Help me out, guys! I don't remember what this image represents. I can only recognize this as fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld. But what does he have to do with Travis?

The only anagram I can think of for TRAVIS is A TV SIR. But I don't know any male celbrities with white ponytails who have been knighted.

???????

Okay. I just figured it out. The title is misleading.
#3: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Jul 16, 2019
Is it actually an anagram of "travis miller", or "bigblue"?
#4: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jul 17, 2019
Okay. The anagram is for "Travis Miller."
#5: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Jul 17, 2019
So I'm getting smile or smiler. Depending on which one it is, I still have an anagram of travil(r) to work with. Am I on the right track?

Mind you, I have absolutely no clue who this dude is if his identity is supposed to be a hint.

This has been sitting on my solved but not solved list for some time, so I thought I would google Karl Largerfeld. I might be way off but Lagerfeld was made the host of the fictional radio station K109—the studio in the video game Grand Theft Auto IV. So I'll try
IV star.

Aurelian, this is a really hard one, so I'll give you more clues.

Phyllis, that isa really creative connection. That's not it, but you get points for coming up with a reasonable answer.

It is indeed Karl Lagerfeld, but his name and identity are not relevant. His hair color and style are relevant.

What color can you anagram from "Travis Miller"?

Mr. Silver Tail. (I take a bow.)
#10: Phyllis Schimke (PhyS) on Jul 18, 2019
Yay! Great Aurelian, finally. I bow to both you and Teresa.

This is LLS solvable, just keep an eye out for those smaller clues and stray whites that the hint button doesn't always catch.
