Diva antics aside, Naomi Campbell is redeeming herself by picking up the feminist banner.

First, she took on maternal mortality becoming a global ambassador for the White Ribbon Alliance, an international coalition for maternal health.

Naomi stated publically that "no woman should die giving birth."  Most of us don't realize that pregnancy is the leading killer of women of reproductive age in the developing world -- more than 80 percent of them preventable. A woman dies in childbirth or pregnancy every minute worldwide.

Then, Naomi took on discrimination against black models, "Where do we see a woman of colour in an advert? It's quite blatant."

"There's definitely space for more black models but has there been enough effort? It was getting better but it's slipped back this year."

Congrats, Naomi on growing a clit.
