Frederic Prinz von Anhalt, “I’m Going to be the Mayor of Los Angeles!!!”

1 Comment

It’s been a rough year so far for the faux prince Frederic von Anhalt.  First, he announced to the world that his dear friend, Carl Alexander Prince von Hohenzollern, cancelled his wedding to his bikini model girlfriend. Then he announced that he has Shingles and then days later he was hit by a car in Beverly Hills whilst jaywalking.  Nevertheless, that is in the past and now there is finally some good news. So what’s the news? Well, he’s running for mayor here in Los Angeles!  YAY!!

Now this isn’t the first time the faux prince was in the running for a political seat.  Back in 2010 he ran for governor of California.

Any way…

The faux prince says that if he is elected mayor he wants to lower utility bills, cut taxes, end homelessness because “… [I] see people eating out of trash cans every day. This must end!” as he drives by them in his Rolls Royce.

This afternoon he held a press conference to discuss his candidacy (one reporter showed up)  Click here to watch.  To learn more about his run for L.A. mayor please visit his official website here.

Good luck, Fred!   🙂

The world’s most annoying yet extremely entertaining faux prince, Frederic von Anhalt, is back in the news to the thrill of all.

So what’s been happening with him these past few weeks? Well, he recently announced to TMZ that he has Shingles, “… I was feeling sick and my face swelled. I was itchy and bumps everywhere!  So I went to the doctor and they told me I have Shingles and that it is highly contagious!”  

Ew.

As if things couldn’t get any worse the faux prince he was recently hit by a car in Beverly Hills, CA.  Apparently, Frederic was jaywalking between Camden Drive and Brighton Way when a silver Honda Civic catapulted the faux prince several hundred feet into the air then landing spread eagle onto the freshly paved streets in Beverly Hills.  Miraculously he was able to immediately contact TMZ to tell them that, “… [I] damaged my meniscus and [that] I expect to be on crutches for the rest of the year.”

Get well, Fred!
