Agent Carole White Is Still Talking About Naomi’s Diva Antics


For reasons unfathomable and yet incredibly obvious (read: press) Naomi Campbell‘s former agent turned nemesis Carole White just can’t seem to stop talking about the super in the press. Despite going to town in the Daily Mail back in February, White dishes more divalicious details in today’s issue of The Telegraph, including the time Naomi let a truckload of specially named and rare black tulips die because she didn’t feel like showing up.

To whit:

Christy and Naomi are very different characters. Christy was a dream, very professional and calm, whereas Naomi was less disciplined and used to get me into trouble. Mostly it was because she was late, but sometimes she just didn’t turn up… She missed planes too. Once after she missed a flight to Austria I had to organise a private jet to get her to the job because the money was so huge she had to be there.

Another time a Dutch nursery named a rare black tulip after her and asked her to promote it. Hundreds of the flowers were driven to London in a refrigerated van to fill a studio. Naomi was supposed to lie in the middle of them for a commercial, but she didn’t turn up for the shoot – she was sick. These poor guys watched the tulips wilt in the studio and the ad never happened.

Sure, it’s kind of a salacious story (and that Christy line is a helluva dig) but also: really boring. Naomi Campbell is a diva. Call us if she starts volunteering at a homeless shelter or rescuing abandoned kittens or something.

    OK, enough already.
    Yes the whole world knows that Miss Campbell is a reported diva, she’s admitted to bad behaviour and been punished for it on a few occasions but isn’t it time Carole White stopped riding on her coat tails?
    If she were reporting on something that happened last week or even last year then maybe it would be a news story, but this just smacks of someone making money on the back of someone else – seem like a parasitic relationship to me. And whatever you think of Miss Campbell, it’s clear who the parasite is in this relationship!
