First, Norway. A concert was held in honor of U.S. President Barack Obama receiving the Nobel Peace Prize. Hosted Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, the artists at this event included Alicia Keys and Wyclef Jean. At one point during his performance, Wyclef Jean climbed to where Crown Prince Haakon, Crown Princess Mette Marit and her son, Marius, were sitting in the audience. Jean shook hands with the royals and went on singing from where he was.
Over to Sweden where their royals’ love of dressing up took place once again for a gala banquet at the royal palace. Known as the King’s Dinner, it was where the royal family personally congratulates the Nobel laureates on their winning.
Crown Princess Victoria stole the show once again with her glamorous gown and tiara. But sadly, she was not accompanied by fiance, Daniel Westling, who was told by doctors to avoid this event due to his kidney transplant earlier this year.
But younger sister Madeleine was happily on the arm of her fiance, Jonas Bergstrom. She also looked stunning in her gown, which was worn to last year’s Nobel Prize ceremony, minus the bordello this time.
