        She may be a celeb, but she doesn’t play chess. That is clearly an illegal move.

        … not to mention that the bishop and knight are inverted on b8 and c8.

        That looks like Kim Kardashian, but I can’t be 100% sure. Why was she invited?

        First, that’s obviously Kim Kardashian. 🙂 Second, do they normally have a chess board at the Correspondents dinner?

        I think she looks a little like Carla Bruni, though I don’t know what she would be doing at said dinner. I am not particularly good at celebrities.
