Naomi Campbell
I think it's always good to learn a craft from scratch the real way, so that you've learned it from the basis, the raw bones, and then you have that to fall back on. I personally wouldn't want it any other way.
Naomi Campbell
I live my life day by day, and that's how I continue to live it.
Naomi Campbell
