About why she likes French (2007): "Because I love France. Paris and Amsterdam are my favourite cities. I also like French cinema, I would love to work there. I actually like almost everything which is not English."

Crash Magazine // 10 March 2009

The latest issue of the French Crash magazine has Emma on the cover, and an article with new pictures. It’s a rather different, edgy look, and you’ll probably like them, or hate them. The pictures were taken by Karl Lagerfeld. Credit to Watson Daily for the excellent scans.

Update:

A lot of the information in the interview is stuff we already know, but Neve has translated the interesting parts.

  • She’d like to live in France and go back to speaking French fluently.
  • Emma talks about why and what she wants to learn, mentioning painting, photography, literature and History. She says she’s never really studied politics or philosophy but that she’d like to. She wants to go to university to learn, make new friends and be anonymous. She wants to “feel normal for a while”.
  • She quotes Audrey Hepburn when being asked about how she deals with tabloids: “I don’t care what they write about me, as long as it’s false”.
  • She says that she loves dressing up, that it’s a creative way of expressing yourself, which is why she enjoys it the same way she enjoys Art.
  • She says she genuinely thinks Karl Lagerfeld is a genius and that the photoshoot was one of the nicest she ever did.
  • “I cannot not be “green”. I did my end of school project on global warming and hurricane Katrina. I studied the effects on a small scale, like the dam projects in London, but also on a bigger scale. My car is electric, I recycle, I take public transportation, I try not to buy and drink bottled water. I’m not perfect, but it’s something I feel strongly about.”
  • She’s been listening to a lot of folk and blues lately.
  • Her worst nightmare: sharks.
  • Her favourite sound is that of a baby laughing.
  • Her favourite book is “The Shadow of the Wind” by Carlos Ruiz Zaf

    I don't like Lagerfeld. He's obnoxious, and he's a crappy photographer. My opinion. If there's something about these pictures, that's only because Emma is snapped. Luckily he didn't manage to ruin the shoot completely thanks to the subject.

  2. Maria says:

    I do NOT like this shoot. Her eyebrows eew and they havent done justice. But she looks ok

    i like all these photos, and the eyebrow is a fantastic thought i think, its easy to do that i guess… just put some white puff or something…..yet its not really original for me since i've seen that kind of presentation before… anyway, good try for emma. personally, i like something different and i think people should know how to appreciate this kind of thing, and to be 'grotesque' is never a bad thing…
