Tantrums & Tiaras: Marc Jacobs, Suzy Menkes and Cathy Horyn

Poor Marc Jacobs, he just can’t seem to catch a break. Since Suzy Menkes’ less than flattering review of his show at NY fashion week, all eyes have been on Jacobs in Paris wondering if he’d let bygones be bygones or if he was still hurting. Well a number of critics concluded it was the latter and after his amazing finale at Louis Vuitton, The Guardians, Jess Cartner-Morley hinted that Jacobs was still acting a diva and fashion journalist, Cathy Horyn wrote on her blog,

I didn’t care for the gesture Jacobs made to Suzy at the end of the show. He stuck his tongue out. I guess he thought he was being cool or funny, on account of his feelings about her review of his New York show. It’s unbelievable, really. He should have known better.

But wait…there’s more. Not one to keep his mouth shut (and don’t we love him for it eh?) Jacobs hit back with a comment on Horyn’s blog explaining his actions….

I did NOT stick my tongue out at Suzy Menkes……I pulled a stupid face with my tongue out in happiness for being done with what has been a great but most stressful season for me. I am not stupid, childish or a vindictive person….I had prior to the show left a silly t-shirt and a nice note for Suzy on her seat. Why would I do anything to further upset her? Right after a show!!?? Cathy and all else reading this, I am surprised that anyone who knows me at all think that I am that petty or stupid! Anyone who has ever been on a stage would know you can’t actually see the audience. I made a face at no one in particular….I didn’t have a clue as to who was sitting there. Come on guys, give me a break!!!!!
