Naomi Campbell Thought She “Wouldn’t Survive” The Modelling World – Wrong! It’s The Other Way Around

40-year-old British Naomi Campbell admits she pushed herself too hard because she thought she would go “crazy” if she had to sit down and evaluate what she wanted out of life.   She said:

“To be honest, there were times I thought I wouldn’t survive. The time between 1998 and 2005 was especially bad. During that time I avoided looking in the mirror, because I didn’t like the person who was looking back at me.  So I had to find out what I wanted and what I didn’t want. The thing is, as a model you’re used to being on the go, so just the thought of sitting down and thinking about something drives you crazy.  “I used to have a lot of problems. Amongst others I drank too much so I joined the Alcoholics Anonymous to get and stay sober.”

Naomi– who is dating Russian billionaire Vladislav Doronin – insists she now has no interest in going out parting because her priorities have changed as she has grown older.  Yep her priority is to be a nutjob mean bitch LOL ;-)

She added to Germany’s InTouch magazine: “I’ve grown up. I’ve stopped driving myself to exhaustion. I want to lead a calm life. I’m done with partying. When you get older things that seemed important to you when you were 20 suddenly lose significance.”   Naomi also credits having friends who aren’t afraid to tell her the truth as helping her stay on the right path.  She said: “I don’t like yeasayers.   I think people like that are extremely dangerous. I need people who tell me the truth – no matter how harsh it is. I’ve got a lot of respect for them.”   I wonder if those people who tell her the truth have told her she is NUTS?
