Naomi Campbell: Don’t Call Me a Supermodel

Naomi Campbell as an advocate for political correctness? At least if you’re an international beauty icon.
Naomi is standing up for beautiful women everywhere and trying to put a stop to the term supermodel, according to an appearance on this Ugly Betty podcast (promoting the show’s season finale this Thursday).
“It’s a term we don’t particularly like,” says Campbell, pointing out that the preferred nomenclature among good-looking women who are paid to promote stuff is “working model.”
Too bad no one asked her what she thinks of the term diva.
