Naomi's got a new BF?

'Omi's never had an issue with the swirl, as it were...

NAOMI CAMPBELL's people are refusing to comment on reports that she is dating billionaire financier Teddy Forstmann. However, Frostmann's reps are more giving: "They've been friendly for five years," one told PAGESIX.COM. "They met through [Naomi's honorary grandfather] Nelson Mandela and they both sit on the board of Mandela's Children's Fund."



This is financier Teddy Forstmann.

Nothing on the Associated Press website. I hope it's not true either. My family and I would be devistated! We're big Luther fans!

Yes. On WGCI. It was breaking news, so it may be a minute.

WE REMEMBER LUTHER VANDROSS: Singer dies at the age of 55. *We have just received word that R&B icon Luther Vandross has died. He was 55.


The singer and songwriter had been ailing since suffering a stroke in April 2003 that left him in a coma for nearly two months. His last album, “Dance With My Father,” was released on June 10, 2003, the same week that he came out of his coma.

More details to come.

I am truly feeling for Mama Mary ... Luther's siblings all predeceased him, according to the articles.

R.I.P. Luther



I was very upset when I heard that he passed. I was hoping that he would have pulled through the effects of his stroke--at least he is not suffering anymore.

My condolences to his family members (especially his mother) and friends.

Now he can truly dance with his father...again
