Natalie Portman Condemns Dior Designer for Anti-Semitic Slurs

At Jerusalem Post, "Portman condemns Dior designer for anti-Semitic words." And New York Times, "Natalie Portman Condemns Galliano‎":

The actress Natalie Portman, who has an endorsement contract with Dior for its Miss Dior Cherie fragrance, has strongly condemned its chief designer, John Galliano, for anti-Semitic remarks after a video surfaced of Mr. Galliano appearing to deliver a tirade in a Paris bar. In a separate incident, he was accused of verbally abusing a French couple last week in the bar. He was suspended Friday from Dior.

In a statement released Monday evening in Los Angeles, Ms. Portman said: “I am deeply shocked and disgusted by the video of John Galliano’s comments that surfaced today. In light of this video, and as an individual who is proud to be Jewish, I will not be associated with Mr. Galliano in any way. I hope at the very least, these terrible comments remind us to reflect and act upon combating these still-existing prejudices that are the opposite of all that is beautiful.”

  1. Whoa, gay fashionista dickheads can be vile racists too?

    The liberal mind must be reeling.

    Oh wait, that assumes they have a mind.

  2. Maybe he can design a porta potty to flush his brain down. Can't wait for the excuses to start flowing.

  3. Norm, that's pretty unreal that Galliano‎ would unload like that. He was drunk I guess, and alcohol's like the truth serum, so it would have come out one way or another.

  4. The women who filmed this wanted this man to get into trouble. I wonder if these women got anything for filming this, by the way? It seems like he was drunk and they were taking pure advantage of that. I don't agree what this man says by any means, but I can't to wonder why these women were bothering him and giggling....he must have been drunk. DUMB WOMEN.
