Resume: In August 1988, when Naomi was just 18, she appeared as the first black woman to grace the cover of a major fashion magazine - French Vogue - and was catapulted to supermodeldom. Naomi has two books out, a novel called 'Swan' which was released in 1995 (it turns out that somebody else wrote most of it) and a book simply titled 'Naomi'. Has a Barbie doll, made to her likeness, for sale. Appeared in music videos for Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin and Vanilla Ice.
Romance: She goes through them so fast it's hard to keep track. Her latest fling was with New York nightclub owner Eric Goode.
Know for: Her unbelievably bad temper tantrums and always being hours late for jobs. She once refused to walk the runway because model Tyra Banks was in the same show. Opened the 'Fashion Cafe' in New York as a joint venture with Elle Macpherson, Claudia Schiffer and Christy Turlington.
Quotes: Not too long ago, Naomi did a strip tease at a New York City nightclub, with Bridget Hall and Kate Moss in the audience. It's rumoured that when she and Robert De Niro were dating, she suspected him of spending the night with another woman, so she reported a fire at his apartment. She has a noticable scar on her nose.
