Queen Elizabeth Picks an Heir

Although she's reigned over Britain for 52 years, Queen Elizabeth II has yet to choose a successor -- but she sure knows how to pick other things.

Breaking from tradition, Liz -- who looked more like a Golden Girl than a royal -- abstained from her typical cold demeanor and got touchy-feely with her nose while attending the Royal Windsor Horse Show in England on Thursday.

Hopefully, she picked a winner. Big Brown by a nose!

3. Queen Elizabeth does not "choose" her successor - other than giving birth to him, she has no role.
Her successor will be Prince Charles.

6. Good grief TMZ, y'all need to get glasses and/or get laid and get a life. This doesn't look like any nose picking and so what if it is?

7. She can't wait for Nick Hogan to get out of jail so he can take that pesky, talkative Paul Burrell (who lives in Florida) out for a drive in the country.

8. Maybe she is plucking a hair, not picking an heir. She hasn't put anyone on the rack, or beheaded anyone, yet. I heard she has no use for that old Nag, Camilla the horse-faced daughter-in law. Anyways, what do you want from an 80 year old British Queen ??

9. #9 for her to die like she had Princess Diana killed.

10. As an English person, I am really annoyed to see this TMZ. The Queen was clearly just scratching her nose. After this stupid story, I shall never come to this site again. You will probably find you lose a big chunk of your non-American readers.

11. Once again, TMZ has no respect whatsover for anyone. Each and every one of you at TMZ pick your nose at some time or the other. Would you like to be shown like this?

12. First of all HMTQ is a human being and pees and poops just like you do so don't worship her.

13. Some fact checking by the talented, cough, cough, TMZ staff would have yielded the correct tenure of her reign: it has been 56 years since she became Queen, not 52. She officially succeeded her father upon his death in February, 1952.

14. It wasn't a pick - it was only a scratch!

15. She is the queen of England! Show some respect, do not post photos like this, it show complete disrespect to the elderly and to the royal family!
