Have a look at the big fat fake royal wedding!

Washington, Apr 2 (ANI): British photographer Alison Jackson’s take on Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding shows the royal family in a tantalizing and scandalous new light.
She has used look-alike actors to impersonate the royal family and other celebrities.
Jackson apparently used the doubles for the launch of her book, which presents a behind-closed-doors take on the royal wedding.
In one photo, Prince William is being taped to a lamppost in what looks like a bachelor party gone awry.
The bride-to-be, Kate, appears to be cutting a five-tier wedding cake with a sword in another photo. One shows Camilla in her knickers, slumped over a chair after too much Bourbon. And yet another shows Prince Charles busting a move on the dance floor with Lady Gaga.
“I’m not commenting on the real celebrity but our perception of them,” ABC News quoted Jackson as saying.
“I’m seduced by the celebrity image but I want to break the spell.”
Jackson said she doesn’t hate the royals but, like many, is fascinated by them because they’re so mysterious. Queen Elizabeth has never given an interview and the princes have all been very guarded about their public images.
“I also think the royal family is so shrouded in tradition and history and costume and that is intriguing,” she said.
“Nobody lives like our royal family. No one has a staff of 2,000 costumed servants,” she added. (ANI)
