为获得英国威廉王子与准王妃凯特的王室婚礼请柬，一名19岁的墨西哥女孩竟然在英国驻墨西哥城大使馆前进行绝食抗议。

A Mexican teenager is staging（表演，展现） a hunger strike outside the British Embassy¹ in Mexico City in a bid to secure² an invitation to the wedding of Britain's Prince William and Kate Middleton.

Estibalis Chavez, 19, said she had not eaten for the past eight days and was living on just water as she camps in a blue tent near the gates to the embassy.

"Are they going to let me die just because they wouldn't give me an invitation to the royal wedding?" Chavez wrote on one of the flyers she has plastered³ near the entrance to the colonial-style building.

"This is my only dream," read another flyer next to a picture of the smiling royal couple who will marry at London's Westminster Abbey on April 29.

The embassy could not immediately be reached for comment.

The diminutive⁴（小型的） Chavez, wearing braces⁵, pigtails（辫子） and glasses, said on Thursday the late Princess Diana, Prince William's mother, had inspired her campaign.

"I think she was one of the most interesting women in history, and one of the best and most beautiful," she said.

"My mother was a big fan of Lady Di too and she died when I was born, so I promised myself I would attend her son's wedding," added Chavez, who has also taken her cause to the Facebook social networking site.

"The embassy could talk to Britain for me but they haven't," she said. "But I'm going to stay here until I can't go on."
