World: Mia Farrow’s blood diamond testimony contradicts Naomi Campbell’s

  • She said in the night she had been awakened by men knocking at her door and they had been sent to her by Charles Taylor, and they had given her a huge diamond.
  • Mia Farrow • Testifying in the war crimes trial against Charles Taylor – you know, the one Naomi Campbell testified at last week. Campbell claimed she was given “dirty little rocks.” But Farrow’s testimony, which completely contradicts Campbell’s on a key fact, could be very dangerous for the supermodel. source

World: Naomi Campbell’s blood diamond testimony loaded with innuendo

  • I opened the pouch the next morning when I woke up … I saw a few stones in there, they were very small dirty-looking stones.
  • Supermodel Naomi Campbell • Discussing the gift that she took from ex-Liberian leader Charles Taylor at a Nelson Mandela dinner party way back in 1997. Twitter is laughing about the “dirty-looking stones” comment, because, well, it’s funny and odd. But what she said could prove damaging to Taylor, because it implicates him in the blood diamond trade. Campbell had no idea (at least at first) that the stones were diamonds, but her testimony contradicts interviews she’s given in the past. source

Politics: Max Headroom: Geraldo lets a good question leave his grasp

  • Maddow’s irish clone Sinead O’Connor and Rachel Maddow are talking about really serious stuff here – the whole Catholic Church abuse scandal. The activist/singer wants leadership to quit for putting reputation over the safety of children.
  • A good question, lost How did the GOP’s leading lights turn into Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann? Geraldo asked Bachmann this question directly, then asked if they would be running for president together. In both cases, she evaded.

  • Gossip, politics collideNaomi Campbell has attacked a lot of objects in her day, and the latest is a camera, which got it after an ABC News reporter asked a reasonable question about a diamond she reportedly got from an African leader. Scandal-ous!
