Naomi Campbell: Sarah brown encourages me to help charity
Naomi Campbell says meeting Gordon Brown’s wife Sarah opened her eyes to lack of facilities for women giving birth in the Third World.
The model met Sarah to learn about the White Ribbon Alliance, which promotes safer childbirth. The PM's wife lost her daughter Jennifer Jane when she was just 10 days old.
‘When Sarah started talking I though she was going to cry,’ she says. ‘When someone’s talking from experience, it’s very touching.’
Naomi, 38, organised her recent style For Relief show to raise money for the charity.
10,000 women die while giving birth every week, a figure that horrifies Naomi.
‘It’s a huge problem,’ she tells the Daily Mirror. ‘We’re very fortunate but these people don’t have the equipment to deliver a bouncing baby.
‘I connected with it, I’m a woman, I’d like to have kids.’

Naomi Campbell felt a connection to the Great Sphinx of Giza Egyptian landmark
Naomi Campbell felt a spiritual connection to the Great Sphinx of Giza.
The supermodel spoke to the half-lion, half-human Egyptian landmark while on a personal tour conducted by secretary general of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities Zahi Hawass.
Hawass said: "She is particularly interested in the Great Sphinx of Giza. She claims she feels a great spiritual connection to it. I took her to visit and she started talking to it."
However, the acclaimed archaeologist cannot reveal what Naomi said to the decaying statue.
He added: "That is a secret. She wouldn't even tell me."
The bizarre revelation comes shortly after Naomi hit out at Kabbalah - the mystical Jewish faith whose followers include Madonna and Demi Moore - comparing it with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
The tempestuous model said: "I knew about Kabbalah before Madonna got involved. Kabbalah is not a religion, it's a program.
"I don't like getting hooked on things like that. It reminds me of AA but just with different words.
"They've got the same principles. We're all looking for positivity in our lives and looking towards the light but I just believe in God.
"I am religious. I pray most days and do my thing. But each to their own."
