Pippa Middleton, the sister-in-law of Britain's Prince William, was paid $700,000 via a book advance to deliver a tome. The end result is the book "Celebrate" which has been anything but that for the publisher, as it has only sold 10,000 copies at up to $30.00 a copy.

In short, it's a bust. But considering what Pippa is famous for, it should have been a butt (bum). Had she kept it real and put a photo of her butt on the cover, sales would have been different. However, that would have been crass. The problem with the book is it is not that unusual and overly simplistic.
