John Galliano Video Gets Him Fired

Filed under: Daily Hot List

Dior has fired its head fashion designer after a shocking video showed John Galliano declare 'I love Hitler' and hurl anti-Semitic remarks.

The video, purportedly shot in December 2010, surfaced days after Galliano was arrested in Paris for allegedly verbally attacking a couple. He is accused of making anti-Semitic comments during that confrontation, a charge his lawyer denies.

Natalie Portman was slated to wear a John Galliano dress to Sunday's Academy Awards but swapped it for a Rodarte gown. Portman said she was 'deeply shocked and disgusted by the video.'

After initially suspending Galliano Friday, Dior severed its longtime relationship with the designer today in light of his 'deeply offensive statements and conduct.' See the video below!
