Dior suspends John Galliano over 'anti-Semitic' row

[Troll's Puzzle]

Fashion house Dior has suspended its British creative director John Galliano over claims he racially abused a couple in a Paris restaurant.

Police briefly detained Mr Galliano on Thursday night after the couple accused him of making anti-Semitic remarks. He also allegedly traded slaps with them ().

A lawyer for the 50-year-old designer said he denied the allegations.

Dior said it had "zero tolerance towards any anti-Semitic or racist words or behaviour".

The firm's chief executive Sidney Toledano said in a statement: "Pending the results of the inquiry, Christian Dior has suspended John Galliano from his responsibilities."

Mr Galliano took over the creative helm at the company in 1996.

He has been awarded the title of British Fashion Designer of the Year on four occasions.

Making anti-Semitic remarks is punishable in France by up to six months in prison. (.......)

"For the moment we don't know what led him to address the couple," an unnamed police source told AFP.

"We don't yet know if they knew each other or not."

Police said the designer had drunk the equivalent of up to two bottles of wine.

Law here includes revisionist and anti-semitic remarks as criminal offenses punishable by a fine or prison sentence as well.
Not only that, § 86 outlaws solar and celtic crosses, certain Totenkopf motives, war era mottos and a few runes.

British fashion designer John Galliano allegedly grabbed a respected art historian’s hair and called her an ‘ugly, disgusting whore’ with a ‘dirty Jew face’ and no dress sense during an unprovoked attack in a Paris cafe.

Curator Geraldine Bloch, 35, has told officers investigating the alleged assault that the designer, who is close friends with celebrities including Madonna and Kylie Minogue, insulted every aspect of her looks, from her ‘ugly eyebrows’ to her ‘cheap thigh boots’.
...
She has claimed Galliano concluded his tirade with: ‘I am the designer John Galliano!’ while striking the trademark ‘rock star’ pose with which he often ends his couture shows.
...
Paris’s Institute of the Arab World, by her hair and shouted: ‘Dirty Jew face, you should be dead,’ adding ‘shut your mouth, dirty bitch, I can’t stand your dirty whore voice.’

According to police documents, he then turned his anger on Mr Virgitti, and screamed: ‘******* Asian bastard, I’ll kill you!’

Ms Bloch continued to scream frantically, but Galliano allegedly told her: ‘You’re so ugly I can’t bear looking at you. You’re wearing cheap boots, cheap thigh boots. You’ve got no hair, your eyebrows are ugly, you’re ugly, you’re nothing but a whore.’

Oh well, that ^ was another incident entirely, but very telling:

In vino, veritas. Galliano might be an anti-Semite with Nazi opinions, but since when was that not the norm for a gay artist?

Till later...
