Karl Lagerfeld's Hate List

7. Greece and Italy

"You can't be sure the money will go where it's supposed to go. Nobody wants Greece to disappear, but they have really disgusting habits - Italy as well," he once told Metro World News. Ok, now that was a slap in the face of the two Mediterranean states, which admittedly screwed up a tad financially in the past few years. Also, easy to hate Italy and Greece for someone who is on a diet of Diet coke and Cabbage soup. The rest of us tend to like the Greek and Italian habits of eating pasta and gyros, and sipping Campari and wine on the gorgeous beaches of those countries. Also, philosophy, gelato and democracy seem like some pretty good inventions. [Photo via]
