Damn, that tennis coach looks sexy as hell.

[yasmineply820]

I... Love... Andre!~

[bouticeboo]

I love him so much ! I wonder how could meet him !

[josh5oneway]

@bouticeboo - He is still at vogue so anything is possible

[Vuyolwethunqezane]

@nyc11104 oh shut it and stop being judgemental. hes the editor-at-large of VOGUE, he has every right to be drenched in LV from head to toe.

[TheHcgdietplan]

Really enjoyed you video informative. When you have time come visit my channel!

[vseegobi]

why do i get the distinct impression that he needs to drape his body in something at all times.

[raglstrfgh]

More concerned with what he's wearing than how he looks or moves. When he dies, as he will, of complications of diabetes, heart failure, or vascular disease, he will have a large, grand casket. Being less obese isn't not being obese. If image is his obsession, then he should demonstrate greater effort working on how he looks naked, and his health and the example he sets will improve. Mark Twight would destroy him.

[mlbennett95]

Love Andre but he has some ashy ass elbows in the video!

[pennydesouza]

He's an interesting man. Smart too - educated at Brown.

[mefeline]

his own 'aesthetics in approaching life' is very intellectual, explaining this to ppl that think he's stupid would be like explaining kant to a 3-year old.

[nhlkennedy]

love it and would love those tennis raquet covers!

[onlyafewtops]

Like the post below if you think of Andre as the ANTM judge that always caws "Dreckitude" and wears what appear to be Snuggies.

[onlyafewtops]

Tyra (or is it Chris as Tyra?): So what do you think, Andre?

Chelsey (as Andre): Dreckitude!

[yinkoos]

This man rocks he is a credit to america and the black race Im so proud of him. All style and substance

[cheezymouseful]

he's a trip, i wonder what he would say to me if i met him.

[hollandberry]

lmao he is such a diva...Playing tennis in louis vuitton and diamonds. Love it

[pbainbridge]

What a complete and utter tool this man is, he's like a candycane with big red bow, seriously tacky.... embarrassing

[shitcharles]

WHAT IS THAT SONG?!

[martinw93]

@shitcharles Diversion by Mark Ronson

[StrawberryBigMac]

ummmmm who is that tennis coach?

[thekingfist]

Yea, to those of you who are judging ALT based on a YouTube clip that is one minute and nineteen seconds long - you really should ...... I dunno. Do some research, you obviously don't know the lanes he has paved to allow him to do such "vulgar" and "ostentatious" things..

[branchwater7]

this does not present andre in the best light for people who don't know his history.

[hayamatsuka]

ugh he is an oversized duck and i won't ever be seen with him. I'm gay and i have more class then him, he has no one to bitch about he can only bitch about himself.

[seanzscorpio]

He looks like a turd wrapped in Vuitton. Money but no style. Vulgar and Ostentatious...

[DavidSS123]

Anna is totally right, he really needs to lose weight!

[ntmaerrett]

Then again, I'd hate to work for a person like Anna Wintour so maybe there is an excuse for it all....

[ntmaerrett]

It's unfortunate that people see this man as some 'hero' because he is dress in Louis Vuitton. What truly matters about a person is the heart and character. I love fashion but I cannot get over the big-headedness of this guy.

[0dour]

LOL FATTY FAT FAT CAN BARELY HIT THEE BALL HAHAHAHAHA. and he dosnt look stylish.

[0scarsky]

This isn't new york but Weho, by Labrea and Santa Monica...

[bwsbbc]

andre is the icon of our times. matching scarf and hat both by louis. he is so comfortable with himself. he just does not care!

[Arkant90]

He's a diva, and i love it.

[BrandonBoston2]

He's a very talented guy, but a bit too precious with all the LV and Piaget nonsense.... He'd be more credible with a pair of Hane's sweatpants and a cheap T-shirt from Target. The diamond watch is just too, too much!

[session036]

I hate Andre! He is suck a Fucken COW! Rude as hell. Yeah, Anna needs to give him LIPO.

[quinnee85]

As fashionable as he is, his elbows could sure use some lotion...i still love u Andre' :) but please moisturize.

[zaklamp24]

He's playing tennis for 3 years, yet he's still fat. He needs to work harder.

[medavog]

he has always being over weight doll.ing!!!!!!!!!

[canarygrl1]

ALT is such a character. I love it

[africus]

It's true LV has some nice accessories and it certainly has nice pret a porter stuff, especially for women. But wearing all the accessories at the same time AND to play tennis is just tacky, not to say silly

[LouisVuittonPrince]

Most of it is facades crafted by white record label execs, to sell records to misinformed white people.

Lastly, Lloyds vuittons are far from fake. Had you any experience w/ luxury items you'd know that. Stay focused on your dogs, leave society and luxury to those of us who know it loser.

[Quiksurfer]

your username is a joke itself, did Bernard Arnault knight you to be prince of his company? LOL I can just see you carrying a huge LV monogram bag down the street and people laughing at you without you noticing it. I am not a racist. I am a upper middle class white person who wont splurge my money on buying LV monogram just to flaunt on the street. I will spend a lot on money quality stuff. I bet besides LV, you and llyodbaltazar knows nothing about other labels. you just copy what is obvious

[LouisVuittonPrince]

As an african american, I found it so rude and disrespectful of you to say black people who carry Vuitton must have some affiliation w/ illegal activity. There are so many who work hard for their luxuries and obtain them w/ money from legal endeavors. Hell our president and 1st family are black. Get over yourself and realize your racist views are outdated and not condoned. How dare you. Most black artist you see who wear and endorse Vuitton arn't even involved in drug trafficing.

[LouisVuittonPrince]

There are plenty of images of Angelina carrying her monogram tote all through different airports. Trumps are at Vuitton shows every season. Gates & murdoch, I highly doubt youre in social circles to even be around them.

[LouisVuittonPrince]

oh and when u say you don't see a kennedy, trump, brangelina, munch, murdoch etc carry monogram you're very mistaken. Clearly had you done research before you spoke. Jacqueline Kennedy Onasis, was famous for carrying her louis vuitton luggage. So iconic in fact Russell Simmons bought her luggage when it was auctioned at Sotherbys for his wife.

[lloydbaltazar]

"The super rich never wear something to fish attention, and the super beautiful dont wear something so appealing to distract their beauty." -BULLSHIT

BOY! I don't know what Taliban cave you live under, but that is not the case here in Los Angeles or New York. Do yourself a favor and get out of Hickville.

[lloydbaltazar]

I LOVE how he says "Anna wintour... always gets her way... whatever she says goes" (referring to him taking on Tennis lessons 3 years ago)

I agree... Anna Wintour is one dominatrix fashion god. how can you refuse such a fashion legend asking you to lose weight? Vogue/Anna Wintour is GOD.

[LouisVuittonPrince]

andre leon talley is one of my fashion rolemodels. Being ayoung blk designer I love how he supports young designers. I love that he holds one of the highest positions held by some one blk in the fashion industry. Keep doin you andre

[Quiksurfer]

yea hes very typical black. always have to wear the label/monogram to be seen. like all the hiphoppers.

ridonculous

[lloydbaltazar]

I love Louis Vuitton and i flaunt the Louis Vuitton brand as much as he does.

I am NOT Black. I hate hip hop music (I love House & futuristic trance).

That LV Boite Flacon trunk case is to die for. There is nothing wrong with being shallow, materialistic, superficial people. Andre Leon Talley works hard for Vogue magazine and deserves to flaunt the best of the best luxuries you cannot afford.

[Quiksurfer]

I dont see a Trump, a Kennedy, a Brangelina, a Gate, a Morgan, a Murdoch, or anyone with significant money flaunt a monogram. I find what you say really funny. The super rich never wear something to fish attention, and the super beautiful dont wear something so appealing to distract their beauty. I am not saying the LV monogram or the asthetic of it is not beautiful, but if you do it to the point of ALT or most black people (drugdeal money) or like yourself on your fake LV page, disgusting!

[lloydbaltazar]

I feel sorry for you, NONE of my Louis Vuitton's are FAKE.

Audrey Hepburn is a fashion icon and she flaunts Louis Vuitton monogram. MADONNA is the queen of fashion and she is the ONLY face of celebrity ads Louis Vuitton. I am the true Louis Vuitton customer, and I openly hate and disgust Fake Louis Vuitton products---as well as ANY other Fake Luxury brand items. NONE of my items are fake. Fuck you.

[lloydbaltazar]

Andre Leon Talley is a Fashion editor for VOGUE magazine.

Just because he is Black, that does NOT mean he is a druglord. I don't know what planet you live in, but you should get some mental help, you sick envious freak. I should slap your face with my AUTHENTIC Louis Vuitton Speedy bag. Moron.

[canarygrl1]

I see a lot of ignorance in your comment that is scarcely masked. Your observations of a few don't stand for all, and they are certainly not proven. Who are you to speak for the super rich? Paris Hilton is super rich and look how she dresses. To equate "most black people" with drug deal money, or wearing head to toe monogram outfits is really pathetic in this day and age. Especially with a man like Obama in office. Give credit where it's due, and get over your prejudices.

[Quiksurfer]

Everyone has prejudice. I admit it, because it is generally true. Try shopping at Rodeo drive, 5th ave, and a nice mall and you will notice the difference of the label shoppers. You never see that in the Hamptons, Highlands, or Beverly. and Paris Hilton is super rich? Please give me a break. that poor girl made a name in sex video and is fishing money from appearing in sleazy silly tv shows and parties. you call that super rich?

[canarygrl1]

Paris Hilton is an heiress. She has money without the sex tape and the tv shows. She is worth over $150 Million, without counting how much she is to interpret. She comes from money and will always have money. It isn't right for you to defend your prejudice and then provide examples of others. Were talking about you and your small mindedness.

[bettiepage85]

Ridiculous

[sonogashira44]

In french, one says:" quel gros tas ce Andre Leon!" So strange to get all tennis stuff in Louis Vuitton !

[sbrownie]

[THUGGINBUNDLES]

[MsFaffinette89]

[SofhiaX]
