Look at my fan. I'm so happy. Are those profiteroles I see?
Yeah for those of you who didn’t know, K-Lag was a fabulous fatty and frankly, I think he looked a lot happier when he was plump. I’m going to assume Karl Lagerfeld was more content during his rounder days because he probably spent most of his time eating yummy nom-noms in Paris like everyday. That, and it was before he sold his soul a la Dorian Gray.
Lagerfeld even said it himself: “I have no human feelings.” As far as his diet goes, in his documentary, Karl Lagerfeld Is Never Happy Anyway, he revealed an important tidbit of info: “I am a sort of vampire, taking the blood of other people.” Yup, no soul.
Actually, Karl lost the 90 lbs in a year because he kinda starved himself, having been rumored to only consume Diet Coke during that period of time in order to fit into to tiny, tight, testiculuscious designer jeans which inspired the release of the book below.
Of course this post calls for some great Karl quotes:
“If there’s something dangerous, sauces are dangerous for the body.” >>> So evidently he doesn’t do ranch.
“Some people would like me to be round again.” >>> Yes, for a month though. During December. Jolly Karl Lager-Claus.
“Some people say to me you’re too skinny, but never a skinny person says that to me, only people who could lose a few pounds say that.” >>> Shit. No need to be a skinny bitch now, Karl.
Karl, thanks for making life worth living.
