3:33
fucking hey honey in it and yes deeply,
3:36
okay I was like a who's who the mention that first
3:38
mayor options. such
3:41
as me for the most glaring
3:43
lee obvious thing about his supposed to assistance
3:46
like this is the blatantly de
3:48
mayo It's fine, but that he is.
3:50
I think the human response success of
3:53
are so gay get a very
3:55
gay man, yeah, so
3:57
you. The pulling together bio with his.
4:00
It was difficult. Do not,
4:02
because there hasn't been lot written
4:04
about him but because he was known
4:07
to lie about lot of
4:09
things about his background also
4:12
lying about random stuff
4:14
in your life for no particular purpose also
4:16
very gay. person
4:19
Yeah, he would tell people that. Mother
4:21
was Elizabeth of Germany
4:24
as if she was like noblewoman
4:27
or Aristocrat Royal
4:29
or something the. he was known
4:31
to lie about his birth year he was known
4:33
to lie about his national
4:35
The I have had men on dates lie
4:37
to me about their sh.
4:38
The scores and I'm like use thirty
4:40
seven out, and say, that,
4:43
matter of
4:45
a specific that are close
4:47
your that representation so
4:49
in reality confirmed by like government
4:52
records he was born in Hamburg
4:55
in September nineteen, thirty
4:57
three his father
4:59
was And auto he owned an
5:01
evaporated milk business. His
5:04
mother was not Elizabeth of
5:06
Germany. She was a lingerie sales
5:09
woman from Berlin. So she was Germany
5:11
that parts of Germany
5:13
and her name was Elizabeth. I am Mike
5:15
of Columbia City. That's a cute picture of
5:21
Forest Grove that actually sounds Royal
5:23
so meaning to that sisters
5:26
and we have little clip of
5:28
him talking about his
5:31
childhood. So we're going to watch minute
5:34
of this. How
5:36
can I take you back when you were growing up
5:38
now the town, right?
5:41
As Denmark in Germany, and I
5:42
i just would like to ask you a little bit
5:45
about
5:45
What's your childhood? wondered
5:48
wanting to get out of there and
5:50
to be grown up at 6.
5:57
No, I hit a nice subtle in period
5:59
when the. What not that great there's nothing
6:01
I can say again,
6:03
Sir, I'm not a it's
6:06
still recovering from an unmet hippies it's
6:08
hard to know everything was perfect I never
6:10
played the. sooner i only was
6:12
can sing and reading Then. Who
6:14
who Country Estate quite is related, no,
6:17
I didn't even have anything to do is my sister,
6:19
half sister, always was easily
6:22
the from the rest that wasn't. The best of
6:24
times myth over my father and even
6:26
better terms with my mother, who sought
6:28
it was perfect license as long as
6:30
was not creating topic. The
6:33
kind of a rich text tell me
6:35
he's in. The country house can be very
6:38
wealthy growing up.
6:39
Read also very isolated, but it sounds
6:42
like from his description that he's self isolated
6:44
that he does it feel like. The a native
6:47
of the place where he's growing up he's
6:49
in on bad terms of anybody it's not an
6:51
abusive childhood it's simply
6:53
one that he wants to escape that is
6:55
how I took this clip as well and then read his
6:57
biography and was like no role,
7:01
in. a
7:03
he described this as quote
7:06
unquote perfect childhood racism
7:08
What he does not mention is that he's
7:10
born in fucking Germany in nineteen
7:12
thirty three, this is Nazi Germany.
7:14
Is growing up, yeah, and then post war
7:17
destroyed Germany when he's a teenager,
7:19
song according to his biography,
7:21
"This is called Kaiser Pyro, it was"
7:23
People read this, he distance
7:26
himself from. There. Are many and his German
7:28
heritage starting in his teens,
7:30
he would tell people that he was
7:32
from an aristocratic, Swedish family
7:34
or people with guns that he was Dutch
7:37
and he. Would just like not object even
7:40
when he was ordering German food
7:42
in France he lived in France for his
7:44
whole adult life he. would
7:47
order them using the french words
7:49
for german foods he was calling them freedom
7:51
fries before we were calling than that The officers
7:54
in this. That either on good terms
7:56
with the father and maybe even better terms with his
7:58
mother every. Then. Anecdote,
8:00
the I have found or read about his
8:03
mom, is a little
8:05
bit funny, like five to ten
8:07
percent funny and ninety to
8:09
ninety five percent, devastatingly cruel,
8:12
oh what are. Some what are some of them, according
8:14
to him, she never went to one of his shows
8:17
and when he asked her about it, she said she disliked
8:19
other designers better whole. Fox
8:22
in book of his called "The World",
8:24
according to Coral, he said that his mother
8:26
said: quote i'm going to have to take
8:28
you to the upholstery your nostrils
8:31
are. Too big they need curtains,
8:33
oh God, he also wrote in
8:35
the Karl Lagerfeld diet, or he said
8:38
she did go on diet after my birth
8:40
from that moment on I. Was always held
8:42
responsible for her wait and
8:44
see who's to say jokingly that I had
8:46
killed off her youth and beauty whoa.
8:50
Mommy, joke mom, she also seems
8:52
to be displaying the kind of acid.
8:54
With. That you seen a lot of gay men
8:56
including Karl Lagerfeld, yeah, this
8:58
is the kind of frigid mother that people
9:00
were being held at six years, and get
9:02
a. Good and in this case for
9:05
whatever role as day's happened, it really matched
9:07
yeah see movies as it turns
9:09
out that pseudoscience is correct, not
9:12
as me and he. Will be guess, he says,
9:14
so in the nineteen
9:17
sixties he moved to
9:19
Paris, he's in his
9:21
late teens and early twenties, his
9:24
father bankrolls his
9:27
lodging, his clothing, he buys
9:29
him. A Mercedes all kinds of, stuff
9:32
and Karl Lagerfeld moves into the world
9:34
of fashion alongside you Sandler
9:37
on oh who became a really close
9:39
friend and us some time sort. Of
9:41
rival of his okay in
9:43
nineteen fifty four he won
9:45
the International Will Mark Prize
9:47
which was very prestigious at that
9:49
time. in fashion the judges
9:52
were balmain and she won't see
9:54
it from citizenship but go The
10:00
late sixty Use he
10:02
started working for Sandy.
10:05
And was hired on to modernize their phone
10:07
line and, ex
10:10
The more you Sixties statement gas
10:12
he works at Sandy for
10:15
the rest of. His life, he was there until
10:17
he died, oh, in sort of part time
10:19
role, and in nineteen eighty three,
10:21
he added another job when he became the creative
10:24
director. Of sure now. Where
10:26
he stayed for thirty six years
10:29
he, was about ten years after the
10:31
day The coco chanel and
10:33
people saw the brand as one that was. Sort.
10:35
Of on it's way out, yes, and
10:37
he took the brim it in new direction

he started doing ready to wear stuff from Chanel,
10:42
which is had not done before and.
10:44
, was credited with revising
10:46
the Browns, it's like how abercrombie and Fitch
10:49
was some we're hunting brand, and
10:51
then in the nineties they were like, "Let's move over to gay"
10:53
baiting a minute because as insists.

11:01
new york times described

11:05
of these designers who are speaking
11:07
exclusively with their own voice
11:10
rate and have very strong perspectives
11:12
and that the appeal of karl lagerfeld
11:14
was that he could be this kind of chameleon
11:17
and he could go to different brands
11:19

11:22

17:34
reverse. Of like you can have pet

when you've proven you're responsible enough to take care
17:38
of it proves you're not making society
17:40
worse sit, on. the third
17:44

17:46
sort of life in fairly broad
17:48
brush strokes rates and his
17:50
cats life and even broader strip

a level two level three.
19:01
Or it would now we've bash Russian
19:04
man what's the next group was,
19:06
just as data on. child
19:09
ah you've got sat mothers
19:11
with their bags of chips Sitting in front of
19:13
the television and saying that sin models
19:15
are ugly, the world a beautiful
19:17
clothing. Is about dreams and illusions.
19:20
Again. No pointlessly mean yep
19:22
that's right", he also said in that same interview
19:25
quote: "No one wants to see curvy
19:27
women I'll tell you who begs
19:29
to differ and that is pornography. Websites
19:32
yes also it's inaccurate, just empirically
19:34
inaccurate, it's not true, yeah,
19:37
and I mean also you think, like quite a bit
19:39
of the stuff that Karl Lagerfeld did
19:41
and said. In the press. Was
19:44
just stating how things work.
19:46
The fashion industry base, like he
19:48
would talk about not wanting sat people to,
19:50
whereas close because nobody wants to look at them, but
19:53
also.
19:54
None of the other couture houses were designing
19:56
anything for plus I be bright and don't
19:58
think any of them do now. Right, right
20:00
aside from occasion. Not casting
20:03
and runway shows that he was it. Sort
20:05
of thing it out loud and that was
20:07
the part that people often. responded
20:10
to Sway Hazard of a Mixed reaction
20:12
to All of This Race For", he says. The terrible
20:15
things and he gets held accountable, but also
20:17
sort of unintended side effect. Then. Of that
20:20
is that he become sort of scapegoat and
20:22
Weezer walk away with the impression that, like other
20:25
designers are somehow better because they're
20:27
not saying it in the press. Right
20:29
because it the other houses, if you ask
20:31
them, why do you have plus sized people
20:33
in your shows, they would give you some euphemism
20:35
bullshit our brand as particular?
20:38
Look, and our traditions go back long
20:40
way in this is what we're called "blah, blah takes
20:42
Blair lot of effort to become size inclusive
20:45
and we want to become sure that we're doing it right we're
20:47
not ever gonna doing it whereas if
20:49
you're just like yeah to like looking at that people as bad
20:51
people suck the as basically their beliefs
20:53
they're just saying it in is completely different way or like
20:55
making excuses in addition to all of that
20:57
see in the press said
21:00
That Adele was quote a little
21:02
too fat, oh, fuck
21:04
off. And then he opposed. The I'll
21:07
tell her and said his
21:09
remarks were taken out of context because
21:11
he was really talking about Lana Del
21:13
Rey famously. to
21:15
fact it's is really immature way
21:18
to be public figure yet another
21:20
these kinds of quotes attract more
21:22
journalists because they know that anger good
21:24
quotes out of you and they know that they're
21:26
going to get clicks on their stories and attention
21:28
on their stories because you're not saying something boring
21:30
and an anti And it's minimum
21:32
of three.
21:33
Then. Story is raised, it's like you say something
21:35
fucked up about a person or community
21:37
that person or community response,
21:39
and then you respond to their response, yeah,
21:42
so here are. "A bunch of those minute I'm just gonna
21:44
do some quick hits of like personal insults,
21:46
sliding glass lightning round", he said,
21:48
"Heidi klum was quote too heavy
21:51
and has to" Be bust to be runway
21:53
mod. He, he said, that
21:55
Kate Middleton was romantic beauty, but that
21:57
he didn't like Pippa Middleton face, and she
21:59
said. Only show her back
22:02
cause, he said that lady di. The
22:04
quote so pretty and so sweet. That
22:06
she was stupid uncle and
22:08
about Seal Hunt from them
22:10
partner for my yard quote: "I am no dermatologist,
22:13
but I want my God the mine looks better
22:15
than his see is covered in craters
22:18
why this is like middle schools
22:21
dollars. nonsense
22:23
he also picked a fight with Merrill. The
22:25
reproaching maybe I'm.
22:28
adele after Adele Seal
22:31
after. Maple Street to
22:33
the throw in beyond say that pseudonymous
22:36
sister lives, he told women's
22:38
wear daily that he'd been working on Oscar's
22:40
address for Meryl Streep, but that.
22:42
One of her wraps called him and said
22:44
that he didn't need to anymore because. They. Found someone
22:46
who would pay her to wear the dress
22:49
time so in women's wear
22:51
daily, he said quote genius actress
22:54
but cheapness also know later,
22:57
said that he misunderstood. And that wasn't true,
22:59
but that was, like, after the interview went out,
23:02
meryl Streep released statement saying that he
23:04
had quote unquote defamed her
23:06
am for designer that she chose. It's
23:09
dick behavior it's his book behavior
23:11
total dick behavior. we
23:13
are now going to move into
23:16
extremely bananas
23:18
racism or is it Really problematic
23:20
in this level to with you.
23:22
The a choice prime see problematic
23:25
assess, this is photo
23:27
shoot that he did with claudia Schiffer
23:29
in twenty ten.
23:32
Oh, wow, oh, that's okay.
23:34
Yellow face and blackface lot
23:37
like it's a black and white saying sort of like.
23:39
The portfolios and it's
23:41
different look so one she's like, sort
23:44
of office lady and one she's
23:46
Marie Antoinette. Then in
23:48
one she's like a. an asian
23:51
lady in than any other ones you
23:52
The black lady, yeah, it's like a horse
23:54
is an afro like some block size aunts
23:57
is not grass pretty bad enough.
24:00
The US. He said this about
24:02
Michelle Obama.
24:04
I was just gonna say it's after he went after
24:06
Adela Merrill three was like who's next Michelle
24:08
Obama other.
24:10
than others have lived for joy mean here
24:12
it is i'm so sorry that i be
24:15
rebus god It was my
24:17
favorite lot. Of Mrs Obama is when
24:19
a journalist as her she thought her skirts were
24:21
not too tight and she answered, "Why don't you
24:23
like my big black ass this
24:25
is line I admire she got me with that?"
24:28
That. That's not a real quote, please
24:30
read the next court that I just say, oh, okay, christina
24:33
Shake, director of communications for First Lady
24:35
Michelle Obama, has released a statement regarding
24:38
Lagerfeld. Comment saying Mrs Obama
24:40
never made that statement select
24:42
so he fabricated and event in which
24:45
black lady said, "Why don't you like my
24:47
big black ass either this
24:49
is something?" He invented whole cloth slim
24:51
deeply racist brain or.
24:54
it's an anecdote that somebody else
24:57
told yeah and he believed it with
24:59
deeply risa spraying also michelle
25:01
obama skirts or Hey,
25:04
like the whole premise of the. Story of the make any sense
25:06
it's weird, she dressed
25:09
beautifully, I think, budget.
25:11
Really pretty conservatively, as First
25:13
Lady's tend to do now, we
25:16
are now moving in
25:18
to the industrial string. Clear
25:20
the room shit in.
25:23
Peter Robinson, when he said
25:25
a thing that is little bit confusing, but definitely
25:28
both deeply as lama phobia.
25:31
Oh, now and deeply anti Semitic.
25:34
In France he's talking. About Angle
25:36
Miracle who he was not fan
25:39
of mostly. around her
25:42
immigration policies which he thought were all
25:44
too lax and too permissive and that's
25:46
from germany was like losing sense of self
25:48
the german argument amongst the far right in
25:50
germany yes see allowed in
25:52
roughly one million syrian refugees
25:55
in country of eighty million people i'm so
25:57
sorry for making you read this and here we go
25:59
one
26:00
The not even if they're decades between
26:02
them kill millions of Jews so
26:04
you can bring millions of their worst enemies
26:06
in the place I know someone in Germany
26:08
who took a young. The Syrian and after four days
26:10
said the greatest thing Germany
26:13
invented.
26:13
When the Holocaust holy
26:16
shit right so,
26:18
he's saying the young Syrian
26:20
was saying.
26:22
That the greatest thing Germany invented
26:24
with the whole of us all.
26:27
Then he's fucking saying this isn't.
26:29
The see a lot of reactionary rhetoric. Then.
26:31
Really, oh, it's not me, it's Syrian refugees
26:34
hate Jews, Syrian refugees hate gays,
26:36
this is the dave Chappelle trans people
26:38
bullied my trans friends into
26:40
dying by suicide, yeah, he's
26:42
using. A minority group to
26:45
stigmatize another one yeah so
26:47
after this talk show
26:49
appearance where he says this rapes
26:52
he also drew a political
26:54
cartoon that. was published
26:57
in say magazine
26:59
in germany it
27:01
showed Hitler thinking
27:04
single merc. Oh. My God,
27:07
the well, Merkel says, "What
27:09
have I done even a good joke
27:11
percent even them, but the same political cartoon
27:14
it is magic trick rhetorically
27:16
speaking to be like?" What if
27:19
people who support people of other
27:21
races laughs are the real
27:23
Nazi out that that's
27:25
why everyone hates Hitler because he was nice to minorities,
27:28
okay, are you ready for? More industrial
27:30
strength who are so
27:32
Karl Lagerfeld had some things
27:34
to say about
27:37
model setting boundaries will start
27:39
there he. said I
27:41
read somewhere that now you must ask.
27:43
For model if she's comfortable with posing
27:46
it's simply too much from now on as
27:48
designer you can't do anything if you don't
27:50
want your pants pulled about don't become a model
27:52
join nunnery there's always place for
27:54
you in convent meet A.
27:57
after he said that rose mcgowan called
27:59
for
28:00
boycott OF CHANEL We I'm just
28:02
like sure I don't will continue
28:04
to boycott Chanel gather some
28:07
real. social justice warrior here are reason
28:09
if a lot of course clothing from
28:11
chanel It's really interesting, has A?
28:13
These quotes and I learned we read them after
28:15
having read his biography I.
28:18
was just thinking about how
28:20
if you how's of parents
28:23
who is as intensely
28:26
judgmental and rejecting as
28:28
his mom was i could see
28:30
how you get to what are you complaining about never
28:32
complained added the old man just
28:34
figured well right like that's like not an uncommon
28:37
response sam sort of came to
28:39
think of him as a guy who now The
28:41
had chance, but also never wanted
28:43
chance, this is also challenge.
28:45
"The social progress in some way because
28:48
there's always a population of people who
28:50
lived during the time that you're trying to change,
28:53
yet think of something like spanking your kids"
28:56
You're saying will spanking your kids as. That of people
28:58
probably shouldn't do it anymore. The there's massive
29:00
population of tens of.
29:01
Millions. Of people who like what I got spanked feel
29:03
like yes that's that's, what
29:05
we were trying to say in select that's the problem
29:08
guess so Michael have
29:11
a little. Tiny pallet cleanser for you
29:13
to thank God I have a fondness for sweatpants,
29:16
oh yeah, I don't know you feel about sweatpants
29:18
in am right now delightful, well,
29:20
you'll be glad. To know what Pearl Lagerfeld
29:22
has to say about sweatpants oh yes,
29:26
this is as sweat
29:28
pants or a sign of deceased You
29:30
lost control of your life that you bought you.
29:32
Sweat pants that's true in my absolutely,
29:36
accurate, I take like everything said
29:38
about him. previously anyway
29:41
sisters so that the
29:43
public legacy and karl lagerfeld
29:45
i'm so sorry it is Remember
29:48
saying that the fashion industry
29:50
didn't drum this guy out years
29:52
ago rights, it's always so weird
29:55
to me when industries hold on
29:57
to figures like this for so long
29:59
as it's.
30:00
So irreplaceable, can you just get
30:02
someone doesn't really say anything?
30:04
Publicly about Hitler except he's
30:06
bad, yeah, I mean, the okay
30:09
far are you ready to dig
30:11
in to the Karl Lagerfeld
30:13
diet book Time, yes,
30:15
first things first am going
30:17
to?
30:18
Oh, up a picture of the cover,
30:21
have you seen the cover of the Karl Lagerfeld, I have
30:23
no? There you go.
30:25
Any genes times gauges as this
30:28
book cut jeans over the booths
30:31
is that would put that means the swastika or.
30:33
The your boots like the theater like
30:35
skinny jeans, it and bell bottoms,
30:37
it looks insane years ago. Losses
30:39
on it looks like their spats
30:42
it looks like he's wearing a denim despair it's
30:45
I'm. not into That also discovered the so
30:47
is this book. One
30:49
release in two thousand and two in Germany
30:52
and two thousand and five and the U.S. so it's also
30:54
like different never from time Where
30:56
is he short king, he is nuts,
30:59
Vegas, five eleven, I thought he
31:01
was one of my people but also his issue?
31:04
precisely that. i'm
31:06
not sitting on the t on a
31:08
Oh, it says the Karl Lagerfeld die
31:10
at San hose, and I guess the offer
31:13
it's as Doctor Jean Claude, mood Ray",
31:15
yes, Sir Karl Lagerfeld didn't write
31:17
it, he did not right.
31:19
What? Did he design the diet he went
31:21
to the doctor Frank and he said
31:23
he wanted to be quote unquote a perfect clotheshorse
31:26
at hundred and thirty two pounds and
31:28
five? eleven Wow that's then
31:31
that is thin, so that is what we're seeing
31:33
on this cover, presumably is that
31:35
weights raids. The so
31:38
he. lost ninety two Home
31:40
in about thirteen months is his claim
31:43
doing this die as. What he doesn't
31:45
talk about very much publicly is that he
31:47
started putting on way. When his
31:49
partner died oh his partner
31:51
was jock he tested positive
31:53
for HIV in nineteen eighty four and
31:56
died in nineteen eighty nine in.
31:58
his final days By all accounts
32:01
he sort of self isolated quite bit and
32:03
only allowed Carl to visit him and,
32:06
Carl had an extra bad
32:08
or caught split in his hospital room
32:10
so he could stay around the clock.
32:13
so this is league potentially
32:15
to be links rate the psych major
32:17
traumatic events it's also so
32:19
frustrating to me that people can go through experiences
32:22
like this
32:23
Somehow not pick up empathy
32:25
along the way, yeah, if
32:27
you've gained weight after a traumatic
32:30
event, you think okay zooming out
32:32
obviously this person's going to have more
32:34
empathy.
32:35
Of like fat people see I know
32:37
it's so rough to read about it because you're
32:39
like boy. oh boy my heart
32:41
breaks that's a horrible experience
32:44
and then after that
32:46
is when he started all of his media trolling
32:49
shit has so
32:52
I read the. entirety
32:55
Of the karl Lagerfeld the at it,
32:58
was fun at times
33:01
and mostly just an astonishing
33:03
waste of my time did you did you make
33:05
any recipes I'd made no reference?
33:08
Because don't have a rabbit to braise
33:10
that I have as a business
33:12
as fancy and so friends and
33:15
still so joyous, book
33:18
itself as a. Non Karl Lagerfeld
33:20
branded but it's written by Jean
33:22
Claude who. dray there are two
33:25
different forwards one written
33:27
by each of them and they take
33:29
totally different tax zone
33:32
clotted raise is all about the obesity
33:34
epidemic and how diet like this will help
33:36
fight it seems scientists from
33:38
what he sees as individuals bad choices
33:41
he talks about how like sadness didn't
33:43
used to be problem in france but
33:45
now french women are eating like americans
33:48
so they're getting fat like americans
33:51
And he also sort of seems like he's
33:53
gonna be compassionate about it more and
33:55
then it. Here's what he has to
33:57
say. The about fat people
33:59
in that for?
34:00
The word how know he.
34:02
says overweight people were more
34:04
and more numerous or paradoxically
34:06
the unloved of our time They are rejected,
34:09
sometimes insulted, if discriminated against,
34:11
and they have more difficulty than others and fine.
34:13
The work and their place in society if
34:15
they don't end up. Isolating themselves, they
34:18
find themselves, I see. The by others. The
34:20
by us. The problem is
34:22
a problem that.
34:23
Why? You gotta get then don't,
34:26
make things better for fat people just get yourself
34:28
out of there I love thing where they just mention
34:30
wait stigma in these books and then. Just like do
34:32
nothing with it, like
34:35
fat people stigma entirely wait
34:37
you're how nothing the fat and why fat
34:39
people. suck and where
34:42
longer for meanwhile
34:45
is entirely about vanity
34:47
nice
34:48
And it is absolute fucking
34:50
word salad, oh yeah, this
34:52
is a. Longer quo. That
34:55
is a moment where I kind of appreciate
34:57
him first being honest with readers
34:59
about where he's coming from, it's as
35:01
if you attach no importance to weight problems,
35:04
if not being able to or new trendy
35:06
small size closed, as not cause you any.
35:08
The read this book is. The for you.
35:11
Hope reasons are an excellent motive for losing weight
35:13
and for some they are truly vital but.
35:16
If you are lucky enough not to need.
35:17
Go on a diet for such reasons there's nothing
35:20
to stop you from pretending to others that health
35:22
is indeed your motivation order.
35:24
to avoid having Explain to them that
35:26
your true. Deeper motives. Have
35:28
nothing to do with health at least it's
35:30
not this and. The US right
35:32
honey actually, Aubrey, how do you feel
35:35
about this about people who
35:37
do restrict fuel, food research and exercise
35:39
whatever they like I want have a six pack Amazon
35:41
the next six months doing that, I mean? feel like
35:44
with all of the stuff like the people get to.
35:46
Whatever they want with their bodies and if
35:48
they want to pursue bodybuilding
35:51
or weight loss or whatever like
35:53
go to town I. don't
35:55
particularly mind i do feel
35:57
often like People are not
35:59
in. Touch with their actual motivations
36:02
for throwing stuff like Rez, race
36:04
and people who go I'm doing this for my
36:06
health and I'll go, oh, what's? Then they're like
36:08
a particular health condition, is there something in
36:10
the like snow I just need to like, get health?
36:12
Then. United way healthy and know, and
36:15
I'm like would honestly prefer in that
36:17
case of these his health with man feel
36:19
like I'm fatter than want to be. Him personally
36:22
have a preference for that because then, at least, it's
36:24
honest and I can meet them with my own honesty
36:26
and say that's fine, don't really want to. Hear
36:28
about it that okay rights but like we're
36:31
all in the honesty together rate versus
36:34
if you say to someone who's sort of doing
36:36
this a more fests I.
36:38
want to lose weight quote unquote for my health sir
36:40
broadly right if i then
36:43
say hey don't really want to talk
36:45
to you about this person like will
36:47
often than have an outsize reaction of like
36:49
don't you care about my health don't you care that i'm
36:51
doing something good for my celebrates the
36:53
blue back as much
36:55
Then. Waiter, I find when
36:57
folks are less honest and grounded
36:59
about it with themselves, or there's
37:01
also a mean one of the problems
37:03
with the house disguise
37:05
that lot of this. vanity stuff, where's
37:08
is that it then implies universal
37:10
rule that everybody has to be thin biggest
37:13
sin, is healthy, whereas you
37:15
could descend, see, I want to get a six?
37:17
Pack saying: "As well, yeah, you
37:19
ever go for yourself is the same way like
37:21
I want to be able to run a ten k or the into
37:23
the. Irena really care of anybody else from that
37:25
and case I'm doing. This is a hobby, yeah,
37:28
hopefully maybe it's potentially
37:30
not going to. them to like
37:32
be city to other people who don't have the same. The goal,
37:35
yeah, but it also plays into the idea
37:37
that this is like public
37:39
acts of moral rightness,
37:42
life and that is social interaction,
37:44
the I have no desire to participate, as
37:46
yeah, have no desire.
37:49
To congratulate people on
37:51
the accident and privilege of their
37:53
health friends, I have no desire
37:56
to participate in a conversation that these
37:58
I'll use body like mine. And
38:00
lists up bodies that I have never had
38:02
and that I've always been. That idea that's
38:04
the part that is hardest for me is not
38:06
what. There are people do with their bodies is
38:09
how they want to engage me, but
38:11
there's also, guess, the argument that
38:13
focusing on your own vanity
38:15
distract you from.
38:17
Who is creating a standards of vanity
38:19
biggest, another thing that he could do, I mean,
38:21
if he's acknowledging the
38:23
think reality that in the fact.
38:25
Then. Industry he will lose
38:27
standing as a fat person, one
38:30
reaction to that is like, "Why should lose ninety pounds,
38:33
another reaction to that is like, "Will the fashion
38:35
industry should be?" More inclusive of people who aren't
38:37
ninety pounds skinnier than me see, and I
38:40
curl Lagerfeld have a fuck ton of power
38:42
right what would it look like to try to create?
38:45
Change I, was gonna say he might have
38:47
done that we didn't see it, but that are like he definitely
38:49
didn't fucking do that he doesn't have yeah but he
38:51
did. Your hitler can! even
38:53
with the same like i'm trying to get six
38:55
pack by january first there
38:57
is question in wide is that open
38:59
opportunities for me but i wouldn't have
39:02
otherwise he does that send begs the question who
39:04
doesn't have those opportunities yeah emanating
39:06
such rates also think he
39:08
leans really fucking hard
39:11
into dieting is a process
39:13
whereby you can make yourself who you really
39:16
are oh don't
39:17
Now is ruining it for years ago for you
39:21
it. is a lie to think that Parents does
39:23
not matter.
39:24
The day it allows you to live in harmony
39:26
with your some of it.
39:27
The do not need to be a philosophical
39:29
explanation, nor all those excuses
39:32
behind. People often feel the need to take
39:34
refuge. A diet can help us.
39:36
Discover or define our real personality,
39:38
we are what we used to be, not
39:41
where we have become.
39:42
It is often possible to go back with a new
39:44
beginning, different and encouraging
39:46
one, this is fucking Mary and William's.
39:48
This is refrigerator magnets hold.
39:51
up put on of for
39:53
It is a soup I don't even own, he's talking
39:55
about, don't totally understand, by been
39:57
pretty sure like fully deeply
39:59
does. The great yeah, don't think that
40:01
die it's help you. They discovered
40:04
their real person. Now. At ease, for
40:06
example, just sent you the
40:08
last couple of lines of that quote, it
40:10
was three times as law, know my God
40:12
and ten times as incoherent of
40:14
the. "Stuff hurts, but it also indicates a he doesn't, he
40:17
doesn't actually like know why he's doing this",
40:19
he does say about the diet itself
40:21
and about dieting, he says, quote from.
40:23
Me diet without complicated instructions
40:26
is not diet, it has to be
40:28
sort of. Punishment something that
40:30
you have to do even if you haven't
40:32
impose that on yourself at it as sock
40:35
forever it, out of
40:37
it does And he says is
40:39
also in this forward, he says that. Sort
40:41
of expects to the way that he puts it is that he
40:43
needs to quote unquote follow.
40:45
this diet for the rest of his life i mean
40:47
again it's on us that seems to be the
40:50
headline with this book there are numerous
40:52
studies of people that have taken off wait significant
40:54
amounts of weight and kept it off and Then.
40:57
Main through line is ongoing
40:59
restriction, never ending research and, and
41:01
a ton of exercise, yeah, our
41:03
two hours day exercise like forever
41:06
or in the case of like people
41:08
who. Are on the biggest loser four to
41:10
six hours of exercise, yeah, they and you still
41:13
regained wait, you just have to be hungry,
41:15
thirsty, glass sicily talk about what
41:17
the. Actual diet is so, yeah, gimme
41:19
recipes on I'm grandma. It is hold
41:22
the spoon. Light program
41:25
can no joke they don't even
41:27
start. Discussing the
41:29
diet itself until.
41:30
The age eighty two nice that's
41:33
like us in this episode Earth.
41:35
There's so much book
41:38
before their his diet the. day
41:40
it is basically just a very low fat low calorie
41:42
diet there's no red meat there's no
41:44
alcohol karl lagerfeld
41:46
also says that it's helped him to stay
41:48
on the diet by knowing that if
41:51
he wants to eat something he can just put
41:53
it in his mouth and then spit it out
41:55
isn't that like some anorexia does
41:57
not like an eating disorder than the lot
41:59
of what
42:00
Going to talk about is not great
42:02
oh the diet has unlimited diet
42:04
soda, which was good for Car Lagerfeld
42:06
because he reportedly drank ten diet
42:08
cokes a day oh my God, but also
42:10
he was sponsored by Diet Pepsi
42:13
oh there for has. One
42:15
would want penis quote, endless capsules.
42:18
If to take multi vitamin, you have to take spear
42:20
alina. Why you're supposed to seek to
42:22
saying you're also supposed
42:24
to have multiple proteins, Sashays
42:27
each day.
42:29
Would you like to know where you
42:31
can get the protein packets and the supplements
42:33
oh God is it like on the psalms lilies a like one
42:36
like one shop in Paris the cells
42:38
never know?
42:40
it's french business called laborious
42:43
war son racks okay would
42:45
you like to know who the chief medical
42:47
advisor is The laboratory
42:50
son racks.
42:51
Is it Jean Claude who dragged out,
42:55
of he's like promoting his own products?
42:58
that out itself is also really fucking
43:00
confusing if i'm honest There
43:02
are three different levels,
43:04
but he doesn't really say. Like
43:07
supposed to do which level so high level.
43:10
"The we are you can do for several
43:12
months", he says, "that's twelve
43:14
hundred, sixteen hundred calories a day"
43:17
Level. To which is where Karl Lagerfeld
43:19
spent most of his time you can do for several
43:21
months with medical supervision that once
43:24
a thousand to twelve hundred calories
43:26
per day and, Level
43:28
one is eight to nine hundred
43:30
calories per day room and he says
43:32
he should only do that one for two to three weeks. i
43:36
mean you'll lose weight seizure well
43:38
as can't stick to it very
43:40
long you'll be miserable and grumpy and you'll
43:42
get any work done he also
43:44
says on this diet
43:46
you are not supposed to get
43:49
exercise That's
43:53
a weird vasily. The three thing too,
43:55
because you don't want to have muscles, you wanna be
43:57
just reedy and sense of close.
44:00
Hang on you don't do that but
44:02
it's even better than that there's
44:04
a quote for yeah oh God OK it's,
44:07
as it is unreasonable to ask
44:09
someone on diet to undergo any specific
44:12
exercise regime. firstly
44:14
because you have to really were yourself out
44:16
to burn calories and secondly because
44:19
exercise runs the risk of meeting you hungry
44:22
to sum up little more walking and taking
44:24
the stairs instead of the elevator won't do you
44:26
any harm but forcing yourself
44:28
into action won't do you any good
44:31
Or physical activity is concerned there's only one
44:33
rule do what you feel like.
44:35
After we say I.
44:39
mean I do for very like
44:42
no no, you can't.
44:43
If exercise because when you exercise, I don't know if
44:45
you know this, you get hungry. So,
44:47
but then he also includes this whole mess of
44:49
things that burn calories.
44:52
He says you can burn a hundred forty calories
44:54
and hour by painting room. One
44:57
hundred and thirty calories in our by sewing.
45:00
Two. Hundreds and eighty calories in our by playing
45:02
the piano and, hundred
45:04
and sixty calories in our by shopping
45:07
sites that is walking into shopping
45:09
is any different than walking. But this
45:11
also nsaids it's totally fucking
45:13
vague, but I love that he's like, you
45:16
know, hypothetically if someone who did this diet
45:18
maybe someone who's on the cover of this. Book wanted
45:20
to do a bunch of sewing and shopping jasper
45:23
and some calories as have another thing of. us didn't
45:26
somewhat karl lagerfeld hobbies burn
45:28
calories he talks about side effects
45:32
Hunger and fatigue and like constipation
45:35
then the all the sort of stuff and he like but,
45:39
you know that will all stop if you just follow
45:41
the diet correctly that's not true.
45:44
it's wrong this is like the primary
45:46
mano myth of diet is
45:48
that you'll read some sort of plateau
45:51
at which point this restriction gets
45:53
easier but them they're searching it's harder
45:55
your body fights back is never a
45:57
point at which Or nine hundred.
46:00
Hillary's he like move your hunger
46:02
anymore it's like you're fucking a hair start falling out in
46:04
clumps he also says that
46:06
you might start feeling cold all
46:08
the time and I'm like yeah that somebody
46:11
around, here near to death. any
46:15
says you might have some hair loss
46:17
and you might lose your period but those
46:19
are both those things are reversible don't worry about
46:21
super sustainable once you become
46:24

49:10
add subtract, stop fall on believable.
49:12
It is fully like twenty
49:15
page product catalog
49:17
at the end of the book that's disappointing
49:20
sites, that's the point. The
49:22
border now I'm and now I'm livid definitely,.
49:26
i will say there has been pre Men
49:30
last few years as people, sir, doug
49:32
this up. But. At the time
49:34
there was a writer for the New York Times, he decided
49:37
to try the Karl Lagerfeld diet
49:39
and rude about as and this, and then they died
49:42
it's A. Really good, funny,
49:44
like straight up, take down of
49:47
toss about doing the diet and how the protein
49:49
sashays have to be mixed with blender,
49:52
oh, so she talks about. Taking whole last
49:54
fucking blender. The into
49:56
the offices of the New York Times.
49:59
By day three.
50:01
On a diet she starts describing parties
50:04
as quotes busby, Berkeley
50:06
scale fantasy sequences of
50:08
denial.
50:10
"Many snatched because she's only do and nine hundred calories
50:13
a day see can't eat shit
50:15
now", she says as he did.
50:16
The diet for two weeks and lost
50:19
five pounds, that's probably dangerous,
50:21
probably not breaks, yeah.
50:24
Then we did, she describes it, is like a car. June
50:26
where someone watches person turn into like
50:29
turkey leg or like cupcake something
50:31
that other of us so
50:33
as this diet book is sort of resurfaced
50:36
is out of print now it's hard to find
50:39
I. paid an inordinate amount of
50:41
money for the copy that i have so don't
50:43
do and really yeah was like sixty bucks
50:46
now we're is out of
50:48
whack him demands but your
50:50
lou Than five pounds every two weeks sustainable.
50:53
People notice a specific names such
50:55
as others do this for ten more years
50:57
and then I'll be little. piece
50:59
of other physicists that you have
51:02
series of what actually happened
51:04
Because I'm thinking that like that.
51:06
Dr. went to Karl Lagerfeld
51:08
and was like, "I wanna write a book promoting my products,
51:11
let me slap your name on it" That feels very
51:13
possible", Karl Lagerfeld also. Hawks.
51:15
In press and in the book about
51:17
how bunch of people think he just had we
51:19
lost surgery, oh, okay, interesting
51:22
that to lose ninety pounds in
51:24
thirteen months is really.
51:26
Significance: Yeah, there's no real
51:29
evidence either way, it's yeah,
51:31
this thing about like Doctor Who dragged
51:33
created this diet for Karl
51:36
Lagerfeld, it's like to patently false
51:38
rate like that seems. "Like no way I don't
51:40
buy it and also it seems like it's a
51:42
tough written by this random Dr.
51:44
Karl Lagerfeld wrote totally incoherence
51:47
forward, but it's clear that Karl"
51:49
Lagerfeld had any other creative
51:52
input into this book at all, yeah,
51:54
I think that's probably true. He wrote
51:56
the foreword, which is like for pay.
51:58
They do a slight. The gobbledygook
52:00
nonsense. The only four pages long
52:03
it's.
52:05
What? Are you just might actually generous I think it's
52:07
like Santa hats and,
52:09
he provides these little quotes
52:11
that are like three sentences and each chapter
52:14
and their highlighted in these? Will pull out boxes
52:17
the you're like, ooh, years with Karl Lagerfeld as to
52:19
say, and then it's fucking terrible
52:21
nonsense again and he might not even are written
52:23
those for for. For for. us
52:25
right that's right there so there
52:27
you have it i will give the final
52:30
word to a The nutritionist
52:32
with cooking light who wrote this? About
52:35
the Karl Lagerfeld diet and twenty nineteen
52:37
bottom line this, is really
52:39
just another quick six diet plan that
52:41
worked for celebrity and is very likely
52:43
to be hard to implement for the average person
52:46
living an average life yeah it's tabloid
52:48
it's not way to live as you think the whole thing
52:50
as ghosts written by prologue er folk pop
