Being a model who earned some good cash (she didnt earn that much btw) DOES NOT make you a supermodel.

super model refers to a highly-paid fashion model who usually has a worldwide reputation and often a background in haute couture and commercial modeling

She never did haute couture, she never had a worldwide reputation. She was a highly paid commercial model famous basically for getting her baps out on a billboard ad for underwear.
Look it up love...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermodel
She appears nowhere on that page, and many models are listed. Some schools of thought say there were only ever around 10 proper super models and sophie anderton doesnt even close to the top 100 let alone top 10.
When she name dropped models then said 'but I dont really speak to them much' err no its cause they probably have no idea who you are. She was a lingerie model
Quote:
She became famous in 1996 after appearing in the Gossard Glossies "Girl in the grass" national advertising campaign shot by Herb Ritts, with the strapline "Who said a woman couldn't get pleasure from something soft?"

Was her high point, then she became addicted, is described on her own wiki page as an it-girl NOT a supermodel. In latter years yeah well...

In 2006, she was diagnosed and treated for bipolar disorder[8] and made a minor return to modelling as the frontperson for that year's National Egg Awareness Campaign

Call me silly but I cant see Naomi Campbell modelling for national egg awareness.
