Chatter: Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld: Twice a week I have to eat meat, which I'm not too crazy about, but it's good for you. You know, the most dangerous diet in the work is macrobiotic. Don't touch that.

Ashley Olsen: I couldn't even think about it!

Karl Lagerfeld: I knew a Finnish girl once, who was stunning. She started [the macrobiotic diet] and one morning she woke up with a pimple. The next day her hair, then her face and her skin - it was all changing. In three weeks it was over -- forever. She could not get the face back. Never.
