Kate Moss stumbles over words in slurry speech at awards

KATE Moss appeared to slur her words while giving a speech at an awards ceremony.

The 48-year-old supermodel

– who has been sober since 2018 – presented the Fashion Innovator gong to her friend Anthony Vaccarello at the Wall Street Journal's Innovator Awards but seemed to stumble through her speech.

After taking a long pause to read from her phone in a video shared by the Wall Street Journal on Instagram, she said: “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen ... Antony and I have worked together for ... years.

“Since he started (at Yves)

Saint Laurent ... I could recognise his instinct ... for fashion and ... I wanted to be a part of that.

“I wanted to be part of his Saint Laurent family and ... I wanted to be his friend. Ladies and gentlemen, I am honoured to ... present Anthony Vaccarello with the Innovator ... of the Year ... Award!”

It comes weeks after Moss explained she is the “happiest” she has ever been since taking care of herself and swapping nights out for early mornings spent exercising.

In an essay published in ES magazine, she wrote: “Really, when I started to take care of myself, things began to change. They say that selfcare is part of self-love.

“The important thing about changing your lifestyle is that you don't change yourself. I used to be a hedonist and that is still a part of my personality, that hasn't gone.

“It's good to be multi-faceted and we all have to recognise those different parts of our personality.”
