How supermodel Naomi Campbell starred in Michael Jackson's video (3 photos + 1 video)
When it comes to pop music legends, several names come to mind. And one of them, the most popular, is Michael Jackson. He is a phenomenon, he is a man who was able to change the world of music in no time.
An excellent performer: each of his tracks is filled with meaning, and, of course, one cannot ignore his videos. One of them starred the world-famous model Naomi Campbell. She was still very young then, but already quite popular and experienced. Naomi was only 22 years old at that time, and this work in Michael’s video was one of her calling cards in her portfolio.
Naomi herself did not hesitate to talk about the filming. Michael’s popularity at that time was not even worth discussing: Naomi was dumbfounded by his call, just as she would have been dumbfounded by a call from the president. It seemed to the model that this was some kind of waking dream. Naturally, Campbell, being a responsible person, was very scared. The podium is a podium, but filming a video is not an easy task. Here you have a director, a cameraman, and maximum attention to your every move. Falsehood and lack of return simply will not work here.
The video was filmed in California, in a deserted and quiet place. The scenery was added a little later: it was a white farm, which fit perfectly into the surroundings and was in harmony with the couple’s outfits.
Naomi has spoken many times about working with Michael in an extremely positive way. the model called him a kind, absolutely not arrogant and sincere person. The filming lasted 8 days, and during this time she managed to become Michael’s real muse and partner.
For a long time there were rumors that Michael even paid for Naomi for all those modeling shows and filming that she had planned for all these 8 days - that’s how much he wanted to see this particular model in his video. Whether it was worth it - everyone judges for himself. Our opinion is that the clip came out simply gorgeous!
