Ever wondered what kind of man Karl Lagerfeld would hire to protect himself and Choupette? Well, the answer is a ridiculously good looking one. Really, really ridiculously good looking in fact, we’re talking male model levels of good looking here.
That’s right, Karl Lagerfeld’s 39-year old bodyguard and personal assistant – Sebastien Jondeau – is now the face of Lagerfeld’s menswear line. He’s also walked the runway for Chanel and featured in a photoshoot for Pirelli (shot by none other than Lagerfeld himself).
But Jondeau – who met Lagerfeld when he was 15 – is first and foremost Lagerfeld’s bodyguard. Speaking to WWD, Jondeau told the publication that “Maybe I’m too much around Karl, but I know he needs it. It’s very important. With him, people are not that aggressive. You just have to be careful with someone who could be crazy,” WWD reports.
Other perks of the job? Lagerfeld showers Jondeau in gifts, so much so that the bodyguard’s everyday uniform includes Dior Homme, Givenchy and Tom Ford. Not bad.
