Karl Lagerfeld has apologised to Adele

  • February 10, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Karl Lagerfeld has (sort of) apo­lo­gised to Adele for saying she was "a little too fat" in an interview with the Paris edition of the Metro.

The designer said in a statement, as reported by Reuters, that he was Adele's "biggest admirer" and that "sometimes when you take a sentence out of the article it changes the meaning of the thought".

Touching on his own battle with cake Lagerfeld went on to say: "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."

In a separate interview with People magazine Adele said: "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."
