Naomi Scott is an avid Instagrammer. She often publishes photos from the set, vacation shots, and videos of her vocals. As followers have noticed, she never shows herself in a bathing suit, undressed or in underwear. Her page contains discreet photographs, which speaks of her Christian beliefs.
Movies
In 2006, the girl was invited to play a small role in the comedy series “Life Bites.” Then Naomi moved into the category of “Disney Channel princesses”, starring in the musical “Lemonade Mouth” about teenagers who created their own group. The young actress’s vocal talent came in handy. The song Breakthrough, featured in the film, entered the Billboard 100 chart.
In 2010, Steven Spielberg gave Scott the role of the daughter of the main characters in the TV series Terra Nova. The sci-fi film was about humanity on the verge of an environmental disaster. People managed to find a portal to the past, which means that there is a chance to correct mistakes and change history.
Naomi made her feature film debut as the daughter of Antonio Banderas' character in the drama 33. The plot centers on the events that occurred in Chile in 2010. Then, as a result of a collapse, the miners found themselves immured underground for 2 months.

The fantastic action film “The Martian” received as much criticism as awards. Unfortunately, the artist’s name does not appear in the credits of the project, which was awarded a Golden Globe and nominated for seven Oscars. The director with the same name refused her heroine. Naomi is not offended, because she didn’t look her best at the time and was very nervous, realizing that she was working with a star.
By the way, American colleague Adam Scott is not the husband of a British woman, but another namesake. His wife, also Naomi, was born Sablan.
Scott's next major role was in the superhero action film Power Rangers. The film is based on a popular 90s series based on Japanese comics.

Naomi Scott and Edward Enninful
In 2016, information appeared that the Walt Disney company was planning to film the animated film “Aladdin” and entrusted the work to Guy Ritchie. The new project was announced as a musical film.
Naomi, who was cast in the role of Jasmine, received a lot of criticism. Netizens thought she was too “white.” The film takes place in the country of Agrabah, a fictional state in the Middle East, so many expected to see an Arab woman, not an Indian woman.
The young and little-known actor Mena Massoud appeared as Aladdin, and Will Smith played the Genie. Marwan Kenzari, known for his role in the film “Murder on the Orient Express,” played the role of the villain Jafar.

Naomi Scott, Elizabeth Banks, Ella Balinska and Kristen Stewart
In the same year, the actress was casting for the role of the partner of the young Han Solo. Her competitors were Tessa Thompson, who starred in the film “Creed: The Rocky Legacy,” and Zoe Kravitz, known for the film “Mad Max” and the TV series “Big Little Lies.” But Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke won this competition.
Soon, Avengers director Joss Whedon announced plans to film Batgirl. And in the summer, the Screen Rant portal published a list of contenders for the main role. Naomi Scott also got there. Emma Roberts, Olivia Cooke, Elle Fanning and Bella Thorne competed for the honor of being called the daughter of the Gotham Police Commissioner. The championship was given to Katherine Langford.
However, at the beginning of 2018, Whedon left the set by mutual agreement with Disney, and so far the fate of the new superwoman is unknown.
Fans are shocked by the choice of actress for the role of Jasmine in the movie “Aladdin”
Netizens were shocked by the choice of the actress for the role of Princess Jasmine in the upcoming film “Aladdin” from Disney. According to fans, Naomi Scott is completely unsuitable for the role, not only because of her origin, but also because of the color of her skin.
Naomi Scott is half Indian and half British by origin, and her skin color is noticeably lighter than that of the heroine of the original Aladdin animated series, to which all fans of the franchise are accustomed. In addition, all the characters in the original are Arabs. An Egyptian-born actor named Mena Masud was chosen to play Aladdin, and Will Smith will play the role of the Genie.
All these Arab actresses on the planet and they cast half-white, half-Indian Naomi Scott as Jasmine. Indian isn't middle-eastern, Hollywood.
— Sarah Khatami (@SarahKhatami) July 15, 2020
“There are so many Arab actresses in the world, and they cast a half-white, half-Indian girl, Naomi Scott, to play Jasmine. Indian doesn't mean Middle Eastern, Hollywood."
/ I really wanna use Naomi Scott as an FC but she doesn't fit this character at all and that makes me sad

“I really want to get used to Naomi Scott, but she doesn’t suit the role at all and it makes me sad.”
This is Naomi Scott. She is Indian, and white. This is Jasmine, she is middle eastern. And not white. #Aladdin pic.twitter.com/MTvfQvyaMt

“This is Jasmine, she's from the Middle East. And not white."
I love Naomi Scott but couldn't they find someone middle eastern to play jasmine. Nevertheless someone that LOOKS like jasmine. #alladin

“I love Naomi Scott, but couldn't they have found someone better to play Jasmine? Someone who looks LIKE Jasmine."
UHM SO #ALLADIN IS GONNA BE MENA MASSOUD AND #JASMINE IS NAOMI SCOTT. NAOMI IS HALF GUJARATI HALF WHITE SO HELL YES LET'S GET IT #Gujjupride
— Rohan Patel (@patroh16) July 15, 2020
“So, Aladdin will be Mena Massoud, and Jasmine will be played by Naomi Scott. Naomi is half Gujarati, half white. Yes, let's do that."
DO WE HATE THE ALLADIN MOVIE FOR NAOMI SCOTT OR DO WE LOVE THE ALLADIN MOVIE FOR NAOMI SCOTT?!
— mike (@mikeandvikes) July 16, 2020
“Do we love the movie for Naomi Scott or do we hate the movie for Naomi Scott?”
I love Naomi Scott, but a half-Indian woman is not the answer to Jasmine.#Aladdin is an ARAB tale, based on ARAB culture, and ARAB history
— Treetachi (@LoneTempest) July 15, 2020
“I love Naomi Scott, but being half Indian is not the answer to Jasmine. It's an Arabic tale, based on Arabic culture and Arabic history."
HOWS THE OPENING SONG LITERALLY SAY “ARABIAN NIGHTS” AND YALL GONNA CAST AN INDIAN ACTRESS FOR JASMINE. IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE @Disney
— raya (@bizoephillips) July 15, 2020
“The opening song is all about the Arabian Nights, but no, let's cast an Indian to play Jasmine. This makes no sense."
According to fans, even the title song, which talks about the Arabian Nights, indicates a discrepancy in casting. Up to this point, fans have been completely satisfied with the casting, including the appearance and background of actors Will Smith and Mena Massoud. However, the role of Naomi Scott caused an extremely negative reaction.
The Aladdin film became known in October 2020, when Guy Ritchie was named as the director. However, his latest film, The Legend of King Arthur, failed at the box office despite extremely positive reviews from audiences and critics. It also became known that several additional scenes had to be removed from the film and production costs had to be reduced.
Naomi Scott now
Elizabeth Banks, Naomi's partner in Power Rangers, presented her directorial work in 2019 - the blockbuster Charlie's Angels. In addition to Scott, the main roles in the reboot of the franchise were played by Ella Balinska and Kristen Stewart. A trio of super agents save the world from a certain gadget that controls the supply of electricity.
The creators positioned the film as a feminist, a kind of battle of the sexes, and this ended up being a bad joke. According to critics, ““angels” are just girl-friends, in whose minds there are only exploits that they accomplish without a hitch.” The heroines lack depth, mystery and simple humanity.

Naomi Scott in 2020
There were no crowds of spectators in cinemas; on the first weekend of release the film grossed $9 million, which is ridiculous money by Hollywood standards. Banks hastened to say that men were to blame for the failure because they did not accept films about brave and independent women.
Scott also tried her hand at directing - she produced and directed the short film Forget You based on her own script. The actress is currently busy dubbing Dacre Montgomery's documentary drama In Vitro.
Princess Jasmine from Aladdin: who is Naomi Scott
British actress and singer Naomi Scott is famous, but at the end of May she will wake up very famous. Tomorrow the musical fairy tale “Aladdin” will be released, where she played Princess Jasmine.

Naomi Scott as Princess Jasmine
In life, Naomi is not a real princess in the canonical fairy-tale sense: the girl does not wear dresses, and when the final casting required her to wear a dress, she hastily ran to the store... so that she would never wear this outfit again. As a child, she enthusiastically watched not “Cinderella”, but “Bend It Like Beckham” and played not with dolls, but with football. What is symbolic: just in June, Naomi will celebrate her fifth wedding anniversary with football player Jordan Spence.
Already at the age of eleven she clearly understood that she wanted to become a singer and knew how to achieve this. The vocal and smart girl was offered roles in advertising and TV series. True, with varying degrees of success, and the most offensive thing was when her episode was cut from “The Martian.”

But recognition comes to those who are patient, Naomi, the pastor’s daughter, knows: after “Aladdin”, this fall we will have a new “Charlie’s Angels”, where Scott has one of the main roles. Jasmine, played by Naomi, is strong, brave and willful, just like the actress herself. Yes, she knows how to stand up for herself, as her grandmother, mother and eight aunts, refugees from Indian Gujarat, once had to do. Now they are doing well and will get even better!
Fashionable makeup in the style of Naomi Scott
Naomi's makeup, which she wore on the red carpet at the Louis Vuitton show at Paris Fashion Week, will be on trend this summer. And it's easy to repeat.
Feel Strong mascara, Yves Rocher. Parisian Style Edition Eyeshadow Palette, Artistry Studio™. Cream eyeshadow Ombre Interdite, Givenchy. Brow Pomade, GOSH. Mascara Le Mascara Graphique, Eisenberg Paris
Orange-coral shades are among the favorites this summer. With them, brown eyes seem even darker and deeper, almost black, while gray and blue eyes appear more contrasting, colder and brighter. Golden accents in the corners of the eyes will add a playful sparkle to the look. With such shades of shadows, mascara should be black or dark brown so that the eyelashes do not get lost against the background of the eyelids. Another fashionable option is to use blue or turquoise mascara on the lower lashes and black on the upper lashes.
Set of makeup brushes Stay Matte & Beautiful, Ecotools. Tinted self-tanning mousse Tan in a Tube, Artdeco. Powder balls Météorites Perles de Satin, Guerlain. CHANEL Duo Bronze et Lumière face palette, Medium range, CHANEL. Toning fluid Magica bb + detox, Collistar. Sheer Dimensions™ Tender Pearl Powder, Mary Kay®
Bright shadows always require clearly defined eyebrows, then the look will be expressive and the image will be complete. Foundation with caring functions and bronzing powder will help out those who, like Naomi, work a lot and sleep little: they give the face a fresh look.
In summer, lips need both hydration and protection from the sun. It's good if the shine comes with SPF. Naomi uses translucent pink and beige shades. Their beauty is that precise application is not required and you can apply makeup on the run.
