Legendary Designer Karl Lagerfeld Stars in Grand Theft Auto IV

It is a known fact that the games in the Grand Theft Auto series have managed to bring controversy to a whole new level ever since the first game was first released in 1997 on PC. This April's release will probably make no exception to the rule, but this time there will be a twist. Real life characters have been included in the game and, apparently, there are no limits for the future. Until then, we know at least one real life person who will star in GTA IV.

Legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld (the creator of costumes for Madonna or Kylie Minogue, to name just a few) will now head to the game consoles near you, as he will be featured in the latest installment of the Grand Theft Auto franchise. Unfortunately for those who would've loved to directly interact with him, we have some bad news: he won't be a real game character, but part of the game's soundtrack: he will be the DJ on air at the K109 The Studio station. And probably that's why the station's name begins with a K.

According to reports from fashion website wwd.com, Karl Lagerfeld was introduced to the Rockstar executives by nobody else than Daphne Guinness (that name should ring a bell!) and didn't hesitate to be a star in the new Grand Theft Auto IV.

"I prefer to be in a video than to play with it," Lagerfeld admitted and said that he would've loved to be a very nasty and politically incorrect character. I don't know whether this would be a great idea or not, but I am sure that Rockstar (or any other game developers) will take full advantage of his declaration.

And now, having found out this little piece of precious information, we just wonder how many other secrets like this one Rockstar have prepared. Considering that there are quite a few people who have already played the game and surely tried to discover all the secrets - yet they've missed this one - we are really sure that some other similar things might be implemented in the game. And this, my friends, is just another reason that makes GTA IV such a great title.
