    After eight years, Roberto Cavalli has cleared his name with the Italian authorities for tax fraud charges. The designer has been in and out of the courtroom for after the initial 2002 accusation that he remodeled his uber-luxurious Tuscan villa and charged the costs to his company. Despite two prison sentences (neither of which he served) Cavalli can happily lounge in his villa as a free man. [WWD]

    “It can feel lonely. It can feel like you’re around a thousand people but you’re around no one at the same time,” said Naomi Campbell when Oprah prodded her about her ongoing violent streak on yesterday’s show. “There are times where I don’t want to walk on a red carpet but I have to because I’m contracted to. It’s like we don’t have feelings, but we are — we’re humans, but it’s — I don’t know.” Someone pass her a tissue. [The Cut]
