Much to everyone's disappointment, John Galliano abruptly pulled out of attending the Savannah College of Art and Design's annual fashion show just hours from the event.
The touted designer was set to receive the prestigious André Leon Talley Lifetime Achievement Award presented by Talley himself. Talley, editor at large for Vogue, commented that it took him two years to secure Galliano for the event due to his busy schedule stating, "I'm devastated that he's not here." The reason Galliano didn't attend was that he fell ill.
Students kept an optimistic attitude even after the news and were ecstatic about the other famous attendees present, including Miss J. Alexander, America's Next Top Model judge, who kept them amused with Tyra Banks impersonations. The show must go on, right?

hmmm.....
1My sister graduated from SCAD last year. Galliano is a prima donna.
2yikes that is a HIDEOUS picture. unless he is REALLY sick (like cancer), this was a lousy thing to do!
3i'm going to scad next fall! i hope the famous designer won't pull that at my fashion show!
4If ALT was presenting me with an award and I was on my death bed, I would still have the hospital wheel me there to accept it! LOL
5The word here in Savannah is that it was something to do with drugs...
6Not sure if I believe it, but all gossip has a base somewhere, right?
So he was "ill", huh? C'mon, look at the guy's face! Drugs are bad, m'kay?
7From what I hear SCAD's guests of honor are paid a lot of money to just show up, grab an award and nothing else. They don't meet the students or hand out awards or give internships. ALT is paid a TON of money to get these guests. Yawn!
8Who cares about stupid american design school` Of course hes not coming ! such a waste of time` like he have nothing to do better` i mean get real` the school is bad, student is bad `whats the point of coming ?
9He doesn`t care with such a stupid award
