Talk about hitting the pavement in a big way! Just recently Naomi Campbell was making news as she landed a lead role in Catherine Breillat's film,'Bad Love', and now she's landed another plum role, but this time is it's a supportive role for a well-known director. In an interview she did with British Vogue magazine, Campbell states that she has signed on for a small role in Spike Lee's new film, 'Miracle at St. Anna' .
"It's a very very small role but it involves subject matter that I'm really passionate about...it's a subject that nobody has ever touched upon. There are all the war time films of course but you never see a black soldier in any of them. I'll do anything for Spike and I really think we should be more educated about the role of people of colour in our history." - says Campbell.
I know that Spike Lee loves to give folks a shot. Tisha Campbell, Halle Berry, Cynda Williams, Queen Latifah, Rosie Perez, Rosario Dawson, Theresa Randle, and Dania Ramirez have all benefited from being in a Spike Lee film, and hopefully Naomi will too.

Well actually this is not the first time she has been in a Spike Lee film. She was in Girl 6. Hopefully this will be more fruitful for her and raise awareness for the black soldiers serving our country!

I AM SO SICK OF OUR AMERICAN MEN LETTING THESE FOREIGN HOS USE THEM. HALF THE TIME, ESPECIALLY THIS NAOMI WITCH WON'T EVEN SPEAK TO A BLACK PERSON. LOOK HOW SHE DID TYRA. TRIED TO DESTROY HER. IF SPIKE HAD AN OUNCE OF SENSE HE WOULD LEARN A LESSON ABOUT THIS RAGING MANIAC AND KEEP AWAY FROM HER. NOW THAT THE WHITES DON'T WANT HER, SHE'S RUNNING TO GET SUPPORT FROM BLACK AMERICAN MEN. SPIKE BETTER WATCH OUT BEFORE HE ENDS UP LIKE EDDIE MURPHY.
AND LOOK AT THAT LITTLE OLD IGNORANT RIHANNA WHO JAYZ LIFTED UP. SOON AS THEY GET A LITTLE SUCCESS TO GET A WHITE MAN TO SHARE IT WITH BLACK MEN AIN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEM. WHITE MEN ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN THEIR MONEY. THEY'RE ALL FOOLS.

I agree solitaire. Foreign born black women are not the ones you should be hating on Tracy. I am one myself. It actually means you've bought into the bull that foreign born women are better than you, or you wouldn't feel threatened by them. You have value just as much as any woman at all. Live it and love babes.
