Gwen vs. Naomi |

With an all-star guest list for her debut fashion show, you'd think Gwen Stefani would be over the moon about the success of her clothing line, L.A.M.B. Attendees like Diddy, Scott Weiland, Faith Hill, Lenny Kravitz, Ashanti and Kelly Osbourne, made the audience of Stefani's catwalk show on Friday seem more like the MTV Video Music Awards than a stuffy event suitable for the pages of Vogue. And hip young Hollywood starlets like Nicky Hilton, Bijou Philips and Alexis Bledel also caught the show at NYC's Roseland Ballroom. But Gwen wasn't as happy as she should have been. Page Six claims she was furious that one of her models - Naomi Campbell - had an opposing event that began just one hour after hers. A source told the gossip column, "Gwen wanted the biggest blowout show of Fashion Week, and arranged her show outside the tents to ensure that she would get the very last slot of the week. But then Naomi put together the Fashion for Relief charity show for Hurricane Katrina victims." Campbell's fete stole many of Gwen's potential gawkers, such as Nicole Richie and Beyonce Knowles. "Almost everyone is participating [in Naomi's show] but L.A.M.B., and Gwen is said to be very, very angry," the source said. Still Gwen did her best to show no hard feelings for Campbell. The singer actually showed up at her benefit later in the night. Gwen must know that in a dog eat dog world like fashion, you don't need a pitbull like Naomi Campbell as your enemy.
