Astronomic beauty. Such a sweet young girl...I like how they older girls mentored her and treated her well. She looks so sweet walking down the catwalk at 2:22.

Baby Naomi! So young! It’s also in her walking. Graceful but not as assured as it would be later!

She looks so sweet, bubbly and innocent here. It’s crazy how so many people obsessed with staying young but don’t realize that as you get older you become wiser. I definitely prefer Naomi now than this Naomi.

Gorgeous with that slim and soft face and features. She doesn't look like herself anymore with her cheekbone and jaw implants.

She looks blasian here.. people forget she’s half Chinese half African which gives her her unique beauty. Her dance background gives her a balletic grace.

“Down to earth”!! I guess everyone was down to earth at some point and will be again. But that is not how anyone would think of her by the time she became THE Naomi. Her runway style here reminds me of Veronica Webb. Miming the character instead of channeling it in a subtler way. No shade, but the blatant dancing calls attention to itself in a way that I think she would decide was not her style anymore.
