I think I said this last year but I'm going to say it again. I prefer the actual Nobel Peace Prize presentation over the Nobel prizes done in Sweden. I find the dresses of the royal Swedish ladies and the feel of their Nobel night to be too much like a Hollywood award show.

I quite agree...The Queen looked so beautiful with that NEW dress...And the King's (candy cane) tie suits him alot, although he wore it last year on the same occasion, but no one would compare it to the Queen's (yellow nightmare), the tie suits him too well, regardless to the number of times he wears it. As for CP Mette-Marit, the pale colour suited her well, although it was a little tight, but her hat was quite ugly, it looked like a small pillow sticking on the back of her head, but her hair looked great, no hair roots that needed to be dyed. As for CP Haakon, he looked great, as always.
The thing that I disliked was the whispering part of CP Mette-Marit...In my opinion, it wasn't cute at all and it wasn't a proper thing to do too, it looked more like a gossip to me, as in here:- Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony 2008 - Pictures - Zimbio

So now that Bono's won the Man of Peace prize...here is my personal story about him. My daughter is at school with the twin daughters of a lucky sperm billionaire. We were going to Nutcracker in NYC with them. The mother says 'Oh we keep a little apartment in NYC, you should come for lunch before' and gives me the address. We find the apartment building, which turns out to be directly on Central Park West, in a building whose name you would recognise. The Door Man checks his list and motions me to the elevator, saying 18th floor. What apartment number, I ask. Door man says, there is only one apartment on each floor. OK. I get on the elevator and a late 40s man steps on with us. We smile and make small talk until he gets of on 17. Now I'm pretty sure I've pegged him, but I ask our hostess. 'Oh yes' says she 'Bono lives right below us when he's in town'.....
