John Galliano-Fired from Dior

I didn't believe it until I saw those very ugly words come out of his mouth on youtube. I am still in shock.

I had really hoped the story of John Gallianos' drunken antisemitic remarks had been blown wildly out of proportion, but sadly they weren't.

It's such a shame too. I'm such a huge fan of his art.  No longer of the artist however. 

Apparently, Dior had been making a gown for Natalie Portman to wear to the Oscars (now that she is the new face of Miss Dior Cherie).  But in light of recent events, she decided to wear Rodarte instead. Which is a huge upset for the house of Dior since the Oscars are probably one of the most influential and important events to be represented at. Even more so when your Actress wins.  

The House of Dior has zero tolerance for racism as we all should.  In this day and age, how it continues to exist is beyond me. They are right to fire Galliano.  You just can't behave in such a disgraceful manner.  ESPECIALLY when you are the Brand Ambassador and head designer for one of the finest Couturiers in the industry.

So, who will Dior bring in to repair it's reputation?  What will happen to JG now?

I'm quite curious to see how this ugly tale will continue to unfold.

In the meantime, here is the link if you really want to see.  But be prepared to be offended.
