The Illéa Weekly

Hello Illéa this is Kara Kross your favorite snoop here directly from Angeles with the latest news about the Selection!

It seems both the arrival for the Selected and Foreign Royalty has gone off without a hitch, filled with interesting news, scintillating interviews and juicy gossip I'm here to fill you in.

As you all know a day before the Selection starts the red carpet was teeming with foreign royalty from across the globe. From the beautiful French royal family the Beaumont's, to the highly respected Yoshimura's the Japan's royals.

It seems the peoples choice tonight was the adorable moment where Princess Evelina of Italy (-clemmybrahh) shared a hug with her oldre brother Lioné while their beautiful sister looked on happily.

But not all is as it seems, and even the royals have their fights, and it seems English Princess Georgina ( @copycatsue ) and her step-sister Princess Jade Fields ( _xScarlett_Wolfx_ ) got into a pretty nasty screaming match that ended up with Princess George hauling her twin Prince Alistair (@copycatsue ) from their sisters and Princess Jade mysteriously dissappearing at the same time gorgeous Prince Liam Beaumont (@copycatsue ) did. Hmm, is this the start of a steamy secret affair Illéa, we'll just have to wait and see!

Speaking of pairings Japanese Heir Shuuya Yoshimura ( Sapphieplays ) was seen sitting with our own Princess Adriana, ( DraculasWaifu ) Prince Shuuya and Princess Megara Maier from Germany ( hey-it-winter ) were also seen chatting earlier that evening. Love triangle perhaps, or is dear Prince Shuu just that sociable?

Our Crown Prince Jaxon Schreve (@copycatsue ) met with a few royals, he was seen exchanging polite chat with the beautiful Italian twin royals, Lioné and Vienna (TheOne_Fairy) and dear Princess Hikari of Japan(ShadowQueen1220). Jax seemed very relaxed at the time but time will tell if he's going to go along with it or crack under the immense pressure.

Pressure seems to be the word of the day for our favorite Schreves. Jaxons siblings all made an appearance on the carpet although Prince Rowan ( kbandj )and Prince Hadrien (@copycatsue ) seperated from their family very quickly and afterwards Princess Adrianna seemed very depressed, trouble in paradise?

Princes Theo ( _Doctor_Who_Girl_ ) and Alec ( XxEversoLilacxX )however denigned to give me a quick interview.

Question: "What do you think about the Selection so far?"

Prince Theo: "Well so far, I'm not okay with this idea...but I trust my parents." Whom later went on to expand. "Hm...well I believe it's a bad idea because we are forced to pick someone. When I personally would like more time to find love."

Prince Alec: "Well considering I haven't met anyone new yet...Wonderful."

Along with the Princes I have managed to interview one of the foreign royals, Hikari Yoshimura the 14 year old Princess of Japan (ShadowQueen1220).

"Illea is wonderful so far. I hope to see more of it soon. The Illea royals are very generous to let us stay in the beautiful home." The Princess continues, "The other royals I have talked to are very polite and I think Japan will get some new allies this year. I haven't meet the selected girls yet, but I am looking forward to meeting them."

I also got to snag a few seconds with four of the first Selected onto the red carpet. Lady Malloy Litening (MaylightScars) from Ottoro, Lady Charlotte "Charlie" Lovins (thegirlwithconverse9) from Columbia, Lady Vinelle Russo (@TheOne_Fairy ) from Calgery, and Lady Helena Clarke (chayatallent) from Sota.

Question: "What are your feelings about everything so far?"

Charlie:
"It's crazy. Going from being just another face in the crowd to being on of the most talked about people in Illéa." Lady Charlotte also said this in reply to my second question which was, 'What is the first thing you would do if you became Queen?' "I would help people in poverty. I would take a little tax money to help the people in poverty by opening shelters. Food, home, health shelters to help people on the streets. It breaks my heart every time I see sleeping bags under bridges, in ally ways, and on sidewalks. I want to help the people of Illéa."

Helena:
"Well, I think I will enjoy the Selection, even if I don't succeed." Lady Helena also spoke a few words about what she would do if she became Queen. "I would help any women or girls who were single mothers care fur their child to their best ability. To do this, I would take a small portion of the taxes and divvy it up for them. This would mean that they were not given as much tax, in a sense, and they would have more money for their child and themselves. I myself am a single mother and am very fortunate to have a caring and supportive family. I know others are not so privileged."

Vinelle:
While Lady Vinelle said this in response "Well I'd obviously help people. No matter who they are. Of course I'd spend a little more time with those in poverty, but I would be more than happy to help everyone. Also, I'd like to do something about the caste system. While my feelings are mixed, I feel like it is a bit unfair to those lower."

Mallory:
Lady Mallory had quite a lot of input also. "Okay, so, first, this is all sooooooooo overwhelming! I'm used to just staying in my book nook writing and day dreaming. Second, I really don't know who I would choose I will have to get back to you on that... You see as much as they write about the princes and stuff I don't know them personally and I prefer not to decide favorites untill I know then myself!  And third when I'm Queen, well, my, there is so much to take into consideration I have to see what we can afford to do and what is actually possible and what will best benefit the country! I have so many dreams for the country and its people! But my mom always told me that I shouldn't get ahead of myself! However once my plans become assured I hope to reveal more... But I will give you a hint.... I hope to bring unity...."

These four ladies seem to be quite the catch, that is on the surface.. Who knows what lurks behind their seemingly kind masks, we'll just have to continue to watch them very closely won't we? Watch out girls, you just became the most watched celebrities in the public eye!

The rest of the Selected seemed to have a rather calm plane and limo ride, it seems like there were no significant fights between them, at least for now. In fact many of the girls seemed to have made friends, we'll see just how long that will last, won't we Illéa?

Once they hit the carpet the party really got started, although I only interviewed a few girls it seemed everyone had a blast, many of the Selected posed for pictures and autographs, which the fans just loved while many more had conversations with the royals.

That's all for now dear readers, next time we will learn how the Selected's first official meetings with the Princes go and the news on how the first challange went!

So goodbye and good night Illéa, this is Kara Kross signing off.
