Personal Quotes
"I just did not have time to sit down and write a book." - When
questioned about her use of a ghost writer for her novel "Swan" (1996).
Campbell admitted that she wrote almost none of the book.
I never diet. I smoke. I drink now and then. I never work out. I
work very hard, and I am worth every cent."-December 1999 issue of
Playboy
I look at [modeling] as something I'm doing for black people in general.
I love England, especially the food. There's nothing I like more than a lovely bowl of pasta.
When I started out modeling, there weren't casting directors and
there weren't stylists, so you just dealt directly with the designer. We
were all much closer back then.
