asker If William and Kate attended the Academy Awards, they'd be lambasted for being all about celebrities, blah blah blah. But I guess no one thinks that about the Grimaldis, because they are always all about celebrities. It goes to show that there is one set of rules for British royalty and another set of rules for Monaco.

Well, the Grimaldis at least have two potential connections to the Academy Awards.  As already mentioned, the film Grace of Monaco is in pre-production.  I’m sure the Princely Family will be involved with fact-checking and approval for the film.  Secondly, Prince Albert’s mother was an Academy Award winner.
