilt ... Totally Flashes His Dong
Prince Harry seems to have started a trend ... because it appears his grandfather just gave the world a royal wiener flash of his own.
91-year-old Prince Philip was hangin' out in a kilt during the Gathering for the Highland Games in Scotland this weekend ... when he decided to unleash his one-eyed Loch Ness Monster on the masses.
Philip was sitting near his wife, Queen Elizabeth, during the event -- the first time P.P. has been seen in public since suffering a bladder infection a few weeks ago.
God Save the Queen.

William and Kate -- Super Duper Protected in L.A.!
Prince William and new wife Kate Middleton don't need to worry about bringing protection with them when they come to Los Angeles ... because TMZ has learned the Americans have their back ... big time!
Here's the breakdown -- law enforcement sources tell TMZ the lead agency will be the Bureau of Diplomatic Security, which falls under the State Department. According to their website, "In the United States, the Bureau protects the Secretary of State, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, and foreign dignitaries below the head-of-state level who visit the United States."
On the local side, we're told the LAPD Elite Metro division will be working to not only keep the Royals safe, but on making sure crowds (including the paparazzi) behave. As TMZ first reported, cops in L.A. plan on cracking down hard on the paps during William and Kate's stay.
There will also be private security, plainclothes cops and CHP officers to help usher the Royals around town.
The only cops that won't be protecting the Royals ... are Ponch and Jon.

Cops Ready To Arrest Paps During Royals' L.A. Visit
Law enforcement from the US State Department and the LAPD are making the rounds in a fancy L.A. neighborhood, warning residents Prince William and Kate Middleton will be guests of honor at a party on their block, and to be on the lookout for paparazzi.
Two LAPD cops and a member of the State Dept. are telling residents in Hancock Park, William and Kate will be attending a bash thrown by BAFTA -- the British Academy of Film and Television Arts -- and law enforcement plans on coming down on paparazzi like a hammer, arresting anyone who trespasses on private property to get a shot.
The trio is going door-to-door in the area surrounding the British Consulate, smack in the middle of Hancock Park.
One resident was told the event would be held on July 9.
Law enforcement said they wanted residents to contact police immediately if there was any sign of photogs, and the cops would take swift action.
Kate & William The Day After
With the royal wedding finally over, Kate Middleton and Prince William -- now known as The Duchess and Duke of Cambridge -- left Buckingham Palace this morning, though they have decided not to embark on a honeymoon just yet.
Call us crazy, but we think these kids are gonna make it.
Queen Elizabeth II Underwear Up for Auction
In what has to be the unsexiest undergarment to ever become available -- a man in Florida is auctioning off a pair that once belonged to Queen Elizabeth II ... and they've been in his possession for more than 40 years!
The pair of panties came in to the possession of a famous Miami playboy named "Baron" Joseph de Bicske Dobronyi -- or Sepy, as he was known. As the story goes, Sepy got them from a friend after they were left on a private plane when the Queen visited Chile in 1968.
Sepy passed away back in June and now the estate plans on auctioning off this piece of Royal memorabilia. We're told the estate will offer them up to the same auction house that sold Queen Victoria's undies back in 2008, and they hope to get the same price -- around $9,000.
Sepy fun fact: A few scenes from the classic 1972 film "Deep Throat" were filmed in his Miami mansion.
Prince William to Seal Deal with Kate Middleton
After living together, breaking up, living together, breaking up, Prince William has decided to tie-the-knot with Kate Middleton.
The royal family announced the engagement this morning and the buzz in England is that the wedding will be at least as big as Princess Diana's. Middleton is described as upper-middle class but not top drawer in social circles.
William popped the question in October in Kenya after asking Kate's father for permission and the royal wedding is scheduled for spring or summer 2011 in London.

Queen Elizabeth's Horse Popped for Juicin'
First A-Roid ... then Manny ... now Queen Elizabeth herself has been injected into a scandal involving a performance enhancing substance.
It's all over a racehorse owned by the Queen -- officials in England claim the horse, named Moonlit Path, tested positive for a banned substance after a race in March. But here's the catch: Moonlit Path didn't even win the race -- it finished 6th.
The Queen's peeps have already come up with an excuse, claiming Moonlit Path only got the prohibited acid -- which is also used to treat excessive bleeding -- in the best interests of the "horse's welfare."
The British Horseracing Authority has already charged the horse's trainer for the incident ... so far the Queen is clean.

13 Million More Reasons Chicks Wanna Serve the Prince
The future ruler of the British Empire turned 25 today, but who gives a rat's arse about his age when, just like that, Prince William is loaded!
That's because Wills, upon crossing the 25-year-old threshold, gets the $13 million his mother Princess Diana left him in her will, plus interest and "other income accrued," according to reports. That translates into about $500,000 to $600,000 per year, on top of the reported $44,000 he makes from being a second lieutenant in the British Army.
And then, of course, there's his expense account, which his dad, Prince Charles, takes care of -- though sources who knew Wills in high school at Eton tell TMZ that he never ever had spending money, and that his subjects/pals had to fork over cash for everything.
We'd love to hear Wills' granny -- you know, the Queen -- trash-talking him today as he blows out the candles over his relatively paltry take. After all, she gets around $10 million per year in salary, and her net worth, according to Forbes, is about $500 million.
Yoko Ono Eats the Queen's Dog?
Happiness ... is a warm, tasty Corgi dog, at least for one London performance artist.
Ono was reportedly part of a canine-chewing stunt at a London radio station yesterday, reports Reuters, in which gonzo artist Mark McGowan ate cooked pieces of a Corgi, Queen Elizabeth II's dog of choice. McGowan staged the Fido-feeding (pictured above left) to protest the Queen's husband's treatment of a fox on a hunt last year. While the artist did his best to swallow a few chunks of Corgi (which had been minced with apple, onion and other seasonings), Yoko could only manage a small taste before looking "a bit strange," according to McGowan.
Performance artist McGowan is a rabid vegetarian and animal-rights activist who once notoriously ate a swan to protest the monarchy. He says that the Corgi had died at a breeding farm.
UPDATE: Yoko Ono's publicist, Elliot Mintz, tells TMZ that his client wasn't anywhere near London for the canine-feeding. He says the report about her is "untrue and absurd."
Prince William's Packin' Heat
He's not only a prince; now William, 24, is an army officer to boot.
The oldest son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana was commissioned today at the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst, England. During the ceremony the Prince handled a military assault rifle complete with a bayonet. What a badass!
William's regal grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, 80, addressed the class with her son Charles taking the salute.
Kate Middleton, the Prince's on-off girlfriend, stole attention in a red dress and oversized black hat -- possibly taking fashion tips from Posh.
Prince William's Girlfriend What a Dumbass!
Why would a girl risk the possibility of becoming Queen of England by playing hard to get?
After kicking Prince William to the curb for reportedly having a drunken make-out session with another lass, the future King of England's 4-year girlfriend, Kate Middleton, has apparently come to her senses.
According to British reports, Kate decided to take back her allegedly promiscuous prince after having a serious heart-to-heart with her mum. We're assuming the conversation went something like this: "'ELLO!?! YOU COULD BE THE BLEEDIN' QUEEN, YA TWIT!!!"
Not long after she dumped the royal hump, William and Kate were spotted necking in public again. Why is Kate playing with fire? We understand the moral rationale, but think about all those jewels ... the tiaras ... the castles! It's good to be queen!

Prince William + Babies = Cute Overload!
Prince William returned to the hospital where he was born to open a new neo-natal wing at St. Mary's in Paddington, London.
The dreamy royal took time to greet a group of new moms and their babies, even holding one of the infants, at the refurbished NHS neo-natal Winnicott Baby Unit.
Both William and brother Prince Harry were both born in a private wing of the hospital, which serves as one of the top specialists for premature babies.
When not holding babies, the future King of England has another way of passing the time -- by donning a uniform and training for the Army.
