NAOMI CAMPBELL REMEMBERS MIJAC: Supermodel starred with King of Pop in his 1991 video 'In the Closet.'
"I grew up with Michael Jackson, he was a good friend and the most exciting and innovative entertainer to have lived," she tells Vibe.com. "No artist has connected to their audience like Michael and no one will ever be able to match what he has achieved. He gave back to people through his charity work and was an amazing father and human being.
"Michael touched people of every race, nationality, age and was the first truly global superstar. He is one of the all-time greats and his role in popular culture will never be surpassed and never ever be forgotten.
"The video is smoldering in its simplicity, and is devoid of the special effects and super-embellished wardrobe that had become his trademark, showcasing a new confidence in Michael, his hair pulled off his face in a simple straight ponytail.
"This confidence to be able to simplify and step away from what people expected from him struck a particular chord with me, at the time a young woman growing up in London, and it is something I hold true to this day. Thank you, Michael."
