...So, because it's the "truth" that Seal has bad skin, which btw is a direct result of his struggle with lupus as a child, that makes it okay for him to say, "I wouldn't want his skin. Mine looks better than his. He is covered in craters." Yeah, he sounds like a real intellectual, that one.
And (paraphasing here) "Heidi is too heavy and has too big a bust." Well, God forbid a model look like a woman!
"And she always grins so stupidly. That is not avant-garde - that is commercial." REALLY, Sherlock?! Of course, Heidi is commercial, I don't know who in fashion is NOT aware of that fact. But...how is that a bad thing? Girl is rolling in the dough.
Not to mention (and this is just my own personal beef with him), but on this French television show, he and Naomie Lenoir were asked if there was racism in the fashion industry. And he absolutely REFUSED to admit that there was. He even tried to rationalize that it is because blacks are not interested in fashion. Seriously? As a black woman who loves fashion, that annoyed the crap out of me.
I've tried to rationalize with it, but there is just no way to defend this man. I still like Caro, Char, Andrea, and Pierre, I just don't understand this particular friend of theirs. But I don't know him, so to each his own. Maybe it's all a public persona to keep up controversy or something. I hope it is and he's a much nicer person away from the camera.
