Right?! Which is why she is 50 and still doing it. It’s also why people have such a problem with anyone just being allowed to be a model because of who their family is or that they were able to get enough plastic surgery *cough*Bella Hadid*cough* to be let into the fashion industry.
Yasmeen Ghauri absolutely was Naomi’s runway slayer. When asked separately to name who they thought had the best walk both Naomi and Tyra said Yasmeen.
@@chasenip2 To be honest, I have always been personally biased against Yasmeen because of an interview and one campaign she participated in I found offensive. I wish they had a full DVD of CNN Style so we could look back, but I still think I would vote for Naomi
@@Ishisah I think the reason why to us as black woman we appreciate that is because we always get out against each other pls don’t speak on a community you don’t understand even if you are apart of the black community
@@Ishisah it’s not typical or stupid all woman are out against each other that’s facts so when they celebrate each other it is refreshing I didn’t even @ you in a disrespectful way maybe try have a civil conversation instead of giving attitude
@@mariajason3547 Arabic language came from African native language. Arab means "speak" in native African Tswana language. Iman is a beautiful proud black woman.
@@SediMha For one to answer they have to speak. I speak 13 languages by the way and yes Arabic language is taken from native African languages. Have a good day.
I saw Iman once in Selfridges. She was just walking down an escalator and past me. I am not one to be starstruck but as she walked past me, I just froze with my mouth opened 🙊 Her walk was so confident, she was glowing, graceful and she was absolutely stunning. She is the most beautiful person I have seen in my life! Besides, she has impeccable taste as she was married to David Bowie! Not these wannabe Instagram models with their filters. I have seen a few celebrity in the flesh and was disappointed as they looked haggard!
@@scouser2010ify what are you talking about? And he spent the remainder of his life with the goddess IMAN and even gave much of his life earnings to her and their daughter.
@@scouser2010ify nah they never ever really liked each other anyways. they both had affairs the entire marriage and even confessed like right before that they didnt want to get married. Iman and David were perfect together
It's lovely to see her so humble and to give an OG respect. She also deserves respect at a time when it was hard for sisters to get noticed, Naomi took the modeling world by storm she is as if not more breath taking in person. absolutely stunning there is only on Naomi.
Oprah...sent Naomi to interview her...inspiration...and Naomi..interviewed Iman..when she she asked what made Iman retire...her one word answer...you....the two have always loved and embraced each other...there are other stories i could tell...but those two love and respect each other on every level...
I couldn’t agree with Miss Campbell more on that note !! Iman is an extraordinary human being and not too shabby of a model and business woman in the fashion industry.
I have watched the VH1 interview of Iman RuPaul mentioned, while what he said of Iman's reply is true, it doesn't give the full context of her answer. What she meant was she doesn't want to be self conscious about the audience or the photographers, so she wanted to visualize a vast empty space while she was on the runway, that's why she was thinking of Africa because of all the beautiful landscape she grew up with. It shows being a runway model is sort of like being an actor, you need to be "in the zone", into a character.
Watching Naomi on different shows especially recent ones she highlights, champions, and supports black people especially black women. I love that about her.
She always said nice thing about Iman , i don't know any model or anyone working in fashion who said anything negative about Iman! They all looked up to her and respect her. Even those who dislike each other like Iman
I agree. Super elegant. Thats why David Bowie was a perfect match. Hes elegant, an englishman. As refined as she. When i see Naomi interview like this, i like her.
Even Models who dislike each other like Iman, just like how the entire fashion industry all like Iman and respect her. I think she certainly is very unique in that aspect .
This is why I find it so hard to believe Tyra when she said she was bullied by Naomi. In the end if she is able to talk about her peers with such respect, she is able to recognize virtue in others. However, she still has a reputation for being Diva and difficult and such. She was already Naomi Campbell, she had nothing to envy upcoming runway models.
I love how naomi and Iman both were in Michael Jackson’s music videos
For the same album at that!
@Scorpio Bradley (snaps finger) i forgot about that! Well damn! The Hoe-ly Trinity!
Michael was top tier.
Which one has naomi, can you tell? I want to check it out
@@ladymargaret6186 In The Closet.
Love her or hate her, Naomi is STILL the best walker on the runway. For her to pay tribute to Iman is everything.

@Shoahshana Goldberg-Shekelstein see my comment to someone else
Not while Yasmeen Ghauri’s still alive, no she’s not
To hear Naomi saying she admires Iman's walk , hearing her paying tribute to someone she got even better than ,is heartening .
A Han what an idiot you are.
A Han I agree!! I love. Iman really inspired her.
A Han ikr when i heard this "omg naomi is still a human after all"
timothy chung Naomi is not half chinese...she is a Black Jamican with Hakka great grand parents... her mum and dad are black Google it...
timothy chung Umm...are you seriously going to deny Ophelia DeVore, Darnella Thomas, Donyale Luna, Naomi Sims, Grace Jones, Patt Cleveland, Alva Chinn, Gloria Burgess, Pat Evans, Mounia, Maria McDonald, Khadija, Bethan Hardison, Billie Blair, Waris Dirie, Katoucha Niane? All iconic Black models who came before Naomi.
I love this. I love when black women praise one another.
Me too thats so touching
@Dioioego what a privileged thing to say! ask any black person in a western nation if they feel the difference, you bet they do
Dioioego no it’s not it’s not racist it seem like you people want to play the oppressed games
Compte Poubelle they are Black she said she is a Black woman
Compte Poubelle you know horn Africans are in the sub sharaian African
What makes Iman amazing is that she always embrace and is supportive of others black models unlike a lot of other famous black models.
Salim Adam: It shouldn’t be because she’s Black, but because she’s a great model-period. And Naomi said nothing about Iman being Black.
Cough Tyra Cough

IMAN LOVE AFRICA AND AFRICA LOVE IMAN
MY BEAUTIFUL ABAAYO
may day yes you read that correctly
I met Iman once. She is the epitome of grace and true classiness while still being funny and real. A walking legend.
There's no one like Iman. She's elegant, intelligent and kind. Her name means faith in Arabic ✨❤️
In SWAHILI well and she speaks it as well

You can tell Naomi really admires Iman that is a beautiful mentorship

She maintained dignity and was scandals free Iman, her accent and attitude is so regal
I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone ever say a bad thing about Iman or even Iman getting into some controversy.
That’s a woman of elegance and class.
Iman is a Goddess. Bowie wouldn’t settle down for less.
I mean he’s married Angie sooo....

Iman is from my hometown in Somalia . I'm so proud of her 😍
Naomi you are an amazing model, loved your respect for Iman.
I came back to this video right after meeting her at the restaurant I work at... IMAN in so humble and beautiful and just a great human being.
It's lovely to see her so humble and to give an OG respect. She also deserves respect at a time when it was hard for sisters to get noticed, Naomi took the modeling world by storm she is as if not more breath taking in person. absolutely stunning there is only on Naomi.
She's walking for her roots,...that makes me tearup.😢 Luv both women.💕🙌🏾👑👑💋
AFRIKA
Iman,Anna Bayle and Pat Cleveland were considered the runway queens of the 80's
70's and 80's.
Love Ana bayle
Anna Bayle looked like she suffered from yeasty pussy all the time. She did not rule. Stop bringing this false truth on internet.
Do not forget Billie Blair !!!!
B Gill what about Beverley Johnson? I always thought she was so beautiful.
Iman is so beautiful.
I just love how Ru subtlety, yet enthusiastically agreed with her.
A F R I C A
I wonder if she said it deadpan as Ru did.
Oprah...sent Naomi to interview her...inspiration...and Naomi..interviewed Iman..when she she asked what made Iman retire...her one word answer...you....the two have always loved and embraced each other...there are other stories i could tell...but those two love and respect each other on every level...
Iman is Queen! 👑
Love that respect from Naomi to Mrs Jones !!!!!
Naomi campell from iman i cry my mom love this women call iman bowie
Dalmar Trois no its iman abdulmajid somalia dont change their name after marriage
Iman is a living legend
Iman is the most beautiful and elegant model ever
Naomi simply acknowledging the queen mother of all...
....for real...all the supermodels look up to her...designers too...photographers also ....she is QUEEN MOTHER...OF HAUTE COUTURE....
I don't think any fashion model or fashion designer would disagree that Iman is the Queen of modern fashion
How beautiful and ironic to think a younger version of her was admiring this black female icon, and then would become an even bigger one herself!
I think Iman is Nefertiti reincarnated, a queen indeed
Iman and Anna Bayle ERA stays legendary and Iconic😍🔥🔥🔥
Beautiful interview. Thank you!
I couldn’t agree with Miss Campbell more on that note !! Iman is an extraordinary human being and not too shabby of a model and business woman in the fashion industry.
Naomi and RuPaul together at last. Hoping to see these two Queens sharing another stage soon - hint hint @RPDR . Please make it happen! Thx
I have watched the VH1 interview of Iman RuPaul mentioned, while what he said of Iman's reply is true, it doesn't give the full context of her answer. What she meant was she doesn't want to be self conscious about the audience or the photographers, so she wanted to visualize a vast empty space while she was on the runway, that's why she was thinking of Africa because of all the beautiful landscape she grew up with. It shows being a runway model is sort of like being an actor, you need to be "in the zone", into a character.
They are both the most amazing models. Thank you for being so wholesome.
And why did they laugh at “Africa?” Discomfort? Was it Ru Paul’s delivery? Iman’s answer was profound and beautiful.
I guess maybe he said it abruptly. He tried to emulate her accent and vocal delivery and i guess it was funny to them
I didn't get it either, as far as the laughter. I guess it means she is thinking of home.
It’s funny because it’s unexpected - and it doesn’t dismiss the profoundness of the answer. And also Ru is a great storyteller
That’s a possibility! I think that most of the audience, though, did not know WHY they laughed. Or laughed out of some kind of discomfort.
Let’s not reach, the laugh was not from discomfort. It was from the way he spoke, his mannerisms and the face he made when he impersonated Iman.
Naomi was humble and graceful to say that.x
It like if naomi is a queen , then iman is an empress , which she really is
Watching Naomi on different shows especially recent ones she highlights, champions, and supports black people especially black women. I love that about her.
Yes, Iman inspired her with that who was doing this for years and it's great to see Naomi join forces!
This is beautiful... I like Naomi despite what people think.... and Iman is a class act.. point blank... ✊💎😍😘😘♥️🌹🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰
Naomi and Iman’s friendship is beautiful.
two runway legends
AFrica!
This is so beautiful! I love them both.x
These Lady,s are so different yet BOTH ARE STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!
Yes! Iman is so elegant and eloquent.
Yasmeen and Iman 😍
Naciimo and Iman 😍😍
You just have to love this from Naomi. She showed proper respect.
I saw Iman in Nolita years ago and damn near got hit by a cab the way I was gawking at her!! Photos don’t do her justice seriously!!!
Iman is absolutely stunning and is a legendary icon and always will be.
I've never seen Naomi humble. I love her even more!
“Africa.” I know das right! 👏🏾👸🏾
Oh yes iman she's so beautiful🤩😍
The supermodel in her era is a litteral artwork
Iman is a goddess in real life. I'm glad I'm old enough to know who she is.
It’s really something how Naomi is the best to ever do it yet she is so humble. She is always giving compliments to other models.
Iman is the queen of Africa
Iman is the model of all models.
Naomi n Iman beautiful models
Iman is the black queen 👸🏾 in the world, real AFRICAN ❤️
Both truly professional and outstanding Models, unlike so many nowadays
Ru is simply hilarious 🤣
Iman is literally a goddess😭✨👏🏻 Naomi as well like the both of them r top tier women❤️
Even icons have those people that they looked up to and admired.
I don't think any fashion model or fashion designer would disagree that Iman is the Queen of modern fashion
Iman, Anna Bayle and Pat Cleveland are the queens of the runway
This is the very first time I heard her say something nice about another woman. She's always hating on them that it became embarrassing.
She always said nice thing about Iman , i don't know any model or anyone working in fashion who said anything negative about Iman! They all looked up to her and respect her. Even those who dislike each other like Iman
Naomi hit me. And I loved it.
Naomi was on Ep$teinn island what a freaK
I love Naomi Campbell. She’s my hero.
Iman is all class and talent.
I like both of them
Naomi’s voice is so south London trying to be posh.
Looove Iman
I liked her from the movie Ride too!!!
AFRICA! I get it Now Iman🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love Naomi. Period!
Two of the most beautiful women in the world!🤩🤩
right Naomi, you can learn a lot from her
I agree. Super elegant. Thats why David Bowie was a perfect match. Hes elegant, an englishman. As refined as she. When i see Naomi interview like this, i like her.
Iman una top model una top mamma una top moglie, Iman un Angelo in terra! 😇👏👏🙏❤️
Agree re Iman and Naomi is too
Endless Beauty, both Iman and Naomi.
Even Models who dislike each other like Iman, just like how the entire fashion industry all like Iman and respect her. I think she certainly is very unique in that aspect .
Love these two women. And both of them appeared in Michael Jackson's music videos 😍
Naciimo and Iman 😍😍 Qurux our queens

However, she still has a reputation for being Diva and difficult and such. She was already Naomi Campbell, she had nothing to envy upcoming runway models.
Well she was young and not educated like Iman was who was so regal like a Somali queen with elegance of Somali poetry she could articulate things
My two favorite,The most beautiful women in this world..
Iman and Naomi ❤️♥️
The best recognizes the best.
