Because according to Karl, there are only two kinds of women: pretty, skinny women and "fat mummies." And you don't want to be one of those, because as Karl will tell you, fat mummies are boring lardasses who do nothing but sit around "with their bags of crisps in front of the television, saying that thin models are ugly."
Here's an actual snippet from the interview:
Reporter: “You think it’ll be OK for women to be fat in the future?”
Lagerfeld: “Unfortunately, yes.”
Reporter: “But not OK now?"
Lagerfeld: "No."
Fashion is all about "dreams and illusions," he said. "And no one wants to see round women."
Yes, well you know what else no one wants, Karl? Advice from the undead. Now off you go, before I open this JUMBO-SIZED BAG OF CRISPS and start eating it right in front of you!
Lagerfeld: No-o-o-o! Aayyyyyyeeeeeeeeek!
Karl is one strange cat. He used to be El Tubbo himself until he got thin and wrote a diet book about it. Odd that he has zero empathy for those less fortunate to be skeletal thin. Well, Karl, not everyone wants to look like a cancer victim.
ReplyDeleteStrange, no? It reminds me a bit of certain smokers who quit smoking and then act as if you're killing a baby if you smoke within 30 yards of them.
