 figureheads Obamas Not Invited to Wedding of People They Don’t Know at All 
 
 Huge controversy! Barack and Michelle Obama will not be invited to the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, two British people they have probably never met before. "Harry, 26, said he was "enormously pleased that [his brother] finally popped the question," according to The Telegraph Harry is in Germany to accept an award for his charity work in Lesotho.
– Drama alert: The Obamas have been “snubbed” and will not score an invite to Prince William’s wedding. Because Wills isn’t an heir to the throne quite yet, his wedding isn’t a state occasion; thus he and Kate Middleton don’t feel pressured to invite more than a few heads of state, the Daily Mail reports. How shocking, writes Dan Amira in New York, that the Obamas are being excluded from the nuptials of “two British people they have probably never met before. Will the alliance hold?” (On a related note, click to see how Prince Harry feels about his new sister.)
