What’s the rant about?
Wow, what a shocker John Galliano fired by Dior just a day before Paris Fashion week.
Mr Galliano can be seen blind drunk at La Perle bar in the trendy Marais district of central Paris. The video was made public on Monday.
Slur it out
The video caught Galliano saying: "No, but I love Hitler and people like you would be dead today. Your mothers, your forefathers, would all be gassed and dead.” This is an absolute disgrace if I do say so myself. Just another stunt by someone who thinks they can.
Bad books
Natalie Portman who won award for best actress was about to promote the perfume for Christian Dior. Overwhelmed with what happened, in her own words she said: “I am deeply shocked and disgusted by this, in light of this video and as an individual proud to be Jewish, I will not be associated with Galliano in any way.”
What should Dior do?
Nothing - it wasn’t their fault, they're the ones who should be most angered by Galliano for tarnishing the brand. I still think a sincere apology should be coming from Galliano and not Dior. If they did, it would make them look responsible for his improper actions.
Rumors have it Riccardo Tisci or creative director of Givenchy will be taking the place of Galliano. Maybe this is what The House of Dior wanted all along; any slip up from Galliano would be an immoral way of getting him out the door.
The question is did he really mean to say what he did?
You know the saying “a drunken man’s words, is a sober man’s thoughts.” Of course he meant it! His pathetic excuse for an apology didn’t do him any justice at all. TO THE POINT - it’s just another “superior” wanting a bit of lime light, there’s no better way to boast your celeb factor. I'm pretty sure it will all blow over in a couple of years like any other attention seeking celeb incident.
