Naomi Campbell Clarifies Rihanna Beef Rumors

September 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

We’ve seen this year how far celebrity beefs can go, but we forget that so many of them are just rumors that don’t have much to go off of. Ironically enough, this fuels the idea of a feud even further. This was the case for Rihanna and Naomi Campbell, two superstars in their respective (multiple) fields that have crossed paths plenty of times before in amicable ways. Still, at one point in the road, fans speculated that there was a rift, possibly starting in 2017 due to their common ex, Hassan Jameel. However, Campbell recently dispelled these beef rumors outright.

“I’m not about to let the world pit two Black women against each other. We are two women with two children, mothers,” she reportedly stated, according to The Jasmine Brand. For those unaware, this narrative recently resurfaced due to Naomi Campbell and Rihanna crossing paths at an Alaïa show during New York Fashion Week. RiRi seemed to walk past Campbell and stylist Law Roach without saying hello, and a subsequent social media interaction between the pair had fans speculating that they were shading the Barbadian superstar in response.

At least now we know that these beef rumors are just hearsay. Also, Naomi Campbell has much larger problems to handle than a speculative Rihanna beef. She received a ban from her trustee position at her charity Fashion For Relief due to alleged financial misconduct, a disqualification that reportedly lasts five years per The Guardian. “Fashion for Relief, which has been removed from the register of charities, was set up for the purpose of poverty relief and advancing health and education by making grants to charities or other organizations and by giving resources directly to those affected,” the UK’s Charity Commission stated. “The inquiry saw no evidence that trustees had reviewed the charity’s operating model to ensure fundraising methods were in the charity’s best interest and costs were reasonable relative to income generated.”

Meanwhile, Rihanna recently bonded with another celebrity mom, Nicki Minaj, over an adorable video of her son RZA. If she and Naomi Campbell ever really get into it, we know how they could find common ground.

Naomi Campbell Shuts Down Rumors of Tension with Rihanna After Alaïa Show

September 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Two weeks ago, social media buzzed with speculation that supermodel Naomi Campbell and celebrity stylist Law Roach were shading Rihanna after the singer appeared to walk past them without acknowledgment while sitting front row at the Alaïa fashion show. The brief moment, captured on camera, sparked rumors of tension between the two icons.

However, Naomi Campbell has quickly downplayed the drama, addressing the circulating rumors head-on.

In an interview with The New York Times, Campbell dismissed the idea of a feud, saying, “I’m not about to let the world pitch two Black women against each other.” She emphasized the importance of unity, adding, “We are two women with two children, mothers.”

By speaking out against the fake beef, Naomi Campbell is making it clear that there is no animosity between her and Rihanna, focusing instead on solidarity and respect. As two influential figures in the fashion and entertainment industries, both women continue to inspire with their work, their motherhood journeys, and their unwavering grace in the face of public scrutiny.

Naomi Campbell Banned From Being Charity Trustee After Alleged Financial Misconduct

September 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Naomi Campbell has been banned from being a trustee for the charity she founded almost 20 years ago, following a Charity Commission investigation that resulted in some shocking findings. According to The Guardian, Fashion for Relief allegedly only put a small fraction of the money it raised towards good causes, resulting in Campbell’s five-year disqualification. Allegedly, the probe revealed that the charity spent tens of thousands of pounds on things like flights, luxury hotel rooms, spa treatments, cigarettes, and more for Campbell.

Unauthorized consultancy payments were also allegedly made to one of the model’s fellow trustees, Bianka Hellmich. The UK’s Charity Commission released a statement on its findings today. “Fashion for Relief, which has been removed from the register of charities, was set up for the purpose of poverty relief and advancing health and education by making grants to charities or other organizations and by giving resources directly to those affected,” it reads in part.

“The inquiry saw no evidence that trustees had reviewed the charity’s operating model to ensure fundraising methods were in the charity’s best interest and costs were reasonable relative to income generated,” the report continues. Two other trustees were also banned. At the time of writing, Campbell has yet to comment on the situation publicly. This isn’t the first scandal she’s been involved in recently, however.

Earlier this month, she participated in the viral TikTok “demure” trend alongside celebrity stylist Law Roach. Their video prompted fans to speculate that they were shading Rihanna. Campbell and the songstress have a long history of not getting along. They recently went viral for an awkward encounter at New York Fashion Week, where Rihanna seemingly ignored Campbell.

Naomi Campbell And Law Roach Accused Of Shading Rihanna In Viral Post

September 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Naomi Campbell and Law Roach are being accused of throwing shade at Rihanna after taking part in the viral “demure” trend on social media. In a video on Instagram, Roach said to his followers: “We don’t go to the shows like the other girls. We don’t come with our ta-tas out or our chi-chis out. Very demure,” which prompted Campbell to add: “Very mindful. We don’t give too much … it’s not about showing yourself, it’s about showing the clothes.”

Fans in the comments section quickly interpreted the remarks as being meant to disrespect Rihanna. “I feel like this is a Rihanna shade and I HOPE she does NOT respond. This is peasant behavior,” one user wrote. Another added: “If y’all mad she ignored y’all just say that. Very cutesy.” That fan was referencing an incident that occurred at the Alaïa fashion show during New York Fashion Week. Rihanna stopped by to say hello to former British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enniful, who sat next to Campbell and Roach. Despite doing so, she didn’t bother to speak to either of them.

Campbell previously shot down the idea of having an issue with Rihanna during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. “Everything’s fine,” she said. “I’m an actress now, Andy. I don’t have beef especially with Black women. The support is powerful, we are all out there doing the same thing. We all have the same struggle.”

Law Roach Appears To Shade Rihanna

In the wake of the latest drama, Roach wrote on X (formerly Twitter): “Can Yall just stop making sh*t up?” Check out those full comments below. Be on the lookout for further updates on Naomi Campbell and Law Roach as well as Rihanna on HotNewHipHop.

Fans Believe Rihanna And Naomi Campbell Have Beef Following A Viral Video, But It Is Reportedly One-Sided

Supporters believe Asap Rocky isn’t the only person in the Fenty household with a longstanding feud. Users online are convinced that Rihanna and Naomi Campbell are involved in a heated quarrel.

A viral video (viewable here) of Rihanna seemingly ignoring Naomi Cambell during a New York Fashion Week event on September 6 has users online in a tizzy. As the “Lift Me Up” singer made her way through the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum to her assigned seat of Alaia fashion the two fashion heavyweights seems to brush each other off.

Fans of each lady began to dig into the interaction further. Other clips from the event show Rihanna greeting several notable attendees including fellow supermodel Linda Evangelista (viewable here). Still no warm exchange between Rihanna and Campbell or even Law Roach can be found.

After the whisper grew louder, a source close to the matter told TMZ that the beef was one-sided. An insider with connection to Naomi Campbell told that outlet that Campbell doesn’t have a problem with Rihanna. The individual pointed out that Campbell’s face lit up with a smile as Rihanna made her way towards Campbell, and she even attended to help when her garment got caught up in her shoes.

Could this be a case of public overthinking? Sure. So, until Rihanna or Naomi Campbell address the rumor it is probably best not to rack your brain over it.

Rihanna Catches Heat For Allegedly Ignoring Naomi Campbell At New York Fashion Week

September 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Rihanna and Naomi Campbell have had beef rumors swirling around them for years now, none of which have really manifested into anything concrete. That being said, we don’t really blame folks for assuming that they don’t like each other given what little we have seen. For example, both superstars attended a New York Fashion Week event on Friday (September 6). The Dior partner went up to greet a man who was sitting right next to Campbell, and RiRi didn’t seem to acknowledge her at all. You can see this for yourself in the video down below, which many fans are treating as gospel.

Furthermore, for those unaware, Naomi Campbell denied that she and Rihanna had any sort of issues back in 2021. As for what the origin of this whole thing is, we’re not sure, although many assume that it’s just a competitive relationship in the worlds of media, fashion, and more. It’s far from Campbell’s only big-name celebrity interaction this year, though, which shouldn’t really be surprising considering her overwhelming fame. She sat front row with Kendrick Lamar (or rather, the other way around, since she’s the fashion icon here) for Chanel’s runaway earlier this year.

Rihanna & Naomi Campbell’s NYFW Interaction… Or Lack Thereof

Elsewhere, Rihanna doesn’t have to worry about people like Naomi Campbell when her husband A$AP Rocky is right there to sing her praises. “It’s crazy how we find balance with our chaotic schedules,” he told Billboard of their bond. “[The relationship] is going great. I don’t think there’s a more perfect person because when the schedules are hectic, she’s very understanding of that. And when the schedule’s freed up, that’s when you get to spend [the] most time together. It’s all understanding and compatibility.”

However, RiRi might have to make some major moves in her fashion-related businesses soon. Her CEO for Savage X Fenty quit after a year, instead taking a position at Victoria’s Secret. It’s unclear how this will impact Rihanna’s endeavors, and we still don’t have much news as to what the next steps are. If only there was a supermodel with decades of experience and plenty of style and business acumen to ask advice from…

Summer Walker Poses With Naomi Campbell Leading Fans To Claim They Look Alike

February 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fans of Summer Walker are no strangers to scintillating Instagram shots. The R&B darling loves showing off her looks and her fits on social media. But in her newest post, the focus was more about who she was with than what she was looking like. “She’s iconic” Walker captioned an Instagram post featuring a picture of her alongside supermodel Naomi Campbell. But fans rushed to the comments to compare Walker’s own looks to the legendary runway star.

In the comments of a repost of the picture of them together, everyone shared a similar sentiment. “It’s giving mother and daughter beautiful BYE” one of the top comments reads and it’s far from the only one. “Lol They Look Alike. It’s Giving Mother & Daughter” and “I’m tryna decide is that Face App made them look alike or do they legit look alike” two other comments read. Some of the top comments comparing the two have racked up thousands of likes. Check out the picture that has fans comparing the two cultural figures below.

Summer Walker recently attracted the ire of the Barbz for a picture of her with an entirely different celeb. That was unsurprisingly Megan Thee Stallion who posed with Walker for a pair of pictures shared to Instagram. That didn’t sit right with fans of Nicki Minaj, who is currently embroiled in a pretty heated beef with Megan. Though Summer didn’t make any real acknowledgement of their rivalry the picture with Megan seems like a subtle embrace of her side.

After a teaser she shared back in December, fans suspect Summer Walker could be working on a remix. The track they’ve honed in on is SZA and Ty Dolla $ign’s “Hit Different.” The song ultimately didn’t make the cut for SZA’s album SOS. But she’s been teasing a deluxe edition called LANA for months that could serve as the perfect place to reintroduce fans to the track. Do you think Summer Walker and Naomi Campbell look alike in the newly shared photo? Let us know if you agree with the fans in the comment section below.

Kendrick Lamar usually waits a few years between releasing new work. But thanks to the “Rich Spirit” rapper’s creative service company, PgLang, which he runs with Dave Free, he’s making an exception. On January 20, in a joint upload to Instagram, the company unveiled their latest creative endeavor with high-fashion house Chanel.

Naomi Campbell Net Worth 2023: What Is The Model Worth?

August 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Naomi Campbell has been a dominant force in the modeling industry for decades. As of 2023, her net worth stands at an impressive $80 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. But how did she amass such wealth, and what has her journey been like? Let’s delve into the life and career of this iconic supermodel.

Naomi Elaine Campbell was born in Streatham, South London, on May 22, 1970. Her early life was marked by her mother’s Jamaican heritage and her own Afro-Jamaican and Chinese-Jamaican roots. Naomi’s journey into entertainment began early. She appeared in Bob Marley’s “Is This Love” music video at the tender age of 7.

However, her true calling was discovered at age 15 when Beth Boldt, head of the Synchro Model Agency, spotted her while window-shopping in Covent Garden. This chance encounter led to her gracing the cover of British Elle before she even turned 16. Naomi’s rise was meteoric, and she soon became one of the top three models globally during the late 1980s and 1990s. Her achievements include being the first black model to appear on the covers of French Vogue, British Vogue, and Time.

Diversifying Her Portfolio

While modeling was her primary profession, Naomi didn’t limit herself to the runway. She ventured into music, releasing an R&B-pop album, and tried her hand at acting, appearing in movies and TV shows like Zoolander and Empire. Her entrepreneurial spirit also led her to release a series of fragrances in collaboration with Cosmopolitan Cosmetics.

Naomi’s journey wasn’t without its challenges. Known for her fiery temperament, she faced multiple lawsuits from former employees and was involved in several assault cases. These incidents, however, did not deter her from her path. Instead, she took responsibility for her actions, attending anger management classes and serving community service.

Advocacy & Philanthropy

Beyond her professional achievements, Naomi has been a vocal advocate for diversity in the fashion industry. She and fellow models Iman and Bethann Hardison formed the Diversity Coalition to promote inclusion on the runway. Her philanthropic efforts are commendable. She supports numerous charitable causes, including the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund and Breakthrough Breast Cancer. In 2005, she founded two charities: We Love Brazil, aimed at combating poverty in Brazil, and Fashion for Relief, which organizes fashion shows to raise funds for various global crises.

Real Estate Ventures

Naomi’s net worth isn’t just a result of her modeling and entertainment endeavors. She has made significant investments in real estate. One notable property is the futuristic mansion in Moscow, a gift from her then-boyfriend Vladislav Doronin, valued at £109 million. Additionally, she owned a Manhattan duplex, which she bought for $4 million and sold for $4.5 million a year later.

Conclusion

Naomi Campbell’s net worth of $80 million in 2023 is a testament to her hard work, resilience, and versatility. From her early days in South London to her global dominance in the fashion industry, Naomi’s journey is a story of passion, perseverance, and unparalleled success. As she continues to break barriers and set new standards, her legacy as one of the greatest supermodels of all time remains unchallenged.
