Ah, every time I heard that music, it makes me feel like royalty. Not really. But on Friday the world will tune in to see real royalty. Prince William and Kate Middleton will marry after a decade-long courtship. Cat Deeley is in London to see it all firsthand. Hi, Cat. I want to know what the mood is like. Are Londoners getting excited?

It's reaching fever pitch here. I mean, we're still a few days off, but it's bank holiday Monday here. We're all celebrating Easter. It's so warm. It's a glorious day here in London. It hasn't been this warm since 1949. Everybody is out in the streets, and there are actually loads of Londoners and English people around Buckingham Palace. Normally this is kind of reserve of tourists, but I think everybody is just in a general mood of celebration, and we've still got days to go. So it's going to get even more exciting.

OK. Let's talk about the guest list. We know that Anderson Cooper and Piers Morgan and you will be there. But what other A-listers on the royal guest list?

Hahahah...well, thank you very much for lumping us in with everybody else. And yeah, you know, it's obviously going to be me, Piers and Anderson. We're going to be just over there. What we'll be doing is we'll be waiting here for when the couple make it back to Buckingham Palace. And hopefully what they'll do is they'll come out on that balcony over there and kiss. We're still waiting to see what kind of kiss it's going to be, might be a kiss on the hand. I'm hoping not the cheek. I think that's very cold. We want a full-on romantic smacker. But the people at the church, I know that Victoria Beckham and David Beckham are going to be there. Elton John is going to be there. Joss Stone is going to be there. There are lots and lots of A-listers who are going to be there. So it will definitely be worth tuning in and spotting the people as they go into the abbey.

There is a report flying around out there that Beyonce and Jay-Z are going to perform at the wedding. Have you heard that?

I don't know about that. But I think Kate Middleton could shake her booty if she needed to, I'm sure. You know what, I haven't heard anything about that yet, but that would be, listen. They are a thoroughly modern couple for a brand-new generation. You know, I think they breathe new life into the monarchy, and hell, if I could had Beyonce and Jay-Z at my wedding, I'd get them there.

I would definitely shake my booty to that. Cat Deeley, many thanks.

Why not? It will be delicious.Exactly.
