Biography of Naomi Campbell

Childhood

Cult top model Naomi Campbell (erroneous options: Naomi Campbell, Campbell, Campbell, Campbell, Campbell) was born on May 22, 1970 in Streatham (England, South London).
The mother of the most recognizable black girl today was a ballerina with Afro-Jamaican roots, Valerie Campbell. When baby Naomi was only 2 months old, her father abandoned 18-year-old Valerie. At her mother’s insistence, the Black Panther never saw her unnamed father in her life. When Naomi was a teenager, the mother of the future model remarried, and Campbell had a “new” dad. However, Naomi disliked her stepfather and constantly quarreled with him.

Now supermodel Naomi Campbell admits that the breakup between her mother and father greatly influenced her character. Therefore, as it seems to the girl, she is so stubborn, resilient and purposeful. Since childhood, the black beauty has been categorical. From the age of 10, she constantly proved that she was already old enough and doing everything right. This applied not only to the family, but also to the school. A scandal at the school was guaranteed if someone in Naomi’s class was not to her liking.

Beauty Naomi


All childhood Naomi Campbell was in the care of a nanny. The girl’s mother constantly toured. At the age of 10, Campbell herself begins to learn the basics of ballet. And already at 7 she appeared in the video of the famous artist Bob Marley “Is This Love?”.

Step of the Black Panther

To avoid unnecessary domestic quarrels with her stepfather, the girl did not go home after school, but walked through the streets, parks and squares.
At the age of 15, Naomi had a meeting that turned her whole life upside down. In one of the parks, an employee of the Elite agency, Beth Boldt, saw the girl, appreciated her figure and invited her to the casting of models. Naomi passed the test with dignity and became an agency model. Exotic beauty was immediately appreciated by advertisers and glossy publications.

In 1985, Campbell flew to Paris for her first photo shoot. The whole family escorted the girl to France, in which consent reigned for a moment. All scandals with the stepfather were forgotten. However, the prudent Naomi behaved calmly only so that her parents would not forbid her to fly to Paris. A year later, the girl appeared on the cover of the famous Elle magazine.

She got there by accident. A certain dark-skinned model could not come to the photo shoot and was replaced by Campbell. By the way, Naomi was the first black girl to appear on the cover of a famous publication. The exotic beauty of the girl attracted the powers that be in the fashion world and, starting in 1988, the model began to regularly participate in shows, as well as receive tempting offers.
