PHOTO: Kristen Stewart Flips The Bird A Foot Away From Karl Lagerfeld’s Face

by Justin Fenner | 1:28 pm, January 31st, 2012

Call us old fashioned, but we expect people to show their elders some respect — especially when the elder in question is Chanel couturier and hardest-working man in fashion Karl Lagerfeld. We don’t know who raised Kristen Stewart, but whoever they are clearly failed to teach her that very important and valuable lesson.

We know this because of a paparazzi photo making its way around the Internet of Stewart, whom you may have seen in the Twilight movies, flipping the bird less than a foot away from the Kaiser’s face. From the placement of things, it doesn’t look like she’s actually telling Lagerfeld himself to fuck off, but that’s not the point. The point is that there exists in this world a 21 year old who thinks it’s an OK thing to conjure the international “Fuck You” sign in the presence of someone who is not only almost four times her age, but also the genius who’s photographing her for an upcoming issue of Vanity Fair. And that’s just wrong.

And we would say the same of any young person who dared to play middle C in front of someone (anyone) who was so clearly deserving of more respect. Seriously, people. Comport yourselves. We don’t care if you really want to piss off someone you see across the room, as Stewart appears to have done. We don’t care if you’re madder than you’ve been in a decade. Raising the one-fingered salute in front of anyone you regard with even a modicum of respect shows a cavalier lack of deportment, and it’s really nothing more than a telegraph to the world that you just have no home training whatsoever. It’s not funny. And it’s not cute.

Don’t be like Kristen. Put a stop to this childish behavior today.

Please, you really think Karl gives a shit? Come on. They probably snorted lines together minutes before the photo was taken.

yeah, cause when I flip the bird at someone, I flip it past them while smiling at someone else….
C.C.

It’s not even about that she’s in the same room as Karl. Her attitude has always been classless. She acts juvenile and this whole public image makeover is not convincing. She’s a jeans, t-shirt and greasy hair girl. Putting her in Dior Couture isn’t going to change that. Put someone next to Karl who ACTUALLY gives a shit about fashion, not some A-list wannabe who needs acting lessons.
nora

oh please, Karl is the most tacky, judgemental man on this earth, treating pretty boys like pets and talking crap about fat people. Let’s not pretend he’s some genteel southern belle, you drama queens.
yougottalovethemrobessors!

careful c.c., your prsten/nonsten is showing! I love how you guys “assemble” on your little forum, make up your talking points, and then “go forth” and flood every site with the same exact post. You’re like Mormon Missionaries gone viral! lol
R.W.

Same goes for your idol Pattinson.
His attitude has always been classless. did you not hear is “I fcked you” during the MTV awards in front of millions of viewers including children? Go take your meds and snuggle with your Edward pillow.
solamia

hahah, exactly. Karl likes his playthings young, rebellious, androgenous, and scrawny(look to: Baptiste). Kristen is right up his alley, she’s pretty but a little dirty and weird.

I think Justin’s being facetious you guys, he wrote that with a wink…

Jennie Garth flipped a pap in front of her own daughter. “Don’t be like Jennie Garth. Put a stop to this childish behavior today.”

why is Anna Wintour flipping the bird to Karl Lagerfeld? ”Don’t be like
Anna Wintour . Put a stop to this childish behavior today.” http://www.imagebam.com/image/0da62b172541029

I’m not a big fan of flipping the bird. But Karl Lagefeld and Anna Wintour have both been photographed flipping the bird, along with Brad Pitt, Jessica Alba, and others. I’m not a fan of Kristen Stewart either. But why is she being demonized for something that a ton of other celebrities do, some of which are much older than her? Anyway, like I said not a fan but I’m kind of sick of her and Gwyneth being the punching bag of every blogger. Besides, Karl likes them, as others have said, a little trashy so I doubt he gives a flying fuck.
Jack

Said before, not particularly a fan of Kristen Stewart but this is getting blown out of proportion. The Kaiser himself flips people off all the time and has a bit of a bitchy attitude. If anything, I think those two would get along well.
Kay

Someone explain to me why the top pic is classless and the bottom is not

Nevermind. People just love to criticize Kristen for anything. If you don’t like Kristen’s acting fine. But don’t get on this stupid bandwagon about honoring the mighty Karl Lagerfeld the paparazzi’s feelings. Puhlease. *cancels Stylite email subscription*

Glad to see that others agree. This whole brouhaha reeks of sexism. So men flip the bird and it’s not a big deal? Lovely, lovely sexy Michael Fassbender has stuck up his middle finger among others… But when Kristen Stewart does it, she’s being some horrible person? I’m officially sick of the Kristen Stewart backlash.

Justin i lived for when you posted these words of wisdom from la grande dame Michael Kors on your blog:

“Fashion is not for sissies.”

It’s a finger not a machete. It’s not that serious.
Easyboy11

She even disrespects her boyfriend with the other twilight actor. He should leave her after he secretly finds a better chick, that would deflate her ego nicely.
Easyboy11

Who did he say that to???
Easyboy11

She needs to be careful.
Snowcap

She’s a cunt, and so is Lagerfreak. Flip the bird, wear the dress, make the money, suck the cocks, who cares.

This was the best article i have ever read regarding Kristen Stewart. Kristen is trash and proves it every time she opens her mouth. I’m so ashamed that trash like her is even considered to be famous.
The only great thing about her behavior is the karma factor. Kristen has so much bad coming her way that it is exciting to wait for it to kick her in the teeth.
mags

It’s just Kristen showing how trashy she is!!! Let this girl be gone!
