Naomi Campbell, Model Journalist, Asks Cristina Kirchner A Bunch Of Stupid Crap

Journalist, humanitarian, and sometime model Naomi Campbell recently sat down with Argentine President Cristina Kirchner - much like she did with the sexy and enigmatic Hugo Chavez a while back. Well, it turns out that acquiring your journalism degree at Dick Su-King House o’ Learnin’ has its drawbacks. Naomi was given a huge scoop and kind of, well. Blew it:

She opened her inquiry, diplomatically, with a question about why Kirchner covets the Falkland Islands.

And then it all goes to shit:

Kirchner replies: “It is the shame of a colonial enclave in the 21st century. We lived the Malvinas war very intensely. We knew about the planes that took off from the base and never landed again. I think Mrs Thatcher would know that she has won a battle. But she will never be able to hide the UK’s condition as a colonial country in the 21st century.”

A scoop on a plate - Argentina intends restating its claim to the Falklands. So what was Naomi’s follow up question? “How did you feel when you saw Madonna playing Evita on the screen?”

Yes, inquiring minds were clamoring to know! In 1996! Sigh. And you know it’s only a matter of time before Naomi gets her own syndicated talk show.
