Danielle Staub, take note. Supermodel Naomi Campbell is totally on team Teresa Giudice.
"She's a role model," Campbell told Bravo's Andy Cohen on Thursday's Watch What Happens: Live of the Real Housewives of New Jersey star. "A mother, businesswoman, [who's] cooking, cleaning the house -- and her kids always look...amazing!"

Giudice was flattered by Campbell's words of praise.
"I don't know how I do it, I just do," she said. "Everyone asks me, I swear to God, but I have a lot of energy. And great genes, I guess."

The supermodel -- who was sentenced to community service in 2007 for throwing a phone at a maid, among several other angry outbursts -- says she could sympathize with Giudice's emotional confrontation with Staub on the Aug. 30 episode.
When Staub claimed that Giudice failed to acknowledge the birth of her nephew on the Aug. 30 episode, Giudice leaped out of her seat, got two inches from Staub's face and screamed, "Do not bring up my family!" before hurling other expletives.

"I understood," Campbell says of Giudice's decision to shove host Cohen to the side when lunging at Staub. "She didnt see [him] at that moment. you mess with her family and that's what you get!"
Giudice, on the other hand, stands by her actions.
"I dont regret anything I do," she told the pair. "I stand by it -- I'm not like Danielle!"

Tell Us What You Think
15Namoi, Teresa a role model? You have got to be kidding me? *rollseyes* Teresa is a role model for a drama queen perhaps.
Bravo should be sued over the the fact that they allowed to bully Danielle. She was harassed beoynd the reason. The action of Bravo are criminal. Teresa and manzo clan were permiited to act as vilans toward Danielle.
Teresa is a bully and an idiot.. Teresa...spend all your time making kids with your hubby...maybe it will take some steam off your stupid head
Oh God (rolls eyes)
i like these...haha...two morons like each other...they should get together...and they probably will try to kill each other
Both Morons!
Wow, seriously!!!!??????
She would think twice about hitting me with a phone.
Naomi Campbell is commenting on how Teresa is a role model. This is like Bin Ladden commenting Sadam Hussein.Naomi has issues also. She hits her hired help with phones.
Theresa's kids are HORRIBLY spoiled. They are rude and unruly. How is that a role model? So she cleans that huge, awful home by herself? I don't believe that. One set of parents live with them to help in the financial situation, plus babysitting etc. Theresa and hubby are really liars and cheats. She keeps denying everything, even though all the documents are on the internet! Liars!
This is like Saddam Hussein commenting Osama Bin Laden. Two peas in a pot.Naomi Campbell has also lost a lot of creditability. SERIOUSLY you all can do much better than that.
"Women be shopping, Women Be shopping."
Naomi Campbell has anger-management issues. She has a bad attitude and tends to get alittle too violent for her own good. She needs to check into anger management classes.
I think Naomi just wants to befriend Teresa, so she can Smack her!
OMG is she serious??? HOW IS A TAX CHEAT, LIAR, FRAUD, THIEF and rude person a good role model? WTH IS NAOMI SMOKING OR TAKING??? I just lost ALOT of respect for Naomi after reading this... That woman is a DISGUSTING FRAUD and is not anywhere NEAR being a role model!! The woman shopped and shopped then LIED to the court about money, LIED on TAX RETURNS and everything else! SHE EVEN KEPT SHOPPING DURING BANKRUPTCY!!!!! SHE IS NOT A GOOD PERSON IN ANY POSSIBLE WAY!!
