Naomi Campbell To Be Featured On CNBC Meets Series

Naomi Campbell Cnbc

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 09/23/11 09:24 AM ET Updated: 11/23/11 05:12 AM ET

If anyone was going to do a TV retrospective on Naomi Campbell's life, we would've assumed it'd be an "E! True Hollywood Story," complete with exclusive interviews with Carol White and that housekeeper who got hit with a phone.

But in fact CNBC is doing the honors, featuring the supermodel on its CNBC Meets series for a 30-minute look back on Campbell's life.

Tania Bryer, the program's presenter, will have an exclusive interview with Naomi herself. But don't get too excited -- CNBC says on its website that the show will focus mainly on Campbell's "many fundraising activities particularly through her high profile charity Fashion For Relief."

Sounds, um, thrilling.

Luckily, a cast of characters will show up to give their two cents, including Quincy Jones and Simon Le Bon and Nick Rhodes talking about that Duran Duran video

But will she address the big rock on her left hand? Her recent nip slip? Her fight with Cadbury? Her involvement in the famous blood diamond case?

We're not holding our breath.

The interview is set to air on September 28th. Read more at CNBC.com.

They are guessing Naomi is engaged but her boyfriend is a married man, who has an open marriage, so if there is some big announcement it’s probably that she's pregnant.

Beautiful pictures- it makes no sense that there are so many great pictures of Naomi but Ellie seems to show her true colors when picking out pictures of certain people.

I've never watched CNBC. Certainly not a compelling reason to start.

LOL "Sounds, um, thrilling". Very funny! I dunno about you but if I was doing a feature on her I'd show up in hockey gear and a ski mask. That way if she starts to attack me I wouldn't feel much lol. Armed and ready!

I am sure there are better pictures of Naomi why do you always find the worst ones

Her cell phone will be arriving five feet in front of her. Duck!

I asked myself the same question. The fact is, it's because of their envy and hatred of her. They cannot stand the fact that Naomi still looks the same (beauty, flawless skin, body tone, weight) as she did 15 years ago.

And still has the same vile, ugly narcissistic temper.
01:36 PM on 09/26/2011
envy & hatred for a pompous shell, why bother?
03:19 PM on 09/23/2011
What with the big PR campaign for Naomi Campbell. She has not hit anyone with a cell phone in a week, it's only a matter of time, before she goes off on someone. Some poor assistant will be assaulted by her soon.

I don't think so..

Why is it that the HP can never find flattering or good pictures of the black women when it features them. I see both Tyra and Naomi have bad pictures for there stories yet none of the white actresses or models ever do.

You can't hide your true colors--deep-seated racism, perhaps?
01:13 PM on 09/23/2011
She can toss her cell phones and potential projectile­s at me anytime. I LOVE that vivacious, gorgeously exotic wildcat. Meow!!!!!!!!

Bravo to CNBC for putting the spotlight on Naomi's humanitarian endeavors instead of her indiscretions with which we're often bombarded. I'm in no way condoning her temper tantrum / anger management issues, but fact is, Naomi is arguably one of the most charitably active supermodels out there.
