“Look, you have to make mistakes. That's how you learn and that's how the world works.” -Naomi Campbell.. watch “Tyra Banks - how the most loved model quickly became the most hated!” NEXT ua-cam.com/video/vS_9WMG8dpA/v-deo.html
Amen, Naomi.❤
You have her name spelled wrong in the video title it's Campbell not Campble 😂
People have been hating on Tyra well before 2020. And not for very good reasons. She did messed up shit on Top Model that didn't age well, but she managed to create an empire when the fashion industry tried to chew her up and spit her out.
Yes. Grace indeed.........
Naomi would’ve been Jimi Hendrix foxy lady…….in a good way. I think she’s one of still,one of the best models out there! Those eyes! The walk! ❤😊😊😊😊😊 no wonder Tyra’s jealous .🤢🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍true? Naomi still got it!
After reading the book ‘Model’ I realized the whole modeling industry is a front for human trafficking.
Yes. I was OBSESSED with fashion file, house of style, all of it as a kid. It's so clear now that those girls and women were being trafficked. Some of the Heidi Fleis girls said they were models.
Yup. The 90s models waited till they got older to speak up but, it definitely was a case of selling yourself to the highest bidder for most of those girls. Just unimaginable. Those parents abandoning their daughters also.. wow
That's why it didn't surprise me when I found out she was on the Epstein list
and she literally owns her own island which is a red flag...
Donald Trump wasn’t on the flight logs 😂. All the leftist elitist where and he can’t be controlled that’s why they all hated him. He lived in the same rich town in FL as Jeffrey but never went to Peeedoooo island. You can see for yourself we all saw all the names! And she was not a child when she was attending those demonic parties on the island. You sound super biased. Same way you defended Lauren Hill. I don’t get it…
She may had been a victim, but I believe she also helped make victims.
We just never know. I think many of those models was brain washed since they got into the industry so young without adult supervision. It’s all just unfortunate.
Victims most times become victimizers
Yes a cycle of abuse
Sad but true
However true there are alot of victims that do the opposite and help save other victims and council them.
Of course she did. She’s part of that club
I can only imagine what Naomi endured in that industry as a black woman. The gaslighting I experience walking in my shoes is triggering, let alone Naomi. Incredibly strong character she has had to develop
@kaelsurtour Lol, shall we talk about the barbarism your ancestors participated in 👯🏾♀️
@@kaelsurtour What is your problem with black models? I see you have something evil to say about them. No matter what you say, it doesn't mean Naomi wasn't a victim of racism in the modeling industry _just like the video says._
Just like everyone - sucked d*ck of her bosses. But she wanted to be famous. Great body and she actually became more beautiful with age. But total bitc*h.
@@veronicajade20 why do you hate poor black people. Why are you so angry at somebody exposing the blood diamond industry which causes so much misery for poor black people.
Are you one of those Antichrist humanist leftist that supports Margaret Sanger's racist eugenics plan rebranded as a woman's right to choose committing genocide against 50% of all black babies every day in America.
Are you one of those atheistic humanist Antichrist racist that believes black people should be wiped off the face of the Earth.
Are you one of those Antichrist atheistic humanist who tried to mix the facts
Evolution like organisms change with mythology that we have different races because some Africans left Africa went to Europe went to Asia and eventually The offspring evolved into different races because when rhyme at the reasons like whether diet and natural selection. Therefore you believe African people adjust less evolved therefore there's no logical reason to allow black people to continue to exists.
You do realize that excuse the racist eugenics doesn't hold water. 41 even if it was true it doesn't give you the right to take the life of black people. For two it's been debunked we know why we have different races and it's not because of environment the reasons like weather diet and natural selection. We have different races because we have different admixtures. So no black people are not less evolved human beings as the Antichrist atheistic humanists left push.
I know that's why you racist push the idea that black people don't have the same capability of getting ID because they're less evolved but that only exists in your racist minds it's simply doesn't exist in physical reality. Black people are just as capable of getting ID as anybody else.
Did you ever stop and think maybe your belief that black people are not as evolved as other people is based in racist propaganda rather than physical reality
I doubt your experiences were not the same. Naomi is not a victim and does not use her skin color as a crutch. She is a beautiful black woman and she knows it. She gets catered to because of that. Unless you look like her, y’all experiences ain’t nothing alike.
people give naomi campbell a LOT of grace. she has done horrible things over and over, and people let it go because they think she’s pretty
Girl go drink some water!🙄
I never thought she was pretty 🚫
The idol worship is quite disturbing. I thought being on the flight log would finally snap some people out from the spell they've been under, yet the idol worship continues.
They live through her, they think following her beauty regimens and opinions will magically turn them into her. It's disturbing.
Says a racist
It’s hard for me to give grace to individuals who mistreat service workers and their employees. It’s a huge red flag. Sorry your mom wasn’t there, but that doesn’t mean you can hit your poor housekeeper.
Yup!
A lot of the younger generation have no idea what kind of person she is. She is as nasty as she is beautiful.
Naomi should not have resorted to physical violence, and her temper was bad, admittedly. But let’s not pretend these people were innocent service people. These were people who stolen items from her, attempted to blackmail or extort her, and or tried to traffic information about her to tabloids.
Due to her family circumstances, Naomi did not have people in her inner circle who she could transition into roles on her staff. She basically had strangers working for her who the agencies had assigned. No loyalty. Also, people resent taking orders from a black girl, so running your ship is complicated further by that fact.
I’m not saying she ever should’ve hit them, but what I am saying is that some of these people had nefarious intentions from the get-go, and others, who knew of her temper, would purposely insight things in order to get a payday or to be able to run to the tabloids and get a payday there as well.
She wasn’t just being nasty to ppl like waiters and baggage handlers for the hell of it. This wasn’t that. This was to people who were assigned to take care of her personhood, and did terrible things to her behind-the-scenes. She was justifiably angry. But her anger issues led to violence, which was not acceptable, and she has taken responsibility for that, gone to counseling, and been made accountable in the court of law. There is nothing else to settle regarding these matters from 25+ years ago. This is a closed subject.
If is only you and your maid in the house and a designers jean goes missing, wouldnt you be mad ?
@@en8049mad yes, be violent NO
She was naturally gorgeous
I love how she mentioned that she likes to take control of her looks. Explains why she always looked flawless. We as black women should pay attention to that nugget, instead of allowing ourselves to be isolated and defined as things we are not, in these spaces
she wore a straight wig for 30 years. What part of flawless is that for bw.
@@digitalbrandingservice7056 mte
@digitalbrandingservice7056 It means there weren’t products for black women like makeup so bw have to take care of themselves to make themselves look flawless rather than depend on people who don’t care to make bw beautiful or have products that suit black women. Stylists today now can do wigs better.
@@digitalbrandingservice7056 Troll, what was she supposed to do with her hair? Wear it out & have a multitude of white hairstylists fry it off? FOH.
@@digitalbrandingservice7056I know you’re a black man for sure.😂
The way she explains seeing red when someone doesn't get her what she wants when she wants..that sounds like narcissistic rage. Her feelings of entitlement makes her have tantrums like a child.
100%
Narcissistic is such an overused word
@@jeraldisme it is what it is.
@@jeraldisme if you have a problem with that term you can replace it with 'big ego'. Same thing.
I don't know if she had NPD or not,but she does show signs and it's good to see someone taking a more honest look at her. Mistreating her service people,hitting or yelling at them ain't it. There is NO grace in that.
I remember baby-sitting; i was showing the child @ magazine and the cover was Naomi. I said isn't she beautiful - this 5yo responded, she can't be beautiful she's black. I was shocked, I couldn't believe anyone that young would have that type of idea imbedded. I explained exactly why I thought she was beautiful and never sat for that family again.
Maybe they were talking about her soul.
Oh dear..how deplorable..😵😲
Huge fan of Naomi for her talent and fierceness, but the truth is she isn't a good person. Just because she was a victim doesn't excuse her shitty behavior as she keeps making more victims.
I don't know her personally, I can't say..
Agree with you kd Tyra banks said Naomi bullied her when she was a young model and was mean to other black models
Being on those flight logs is a crime. Sorry. I loved her too. Maybe she was being blackmailed but she was definitely involved in the trafficking of young girls. There are many celebrities who we loved and now see the ugly under belly of Hollywood and Entertainment. Once is a mistake, several times says you're involved. What they did on that island was horrendous. Jay Z and Beyonce went many times as well. Sad but this is only the beginning of the nightmare that's about to come out into the open!
Yeah 6 times was insane. It’s impossible to imagine that she didn’t know what was going on. 6 times on those flights… I do think she was brainwashed though but that’s definitely not an excuse.
She was way to smart to be brainwashed. She was involved with a group of people who control the industry and they thought they were never going to get caught. Weinstein told on them all that's why he's still alive and in jail. I know many who I'm just waiting for it to come out. Been in this industry for some years and I have seen things first hand and know from my friends in the business how evil it is. They have you pledge your life to the dark side. Once you have taken the blood oath there is no turning back. It's this evil.
Many politicians, high profile media people, celebrities and very wealthy powerful people are all involved in that 🤦🏽♀️
and she literally owns her own island which is a red flag
Beyonce has give me the creeps for many years now !
One of the victims named her specifically, just because she’s a black woman doesn’t mean she’s incapable of harming people.
@@marciestoddard730 No I’m saying sum ppl feel obligated to defend Naomi because she’s a black woman even tho she’s clearly affiliated wit those evil ppl
So what!! They use to call it slavery, now sex trafficking or human trafficking. Nobody is free from sin.
Do you say this about the white models? Where is your comment under videos of white models?
@@rosejames5172Which white models have been specifically named by any of Epstein's victims? Honest question.
@@nickih2130you gotto be joking! 🐝
This is a humanizing portrait of Naomi. No doubt she has been vilified like many other Black women in positions of power. As you stated, her industry raised her and molded her.❤
Bullshit. No one cares if she has power and is black. She has a terrible attitude and is insane. Industries can mold people, sure. But then where does the buck stop? Those who were abused by priests and nuns, do they get a free pass for abuse? How about R. Kelly? Bill Cosby? Jane Fonda? Rose McGowan? Asia Argento?
Power?? As a model? 😂😂😂
@@Cynnas As much as models are only looked at as life-sized dolls, Naomi and other models of her era were pioneers and had platforms that other models did not have. She obviously had influence if she could sway designers, fashion houses, and bolster leaders such as Nelson Mandela!
💛
Naomi in her profession is fantastic! However she was a victim but she cannot continue to play that victim card as an excuse for her crimes and continued associations. It is what it is.
Exactly
🎯
@@birthdaycowI so agree ! She’s such a gorgeous woman. But,many of her so called mistakes “ I heard were drink & drug used.
She’s been sober many many years ! Congrats to you Naomi on that! That took a lot of work to get there in modelling. I heard now,she’s adopted a child(?) 😊😊 also still doing good in the world after the bad karma….😊😊😊😊
My daughter wanted to be a model. She graduated from modeling school and immediately got very sick with MS. From the sounds of it MS may have saved her from a life of slavery.😮
What’s MS?
That's a terrible way to look at it. But you're not wrong. The apparently slippery slope of modeling going to yachting ( prostitution) then at times, slavery. * vomits*
Yeah.....I recently watched another modeling documentary featuring nineties models and I came to the same conclusion.. . Modeling is nothing more than a cover up for a sex ring.
.
I’ve heard there is a specific diet that has cured or helped those with MS. Look into it. I forget the details
@boujeejams3086 multiple sclerosis. That's when the nervous system is attacked and your body becomes almost impossible to move yourself
As much as I like Naomi as a super-model here and there. She’s incredibly gorgeous and has broken many barriers along with being iconic however… I don’t feel she was a “nice person” nor feel she’s fully innocent. All the lashing out assaults addictions issues she has had past tense and so forth. People put these celebrities constantly on a pedestal as they can do no wrong. Or they’re above or beyond reproach regardless wrong is wrong.
So she’s human…. Also nice people get victimized. No one should be nice. Kind yes… nice never.
Definitely not a nice person checks her natal chart out. U can see it her spirit she’s envious and dark
I like her as a model, but she has a history of being extremely abusive (like throwing things at people). I applaud her for breaking barriers, but that is not an excuse to physically or psychologically abuse people.
Why do you get to have a bad day but a celebrity can’t? You’re putting them on a pedestal too
She has a history of being abusive.@@user-pn6rd6fv9w
Of Naomi Campbell's Father (possibly Chinese) - Naomi Campbell's rich heritage comprises Afro-Jamaican and Chinese-Jamaican roots. The Chinese lineage stems from her paternal grandmother, whose surname was Ming. This diverse heritage has contributed to Campbell's unique and striking appearance, adding to her allure in the fashion industry.
She was on that ISLAND
Odd Epstein didn't fancy Black women, hmmm
@@SuperAnimelover100maybe he did 🤷🏾♀️
@@CR0WBS
This is what I read. Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly instructed one of their victims to procure other young girls for them to abuse - but specifically asked them not to go after people of color, according to newly unsealed court documents. Accuser Virginia Giuffre told two lawyers about the pair’s alleged race criteria in a 2011 phone call. The women had to be Young, pretty, you know, a fun personality. They couldn’t be black. If they were any other descent other than white, they had to be exotically beautiful. That was just about it,” she said. Speechless me. :(
..and wanted to keep blood diamonds
So was your boy, Trump.
I had the opportunity to dress Naomi Campbell a few times (Bill Blass & Donna Karan) at the tents during the years I worked with the Ground Crew. She was very sweet and respectful. There were other models who weren’t as gracious. This is understandable when you have many hands touching your face, body, being told to put this on, take that off - it’s a lot for anyone going through the process of being fashioned. Take into consideration, these are very young women during the height of their modeling careers. I’ve literally had model say, “don’t touch me”, after being poked and prodded time after time during the course of fashion week. To honor this request would have been extremely difficult, since the clothes must hit the runway, and they are being paid to model them. And never underestimate she is a black girl in this billion-dollar game. Put all of this on top of all their personal issues. I like her a great deal for her humble sense of being.
You mean a black woman, not a black girl.
she was on the cover of Vogue at 16?! wow she's next level
Imagine the odds of accomplishing that in the mid 80s as a darker skinned Black model. And she's still relevant now at age 53. The industry will never see another like her.
Best model to ever exist imo
Most of Hollywood A listers and top models did shady stuff to get to the top.
Not most of them, All of them.❤❤❤❤
They all sold their souls. They all drink the blood 🩸
@@wardaledillard8553 except for Yasmeen Ghauri. She left the modelling industry in ‘97 for very good reasons besides starting a family.
Oh yes they most all did and do shady stuff. I lived in the heart of it for 25 years up until recently. It is such a superficial, dark industry without morals or integrity. You cannot keep yourself or your morals and integrity intact and be successful in that industry. You HAVE to go to the parties, be seen, say what they want you to say and be willing to sell yourself for a price. It is toxic. I was as times in private clubs, hotels and high end restaurants with famous actresses and models and talking to them.... tells you they've sold their soul. They can't look at you in the eyes or with a strait face because they're hiding so much. They are in this industry to be successful and will do what it takes to get to the top.
Although I never thought that Naomi was a saint, she was exposed to things no young girl should have ever seen nor experienced. A lot of her behavior could have due to her being high. I think she might have bullied Tyra but Tyra was no saint either. In any event Naomi was a trailblazer and she should be acknowledged for this.
No it came out that it was Tyra who was the bully and not Naomi.
Tyra is a Phoney! And Jealous Of other models. Remember how she treated YAYA and Kelly on ANTM! And Tiffany! Naomi never did this to Young talent!
Naomi Doesn’t play anyone pincushion! She had the pins!
as unhealthy as it is, i’m actually really glad she just basically said like ‘sometimes i don’t eat, i just don’t have the time. and when i get home, it’s either; sleep or eat and i’d rather sleep’. like she knows it not great, the way she said it shows us that but it’s the truth, it’s realistic and lots of people can relate 🤷♀️ i much prefer that compared to “omg i LOVE pizza, i eat it everyday ! and here’s my creamy pasta recipe” (i like the hadid girls but …. come on now ! lol i’m not saying we’re entitled to all the personal details but the viral PR campaigns of their fav foods are a bit much).
I never felt anyway towards Naomi with the blood diamond. Who in their right mind would snitch on a president.. and how is a person supposed to know that their receiving a blood diamond… they have always try to drag Naomi
Naomi is savage in her profession, from her walk to the fierce passion & effortless grace she brings to photos/runway. I ❤ her. She's a true icon living!
modeling industry is very scary, industry in all aspects, acting, music, dancing, for children is scary.
this all reminded me of gisele bundchen, having to walk a show topless at EIGHTEEN! and she was so emotional over it. i cant imagine, that’s still practically a child. and then went on to date leonardo dicaprio who serially dates women under the age of 25. who knows what gisele endured as well.
Nasty business
No excuses. Victimhood mentality is the problem with this world today.
well said! Say it again for the people in the back 🗣️
I remember when she wore that dress to her community service! She glided down that sidewalk like it was Paris Fashion Week! She was working that dress! 💃🏽
At the beginning she was a victim, no argument there. But Naomi is all grown up and she now appears to be an INSIDER Karine. At this point, at 30+ years in the mix, she is a part of the whole clique and probably just as guilty as the rest. JE flight logs aside, I shudder to think of the kind of darkness she has seen and been involved in given the circles she moves in.
Weapons profiteers, etc. She is one of them. Even if she wasn't one of the diddlin flyers of JE, she's aware of a LOT, and has done nothing about it!
We all know what it is or was for the older among us to be a young black teenage woman. We got gaslighted and older men try to talk to us from the side when our parents were not looking, leave alone very young Naomi who was totally alone without protection from a parent or family member at the mercy of these vouchers. I don't want to know how often she was alone and scared in a hotel room. She had no guidance and everyone wanted a piece of the chocolate for business, even the ones who pretended to love her. With all the scandals and what she has been through of what we know and don't know. Naomi Campbell is the Super Model of all time and she made it through a very harsh and dark industry and for that Applaus Naomi.
This is the problem with celebrity. Everyone wants to be accepted and when you are unusually beautiful people are drawn to you and treat you better. Next, the users come but they are nearly impossible to spot because they come under the guise of befriending you and/or "helping" with your career. Once you are in deep in a contract the abuse begins. It gets worse and worse so people start drinking and drugging to deal with it. Then they age out and are dumped and ridiculed. Moral of the story: don't be envious of famous people, their lives aren't what you think they are. Be glad you're normal and average because most humans are and that's just fine.
She is a villain and not a good person at all, BUT... let's talk how LINDA EVANGELISTA WAS MARRIED to probably one of The biggest scouters in The industry?? Harsh on Naomi, but Harsh on others that are at least in suspiciou position in this entire story
Having had nowhere near the success or access of Naomi but having witnessed numerous incidences of sexual, substance and financial abuse I could only imagine what she went through. I say financial because agencies made sure to keep you spending money before you made it, whether on clothes, lifestyle or on drugs/alcohol as a method to control you. Desperate broke girls wearing insanely expensive clothes but cannot buy a meal will do whatever they are told to keep the money flowing. Some girls were the only hope for raising their families out of poverty and felt they had no choice. Some parents looked the other way or admonished them to play the required role. From the wealthy homeowner in the Hamptons loaning his mansion for a photoshoot and in return gaining access to the nubile young thing fresh off the proverbial boat for a "walk" at 2am, she was 14 and at 20 I was the chaperone and I refused to let her go to the photographer who felt you could only look sexy for the camera after actual sex. The industry prefers them young and bend over backwards to convince parents that all the required precautions will be in place and also the Easter Bunny is real. I was already old when I started at 19 and had my own mind so I was not ideal:) No excuses for her bad behavior and even worst decisions because at some point you have to take ownership but it is sometimes difficult to see consequences when you have seen none for monsters and you are told that your face, your body that you are a commodity.
Thank you for sharing..
Naomi said told Tyra she would never say something like that to another model yet on The Face Naomi literally told Nicole “DON'T COMPARE yourself to me. ever! you are not on my level and you’ll never be". I think it’s safe to say Tyra wasn’t completely exaggerating 😂
It is a difference between just meeting someone in the same field and someone yu know who is already in the same field tries to play yu with false allegations and comparisons
She really seems crazy to me. A real piece of work. A nut job.
@@juvon102 Again Naomi said she would never give herself away by saying something like that and the beautiful bean footage showed otherwise. It’s okay Naomi is human and has been deeply insecure which caused her to lash out at anyone she felt threatened by. However let’s not be revisionists or be apologists for someone who made their choices.
@@JustTheLonelyTalk I’m not saying anything in much defense of character but I do understand the situational difference with that video. While I find it hard to believe she said that to Tyra then (btw met her myself and I know people personally that were on that yacht shoot she was talking about, all good vibes) when Nicole came at her it was in spite as she said things that were not true. It is also a fact of status that Nicole is not ranked as high as Naomi as she doesn’t have much character to equate nor does her walk or philanthropy. I also point out the facts to someone who claims they know what’s up but really just assumes, some ppl just word it differently
@@juvon102 You don’t want to believe Naomi would say that when everything about her history and character says otherwise. 😂
But doesn't Tyra deserve some grace? Also, the modeling industry works overtime to divide black models. They did it with Iman and Beverly, and then they did it with Naomi and Tyra.
She's one of those people that, yeah, she has a temper and she's done some regrettable things, but I still like her. She worked hard, she achieved alot and she's an icon.
Working hard to achieve power, fame, and money is not really hard work if you consider all the treacherous things they did to get there. Cheating, backstabbing, and hurting others on your way to the top is not hard work...
@@AfricanDominican honestly, normal people that don’t have fame sometimes do worst. I’m not making any excuses but she is still talented outside of some of the things she has been accused of. You can be a disgusting human being and be talented. For example, R. Kelly is very talented outside of the gross things that he has done. Sometimes, people don’t want to give credit because they don’t agree with someone’s personal choices. It’s granted that some people will do crazy stuff to make it to the top. However, it still doesn’t take away that they had talent or work hard prior to that.
* worked
@@AfricanDominican2/2 however, I agree with you that you shouldn’t hurt others. This is why their behavior comes to the light and they end up getting exposed. This is karma for a lot of them.
I.d wonder if she punched you in the face you'd feel the same
Sorry I used to be a Naomi fan but I believe she’s a criminal. Just cos your a victim it does not give you the right to continue the abuse on children.
Correct. It is an explanation but that doesn't make it an excuse.
What?
I love that we have code words on this channel that we can use so casually like going to rehab for "Coca-Cola" abuse
😱😂 no Pepsi?
“the friendship circle” is literally my favorite way to refer to subscribers and i’m so happy to be a part of it
Naomi Campbell is absolutely my favorite supermodel of all!! THEE ICON of ALL ICONS!!! She’s a feisty Gemini like me
I would also like to add that it was and is very common in the Jamaican culture to send your children off to live with family. My mother was from Jamaica and all of her brothers and sisters went to live with different relatives. I don’t know at what age . But I know a few other Jamaican families that did that or it happened to them. A Jamaican guy at my work has several children living with different family members. He says it’s normal.
Yes, it is. My family is Jamaican. My mother sent me and my siblings to Jamaica to live with my grandmother while she was studying in the UK
With all due respect and to keep it short, most of gen x were raised with very little parental interaction, protection and guidance. Most of us roamed the streets during the daylight hours and watched a lot of tv. We didn’t have rights (women and children)and there was no such thing as PC. So most of us didn’t / couldn’t question the norm regardless of how wrong it was in today’s standards. So as we age age and discover that the things we’re taught aren’t unhealthy or are toxic, some of us are making efforts to correct and reprogram our brains. That’s not easy. So Naomi, like most of us , found her coping mechanisms….. She is on her own journey of self discovery and it’s not our duty to police her or her mother or any one else , for that matter. And I speak German, and in Germany they would say Epstein the way you say it. Thank you
So true about those of us who are Gen X. We were on our own and became resilient. We all feel that it is best to "suck it up and move forward." We can be hard and cold - but it was essential for our survival. As grown middle-aged women, we are coming to terms with our "stuff" - but NOT to the point of being weak whiners. LOL.
Your channel is my favorite! You handle these breakdowns with so much care and respect and are so engaging. ❤
Black models getting pitted against each other is nothing new. First it was Beverly Johnson and Iman In the late 70's and 80's. Then it was Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks for the 90's. Tyra was never on Naomi level. Tyra is big fake crybaby... We see how the table has turned against Tyra... Especially the treatment of models on her show....
Don't forget Pat Cleveland. She was the first black model I saw and she is/was so gorgeous. Unusual, perhaps mixed race, I don't know, but what a beauty. Check her out.
Actually first it was Princess Elizabeth of Togo and Naomi Sims in the 60s. Sims was so beautiful and elegant.
Through the elite fashion circles as the lone representative of her complexion must have been daunting. The unspoken microaggressions, the unwanted advances, and the silent compromise are almost unfathomable. Her strength is inspiring and should be acknowledged. I can relate to being in constant ‘fight or flight’ mode, it really alters your defenses and perspectives.
You did such a fantastic job! Well per usual. Thank you Karine
Fantastic video, excellent commentary! Thank you ❤🎉🍾💫
I think even every escort and yacht girl is a victim in a sense, victim of patriarchal world where female body is a product that you can market, sell and someone can buy it. Even if it's their choice. And models are the most objectified by the industry character on its own.
For the most part, no one's putting a gun to their head.. Unless of course they're being roofied at parties. We cannot pretend like many women are willing to sleep with men to get what they want : opportunity, connections, clout, money, a 18 year check I mean baby, etc. I feel bad for those coerced into it but it's a fact that many women willingly seek those parties and men out. It's transactional and they are 1 of the parties who thinks they're benefiting from it. It's all gross. Watch the Playboy bunny documentary that exposes its dark side, now that was a trafficking front in plain site, and everyone knew it, actors, politicians, cops, rockstars all went there, and it wasn't for the cocktails.
@@Darima2i agree. No victim hood. It is your body, you decide what you want to do with it. You make the decisions whether it be for a man, for money, for marriage /title whatever. Whatever. That's your decision and you are not a victim victim! When it's NOT your choice, then you are a victim. 🐝
Patriarchy? It's usually their mothers making these business deals and handing their children off to these sex rings
To dismiss systemic issues of racism, sexism and ageism is more than naive, it's ignorant. I don't believe most of the people commenting here are aware of the realities and pressures. Instead of criticism, why not become an activist?
Yeah, you can buy, sell, market just about anything. People need to take responsibility for their own actions and stop blaming vague things like a Patriarchy. I don't think anyone actually knows what it is. I'm a man and I don't know what it is 😂
For Naomi to have had no relationship with her father, and Mandela taking her ‘in’ and becoming an honorary granddaughter must of felt magnificent
And got blood diamonds for it! Sure it came with a big price .
She was a victim. I believe her mother was an escort which is why I believe for a long time she resented her for that. But outside of the modeling and trafficking scandals I think she is also intel. Much deeper.
What trafficking scandals? There literally isn't one
Please. Never change the background music. I love your work. ❤ congrats
I had no clue Naomi had Chinese heritage
Im not surprised since she's of Jamaican descent.
I follow her and her skin care and vitamin regime and intermittent fasting is a wellness and anti-aging game changer! So, sad she stopped her UA-cam channel just before her baby came. You will find her skin and vitamin regimen on there…and I am a disabled war veteran age 55. Yes she has had her share of issues and serious problems, but when has it ever been easy for a black woman to dominate an industry that caters anyone but people who look like Naomi! It’s not excusable her behaviors over the years but remember she’s black and STILL relevant because she had to be tough and smart as well and maybe ruthless at times.
Thanks so much for sharing this information!❤️
Makes Perfect sense,🤔 You Always deliver the Truth,TFS, BLESSINGS 💞
I have heard from many models and still continue to hear from today's models about how they were assaulted, abused and raped. I have no doubt that Naomi being without protection absolutely had to endure this as well, and it would explain her violence and lashing out.
When you don't get to do kid things when you are a kid...it will happen as an adult.
otherwise, it's horror how many people in this world don't get to do kid things.
❤❤❤❤
Well balanced video. I enjoy of your work so far keep up the great work.
I remember seeing her name mixed up in the whole mess on Twitter and I can’t lie, it tainted my image of her.
But that thumbnail pic was arresting, I gasped. she was an insanely beautiful woman
Yup!!! She is THE SUPERMODEL!!!
Yessss!!
Yup!
I’m binge watching! 🍿My FAVORITE SUPER of all time! 🥰
Thank You for sharing Your Video with us & I enjoyed it.
Hey Karine,
Just wanted to say I lovee your channel❤
Even though I don’t always agree with your opinions, it’s always interesting to hear them and ponder on those ideas….
Thank you for discussing topics as these, awareness is key for progress!
💕💕💕
💜 i admired Naomi throughout my teens and early twenties. i would stay up late, watching vh1, hoping they would play George Michael's 'Freedom' so I could see her (Linda, Christy and Cindy). i really wanted to be like Naomi. when the controversies kept coming i felt that i was disillusioned - but that changed at some point and I continue to admire her spirit, absolute feminine energy, strength and longevity. I hope parenthood brings Naomi joy and helps heal or nurture old wounds. She really solidified a feminine aesthetic in me that I hold dear.
This was awesome, thank you! 💜💙❤
Yesss🎉 Can't wait to watch it❤
I was always fascinated by Campbell and her life. But she did have her issues. A lot of those Models did. I do wish her the best and hope she's found some peace in her life.
i love ur videos so much ❤ im also haitian your an inspiration
Ayyeee 🇭🇹🇭🇹Thank you so much for watching love ❤️❤️
Thoughtful spiritual insights, thank you
Great video!! I love this woman.❤❤Than you, Queen!
Hi karine i have enjoy this so much.
I believe you when you say that you are not defending Babylon.
I love you.
Thank you once more for another great video. ❤. The modelling world and being famous is not easy. 🙏🏻
I understand that she was thrown into this at such a young age which I agree she deserves empathy and compassion for, however, there comes a time when you need to grow up and take responsibility for your actions. Yes I am sure it was extremely tough navigating this world as a young kid, but that does not excuse all of her wrongdoings throughout her adult life.
❤I enjoyed this breakdown of Naomi Campbell Thank you !! Keep up the good work I enjoy your videos!!!
💖 I really love your videos 😍not to be extra or anything but me and my mom watch your Videos together and that has made us communicate more than ever. Thank you so much for all your efforts and time that you put into your videos.
thats so nice!
Why can't people just declare GENETICS as their Beauty regimen and advise "whatever works for you!". Every Body is different.
Good review dear enjoyed😊
The part where she teared up on Oprah I felt that. She finally heard the words of abandonment from her mother acknowledging it. 😢. She is alot older and matured evolved and her growth has in a sense brought her peace ❤
Looks like Lauren Hill.
Your journalism is both thorough and amazing. Just hit the subscribe button. Keep pushin sis! Your commentary is SPOT ON ❤!!!!
I love your YT channnel. ❤ Story of Naomi was very interesting.
I love that she is still active on the runway today unlike the rest of her peers.
Many 90s models still model today, almost all of them actually lmao
so many ppl tried to get my mom to put me in modeling when I was younger I thank God she did not
great video as always
Wow your coverage is outstanding. Love Naomi.
Another great and thought provoking profile of a fascinating and enigmatic woman! You always do an amazing job. I think to reach the pinnacle of success in the fashion and modeling industry you’re going to be victimized and you’re also going to have to turn a blind eye to others being victimized at the very least. Whether or not she was participating in abuse we may never know, but having knowledge and not speaking up makes one complicit. To speak up and expose these abusers would cost her her career and everything she’s worked for her entire life. What a tortured existence. I agree that grace should be given to some extent and judgement should be reserved because there is so much that we don’t know.
You're so right we forget they're human. Added with the fact how young they were thrusted in a dark world. Perhaps that coupled with abandonment issues would lead to anger pain etc. Throughly enjoy your videos. Xo
being young means they can be human trafficking later on in life? oh ok.
Her mother sold her to the industry
Her mother didn't want her to. Did you not listen?
@@nickih2130 this doesn’t mean that it’s a lie. We don’t know these people, a lot of parents sell their kids and pretend otherwise. 😂 it’s a possibility that she did or didn’t.
Great video.❤❤❤❤
I was waiting for this! Naomi Campbell is my FAVORITE catwalker of all time! Aside from Naomi's exceptionally STRIKING beauty, she is unapologetically DEFIANT and dares to be herself whether people like her or not. Iman and Naomi are my top 2 FAVE supermodels! Still gorgeous and regal to this day! ❤❤❤❤
Yes, I agree. She has the face of an Angel…but goodness…I had no idea about Epstein.
@@JuliaShalomJordanNaomi has been honest about her flaws. I can only hope she's honest about not being involved in trafficking with Epstein. I just hope that as she's gotten older-aging gracefully no less-has been mindful of the company she keeps.
@@danavixen6274I don’t trust her. The truth always wins.
@@danavixen6274Yikes you said all that and didn’t acknowledge what was said in this video. She’s not all that to overlook crimes i promise
she did a lot of good work for diversity in the industry. as a model, i saw a noticeable difference after her, tyra and bethan got together and called out the industry for their all-white runways. It was pretty bad back then in the 2010s but is much better now and in no small part thanks to her.
❤ Wow… amazing research and presentation of this content about Naomi!
I hope Naomi found her peace. Loved this like your other videos❤
UNRELATED:
I know I'm crazy, but I would've wanted to live in the alternate universe where Naomi and Michael were a thing.
The great Herb Ritts did a SUPERB job with the In the Closet video. Naomi and MJ looked hot together! ❤️🔥
Love your work ❤
I love her. Thank you for doing a video on her
Before the crazy cheek implants. Why, Naomi, why?
Omg she got implants? I didn't know that. I was wondering why her face looks funny to me now. I figured it was just aging, but I still felt there was something off about it. My gosh she's like one of the last people ever that would need cheek implants.
She never needed it her face was legit perfect
Vanity just like greed will get you every time. 🐝
She has fillers, a solution is injected into the face. The surgeon can move it around and reshape the face, just like playdough. Examples, cardi, Jada, black China, Niki Minaj, Vivica fox. Other celebrities.
She's also had rhinoplasty to narrow her nose! Her natural nose was perfection
Her and Banks both seem like terrible humans overall !
The way u pronounced lambeth is so cute and funny
You’re an excellent commentator. 👍🏽🌟💫
she is one of few supermodels who actually would regularly speak out for middle eastern women in the industry and supporting my people for that I will ALWAYS love her and support her

Neither Oprah Winfrey or Tyra Banks were empathetic towards the people on their talk shows. They embarrassed and exploited them. 😡
Naomi is no different
