(submitted by Tyomi the Glamazon) She may be known for her Diva attitude and cell phone throwing antics, but there is no doubt that Naomi Campbell is a true legend in the modeling world. Naomi began modeling at age 15 when she was discovered while window shopping by former Ford Model Beth Boldt and jumped right into the modeling scene. Ms. Campbell is a household name and known around the world for her ethnic looks and her fierce runway walk, and she has a fashion house where she has created several fragrances for the mass market. She also released an album back in the 90′s that went platinum in Japan. She has appeared on over 500 magazine covers and was the first Black model to appear on the cover of French Vogue thanks to Designer and friend Yves Saint Laurent. All in all, Naomi is one of the greats that has ever lived, and she proves it by continuing to burn up the runways and grace the covers of magazines and designer ads even at age 39.
