Helen Mirren excited about royal wedding

Helen Mirren is getting excited about the British Royal Wedding. The ‘Arthur’ star can’t wait for April 29th when Prince William will marry Kate Middleton, and – like millions of women all over the world – can’t wait to find out what dress she has chosen for the ceremony.

Helen – who won an Oscar for her portrayal of William’s grandmother Queen Elizabeth in ‘The Queen’ – told E! News: “I’m sure I will when I learn when it’s on – I want to see what she’s wearing and see that lovely coach come out.”

The prince and his new wife are to ride in an open top carriage from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace after their ceremony, with thousands expected to turn out in the British capital to try and catch a glimpse of them on their way.

Meanwhile a host of other Hollywood stars have been weighing in on which designer they would like to see Kate dressed by for the big day.

Actress Cate Blanchett told the BBC: “I would love to say the late Alexander McQueen and now Sarah who’s running the operation do something. So see something edgy would be great, get rid of the feathers, come in yellow.”

Hollywood star Rose McGowan picked a French designer, saying: “Oscar de la Renta, but I’m sure she’ll have to pick somebody British, the queen may be mad otherwise.”

Meanwhile singer Kat Graham would like to see Kate dressed by offbeat, futuristic designer Thierry Mugler.

She said: “I’d choose Thierry Mugler, because he would make her fabulous and spaced out. I want to see her like worked out, but I’m sure she’ll be a little more restrained.”
