Ben Widdicombe Blind Item

Which former top model, still internationally famous but now out of work, now survives on $500-a-time fees to turn up to nightclubs and hang out at the bar?

That Noemie ________ - can't remember her name. Not Naomi Campbell. This girl was hanging around with Puffy a bit and I think her mom works for one of the agencies.

Noemie Lenoir?
Not Campbell she is an International high priced escort, she is swimming in dough

Nadel said...

Noemie Lenoir works quite a lot over in the UK - I think for 2 large companies. She also has a young son and a French husband, so not likely to be her, if this is based in the US. First name that came to my head was Sophie Anderton, but don't know if she would be considered 'internationally famous.'

I'd like to say Cokeate but she has been doing things for TopShop.

Ok, the "Bigs"

~Naomi
~Cindy
~Christy
~Kate
~Linda E....maybe?

Did I forget anyone?

Sui Generis said...

It's definitely not Noemie Lenoire. She's married to a soccer player, Claude Makelele. I doubt she needs the money.

Unknown said...

Ah, I didn't know that about Noemie. I do see her picture from time to time (e.g., in the front of Vogue where the party pics are) but haven't seen her do any campaigns or editorial.

I don't think this is any of the SUPERmodels (Naomi, Kate, Christy et al.) They all work/bill as much as they choose to. I think this is a mere TOP model. What is, say, Estella Warren up to these days?

Belle said...

What about Laetitia Casta? She showed up at Cannes and I couldn't believe how long it had been since I'd seen her.

Janepod, I like your Estella Warren guess. Also, to add to KittenKeanes supermodel list, don't forget Claudia and Paulina. They were all big around the same time as the others you listed. And while Paulina has said in recent interviews from Top Model that she is "out of a job" I would like to think she wouldn't be the kind of gal to hang out at nightclub bars.

Amber smith?

Most of the former biggies are well married, some much better taken care of after a huge divorce, still endorsed in asian countries - where lets face it, lots of has-beens still drag fans at some events there. Most of them are working as authors, photographers, editors, consultants.

she must be really, really wrecked. ohterwise, like the (campbell) naomi she could easily book a all-sheik-sex-tour and make some very easy dollars.

Pookie said...

i don't think it's necessarily a she.

i say marcus shankenwhatshisname. major has-been, but still known.

Cecilia00 said...

I like the Marcus guess. But I'll throw Ashley Richardson's name out there. (Former SI model, hasn't done much according to imdb and her wikipedia page.

FrenchGirl said...

Laeticia Casta works well in french movies and she again works with L'oreal and one ralph Lauren fragance(Notorious?)!
may be a 1980's model? Carol Alt?

FrenchGirl said...

Verushka? a name like that!

.robert said...

Rachel Hunter?

Julie said...

Nikki Taylor?
I always get sad when I think of her little sister od-ing on an asthma medicine :(

nunaurbiz said...

Marcus immediately sprang to mind for me. Wouldn't mind if he sprang to me ;-)

.robert said...

Nikki Taylor had a cable show last year and just had a baby with her NASCAR driver husband per wiki.

What about Eva Herzigova? Her anorexia seems to be in check, more or less, and I've seen photos of her at some events, but she doesn't seem to be promoting anything anywhere. (I gather she can't be trusted to keep the anorexia under control.) Could it be her? It wasn't that long ago that she was on the cover of EVERYTHING.

ItsJustMe said...

My vote is for Estella Warren. Remember how she tried to do movies (Planet of the Apes) and her career just never took off?

Ms Cool said...

Paulina P?

Erin said...

Shalom Harlow?

Hope said...

It's definitely not Paulina. She lives down the block from me with her family. Her husband is/was the lead singer and guitarist for The Cars, a famous band in the '80s. Now he's a producer for other groups, some well-known. They appear to live a very normal life.

Judi said...

Laeticia is expecting her second child this August. Not her.
Yeah, maybe Estella. Or could well be a guy.

kari B-rum said...

Linda Evangelista? Any of the girls in George Micheal's Freedom video>

Katja said...

aww, only $500.
to show up for a few hours.... bummer. seriously.
I have people coming in constantly saying they will work for less than min/wage ($8). I send them up to the foodbank (just upstairs) b/c we (I'm on the Board) can help them try to figure everything out.

J-Mo said...

the one who survived the tsunami but lost her fiance in it but then was blind-rumoured to have a drug problem. sorry, don't remember her name. anyone?

J-Mo said...

Petra Nemcova?

Unknown said...

Tatiana Patitz? Haha lol probably not I don't know...

City Councilman Doug said...

ooh I remember Tatiana...at 25 had the eye baggage of a 45 year old. She would fit for "wrecked" possibly.
