Queen and Prince Philip were once left laughing at a bizarre request from ex-Arsenal star Emmanuel Eboue.Eboue, 38, was Arsenal’s dressing room joker between 2004 and 2011, during which there was never a dull moment with the Ivorian around. The marauding right-back’s great sense of humour has seen him memed a number of times over the years.And an encounter with Queen Elizabeth II during the Arsenal squad’s visit to Buckingham Palace in 2007 proved there is no limit to his tomfoolery. On that occasion, he ignored the warnings of captain Thierry Henry and left both her majesty and Prince Philip laughing after boldly asking to look after her corgis.Eboue recalled the hilarious incident to The Telegraph, saying: "We went there and Thierry Henry said to me: 'Please, Emmanuel, this is Buckingham Palace, it's the Queen's house, don't do anything.'

Kim Kardashian may be something of a royal here in the States, but does that mean she gets — or even wants — access to the British royal family’s most lavish events??

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorJohn Lydon — a.k.a. Johnny Rotten, lead singer of the Sex Pistols and Public Image Ltd. — has written a brief and to-the-point editorial for the U.K.’s Times that ranges from his thoughts on the royal family to his wife’s struggle with Alzheimers, from Danny Boyle’s new biopic “Pistol” (which he fought legally) and his early struggles with fame.While the London-born Lydon, who has lived in Los Angeles for decades, courted controversy in recent years with statements in support of former President Trump, the editorial finds him as direct and unsentimental as ever.Yet the most striking statements are him effectively contradicting the world-shattering statements he made in the Sex Pistols’ first two singles, which laid the template for much of punk rock’s ethos: In it, he says “anarchy is a terrible idea” (defying the group’s first single, “Anarchy in the U.K.”) and “God bless the Queen,” which reverts the withering sarcasm of the group’s second single, “God Save the Queen” (“and the fascist regime”) as Britain observes Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee.
