to think that Naomi Campbell is a total and utter twonk?

[NotBreeVanDeKamp]

The most beautiful woman in the world but really can she please not get her sh*t together and stay out of the headlines?
Throwing phones at her assistant, sending her lackeys out for drugs and now accepting diamonds in the middle of the night then lying about it (yes I know she admitted it now). It would be lovely if she could be in the headlines for the right reasons.

[EldritchCleavage]

I expect very little of Naomi C so her evidence did not surprise me, though I winced at her complaining a WAR CRIMES TRIAL was 'not convenient'. Gosh, sorry.

Bigger question-what was Nelson Mandela doing hobnobbing with the odious Charles Taylor?

I know Mandela's met Mugabe, but they're leaders of countries closely linked by geography, economics and immigration, so have to liaise over shared interests. Charles Taylor ought not to have been given house room. If I recall correctly, he asked for asylum in Ghana at one stage and was quite rightly told to bog off. No one should ever have legitimised him or his evil regime.

I'm not sure she's done anything illegal has she? As irritating as it may be, she is a beautiful high-profile woman and I would imagine she gets presents from men all the time.

Whether she knew what kind of diamonds they were or not, is it illegal to receive them as a gift or is it illegal for her to bring them into the UK (or wherever they are)?

As far as I can see, she'sing see things only in $$, the day will come when she can't model anymore and she's accumulating assets for that rainy day.

It's not moral or admirable or nice but not terribly hard to understand. I don't doubt her intelligence for a moment.

[GetOrfMoiLand]

lol at the Daily mash.

'I am so sorry that the people have a hard time picking the diamonds from trees'

Probably not that far from what she actually thinks, tbh.

[tribpot]

The Daily Mash sums it up.

[GetOrfMoiLand]

Brilliant post greensleeves.

Absolutely right. She is physically beautiful, however her hideous personality is written all over her face and has obliterated the beauty.

Like a warped version of Dorian Gray.

Shame on her. The stupid, venal witch.

[ValiumSingleton]

Ugly on the inside this woman.

[crumpet]

I have no problem in believeing that he actually did, but is a bit of a leap though to argue that a dictator handing a few out as presents (not sure if the prosection have identified any other recipients?) shows that he used them to make arms purchases.

Admittedly I have not follwed the trial but if this is a key plank for the prosecution case, it is odd.

[Seabright]

Crumpet - it's trying to prove he had access to and was using rough diamonds for various purposes, therefore it's not a big leap to think he was using them to buy arms.

[Ladyanonymous]

I thought she was looking like she has overdone the botox, and rather puffy in the face.

[crumpet]

Dim quesiton alert: why did the prosectuion hope that proving that Taylor gave NC a diamond would also prove that he sold diamonds for arms?

[TheFruitWhisperer]

She knew what it was! She announced the next morning to the other breakfast guests that she'd been given a diamond! Funny that now shes in a war crimes court she calls it a 'dirty little pebble'! I bet she's still got it too. Bitch.

[flyingdoll]

She breezed in and held up her coat for someone to take from her then spoke through her assistant to me, never any eye contact. She was stroppy about everything, it was so boring and predictable. I dont think she is a happy person, shame for her.

[ilovemydogandMrObama]

Bree, sorry for hijack, but can you tell me where you got your dog's sunglasses?

[Seabright]

Flyingdoll - I think we need more details (lots of them!)

[NotBreeVanDeKamp]

wow flying, wish I had been a fly on teh wall for that!

she first annoyed me when she signed up to the rather go naked than wear fur campaign then guess what she was a doing a short time later...

[2shoes]

yanbu
but yabu to call her the most beautiful women in the world

[sanielle]

yanbu

[flyingdoll]

Omg. I had the 'pleasure' of Miss Campbell's company for 11 loooong hours. Before she was banned from darkening our doorstep ever again! Vile creature.

[TheCrackFox]

She is only beautiful on the outside.

[PersonalClown]

I can't say I've ever liked her but her answer to the prosecutions questions of if she was nervous really make me .

"So, obviously I'm just like wanting to get this over with and get on with my life. This is a big inconvenience for me."

Having to testify on war crimes, blood diamonds and civil war are an 'inconvenience' on her life??
Oxygen thief id the politest I can be.

[Greensleeves]

The irony is that the "most beautiful woman in the world" has rendered herself fugly by means of her spoilt, pinched, discontented expression having etched itself onto her features. It's no mean feat to have cheated perfect bone structure and flawless skin to make oneself so utterly unappealing - truly remarkable. Perhaps the wind changed

[Miggsie]

Remember Alexei Sayle's spoof of "THe Clothes Show"? He called it "Vacuous zombies in frocks" which just about sums up most people in the fashion industry for me.

[prettyfly1]

She knew EXACTLY what she was getting and she didnt care. Nasty, dirty, vile piece of work whose looks dont hide how truly unnattractive she is. VILE.

[blametheparents]

YANBU

She is a self-obsessed, prima donna.

Not nice

[5DollarShake]

YANB in the slightest bit U.
