Linda Evangelista, ‘worst’ celebrity to work with: Max Markson

Los Angeles| Linda Evangelista has been called the worst celebrity to work with by a celebrity publicist named Max Markson.

In a new interview, Max recalled a not-so pleasant experience with the supermodel back in the 90s, calling her the worst star he’s worked with throughout his four decades in the industry, reports a website.

“I shouldn’t say this but Linda Evangelista was definitely the worst,” Max said during his appearance in an episode of the ‘Life, Money & Love podcast’ which was hosted by Dylan Mullan.

He then detailed how the supermodel “went berserk” at him over a snippy newspaper headline.

The whole drama started after the star asked Max for advice about what to wear to a treadmill launch party, Markson revealed that he suggested Linda to wear “something to go on the treadmill and then change into something beautiful” for the event.

Linda, however, opted to sport a hoodie and shorts to the event. That earned her a newspaper headline which compared her “fit to something a cleaner would wear”.

Max recounted: “The next day, my phone starts ringing at six o’clock, which always means there’s something wrong.”

He continued, “And Linda Evangelista wants to give me a right mouthful, which she does, because in The Sydney Morning Herald that day, it said: ‘Linda Evangelista was dressed like she was going out to clean the loo (toilet) on a Sunday morning’.”

The model allegedly went on to “badmouth” him at a charity dinner that night and wouldn’t allow him to speak to her.

In response to Max’s story, the star said on Wednesday, September 14, “I have fond memories of that trip to Australia, a country I love to visit. I was there promoting a treadmill collab. I don’t remember him.”

Linda most recently returned to the modelling world when she walked in the Fendi show as part of New York Fashion Week this month.
