Bye Bye Karl?


Apparently the fashion industry is as vulnerable to gossip as TV and film. The most recent 'buzz' is that world renowned designer Karl Lagerfeld is, gasp.... leaving Chanel. Dun dun dun...

I know. I mean this is worse than the whole Somali pirate shizz that was going on last month. World hunger and starvation can hold its horses, but Karl you better stay put. The rumor is that Karl is ready to move on to "bigger and better" things. Hello.. what's better than Chanel? Ever head of the ol' saying 'don't bite the hand that feeds you?' Take notes Karl...

The US has eagerly been awaiting the domestic release of the film, "Coco before Chanel", and apparently Mister Lagerfeld is eager to get his paws on the silver-screen as well. Diva(o) much? Apparently current Lanvin designer, Alber Elbaz would take over for Chanel and former Nina Ricci designer, Olivier Theyskens, would take over Lanvin. 

Here is a piece of factual evidence that Karl is in fact moving on: he has been confirmed to voice the animated film, "Totally Spies." He will play the villain, Fabu! (Is that fabulous in french, hmmmm... sounds like it?) What are we gonna do without Karl's sexy white George Washington-like ponytail at the end of all the fashion shows? Lame. Lame. Lame.

It all seems a little "musical chairs" hits the fashion industry, doesn't it?!!
