Adele responds to Karl Lagerfeld’s “fat” comments, and he… apologizes?
It was just two days ago that Karl Lagerfeld really stepped in it, offering his unwanted opinions on everything from Russian men (ugly!) to Lana del Rey’s plastic quotient (high!). But it was his comment on singer Adele’s body weight that really got people going—most especially our verbalist, Sarah Nicole Prickett.
Well it seems the Kaiser hasn’t yet learned his lesson: just yesterday he offered one of the most circular, confusing, nonsensical apologies we’ve ever heard.
“I’d like to say to Adele that I am your biggest admirer. Sometimes when you take a sentence out of the article it changes the meaning of the thought,” Lagerfeld told Metro. “I lost over 30 kilos over 10 years ago and have kept it off. I know how it feels when the press is mean to you in regards to your appearance. Adele is a beautiful girl. She is the best. And I can’t wait for her next CD.”
Hmmm… we’re not sure how “Adele is a bit too fat” can really be taken out of context. Nevertheless, the super singer recently told People, “I’ve never wanted to look like models on the cover of magazines. I represent the majority of women and I’m very proud of that.” Amen.
