She flashed a glimpse of her long toned pins and styled her dark tresses into an extra long braid that tumbled down past her shoulders.

Naomi beamed as she took her moment in the spotlight and posed alongside co-star Stanley Tucci, 62, who plays record producer Clive Davis in the movie.

‘But they just said to me: “look – you just concentrate on her essence and we’ll sort everything else out”‘. 

Naomi, who has a Madonna-esque gap between her two front teeth, added: ‘When I was getting the costume put on I was like “But I’ve got a gap!”

‘In preparation time for the role I was just like “I’m going to close my gap permanently.

‘Luckily Sony and my team and the producers were just like “you’re insane, you’re not doing that, we’ll just give you fake ones” and I was like oh ok. That works too…’
