Supermodel Naomi Campbell says she refused a “ton of money” to be part of an “all-black show” because she wants to promote “balanced inclusion” in the fashion industry.
Campbell said: “I feel a difference on many levels now — but someone I know recently called it a ‘cult’.”
“It wasn’t that way when you had everything, was it? You wouldn’t say that when you were getting everything handed on a plate, and things were coming your way constantly,” she said.
“I’m the kind of person where, with my friends — and I take that word very seriously — I’m happy for what they get. So to hear this called a ‘cult’, that was like, ‘Wait a second: so you want me to feel bad now that things are turning the other way?’ We just want balance, end of story. I won’t do an all-black show, for instance, because it would be hypocritical given what I’ve stood for, for so long.” (IANS)
