Streatham’s own Naomi Campbell has dismissed reports she had a bust-up with fellow British supermodel Cara Delevingne at Paris Fashion Week.

The 44-year-old is famed for her hot temper but says reports there was a confrontation with Delevingne at a party on Sunday are “completely untrue”.

The New York Post’s Page Six claimed there was a scrap between the pair after they fell out over whether Rihanna has been disrespected. A source allegedly told Page Six: “Naomi accused Cara of disrespecting Rihanna and started yelling before Naomi pushed Cara, who pushed back. Cara pulled Naomi’s weave, but it didn’t come off.”

Naomi, Cara and Rihanna have been spotted together at events for Paris Fashion Week. But the witness said, “Naomi was angry because she felt Cara had said something negative about Rihanna.”

A separate source said Naomi, 44, unexpectedly started ranting at Cara, 22, at the glamorous bash, with guests including Bianca Brandolini and Lauren Santo Domingo. The source said, “It was a noisy and packed party. Naomi was saying all these nonsensical things, she was ranting. There was a messy pushing match. Cara didn’t understand because there’s no problem between her and Rihanna. Cara didn’t want to be involved and was telling Naomi, ‘Get away from me!’ ”

Another source at the event said Naomi had been chatting with Dakota Fanning, who was at a table with models including Cara and Lily Donaldson. The source said, “Naomi didn’t do anything wrong. We are talking about a very tiny club in Paris with a very busy table — if someone pushes someone, it’s because there is no space.”

Despite the supermodel tussle, Naomi later went partying at Up & Down’s pop-up at Raspoutine, where a spy said, “Everyone was talking about the drama with Cara, but Naomi just smiled angelically.”

But on Tuesday, Campbell took to Twitter to dismiss the allegations, saying: “Don’t know where this story has come from about @Caradelevingne and I fighting! It is completely untrue, ignore the rumours XN.”

Delevingne, 22, retweeted the message, showing there were no hard feelings between the pair.
