Kidman rep blasts reported Lagerfield comments

Hollywood beauty Nicole Kidman has laughed off fashion guru Karl Lagerfield's harsh comments about her looks as "impossible".

The acclaimed designer was quoted in the British press claiming Kidman wears "bizarre body make-up" and is a false beauty - even though the actress was paid a reported $3.8m (€2.9m) to front his Chanel No 5 advertising campaign.

But Kidman's spokeswoman Catherine Olim doesn't believe Lagerfeld made the comments.

She tells gossip site The Scoop: "This sounds impossible to me. He (Lagerfeld) adores Nicole and they have longstanding mutual respect for each other as professionals."
