Peter Jöback, a singer, and Oscar Nilsso, a fitness instructor, danced together at the wedding of Sweden’s Crown Princess Victoria, who married Daniel Westing, a commoner (!). At last, the caste system that celebrates the color purple is getting in touch with its roots.
whatever
her husbad is gay, too, right?
Who Cares
The groom could be a Dancing Queen….

Don’t forget her brother, Prince Carl Philip, is something of a gay icon.

Queerty, what’s with the exclamation point re the groom being a commoner? The bride’s mother was a commoner when she married the current king. Her royal aunts also married mere “misters.” In fact the whole family has numerous commoners married in. Do some research, okay?

I love the Swedish Royals! (especially Carl Phillip!!)
They’re down-to-earth, but still very elegant.
If anyone’s interested, they could watch the entire ceremony here:

I hope Victoria and Daniel have a wonderful and lasting marriage.
Daniel has such a nerdy hotness to him!
BTW, It’s Westling, not Westing. 🙂

How does one say “¡Viva la República!” in Swedish? 😛
Whoddafunk?
I watched the wedding live and it was nice to see Peter Jöback dancing with his boyfriend amidst all the royals and upper-class folk in such a conservative country (oh yes, you thought Sweden was a progressive country… try living here for a while… it’s a VERY conservative society at heart, with a few [very few] liberal pieces of frosting decorating it).
