Are Chavez and Naomi Campbell an Item?

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and supermodel turned phone-thrower Naomi Campbell are reportedly in love. Spanish newspaper 20 Minutos -- a sometimes less-than-credible source -- has been reporting on this rumor for days now, and I decided to ignore it until I saw it in none other than People en EspaƱol. This chisme has gone mainstream. A web site called World Entertainment News has picked up the story too:
Supermodel Naomi Campbell is dating Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, according to odd newspaper reports in the South American country.Anyone want to remind WTF she's doing in Venezuela in the first place? That part of it still isn't clear to me. Since when is she a political correspondent? If anything the presence of a fashion model might serve to help him get over his obsession with red shirts.
The British stunner recently travelled to Caracas to interview Chavez for British magazine GQ - and reporters there claim the pair are smitten with each other and have been courting for two months.
Respected El Universal journalist Nelson Bocaranda claims 53-year-old Chavez fell "head-over-heels" in love with Campbell after their interview, in which he flirted and invited the 37-year-old to "touch my muscles".The catwalk queen is quoted in El Universal, describing Chavez as "not a gorilla, he is more a bull".
Anybody out there believe this rumor? Does Huguito have a softer side? Is he attempting to debunk previous (stupid) rumors about his personal life?
