Naomi Campbell: I Am Not A Role Model  Naomi Campbell |
Catwalk queen Naomi Campbell who recently found herself surrounded in blood diamond controversy insists that she doesnot deserve to be considered as a role model. The beauty confessed that she has committed many mistakes in her life and is ‘not a perfect human being’.
Campbell, 40 has always remained in headlines for her strings of scandals and various claims of assault.
"I make many mistakes. Many mistakes. I`m not a perfect human being. I have to learn from my mistakes. And a lot of the ones I`ve made have been public," she was quoted as saying.
"So, I always get nervous when people speak about something that sounds like a role model, because I don`t know if I`ve been a great role model myself. I don`t think I have in certain aspects of my life."
"But I`m trying to do better. I admit to my mistakes. I admit to the things that I`ve done wrong. I admit it. But I`m trying to do right by myself and my life now," she further added.
However, the supermodel admitted that she never gets depressed by her stints but keep herself away from the public eye until she is ready to face the world.
"I don`t get depressed. When I feel an attack, I withdraw. I disappear, I replenish, and then I come back. I`m not going to wallow in self-pity and not live my life. There are always going to be some falls in life for everybody, no matter what career you have. You have to roll with the punches and keep going," she said.
