Guns N’ Roses Join Naomi for Charity
“We don’t wake up for less than $10,000 a day,” supermodel Linda Evangelista famously told Vogue back in 1990. But British supermodel Naomi Campbell will work for free, although she expects Muscovites to cough up 5,000 euros ($6,350), when she makes her debut in the city as hostess of her NEON charity event Monday.
Guns N’ Roses will play the event organizers say will be a combination of fashion show, award ceremony and entertainment show, and a host of celebrities are expected attend. Organizers said earlier in the week that Aerosmith might also play, but they denied that on Wednesday.
Individual tickets for the charity auction were still available Wednesday.
“I’m living here … everyone has been very nice to me and welcoming, and I wanted to give back,” Campbell told Reuters in an interview in late April. The money will go to two Russian charities, the Northern Crown, set up by Irina Kudrina, wife of Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin, and the IRIS Foundation set up by Dasha Zhukova, girlfriend of businessman Roman Abramovich.
Campbell said previously that she hopes that the event will help “a lot of young artists and charities in Russia that are dedicated to improving the lives of disadvantaged women and children.”
Campbell previously hosted a fashion relief event in 2008 when she raised thousands of dollars for The White Ribbon Alliance.
The event will take place in the Moskva-City complex in a building constructed by Capital Group, which is co-headed by Campbell’s boyfriend, Vladislav Doronin.
