Karl Lagerfeld: Officially An Idiot

Chanel headKarl Lagerfeld doesn’t know when to stop scaring people talking

Lagerfeld has implied in the past that Klum is too fat to be a model and now has admitted that he actually doesn’t even know her.  “I don’t know her. Claudia Schiffer doesn’t know her.  She was never in Paris, we don’t know her.”   Gee…what do you think Karl is trying to say?  Do you think he means he doesn’t knowher?  By the way, what his redundancy translates to is:  ”Heidi Klum is too fat for me to acknowledge as a professional or as a human being.”

Anyway, if that wasn’t enough, Klum’s husband Seal wasn’t safe from Lagerfeld’s musings either.  About the singer , who suffers from a condition called discoid lupus erythematosus which causes facial scarring, Lagerfeld said, “ I am no dermatologist but I wouldn’t want his skin.  Mine looks better than his. He is covered in craters.”

Incidentally, Claudia Schiffer may not know Heidi Klum, but she knows where she shops.

The Olsen Twins: Budding Literati?

Early copies of the Olsen twins’ book, Influence, are out, and the reviews?

Generally positive!

Says NY Mag:

Readers, we just got a copy of the Olsen twins’ new book, Influence. And it’s fantastic. We’re not even being sarcastic. We haven’t felt this way about a book since the one all about the costumes in the Sex and the City movie landed on our desk. Influence consists only of interviews conducted by the Olsens (with editor Derek Blasberg in tow) with the world’s most famous designers, photographers, artists, and tastemakers alongside pictures of them, their work, and the Olsens. We’re talking long, involved, revealing interviews that are, you know, entertaining. With people like John Galliano, Christian Louboutin, Terry Richardson, Richard Prince, and more. Yes, a coffee-table book that’s more than worth a read!

NY Mag also posted some snippets from the Olsens’ interview with Karl Lagerfeld, which is, admittedly, totally awesome.

I think I might have to buy this book.
