Mia Farrow: Naomi told Dirty Diamond Lie!

Mia Farrow testified in the war crimes trial against Charles Taylor in The Hague this week and the actress’s account of the night Naomi Campbell allegedly received blood diamonds makes the former super-model look like… well, a super-liar.

Last week, Campbell testified that “dirty-looking stones” were delivered to her after a dinner party in South Africa in 1997 and that she did not know who sent them. The British diva also claimed that the morning after she received the rough diamonds, she discussed the gift with Farrow and Carole White, Campbell’s agent at the time, and that it was one of these women who suggested that the diamonds came from Taylor.

On the stand, Farrow told a different story when she said: “[The next morning] I remember that the children and I were having breakfast and it was at a long table and I was at the table, I think with Quincy Jones, and what I remember is Naomi Campbell joined us at the table but before she even sat down she recounted an event of that evening and she said that in the night she had been awakened, some men had knocked at the door and they had been sent by Charles Taylor and they had given her a huge diamond and she intended to give the diamond to Nelson Mandela’s children’s charities.”

While Campbell denied she knew the diamonds were sent by Taylor, Farrow and White both say the opposite is true and that Campbell was even boastful about Taylor’s expensive gift. Furthermore, Farrow also maintains that Campbell, at the time, was reportedly given one “huge diamond” instead of multiple small stones.

So it is Mia against Naomi in a case of she said, she said. I must admit it is difficult to believe that a former fashion icon could receive one or more diamonds and not have a clue as to where they came from. Is it just me or does something (or someone whose name sounds like “Fake-omi”) seem bloody deceiving?

Naomi Campbell Throws a Wobbly at ABC News Reporters…

Anger mismanaged Naomi Campbell has had yet ANOTHER one of her famous hissy fits.

This time her victims were ABC news reporters…

When probed over allegations that deposed African despot Charles Taylor gave her a “blood diamond,” the Supermodel’s lips were sealed as she aggressively snapped: “I didn’t receive a diamond and I’m not going to speak about that.”

Its alleged that Campbell received the diamond when she was a guest of Nelson Mandela’s in South Africa in 1997.

Prosecutors in a special UN -backed court believe Campbell could have information that might prove Taylor used “blood diamonds” to fuel his reign of terror in Sierra Leone between 1997 and 2001.

Actress Mia Farrow stated: “Naomi Campbell came down…she said during the night some men had knocked on her door and she, half-asleep, had opened the door and it was representatives of President Charles Taylor and that they had given her a huge diamond. And we were like, ‘Oh, my gosh.’”

Behaving like a first-class prima donna, Campbell then got up out of chair, terminating the interview. But she couldn’t resist finishing off her rant with a quick bitch-slapping of the camera before flouncing off in a huff.

Oh lordy, lordy… Drama seems to follow that girl around everywhere!
