Naomi Campbell
 Campbell
was born in London, England. Her mother, Valerie, was a ballet
dancer of Jamaican heritage, who told Arena in 1996 that her
daughter's unnamed father is an African man with distant Chinese
ancestry.
She attended Dunraven School, a comprehensive school run by
Inner London Education Authority in Streatham and attended the
London Academy for Performing Arts.
A graduate of the Italia Conti Academy stage school, Campbell's
first appearance to a wider public was in February 1978 when she
was cast as a pupil to appear in a music video with Bob Marley
for his song "Is This Love?". In 1982, she appeared in another
music video, this time as a tap dancer for Culture Club's "I'll
Tumble 4 Ya".
Celebrity Big
Brother
Celebrity Big Brother 2007 was the fifth series of the United
Kingdom reality television series Celebrity Big Brother, a spin-off
of Big Brother. The series was broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK
(also on S4C in Wales), and involved a number of celebrities
referred to as 'housemates', who live in the Big Brother House
with no contact with the outside world. In recent series, the
show's producers have offered celebrities money to appear on
Celebrity Big Brother.
Celebrity Big Brother 2007 started on 3 January 2007, and ran
for 26 days. The launch show peaked at 8.2 million viewers,
making it the second most-watched launch in Big Brother history.
It was the first Celebrity Big Brother series to be shown in the
16:9 widescreen format and the final Celebrity series to be held
in the Elstree compound with the regular series later in the
year being the final one overall.
