    You're creating a false dichotomy. Just because someone is fat does not mean that they are ugly....you're the one assuming that it's an either/or thing. Yes, Adele is overweight, no that doesn't imply she's ugly...it means she's overweight.

    She is overweight. She is awesomely talented. I don't really know that it was Karl's place to point it out. I am just glad she recovered and can sing!

    I think calling somebody fat is rude (fat just seems to have a bad connotations to it since people usually use fat as an insult) , but she is overweight. That's just a fact. But she IS extremely talented (I love her voice) and she is very beautiful.

    Calling a person "fat" is nonsense. Fat is a thing...a substance... and not a word to describe a person. If she is "fat," that would mean she has no bones or organs or teeth or nails etc...

    However, do I think she could be unhealthily overweight....probably.

    I think she is beautiful and talented. She is overweight, but what business is it of his. Why go out of your way to insult someone else?It is not like Adele is not aware she is overweight. I would love to have a face and a voice like hers.

    I really don't think the OP made it an either or thing. She never actually said "Adele isn't fat, she's beautiful." She just said she is beautiful.

    Whose Karl, and why is it a big deal he called someone fat. Someone called me fat when I was 90 pounds. I got over it and it was not news :P

    Love her music, but she is fat. Pointing out the truth is not always a nice thing :/

    SO talented though. I couldn't careless about her looks. I just listen to her amazing voice!

    I love that she isn't a stereotype. She can be strong, beautiful and powerful without having to fit into a mold.

    Karl Lagerfeld. From a famous fashion house you may be familiar with-- Chanel. It's not the first rude thing he's said about another person. He's said rude things about the royal family among others.

    I read somewhere that Karl lost a lot of weight by eating somewhere around 500 or 600 calories a day and living on Diet Coke. in my opinion, he shouldn't criticize someone else.

    Thanks for clearing that up for me lol. I just googled him, what's wrong with him? Whats up with the shades? I'm surprised he could see her at all. I'd much rather look like Adele. She's beautiful and writes awesome songs to boot.

    Anyway, why was he saying things about Adele? And why did this make news? Didn't she loose weight/get surgery or something? I don't keep up on these things :P

    I think Karl (Lagerfeld for those who don't know) has some issues. He used to be quite heavy himself, and some of his judgments on other people really annoy me. I think it's best for no one to listen to Karl lol.

    1) Adele IS overweight.
    2) Adele IS beautiful.
    3) Karl Lagerfeld is a f***wit.
    4) It's incredibly rude of anyone to pick on another person.

    I had heard that he issued an apoligy & said that it "was taken out of context", which the media LOVES to do. Regardless, he did call her fat, which was uncalled for, but still if there was more to the convo, shame on the press for printing crap like that. I am so sick of the media feeding us drivel & we eat it up by the spoonful.
