Naomi Campbell: Black people are not a trend

Naomi Campbell says increased representation of black people at the moment is "what it should be and how it should stay".

"If you look at fashion ad campaigns, there's a person of colour in every campaign - and that's a big deal," the supermodel said.

The 47-year-old poses topless with rumoured boyfriend Skepta on the cover of April's GQ magazine.

"This is the new way," she said. "We're not a trend."

Fans went wild when pictures emerged of Skepta and Naomi on the cover of the magazine, with a relationship between the two being speculated for a while.

The 35-year-old grime MC said he didn't want to make a big deal out of two black stars being on GQ's cover because "it's supposed to be like this".

"These magazines are such big deals because they shape how society sees beauty," he said.

"So thank you to everybody who helped us get here and thank you for acknowledging us. But we're still always going to do us."
