"   Photo: Alexei Hey for ELLE  As someone who slimmed down on a steady diet of horse meat and Diet Coke, for the sake of fitting into slim Dior suits, Karl Lagerfeld might understand what it&amp;#039;s like to be a size other than sample. But earlier this week, while guest editing the international edition of Metro&amp;#039;s AM paper, the Chanel designer made a dig at Adele&amp;#039;s weight. When asked about Lana Del Rey, Lagerfeld said he preferred singers like Florence Welch and Adele. &amp;quot;As a modern singer she is not bad,&amp;quot; he said of Del Rey. &amp;quot;The thing at the moment is Adele. She is a little too fat, but she has a beautiful face and a divine voice. Lana del Rey is not bad at all. She looks very much like a modern-time singer. In her photos she is beautiful. Is she a construct with all her implants? She&amp;#039;s not alone with implants.&amp;quot; He&amp;#039;s just issued an apology, a rarity for the designer who&amp;#039;s so well loved in part because he always speaks his mind. Lagerfeld took to Metro once again to say, &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;d like to say to Adele that I am your biggest admirer. Sometimes when you take a sentence out of the article it changes the meaning of the thought. What I said was in relation to Lana Del Rey and the sentence has since been taken out of context from how it was originally published. I actually prefer Adele, she is my favorite singer and I am a great admirer of her. I lost over 30 kilos over 10 years ago and have kept it off. I know how it feels when the press is mean to you in regards to your appearance. Adele is a beautiful girl. She is the best. And I can&amp;#039;t wait for her next CD.&amp;quot; Now if Chanel would just hire Adele to perform at their show next month, all will be peachy. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
