I saw this on Yahoo and it incensed me and reminded me of the proverb "People who live in glass houses should not throw stones" Adele is a beautiful and very talented woman and what makes Karl Lagerfeld think he is the 'fat police'. It's is this sort of thing that leads to Bulimia and Anorexia Nervosa in young women. It is much better to concentrate on a heathy, balanced nutritious diet, instead of spending time standing on scales or gazing in the mirror and scrutnizing the body.
Whilst mentioning 'mirror' personally I think Karl Lagerfeld should look at his own reflection before judging others. There are too many people in this world who like to 'give it' but can't 'take it' back!
Adele called a ‘little too fat’ by fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld
Adele is famed for her voice not her figure, but today it's exactly that which has caused controversy as fashion's finest, Karl Lagerfeld insult
In an interview with the Metro, Chanel's creative director snubbed the star saying she's 'a little too fat'.
Lagerfeld clearly admires British singers, as he employed Lily Allen to be the face of Chanel in 2009, but Adele won't be getting a call any time soon, unless it's to make an apology.
When asked about Lana Del Rey the designer said:
"I prefer Adele and Florence Welch. But as a modern singer she is not bad. The thing at the moment is Adele.
"She is a little too fat, but she has a beautiful face and a divine voice."
We don't think the fashion heavyweight's second statement will win him any fans from Adele's camp!
On her size the Someone Like You Singer has previously said: "It's just never been an issue — at least, I've never hung out with the sort of h who make it an issue.
"I have insecurities of course, but I don't hang out with anyone who points them out to me."
In 2004, Karl Lagerfeld was forced to apologise by H&M after he complained that his collection for the fashion chain was available in size 1 had created the line for 'slim, slender, people.'
Mr Lagerfeld famously shed six and a half stone by eating horse meat, tomatoes and drinking Diet Coke.
You'd think, given his experiences he'd have some consideration of Adele's feelings, but it appears not.
We're waiting to hear now what Adele makes of all this, we hope she bites back with something juicy!
