so sick of all the needless needing...

By request, here comes some more life reports your way.

So Pudgy Peter has become even more undesirable. He's a loser that obviously doesn't understand the fact that no one likes him, so he is a loser that's mean to people. Not to mention his redciulously hipocritical "gangsta" outfit today. Who told him that pale white kids are allowed to wear enormous jerseys and *shudder* bling.
I have to go to this stupid political film festival with my parents on Friday, any takers? It's going to be insanely boring alone, but with someone we could take beyond cliche myspace pictures at the Design Center! Now wouldn't that be fun!

DESIGNER PROFILE - Karl Lagerfeld

"Only the minute and the future are interesting in fashion - it exists to be destroyed. If everybody did everything with respect, you'd go nowhere."

A Catholic baptismal record indicates his birth date as 10 September 1933 but Lagerfeld states he was born in 1938, as all people in fashion should fight for those few extra years.

He made his name as an independent creator who collaborated with a variety of different fashion labels, including Chloé, Fendi and Chanel. In the early 1980s he set up his own label, called Lagerfeld, which launched perfumes and clothing lines. He has also played a role in equipping leading artists.

Together with his mother, Karl Lagerfeld emigrated to Paris in 1953. In 1955, at the age of 22, Lagerfeld was awarded a position at Pierre Balmain, after winning a competition for a coat sponsored by the International Wool Secretariat. Yves Saint Laurent also won the contest for a dress award. "Yves was working for Dior. Other young people I knew were working for Balenciaga, whom they thought was God, but I wasn't so impressed," he recalled in 1976.

After three years he moved to Jean Patou. "I became bored there, too, and I quit and tried to go back to school, but that didn't work, so I spent two years mostly on beaches -- I guess I studied life."

With money from his wealthy family, he set up a small shop in Paris. At this time, he would often consult with Madame Zereakian, Christian Dior's Turkish fortune teller. Lagerfeld later said, "She told me I'd suceed in fashion and perfume."

In the early 1990s he once employed strippers and an Italian adult film star to model his black-and-white collection for Fendi. He has produced legendary pieces like the shower-dress, with beaded water streaming down the front; a car-dress with a radiator grille and fender, and a multitude of outstandingly eccentric hats.

Lagerfeld, along with Calvin Klein, was the target of a pieing by PETA in 2001 at a fashion premiere at Lincoln Center in New York City.[1]

In 2004 he designed some outfits for the international music artist's Madonna Re-Invention Tour, and recently designed outfits for Kylie Minogue's Showgirls Tour.

Recently, Lagerfeld collaborated with the international Swedish fashion brand H&M. On 12 November 2004 H&M offered a limited range of different Lagerfeld clothes in chosen outlets for both women and men. Only two days after having supplied its outlets, H&M announced that almost all the clothes were sold out. Lagerfeld has expressed a lack of fear that working with lower-end brands will taint his image, although in the past he has worked closely with the exclusive hosiery designer Wolford.

Lagerfeld is also a photographer. He produced Visionaire 23: The Emperor's New Clothes, a series of nude pictures of South African model David Miller. Lagerfeld is currently the chief executive of design at the House of Chanel.

The designer was also the subject of a French reality series called "Signé Chanel" in 2005. The show covered the creation of his Fall/Winter 2004-2005 Chanel couture collection. It aired on Sundance Channel in the United States during the fall of 2006.

Lagerfeld is also famous for a dramatic transformation of his body, when he lost around 36 kg (80 pounds) in one year. “I suddenly wanted to dress differently, to wear clothes designed by Hedi Slimane,” he said. “But these fashions, modeled by very, very slim boys—and not men my age—required me to lose at least eighty pounds. It took me exactly thirteen months.”

The diet was created specially for Lagerfeld by Dr. Jean-Claude Houdret, which led to a book called The Karl Lagerfeld Diet
