Naomi Campbell English supermodel.
Name:Naomi Campbell
As a young child, Campbell was left in the care of a nanny while her mother travelled across Europe with the dance troupe Fantastica. At age 10, she was accepted into the Italia Conti Academy stage school, where she studied ballet. She attended Dunraven School, a comprehensive school run by Inner London Education Authority in Streatham.
In 2008, when talking about the model profession, she said: “Models need to earn their stripes - I just think the term is used a little too loosely. Kate Moss is obviously a supermodel but, after Gisele , I don’t think there’s been one.”
In 2009, Campbell gained a lot of attention after she dubbed the fashion industry as “racist.” In an interview with Glamour magazine, Campbell was quoted as saying “You know, the American president may be black, but as black woman, I am still an exception in this business. I always have to work harder to be treated equally.”
Campbell is signed to IMG Models (New York City), Storm Model Management (London), Marilyn Agency (Paris), and D’management Group (Milan).
On 3 April 2008, Campbell was arrested inside Heathrow’s Terminal 5 on suspicion of assaulting a police officer after one of her bags had been lost. Campbell was subsequently banned from flying globally with British Airways by the airline. She was charged with three counts of assaulting a constable, which carries a maximum sentence of six months in prison and a fine of up to ￡5,000, one count of disorderly conduct likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress, which is punishable by a fine of up to ￡2,500, and one count of using threatening, abusive words or behaviour towards cabin crew, which comes with a maximum penalty of ￡1,000. On 20 June 2008, Campbell pleaded guilty to four of the six charges against her, while the Crown Prosecution Service decided to drop the other two charges. The remaining charges include two counts of assaulting a police constable; one of using threatening, abusive words or behaviour to cabin crew; and one of using insulting, abusive, threatening behaviour or disorderly conduct likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress. Campbell cited racist slurs and other verbal abuse directed at her by members of the British Airways crew as the reason for her outburst. Campbell was sentenced to 200 hours of community service. Campbell also alleged that British Airways staff called her a “golliwog supermodel” in the incident.
