Kate Middleton is such a style star — and there’s no doubt about that. We love that for her latest outing, she took the time to color coordinate her outfit with the Queen’s. She puts family before fashion, and she still looks fabulous! Can you imagine Kate and the Queen giggling in a large dressing room while browsing through racks and racks of clothes?

While that scenario probably didn’t happen, they still look pristine, as per usual. How cute are they in their brocade coats? As per usual, Kate pulled a repeat, wearing a DAY Birger et Mikkelsen coatdress, (she first broke it out for Zara Phillip‘s wedding in 2011). A gold Wilbur & Gussie clutch and her fave nude L.K. Bennet pumps completed her ensemble.

Would you color coordinate with family or did you leave those days behind when you stopped taking photos for holiday cards?

I’ll admit it that I have always wanted to see Queen but was never able to see the band when it was led by the iconic Freddy Mercury, but now thanks to The Queen Extravaganza I am getting a taste of what I have been missing!

In a two-set show that runs just over two hours, the band performs nearly 40 Queen classics drawn from a list of the band’s biggest all-time chart hits: “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Another One Bites The Dust,” “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” “Under Pressure,” “We Will Rock You/We Are The Champions,” “A Kind Of Magic,” “Radio Ga Ga,” “Somebody To Love” and “Killer Queen.” The show also highlights some of the band’s finest heavy-duty rock anthems which have long been at the core of their live performances, such as “I’m In Love With My Car,” “Tie Your Mother Down,” “Seven Seas Of Rye,” and “In The Lap Of The Gods.”

In addition, the excitement on stage is enhanced with the inclusion of never-before-seen video footage, and a heavyweight production team headed by stage designer Mark Fisher, who has been responsible for some of the most memorable rock concerts ever staged, including The Wall for Pink Floyd and every Rolling Stones show since 1989.

It is a complete rock spectacle and a wonderful show with performers who are loving what they are doing, if by the end of this tour this doesn’t become a staple in Las Vegas I would be completely shocked!

So HollywoodLifers, are you excited for the show to come to your town? Sound off below!

After you all saw the awesome Queen medley that was performed on Top 6 night on April 25 everyone is all about hearing the iconic music of Queen. Well Idol fans and Queen fans the magic continues when The Queen Extravaganza will perform “Somebody to Love” in support of their upcoming North American summer tour.

The Queen Extravaganza tour launches on May 26, and will hit cities coast-to-coast across the U.S. and Canada throughout the summer of 2012 (see below for full itinerary). Masterminded by Taylor and May themselves, The Queen Extravaganza is a spectacular touring concert show designed to bring the glorious music and live experience of Queen to multiple generations of fans. The band includes vocalists Marc Martel and Jennifer Espinoza; additional vocalists Yvan Pedneault and Jeff Scott Soto; bassist Francois Olivier Doyon; guitarists Brian Gresh and Tristan Avakian; drummer Tyler Warren; and keyboardist & musical director Brandon Ethridge. The musicians were hand-selected by Taylor after an intensive 12-week worldwide online audition search, with video submissions generating more than 10 million views.

In a show that will run over two hours, The QE band will perform nearly 40 Queen classics, drawn from a list of the band’s biggest all-time chart hits: “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “Another One Bites the Dust,” “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” “Under Pressure,” “We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions,” “A Kind of Magic,” “Radio Ga Ga,” and “Killer Queen.” In addition, the show will highlight some of the band’s finest heavy-duty rock-based anthems that have long been at the core of their live performances, so audiences can also expect a healthy dose of early period Queen with songs such as “I’m In Love With My Car,” “Tie Your Mother Down,” “Seven Seas of Rye,” and “In the Lap Of The Gods,” among others. The production will also be boosted with the inclusion of never-before-seen video footage.

To guarantee that the touring show matches the fabled design and excitement of Queen at its live best, Taylor has enlisted a heavyweight production team headed by stage designer Mark Fisher.

Lighting for The Queen Extravaganza has been designed by Rob Sinclair (Queen, Adele, Peter Gabriel, Pulp, Mumford and Sons, Goldfrapp).

The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting a baby boy AND a baby girl, royal insiders reveal!

Kate Middleton, 29, is reportedly pregnant with a little prince and princess, her first children with Prince William! What amazing news!

“William almost collapsed with joy — and relief — when Kate called to tell him she was pregnant,” sources tell Star magazine.

The babies would be the first twins ever born into the British royal family. According to tradition the little boy would immediately become first in line to the throne, making him king when William, 29, dies.

The pregnancy news follows speculation the 29-year-old future Queen was too skinny to conceive.

The couple have also been under intense pressure to create an heir to the throne within the first year of married life!

Royal biographer Christopher Wilson confirms, “Kate was under enormous stress to produce an heir quickly. If she delivers healthy twins, it will be wonderful news — a royal first.”

The couple were told the happy news by doctors exactly 100 days after they married in a spectacular ceremony, in front of the entire world, on April 29.

Since then they’ve been relaxing at their love-nest in rural Wales, where William works as a search and rescue helicopter pilot, and preparing for the big arrival!

What great news, HollyMoms? Are you excited about the royal babies?

UPDATE: A Clarence House rep tells HollyBaby.com exclusively that Kate is NOT pregnant. He says, “I’ve seen a version of this story a number of times from all over the world, and suffice to say that if it were true, it would be us announcing it, not a gossip magazine.”

A British politician is trying to overthrow an old-fashioned law that would stop William & Kate’s firstborn daughter becoming Queen!

Under the current law, Britain only gets a Queen if the monarch fails to produce a male heir. The eldest son becomes king, even if he has an older sister!

But things could all change by the time the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge start creating their own little heirs — if leading politician Nick Clegg gets his way.

Clegg, the Deputy Prime Minister, says, ‘If Prince William and Catherine Middleton were to have a baby daughter as their first child, I think most people would think it’s perfectly fair and normal that she would eventually become Queen.”

But still, William and Kate’s first-born baby will have a while to wait before they get the keys to Buckingham Palace. Wills’ dad Prince Charles is next in line for the throne, followed by William himself!

Now they’re married, newlyweds have to get busy, making some heirs!
