Let's just designate this royal funny season. How else to explain Fergie's unduchess-like behavior Monday on the flight back to England? Now comes news that the usually cool Princess Diana lost it last weekend on a visit to a London homeless shelter. The way the Daily Mirror tells it, Di was approached by a half-crocked Scottish runaway who apparently didn't recognize her royalness when he walked up to her and blurted: "You're a lovely-looking lass and you have beautiful eyes." She brushed him off with: "I guess he's a bit tanked up." With that the guy ID'ed her and shouted: "I hate the royal family" and shot off a few choice epithets. The princess countered: "Why don't you attempt to get your life sorted out like the others?" Turning to her entourage, she huffed: "People like that are just losers."
Now It's Princess Di Losing Her Cool

Meanwhile, British papers are reporting that the Duchess of York is now concerned about some "friendly and newsy" notes on palace stationery she
sent to Steve Wyatt, the bachelor who left those pictures of the two lying about. Sarah normally shreds such notes sent to her but fears Wyatt may not have.
THE POP SCENE
Cinderella was the big winner at Tuesday night's third annual Street Beat Awards for Philly-area rockers at the Chestnut Cabaret. The group won four of the 14 awards, including best artist and best album (Heartbreak Station) in the signed-to-a-record-contract category. Blackeyed Susan got best new artist and Tommy Conwell, best live performer in the same category. In the unsigned category, Bricklin won best artist; Chris Day, best new artist, and South Street legend Kenn Kweder got best album for Flesh, Blood & Blue. Accepting his trophy, Kweder thanked "Stoli, Jack Daniel's, V.O., Molson, Moosehead, Budweiser and my parents." The winners were picked by ballots tabulated by
WMMR-FM.
Nirvana, the newest hot lot, has played a bit of a joke on buyers of its monster-selling album, Nevermind. The CD lists 12 tunes but if you hang in there for 10 minutes of silence, after the 12th song there's a 13th, "Endless Nameless." Explained the spokeswoman for Nirvana's record label: "It's just supposed to make you wonder."
The Brit pop-music press has named Primal Scream's Screamadellica the best album of 1991. It's followed, in order, by Nevermind, Neil Young's Arc-Weld, R.E.M's Out of Time and Teenage Fanclub's Bandwagonesque.
