Who Would You Swap Your Life With For A Month?

Has anyone wondered if their fave celeb really has a life of ease and glitter or not?. I would like to see just how easy or difficult kate middleton's life is just to see things from her side of the coin. With many royal divorces in the past I don't think life with the royals is the glamour its made out to be and I would love to tell phil the greek to shut it or even to see if the queen is as stuffy as people say.

    Do we get to swap their (healthy) body too? There's a reason some people go out partying all day and night and others don't :o

    I would have expected you to have chosen Kate's sister OP. You know - the one you resemble.

    Not with you Bluelass, you're life is full of drama.
    Life is like a bath, the longer you are in it the more wrinkly you become.

    I'd swap with some very dodgy, cash-dealing geezer ...and I'd spend the month shovelling the cash into boxes that I buried in the garden secretly back at my own house.

    I have no fav celebrity (why would I?). Would like to swap with my 8 year old DD's best friend, that way I get to mess around at school all day with my DD and be looked after!

  • I don't have any "fave celebs" but I would be interested in swapping my life with that of many people who live in different parts of the country/world, and who have different occupations and lifestyles.
    I'd like to come back to being me as a more understanding person.
    I have no interest in celebrity culture.

    Wouldn't want to swap with a celebrity.

    I would swap with my sister in law (as long as I get to keep my own husband and kids!).

    That way I get to take my kids to and from school every day and have the rest of the week to myself running my house and looking after my family at my own pace and not worrying about paid work. Not having to deal with delivering projects and improvements to impossible deadlines, team restructures, corporate rubbish and people management issues.

    And I can tell my 'swapped self' how I can't possibly find a job that fits around the kids and the housework and how 'lucky' she is to earn what she does, whilst completely disregarding all the hard work it entails!

    Yes, I am a little envious of her lifestyle, particularly when I have a weekend of work to contend with:o . But we make our own beds, don't we! And when you are used to a certain household income it is difficult to make the adjustment down and even more difficult to convince the other half to!:D

    No, I can't say I've ever wondered about that.

    But I do admit to being a tad curious why you use a capital letter at the beginning of each word in your thread titles.
