After Elsa Majimbo opened up about her rift with American supermodel Naomi Campbell, social media rallied in support of her.
In a video circulating on social media, the internet sensation accused Naomi of putting an end to her career.
According to her, the ordeal began in 2020 when Naomi invited her to join them on a vacation. According to Elsa, during her vacation Naomi suggested they film a documentary about life in Kenya.
“And I thought, oh, that's great. She introduced me to some people in Hollywood. So some of the people she was on vacation with, after the vacation They were all scheduled to come to Nairobi. They were staying at the Kempinski Hotel.
“So, after everything was over, I went to see Kempinski. I was talking to one of them and one of them said, oh, how did you meet Naomi? And I was like, oh, no. I texted her on Instagram and she told us like, oh yeah, she created you, she built you, she created your career.”

It was all downhill from there.
Elsa said she told them it wasn't true. Fast forward to March 2022, she said, and she received a call from Naomi.
“She was like, 'Elsa, you do that so often!'” Oh, I'm so shocked, I don't know what's going on… The previous year, I was so excited about my life, bullying, growing up, and comedy. I was making a documentary about how I fell in love.
“The film was going to premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival and someone from Tribeca asked Naomi if she would come. I thought it was a movie about that.”
She said she tried to explain to Naomi that it wasn't the documentary she suggested while on vacation, but Naomi threatened legal action despite Elsa's attempts to clarify.
“I tried to explain it to her, and she said, 'I'm going to sue for the rights to this movie, and you know I'm going to win, right?' Like, I'll call you tomorrow. I was supposed to call her the next day, but it was a 22 hour flight and there was no phone in Ethiopia.
“So, I called her the next day and she said she was supposed to call me yesterday but she didn't call me…I also have the Met Gala and this is the last time I'm going to talk to you. Have a nice life. Then she hung up… A few months after that, things started getting really bad for me…”
