I would not trust those rumours, especially not if they'se said the things Lena said in the post before me - AND in high school I had a friend of a friend who went to the same school as Princess Madeleine (Enskilda Gymnasiet), in her parrallell class. And she once told me a bit about how it was and so on, and it was not like these things they said on Passagen. This person I'm referring to said that Madeleine was a bit shy, tried her best with the studies although she had to fight for her grades harder than her fellow classmates (and it's a really competitive school) - and that she kept very much to her little group of friends. No one could enter their world, but she was friendly to people - but they all knew the barrier.

But maybe it´s true...I mean the little stories about Madeleine (not the abortion)
true... things like abortion etc is obvious not true...
But seeing Madeleine at the cinema or at Sture compagniet doesnt seems like that impossible :)

Yes, you´re right...and this shouldn´t have been criticism :) We´re all old and mature enough to take this comments with a "grain of salt". Some may be true, and some reflects the own view of the people, who have told this story (to their friends). For example...I wouldn´t describe Madeleine as "little" (neither in the sense of "petite" nor in the sense of "very (childlike) young" and "sweet"...but on the other hand I wasn´t in the cinema with her maybe she looks there different ) When she was there... a cinema is a very "neutral" place, where everybody can go...so maybe the person have seen a person, who has just looked like Madeleine?

some gossip from www.passagen.se

My friends bumps into her all the time...
One night at Sturecompagniet the princess accidentally step on my friends toe and she immediately said "sorry". My friend thought the princess seemed nice and met her again at the dance floor. She was just like any other girl that time.

An other friend of mine went to the same class as Madeleine at Enskilda gymnasiet. At first she didn´t wanted to tell me anything about Madeleine but later she told me that once, during a class trip they had been at a strip club... So she isn´t as innocent as one think she is :)

One of my co.workers told me that a friend of hers went to the same art class as Madeleine at Stockholm university.
Madeleine always used to sneak into the classroom at the last minute and always sat in the back of the room and she never said anything.
When the class was over, she disapeared, quick.
Once my friend read a paper Madeleine wrote and he said that he never had read anything that bad in his whole life.

Another girlfriend of mine saw Madeleine at the cinema last week and she was really pretty and beautiful. Very thin and petite.

I guess no school. But it could have been, that the had an evening "off" during a longer trip (a week or so) and that they have then decided to go there. To have an evening off isn´t that unusual. When we´ve made longer trips during high school (To Rome + Florence, or skiing trips) we could also go to bars.
Of course I don´t want to hint, that she was at a strip club! But I would say it´s possible.

hopefully none :)
But as Lena said, they could have been there on one of their "evenings off"

But I think we should take all this gossip with a pinch of salt (do you say that in english? we do in swedish anyway :) and just read it for fun and nothing else

Lately I came across an old discussion :

Yennie in February 2004:
Quote:
But I think we should take these stories with "en nypa salt" (dont know how to translate that into english)
Dennis on that in February 2004:
Quote:
"en nypa salt"
A grain of salt. Used in English quite often.
Sorry, when I sound now like a "smart ass", but I just wanted to show, how much you can forget when you´re an very active poster It´s the same for me...today I´ve read in an old Daniel-thread...and it seems that I´m repeating myself a lot

But to get back to topic, yes we should take it with "en nypa salt"...especially since they now start to assume/claim, that Madeleine is powdering her little nose with a very "special white powder".

What do you mean exactly?
I´ve refered on this swedish gossip-board of which Yennie had the report about the encounters with Madeleine. And now there a poster on this board has said that he has heard that Madeleine is sometimes a little bit powdered around her nose (I´m not 100% sure about the meaning...I think they´ve meant cocaine, but maybe this is also a swedish saying and simply means, that she´s arrogant...maybe the Swedes can explain...the original sentence: "Hörde i helgen att prinsessan ibland är lite väl pudrad runt näsan. Kan det stämma?")

haha, you´re right Lena! Now I remember that we talked about the salt before :) "must remember a agrain of salt, must remember a grain of salt..."

I think the poster is refering to cocaine to. I have never heard anyone use that expression about something else than drugs

I think and personally take all these incredibly trashy gossip claims as just that - gossip!!!! People love to gossip about this sphere of people that they can never be a part of - and I think these people belong to that very group. I think all of this just sounds rediculous. The only thing I believe is that she is friendly to people who bump into her in clubs or shops - but that's all. The friend of a friend that I told you about in my earlier post (who went to Madeleine's parallell class) is a very reliable and credible source - she has belonged to this kind of world all her life and knows what she is talking about. The majority of students at Enskilda Gymnasiet comes from privileged backgrounds, but there is also a group that doesn't - they get in based on high grades and being achievers (as the school is, if not the best, one of the top schools in the country). But even so, Madeleine was very careful who she mixed with in school, and kept to her little group of friends. And I think all this makes her and her little clique the perfect target to gossip about...

While searching for pics of Madeleine´s graduation I´ve found this information on Katrine´s website (www.princess-madeleine.com): The Princess is currently studing at Stockholms University. She's been going through different art courses and written a big paper on Princess Eugenie who lived from 1830 to 1890.

Who was princess Eugenie and what´s her connection to arts? And why does Madeleine write in her basic courses about a princess? 20 points course in
