Naomi Campbell on ABC's The View (2010)

Naomi Campbell's 2010 The View interview is the most defensive on this list, with her hostile stonewalling when asked about a 'blood diamond' from Charles Taylor. She gave only monosyllabic answers for over 12 minutes, including an 86-second pause after the first question—longer than the average response time for any other item. This stonewalling is even more evasive than #8 Megan Fox's silence on exploitation, as Campbell's refusal to engage set a record for longest dead air by 40 seconds.
