Heidi Klum and Seal might disagree, but Karl Lagerfeld has used his press time for the animated film 'Totally Spies!' to defend his character. He voices the villain Fabu in the movie but says he's not so bad in real life.

"I know people who have an air of being nice and who are really dirty dogs," the Kaiser said. "Fabu is unlike me in that he has a taste for revenge, madness. I don't...well, OK, if you really do me a dirty trick, then yes, I have a certain taste for vengeance."

So. Our suspicions that messing with the man behind Chanel and Fendi would be a bad idea would be correct.
