While she typically goes by the title the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate was listed as a princess of the United Kingdom. The royals made it clear Kate should not be known as Princess Catherine, but as reflected in the birth certificate, she officially received the title "Princess William of Wales" upon marriage.

Diana was a patron of more than 100 causes around the world, some of which Prince William and Prince Harry now champion. One of the charities in question is the National AIDS Trust. The trust promotes the awareness of AIDS and helps prevent the spread of HIV, and in April 1987, Diana was invited to open the UK's first AIDS ward at Middlesex hospital. During her visit, Diana challenged the notion that HIV/AIDS was passed on by touch when she shook the hand of a dying AIDS patient without wearing gloves.

From sequins to 18th-century ruffles, Aladdin’s James Monroe Iglehart is about to embark on another dream: playing the dual roles of Marquis de Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson in Hamilton. On Sunday, Feb. 19, Iglehart will take his final bow as the Genie on Broadway before moving up four blocks from the New Amsterdam Theatre on 42nd Street to the coveted Richard Rodgers Theatre on 46th, where he’ll join the cast of the Alexander Hamilton musical starting mid-April.
While the Genie was famously voiced by Robin Williams in the 1992 animated film, Iglehart has been playing the part since Aladdin’s 2011 out-of- town tryouts in Seattle, which eventually landed in Toronto for a pre-Broadway run in 2013. Night after night, the actor has received roaring applause for his show-stopping rendition of “Friend Like Me,” a number that surely helped him win the 2014 Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Musical.

Well, maybe Benedict Cumberbatch can recycle his dressing room nameplate from "Star Trek Into Darkness." The actor, who played Khan in the sci-fi flick, is set to play another Khan -- Shere Khan in Warner Bros.' live-action adaptation of "Jungle Book: Origins."
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Cumberbatch will voice the man-eating tiger that is young Mowgli's nemesis. Based on Rudyard Kipling's stories, the movie follows the orphaned Mowgli as he's raised by wolves, befriends Baloo the bear and Bagheer the black panther. It will be the directorial debut of Andy Serkis (you know, the guy who played Gollum in "Lord of the Rings" and Caesar in "Rise of the Planet of the Apes").
Cumberbatch and Serkis both did motion capture and voice work on Peter Jackson's "Hobbit" movies, as dragon Smaug and and Gollum respectively.
Cumberbatch will have some Shere Khan competition, as Disney is making a competing "Jungle Book" movie.
