00:00 Speaking of Naomi, she's in Milan today,

00:02 along with Demi Moore, Kate Moss, and Linda Evangelista

00:06 for Fendi's Spring/Summer 2024 show.

00:09 As for supermodel Cindy Crawford,

00:11 well, she's been posting from Nashville

00:13 and making headlines for calling out Oprah

00:15 for this awkward moment on her show in 1986.

00:19 Does she always have this body?

00:21 Stand up just a moment.

00:22 Now this is what I call a bod.

00:24 I was like the chattel for a child,

00:27 like be seen and not heard.

00:29 When you look at it through today's eyes,

00:31 when Oprah's like, "Stand up and show me your body,

00:35 "like show us why you're worthy of being here."

00:38 In the moment, I didn't recognize it.

00:40 Only when I looked back at it and I was like,

00:41 "Oh my gosh, that was so not okay, really."

00:44 Especially from Oprah.

00:46 This morning, Oprah's team removed the archived interview

00:49 from her YouTube page, but Cindy's comments

00:52 come at an interesting time for the TV titan.

00:54 Shamed every single week.

00:57 Oprah talked body image during a discussion

01:00 of the state of weight,

01:01 which dropped this afternoon on Oprah Daily.

01:03 This is a world that has shamed people

01:05 for being overweight forever, you know,

01:07 and all of us who've lived it know

01:09 that people just, people treat you differently.

01:11 They just do.

01:12 I get treated differently if I'm 200 plus pounds

01:15 versus under 200 pounds.

01:17 Despite Cindy's comments,

01:18 she's still apparently friendly with Oprah,

01:20 appearing on her show 10 times

01:22 and as a guest on Oprah's Masterclass.

01:25 The supermodel even attended

01:26 Oprah's star-studded 69th birthday.

01:30 I just wanna be a real person.

01:32 At the height of her fame,

01:33 Cindy was candid with ET about the pressure of modeling.

01:36 I don't have to be the sexiest person

01:38 in the room all the time,

01:38 nor do I have to be the, you know, whatever.

01:41 I just wanna be who I am.

01:43 Cindy, Naomi, Christy Turlington, and Linda Evangelista

01:46 all appear in the Supermodels,

01:48 Apple TV+'s four-part docu-series that dropped today.

01:52 As long as I'm gonna live, it's okay.

01:55 Linda, who settled a disputed lawsuit with Cool Sculpting,

01:58 claimed the procedure left her permanently disfigured.

02:01 It's been years since I worked

02:05 and years of hiding.

02:08 Had someone told me, "You're going to grow fat,

02:11 "hard fat that we can't remove,"

02:14 I would never have taken the risk.

02:16 My heart is broken.

02:18 I loved my job.
