Naomi Campbell
- Profession: Model
- Place/Date of Birth: Streatham, South London, 22 May 2020
The former PA alleged Naomi became obsessed with Robbie and she did all the running around during their 12-month fling. She added: "When Robbie was on the road in 2001, Naomi would have me track him down to various hotels and send flowers with the message, ’Thinking of you’. "It must have been very suffocating for Robbie because he never called her back to say thank you, and that got Naomi very upset." Rebecca claims their affair ended later that year after a final night of passion at one Naomi’s hotel suites. A spokesman for Robbie refused to comment on the story.
Naomi has spoken out in support of Kate Moss - Sept 27, 2020
Naomi Campbell has spoken out in support of disgraced Kate Moss. The catwalk queen thinks her fellow supermodel has been treated badly since her cocaine expose. Naomi, who has battled drug addictions in the past, said: "Kate Moss is my friend. I think it’s like everybody is being bad to her. It’s not the first time it has happened in the world. It’s really like a vendetta."
Meanwhile, Kate has been offered a $5million deal to model for an online gambling company, Nine.com. After being dropped by top fashion houses Chanel, Burberry and H&M after her cocaine scandal, the sexy supermodel has been offered a five-year contract with Nine.com. However, should Kate wish to accept the deal, she will first have to undergo a treatment course at a drug rehab centre, followed by a two-month "corporate retreat" at the company’s headquarters in Costa Rica, where she will be closely monitored. The firm also want her to take part in an anti-drug campaign for high school and college students.
Nine.com spokesman Jack Abrams told America’s New York Daily News newspaper: "We believe in giving people who have been affected by both seen and unforeseen circumstances a second chance. "Our demographic clientele is males, ages 21 to 45. We did a real quick focus group with some of our customers to see if they’d be offended in any way, and the response was an overwhelming, ’Yes, please, get Kate Moss as your spokesperson.’"
Naomi has demanded a bullet-proof car - Sept 05
Supermodel Naomi Campbell has reportedly demanded a bullet-proof car for her visit to Colombia. The catwalk queen will be driven through the country’s crime-riddled capital, Bogota, when she jets in to judge a modelling contest on Friday (23.09.05) - and wants to ensure she is safe.
The cover girl has also insisted delicacies like sushi are prepared for her trip. Event spokesman German Palomino said: "She also asked for a bullet-proof car to drive her around Bogota." But an insider hinted locals are more worried about upsetting the notoriously hot-headed model than they are about crime. The source is quoted as saying: "People are worried about upsetting Naomi because she does have a reputation for losing her temper."
Last week it was revealed Naomi has been accused of hitting her former best friend "like Mike Tyson". Actress Yvonne Scio alleged the star put her in hospital after a row. She claimed: "First she shoved me against the wall, then she tried to grab my face and finally she let rip with two or three violent punches in my face. "My lip was cut and I was absolutely petrified. I couldn’t even cry because I was in such pain. I was absolutely stunned. She was like Mike Tyson." Naomi has denied the alleged attack, although she admits the pair had a verbal disagreement.

She was raised by her grandparents since her mother, the ambitious Valerie, was making her way around the world with an exotic dance troupe. At 13, precocious Naomi started at the Italia Conti stage school. Two years later she was ’discovered’ in Covent Garden by a modelling scout.
Recently, she has been seeking anger therapy - her American agency fired her on the grounds that she was ’unbearable’ and published the following statement: ’No amount of money or prestige could further justify the abuse she has imposed on our staff and clients.’ She recently pleaded guilty to assaulting her assistant with the mobile phone she normally keeps clamped to her ear. Naomi had a top 10 hit with Babywoman in Japan and has a reputation for being always late.
She has been romanced by a string of men including Mike Tyson, Robert De Niro, Joaquin Cortes and was rumoured to have had a fling with Joseph Fiennes. She is currently dating Italian millionaire Flavio Briatore.
As well as modelling and a stab at a music career she has also penned a novel entitled Swan (1995) and has appeared in the film Pret-a-Porter, she also appeared in an episode of Absolutely Fabulous and once was a pupil in Grange Hill. Naomi has also just launched her own perfume. She also has an apartment in Chelsea. (written 2001)
