Naomi Campbell is moved to tears as she joins the UN Women for Peace's March In March in New York

Naomi Campbell was one of many women who came together on Friday as part of the UN Women for Peace's March In March To End Violence Against Women.
The supermodel threw on a charity bib, and joined Gossip Girl’s Kelly Rutherford and fellow actress Kim Cattrall to support and speak at the event in New York.
But clearly the model was affected by the show of unity and inspiring words, as she was moved to tears outside the United Nations building.

Campbell took time out from promoting The Face, to throw her support behind the International Woman’s day cause which officially takes place on Saturday March 8th.
Naomi, 41, had returned to wearing her straight black wig with a fringe rather than the afro she has been sporting for the last few days.
She received praise for her emotional speech, and thanked them for it on Twitter: ‘thank you was an honor to be #unwomenforpeace (sic)’.
