Someday my prince will come!

Have you ever dreamt of meeting a handsome prince who would sweep you off your feet and take you back to his palace? Did you watch the royal weddings of Diana and Charles, Fergie and Prince Andrew and wish that were you?

Do you read alot of Harlequn Presents? Well, now ABC is letting 25 women have the chance that Snow White, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty had.

See this dude to the left? That's Prince Lorenzo Borghese, and he's the new star of The Bachelor. Yes, they've finally managed to scrounge up a real prince, and not just any prince. This guy has one ancestor who was a Pope and another ancestor was a Cardinal. Not only that his grandmother was the founder of Borghese cosmetics.

What's the catch? Well, for one thing, he grew up in the United States, don't expect him to running around sounding like Raoul Bova in Under the Tuscan Sun. Chances are he'll sound as American as Prince Albert of Monaco does. Can I tell you how disappointing it was the first time I heard Prince Albert interviewed and he sounded like Joe Schmoe from Philadelphia?

Anyway, Prince Lorenzo runs a company that provides royal treatment for Pets. So he's the Prince of Pets.

Still it begs the question, why would a guy with his pedigree (I mean the Borghese name is all over Rome) need a TV show to find a wife? You can't tell me that this guy isn't beating women in New York off with a stick.

Trust me, we're desperate here. He's single and he has a job, so why at the age of 33 hasn't he found that 'special someone'?

Well, anyone who has read this blog more than once, knows that I will be back watching in September to see Prince Lorenzo and 24 clueless American women run all over Rome giving us a bad name.

Thanks for reading!
