Naomi Campbell has been giving out \u201ctough love\u201d on \u2018The Face\u2019.
\nThe supermodel will be a strict mentor on her new TV show – where she sits on the panel alongside former \u2018America\u2019s Next Top Model\u2019 judge Nigel Barker and top models Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha – and has promised not to go soft on the crop of aspiring fashion models.<\/p>\n
She told OK! magazine: \u201cI\u2019m definitely sergeant major! I\u2019m the mentor that is tough love. I tell them when things are not right and I don\u2019t believe you should sugar-coat anything.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want these girls to have as much understanding and authenticity from myself as what\u2019s going to be out there in the real world of modelling. But I do give praise to my girls too.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, the programme – which will be aired on the same network as Tyra Banks\u2019 flagship show \u2018ANTM\u2019 – was emotionally taxing on the statuesque beauty as she had no idea she would become so invested in the girls\u2019 lives.<\/p>\n
Naomi sighed: \u201cIt was such an emotional journey. I had no idea it would be like this but about the fourth or fifth day it, it hit me!<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not a shrink but I felt like one. I had to be there to hear everything about there girls, like their family history, their background, their tragedies, their ups and downs. I felt very sympathetic to their stories.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 42-year-old star is convinced \u2018The Face\u2019 will find the next big fashion star with all the qualities and confidence necessary to become a household name and says she is looking for someone exactly like herself. <\/p>\n
Naomi explained: \u201cWere looking for someone who catches your eye, has drive, passionate, can take direction. <\/p>\n
Someone who walks into the room and takes your breath away. So yes, we are looking for a supermodel like myself. They have to believe in themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
