New York - Sixty-five percent of Americans have no interest in Prince William's pending marriage and only a small minority are paying attention, making the royal wedding about as popular as WikiLeaks, a new poll shows.

Four percent of 1 058 people questioned in the 60 Minutes/Vanity Fair poll said they were interested in all of the wedding and wished they could go and 21 percent considered it a “harmless spectacle”.
