John Galliano’s New Anti-Semitic Rant Caught on Video

Published on February 28, 2011 at 10:00 AM

(HMG Celebrity News) – So much for blaming the victims.  Famous designer John Galliano had been drinking at a bar in Paris last week, and was arrested after reportedly launching a bitter anti-Semitic tirade at two strangers, a Jewish woman and an Asian man, who had been sitting at a table nearby, according to local police.

Galliano reportedly said, “dirty Jewish face, you should be dead” to Géraldine Bloch, 35, according to the French daily le Figaro, which had access to police reports with eyewitness accounts of the event.

Le Figaro reported that Galliano then grabbed Bloch by the hair, and shouted at her companion, Philippe Virgiti, 41, “F**king Asian bastard, I will kill you.”

After the verbal assault Christian Dior suspended Galliano, its creative director, but Galliano’s lawyer, Stephane Zerbib says it was the designer who was the victim and that he’s preparing to sue the couple for defamation.

‘There was an argument. Mr. Galliano was verbally attacked but at no time did he use… insults of a racist or anti-Semitic character. We have witnesses to back up his version of events,’ dailystar.co.uk quoted him as saying.

But as it turns out Galliano, 50, returned to the same Paris bar where he allegedly launched the vicious verbal attack on two people last week and seemingly repeated the whole ugly affair, which was caught on camera and the Sun has the stunning video here.

The man who filmed his new outburst told The Sun: “Galliano was sitting alone nursing his drink, when a few of us sat at the next table.

“Galliano kept intruding, throwing in comments about us and what we were saying. We knew who he was. He’s instantly recognizable.  “We were stunned by what Galliano was saying, but then he started making vile anti-Semitic comments. His words were disgusting. He made it clear the Italian girls weren’t welcome and should go home. This was pure racism.”

“I love Hitler,” Galliano tells the women sitting next to him matter of factly. “People like you would be dead. Your mothers, your forefathers, would all be fuc—g gassed.”

After stating he loves Hitler and making the gassing remark, a woman is heard to say, ‘Oh my God’ before asking slurring Galliano if he had a problem.

He said: “With you. You’re ugly.” Asked where he was from, he said: “Your a***hole.”

The tirade was videoed by a friend of the people he was insulting – who were French and Italian, but not Jewish according to the Sun.
