He said his comment was taken out of context and I was going to let it go. HOWEVER the comment he made to attempt to fix the ignorance he said in his first interview, didn’t make things better.

Karl Lagerfeld, creative director of Fendi and Chanel said Adele (who is the BIGGEST selling artist of 2011) was ‘Fat’.

Check this out:

“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. Lana del Rey is not bad at all. She looks very much like a modern-time singer. In her photos she is beautiful. Is she a construct with all her implants? She’s not alone with implants.”(Source: Metro)

Again I ask what does Adele’s weight have to do with her talent? This is why we lack great talent in the industry today because ‘The Look” is more important than the TALENT. I still do not understand why Karl felt it was necessary to make that comment but to add more BS, he tried to come out with an additional statement saying his comment was taken out of context.

“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. What I said was in relation to Lana Del Rey and the sentence has since been taken out of context from how it was originally published. I actually prefer Adele, she is my favorite singer and I am a great admirer of her. 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.”(Source: Metro)

Was this suppose to make Adele or other thick women feel better?

The man still mentioned weight in his “apology”. Why is weight still being mentioned? Clearly Adele is comfortable with her size or she would have lost weight  like so many others who were apart of the thicksational club. His opinion doesn’t matter and to come back and attempt to fix the RUDE comment he made in his first interview, only to turn around and still mention weight, shows he really wasn’t SORRY for what he said but more SORRY that people didn’t like his comment. Well Karl you can keep your SORRY “apology”. Like Adele said she makes music for the ears, not the eyes, AND clearly most agree we her that’s why she is was more successful than ANY OTHER ARTIST IN 2011!
