Moss Named Model of the Year
Supermodel Kate Moss was named Model of the Year at the British Fashion Awards in London last night--just a year after her alleged cocaine scandal.
The English beauty lost several high-profile modeling jobs last year after British newspaper the Daily Mirror published images which showed her snorting cocaine in a London recording studio.
Moss checked into an Arizona rehabilitation clinic following the revelations.
At the star-studded ceremony at the Victoria & Albert Museum, the awards panel praised Moss as "a fashion icon and without doubt one of the most prolific models in the industry. She has now been modeling for over 15 years and remains at the top of her game."
Other winners on the night included Vivienne Westwood for Red Carpet Designer and Giles Deacon for Designer of the Year.

Snoop Dogg Charged with Felony Weapons Possession
Rapper Snoop Dogg has been formally charged with one felony count of knowingly possessing a dangerous weapon by California authorities. The “Gin and Juice” star, real name Calvin Broadus, was arrested on Sept. 27 at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, after allegedly trying to board a plane while carrying a 21-inch collapsible police baton in a computer case.
If convicted, he faces a potential maximum of three years in a state penitentiary. Bail was set at $150,000.
On Oct. 26, he was arrested a second time at Burbank, California's Bob Hope Airport on suspicion of possessing marijuana and a handgun, according to police.
After being taken into custody, the rapper was freed on $35,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in Los Angeles Superior Court on Dec. 12 to be arraigned.
The star also had another airport incident at London's Heathrow in April, where Snoop Dogg and several members of his entourage were arrested after an altercation in the business class lounge, which they apparently did not have permission to use.

Oops! Spears Names Baby Jayden, Not Sutton
The September 12 birth certificate, filed with Los Angeles officials this week, was the latest twist in the rumor and secrecy that marked the arrival of the once publicity-hungry pop star's second baby.
Not only was the birth at a Los Angeles hospital never officially announced by Spears or her husband Kevin Federline, but sources close to the couple led the world's media to believe that the boy had been named Sutton Pierce.
For weeks beforehand, the tabloid media was sure the former teen pop sensation was expecting a girl. Celebrity magazines had Spears stocking up on pink baby clothes and reported she planned to name the child Jamilyn after her younger sister Jamie and her mother Lynne.
But the official birth certificate records that Jayden James Federline was born September 12 at Cedars Sinai hospital in Los Angeles. Jayden, who at six weeks has yet to make his public picture debut, was born two days before the first birthday of Spears' first son, Sean Preston.
Spears, who put her phenomenal recording career on hold after marrying Federline in September 2004, announced her second pregnancy on a late night TV chat show and posed nude for Harper's Bazaar when she was six months pregnant.
