As guest editor for Metro Paris he was asked what he thought about new singer Lana del Rey. He responded by saying he prefers Adele's music, but "The thing at the moment is Adele is a little too fat, but she has a beautiful face and a divine voice." That was a backhanded complement if I have ever heard one. I'm not one to critic appearances, but I do not know what he is doing talking about the physical appearance of others. White pony tails are not very becoming.
I would like to point out that Karl Lagerfeld was once extremely overweight and had to have a personal diet created by a doctor to help him lose weight. Granted the program was a success, but very unhealthy as he lost 90 lbs in a short period of time. He doesn't suggest exercise, but instead starvation by limiting followers to 800 calories per day. Critics say he lost all of his weight by eating vegetables and drinking diet coke. I don't know why someone who knows the struggle of weight loss and the spotlight would be so cruel especially to another celebrity. In the words of Michelle Tanner from Full House, "How Rude!"
