These Asian Stars Have All Met Karl Lagerfeld Before... & Some Of Them Looked Really Starstruck

The passing of legendary fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld on February 19 at age 85 from pancreatic cancer has saddened not just the fashion and entertainment world but anyone who has ever wanted to own something from Chanel. Which is you know, everyone. The Kaiser of Fashion was more than a designer or a creative genius, he was a star in his own right. And his mere presence turned the coolest of celebrities into starstruck fans. You could just tell how stoked these stars were to be breathing the same other-worldly air as he was from these photos. The fashion giant really was not of this world. After all, Karl, who had a notoriously wicked sense of humour, was once quoted as saying — and this has to be our favourite quote of his — “I’m very much down-to-earth, just not this earth.”
