Naomi Campbell is a British supermodel of Afro-Jamaican descent. Naomi also tried her hand as an actress and singer, which also won public recognition.
Naomi Campbell was born in May 1970 in Streatham, London. Naomi does not know who her father is. The parents divorced when the baby was not even six months old. At the insistence of her mother, Afro-Jamaican ballerina Valerie Morris, Naomi never met her father.
Valerie remarried when her daughter was a teenager. Either adolescence, or Naomi’s famous difficult character, became the cause of constant quarrels between her stepfather and stepdaughter. However, even at school the girl had difficult relationships with peers and teachers. Naomi Campbell later admitted that her “prickly” character was due to the breakdown of the relationship between her mother and father.
Throughout her childhood, Naomi remained in the care of a nanny. Valerie toured a lot. The daughter inherited her mother's flexibility and plasticity. At the age of 7, the young dancer appeared in one of the videos of the legendary “Is This Love?” And at 10, Campbell began attending ballet school, deciding to follow in her mother’s footsteps.

After her mother’s second marriage, the girl tried to come home later. After finishing her classes, she walked through the streets of London and her favorite park, Covent Garden. There, Beth Boldt, a scout from one of the Parisian modeling agencies, saw a tall and flexible mulatto woman who looked like a young black panther. A year later, in 1985, Naomi Campbell went to film in the capital of France. As a condition of the trip, the mother made the designer Azzedine Allaya look after her daughter. The British woman's casting for Elite was successful.
Modeling business
In 1986, Naomi Campbell appeared on the cover of the famous Elle magazine. But it was not only natural beauty, grace and suitable parameters (Naomi’s height is 175 cm, weight - 51 kg) that was the reason for the girl to appear on the cover of the cult publication. Circumstances so happened that Naomi had to replace another dark-skinned girl who did not come to the shooting. Thus, Campbell was the first black model to appear on the title page of the magazine. From that moment on, Naomi Campbell's modeling biography began.
Her exotic beauty was noticed, and the 16-year-old girl received many tempting offers. The face of a dark-skinned British woman now appeared on the covers of the French Vogue magazine and the English Time magazine.

Since the late 80s, Campbell’s cinematic biography has also been developing. Her debut film was released in 1984. Critics are not enthusiastic about Naomi's performance, but directors willingly take her into their films, as it greatly increases their ratings and box office receipts.

In 2007, the model’s frantic temper led her to anger management courses and 5 days of community service. So the court punished Campbell for beating the maid. But apparently, the punishment and courses didn’t really help, because the next year Naomi Campbell spat at a law enforcement officer at the airport. The policeman tried to calm down the raging star, whose luggage was lost. This incident led Naomi to further courses of psychotherapy and self-control.

Naomi Campbell now
Naomi Campbell does not hide the fact that she wears wigs, both on the catwalk and in everyday life. This is a necessary measure: the model’s hair is weak and brittle and is constantly falling out. Detractors attribute this to Campbell’s age, but the model explains her hair loss as the costs of her profession. Modeling and acting careers forced the girl to dye her hair in all sorts of colors, constantly use heat styling and extensions, which ruined her hair.

In 2015, Naomi, having finally come to her senses after breaking up with Doronin, returned to her old ways. Having met Formula 1 racer Lewis Hamilton, the ex-fiancé of singer Nicole Scherzinger, Naomi quickly dragged him into her network.
In addition, Naomi has incredible success in show business thanks to her scandalous antics. She periodically receives complaints from service personnel, so in 2007 Naomi completed five days of community service and took a course in anger management.
But this did not help the model much, and already in 2008 she spat at a policeman who was trying to calm Naomi down during a rampage at the airport.
In April 2008, the model underwent another course of psychotherapy on self-control, let's see how long it will last her.
