Lovely PHOTOS from the Nobel Prize ceremonies in Stockholm & Oslo held today

Performing at tonight's Nobel Peace Prize concert are U.S. musicians Queen Latifah and Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler who were also in attendance at the Oslo ceremony. 
Scandinavian kings, queens, princes and princesses have all attended this year's Nobel Prize ceremonies - helping form a guest list that gave the annual event an injection of prestige and glamour not seen in recent years.
While the royals traditionally attend the ceremonies in Stockholm and Oslo, this year many opted to bring their powerful and wealthy partners in a guest list that threatened to overshadow the work of the award recipients themselves.
Among the guests to attend the ceremony in Stockholm were New York banker Christopher O'Neill, who last year married Swedish Princess Madeleine, and her brother Prince Carl Philip - who brought with him his fiance Sofia Hellqvist - a former reality TV star and lad mag pin-up girl.
