Royal commentator Daniela Elser has recently shed light on the peculiarities surrounding Buckingham Palace and its operations. In her latest piece for News.com.au, Elser offered a thought-provoking analogy, comparing the enigmatic nature of the royal family to the mysterious properties of black holes.
“One of the creepy facts about black holes is that they bend light back on itself; the normal rules of physics don’t apply if you are near one of these chilling bad boys,” Elser remarked. She extended this comparison to the royal family, suggesting, “I think the royal family might be the same — they too bend and twist the normal rules of the universe.”
Elser used this analogy to underscore the significant media impact of Kate Middleton, which she argues eclipses even that of Zendaya. “But don’t take my word for this, let’s ask our old friend, numbers,” Elser said. According to her analysis, Kate Middleton’s media impact value is valued at $7.1 million compared to Zendaya’s $5.3 million.
In Elser’s view, the royal family’s influence is epitomized by “advantage Anmer Hall over Annie Hall chic,” a nod to the dramatic contrast between the royal’s high-impact public presence and the more subdued glamour of the iconic film character.
“It’s not often that we are presented with such a neat and easy means of quantifying – and comparing – the wider impact of Crown Inc but this makes for an instructive moment,” Elser concluded, highlighting the unusual but clear metrics that reveal the royal family’s significant cultural footprint.
Elser’s comments offer a unique perspective on the extraordinary reach and influence of the royal family, illustrating how their presence and media value operates on a level that defies conventional norms.
