And the Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Vogue cover controversy continues! This time, it's the turn of another celebrity to make a comment about the power couple appearing on the cover of the fashion magazine that has been called a “fashion bible” on numerous occasions.

Naomi Campbell is a model with a lot of experience and pedigree in the industry, so it goes without saying that her opinion should matter in the issue. That's why the anchors of the Australian Morning Show decided it was a good idea to get the famous British model to express her thoughts.

Funnily enough, Naomi wasn't expecting the scandal to pop up in the interview and was clearly taken aback by the direct query. The 43-year-old fashionista, who's also a judge on the reality series “The Face,” decided she wasn't going to carry on the dispute and avoided the matter.

“I do not want to comment,” Campbell diplomatically said, but not before she literally burst into an incontrollable laughter that sent her head back. At that moment, it became painfully evident that the model did not have the highest opinion of Kim and Kanye being included on the cover, but she still refused to comment.

It fell on the interviewer to force her into admitting why she chose to remain silent. In a move that's rather unusual for the model, who is known for her volcanic temperament and her many violent tantrum that often got her into trouble with the law.

After a brief hesitation, the model finally said, “I’m a fashion model and I’ve been working for 28 years, and when you get a Vogue cover, it’s a build in your career…. a stepping stone to achieve that,” hinting that there was something amiss with Wintour's decision to put the couple on the cover.

“Kim and Kanye haven’t earned the right to be on the cover of Vogue?” asked one of the hosts, painting Campbell into a corner and probably hoping to get a straight answer out of her, and a controversial one at that.

But Naomi must have had her nicotine patch on because she avoided this blow too by dismissing the direction in which the discussion was pushed, “Those are your words — not mine. I’m being politically correct.”

The April cover for Vogue Magazine featuring Kim Kardashian in a bridal gown, while lovingly being held by fiancé Kanye West, has sparked outrage from many people in the industry, countless fashion enthusiasts, and even other celebrities.

Most of the people who spoke up on the matter claimed that the couple had no business being featured on the cover, and that Vogue was responsible for promoting the wrong values.
