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.
