Posted Monday January 30, 2012 3:11 PM GMT

Last year she married Prince William to become the Duchess of Cambridge, and this year Kate Middleton has been named the Hat Person of the Year by The Headwear Association.

The Royal hottie received 91% of the votes from an online poll, beating out Rachel Zoe, Ne-Yo, and Justin Timberlake for the honor.

Thanks to her big win, Ms. Middleton can now count herself among past winners like Johnny Depp and Brad Pitt... no too shabby!

The Headwear Association’s mission is to promote hat wearing and the headwear industry throughout the world and foster goodwill and fellowship among those engaged in the headwear industry.
