Naomi Campbell, the famous supermodel, is a glamorous person inside out. She captured the entire world’s eye by her beauty and charm. Her hard work made her one of the few supermodels of her league. Campbell is British and stands to be 5 feet and 9 inches tall.
CHILDHOOD
Campbell has had an interesting early life. While she was born in London, she moved with her mother to Rome for a few years. She does not know who her father is and she hasn’t even met him once as that would hurt her mother’s sentiments. Campbell’s father abandoned her mother while she was still carrying Naomi. Naomi has studied Ballet and is a wonderful dancer as well.
CAREER
Naomi’s career has been a whirlwind romance with modelling and dancing. Her biggest opening as a model was her first appearance in the British magazine, Elle’s cover. This happened just before her sixteenth birthday. Talk about this being the best birthday present ever!
Naomi’s career grew slowly and steadily. She has walked the runway for labels like Versace, Mizrahi, Dolce and Gabbana. She was among the most desired models of her time, along with models Christy Turlington and Linda Evangelista. She is the first black model to be on the cover of French Vogue! Naomi has been named a lot of titles to mark her demand and success.
The Big Six originated at this time and it consisted of the models Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Tatjana Patitz, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss. Naomi has also been a part of Micheal Jackson’s song “In The Closet.”
Naomi has appeared on the cover of the magazine Vogue in the countries America, Britain and France. The people who were involved in managing her did not really have good things to say about her even when she was doing so well in her career. This was mostly because of the rude treatment that she used to give to the staff. As a result of this, she was chucked out of Elite Model Management. She has been describes as manipulative, scheming, rude and impossible.
In the 90 s, Naomi tried to venture into other works as well. Though she failed considerably. She authored a book called Swan, which was badly trashed. Campbell released an album called Baby woman, which did slightly well only in Japan. She has been an investing partner in the chain of restaurants that have been named Fashion Cafe.
By the year 1998, it was the end of her super-modelling times. She took retirements from runway shows but did appear in print ads sometimes. Her career still had its own ups and downs. She appeared on the cover of the Playboy magazine. She walked for Dior in 2007.
Campbell does have a generous bone in her body despite all that is said about her. She has been widely recognized for her charitable works. She put in a lot of efforts for fighting poverty in Brazil and for this reason, she was named ambassador of Rio De Janeiro by the then mayor. She was an ambassador for the White Ribbon Alliance as well. She has received a lot of critical acclaim for her work in the fashion industry. Her contribution has been greatly valued and treasured.
PERSONAL LIFE
Campbell is almost a sworn spinster. She has dated a lot of men but she has never tied the knot with anyone. She used to date the famous boxer, Mike Tyson, in 1980s. Then, in the 1990s, she was known to be dating Robert De Niro. In 1993, she came really close to getting married when she got engaged to Adam Clayton but, they separated in the same year. Again, in 1998, she got engaged to Favio Briatore but, even this relationship did not work out and they separated in 2003. She is currently dating a Russian Billionaire, Vladislav Doronin.
Campbell has a history of drug abuse as well. She has spent around five years in a rehabilitation center.
