LONDON, Apr 23: Supermodel-actress Naomi Campbell has praised her close modelling friends especially Christy Turlington, who she revealed would refuse modelling jobs if they wouldn’t hire both of them.
The 45-year-old has spoken of the close bond she had with her fellow model in the 1990s and insists they have always supported each other, reported Female First.
“She was my roommate, yeah! I actually don’t think I would be modelling if it weren’t for her. She is a really generous person and an amazing soul and we are still in contact with each other all the time and whenever I see her there is no love lost. We just pick up where we left off. Our whole group is very supportive of each other,” Campbell said.
“Christy would say to designers, ‘If you aren’t using Naomi in the show you aren’t using us’, because some designers wouldn’t use black models … Not many people would do that and put themselves in jeopardy. My girls, you know, we were not rivals and we were very supportive of each other and still are.” (PTI)
