Nicole Kidman new face Chanel?

Following his couture presentation for Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld refused to confirm reports that Oscar-winning Australian actress Nicole Kidman will be the next face of the renowned French fashion house.

"It's not a done deal, so I can't tell you anything," the German designer told reporters, although he admitted that he would love to have Kidman by his side, noting: "She's the best of the best." Lagerfeld also would not comment on reports that Kidman's contract with Chanel could total a minimum of 7 million euros, a record sum. "I'm not responsible for Chanel's accounting," he was quick to add.
