Statements like'... 'If I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish / n7 I& z+ \8 ~$ V( q. Z- p% V
and Asians would buy my clothes, I WOULD NOT have made them so nice. I wish these people would *NOT* buy my clothes, as they are made for upper class white people ' 7 e/ ]0 Y+ z% V9 ~

His answer to Oprah was a simple ' YES' . & _$ N+ A; K! t' A$ B- K/ s

My suggestion? Don't buy your next shirt or perfume from Tommy Hilfiger.
