Naomi Campbell was one of the most beautiful supermodels of the 1990s. Born in 1970, she hails from London, England. Her mother was a Jamaican dancer. Her father left when she was just two months old. She gets her exotic looks from her Jamaican-Chinese grandmother. Naomi said: "My features are completely ethnic 1, and I'm proud of them.”


Success came early for the young Naomi. Her first job was at the age of seven in a Bob Marley video. At 15, a modelling agency spotted 2 her shopping in London and within a year she was on the front cover of ‘Elle’ magazine. The rest is history. She has appeared on the cover of fashion magazines over 500 times.


Campbell has led the life of a celebrity 3. She was the first black cover girl for ‘Vogue’ magazine and appeared nude 4 for Playboy. She has been linked romantically to Mike Tyson and Robert de Niro. She released a music album which sold over a million copies and was number one in Japan. Her ambitions have also resulted in her own fashion and perfume brands.


Since 1997, Campbell has been involved in charity work. She says one of her greatest joys was working with Nelson Mandela, helping 5 children in Sub-Saharan Africa. In 2005, she helped create the event Fashion Relief, which raised millions for Hurricane Katrina victims. Campbell also has a less enviable side to her character. She has a history of arrests for physically 6 and verbally abusing others.
