Naomi Campbell should be locked up in a rubber room until further notice- either that, or sent into the mountains of Afghanistan to scare terrorists. The irrelevant British model was arrested in April at Heathrow airport after she threw a fit when her bags wound up lost. She got physical with a security officer and was taken into custody. No word on whether her cell phone was confiscated as a weapon of mass destruction. She was officially charged this morning with assaulting two police officers for that incident and must report to court on June 20 to face charges.
Naomi Campbell has been charged with assaulting a police officer at London’s Heathrow Airport, her lawyer told BBC News Thursday.
She has also been charged with one count of disorderly conduct and one count of using threatening, abusive words or behavior towards cabin crew.
The model, 38, was arrested in April aboard a British Airways flight when she threw a fit after her carry-on bags came up missing.
“Miss Campbell is bitterly disappointed that the prosecutors have advised her she is to be prosecuted for various offences,” her lawyer said in a statement after she answered bail at a London police station Thursday.
“She respects that decision and she hopes this matter is dealt with expeditiously,” he said.
She is due in court June 20.
Last year, Campbell was ordered to spend a week mopping floors at a NYC warehouse for assaulting her maid with a cell phone.
What is this bitch’s problem? Look, we all know how much flying sucks. There’s the nightmare that is airport security, the endless flight delays, and the knowledge that your luggage is probably headed to Fiji while you are in Cleveland. But that doesn’t justify acting like a stark-raving lunatic and putting your hands on a cop! What’s so special about her that she gets to act like this? I’m glad she got charged – but I’d like to see her get in a lot more trouble this time. Someone needs to commit this hag before she really hurts someone. Just tell her that the padded room is a trendy new nightclub and the straightjacket is from the new Calvin Klein summer collection. Then throw away the key.
Note by Celebitchy: Naomi’s assault charges carries “a maximum sentence of six months in prison and/or a fine of up to $10,000,” according to the Associated Press. Hopefully the judge will take her prior record into consideration and throw the book at her – hard.
Naomi Campbell is shown at Cannes on 5/21/08, thanks to WENN.
Good, I hope she gets the book thrown at her. She has been a menace to society long enough and she has made a mockery out of the U.S and Bristish justice systems. In prior acts of ignorance, she has skated with a slap on the wrist and a slew of photo ops. I have no idea why she is even still relavant? All of the other “Super Models” from the late 80’s and 90’s have retired with some dignity and class. When are people going to stop pandering to this nasty, ill behave beast?
If there is any justice, she will serve some time for her latest actions and maybe, just maybe, she might rethink the kind of person she is and what she is portaying out there to other YOUNG and aspiring models. 👿
“The irrelevant British model…”
*HA!* Did you really mean than Celebitchy? If not, that’s the most brilliant typo 😀
She is not 38. She was several years older than me about 10 years ago when she was fooling around with Leonardo Dicaprio. More like 42.
In any event, the spoiled brat should be thrown in the klink for a day or two with hardened criminals. It’s the only way she’ll learn as community service obviously doesn’t work.
I suspect she’s a man.
When she says she’s “bitterly disappointed” about the authorities’ decision, what she means is that she expects to be treated differently to you or I. She expects a blind eye to be turned to her behaviour, or concessions made, because of her fame.
I hope whoever sits on the judicial bench on 20th June has the guts not to be blinded by celebrity status and to send her down, just like you or I would be if we behaved like mad-ass aggressive bitches in public.
Maybe she has too much testosterone??
Just goes to show that incredible beauty, a successful career and plenty of money still can’t make you happy.
You can take the girl out of the ghetto but you can’t take the ghetto out of the girl….
She was fooling around with Leonardo DiCaprio several years ago? If that’s true, she is a pedophile as well! This bitch does need hard time. She’s washed up and to be honest, she decreases the celebrity of the lizards in her recent water commercial by appearing with them. I hope they can find more acting gigs after working with her-if they even survived the shoot. She probably stomped them with her size 15 pump when the director yelled “cut”.
Bring on the prison garb !! I know she will look lovely in stripes or an orange jumpsuit. Please Judge, give her time in the big house. Do it for us little people.
MsMichelle 31, it was not too long after the movie Titanic when Leo first became a mega star. They were reported being seen getting it on in a pool somewhere and later she said he wasn’t that good. Typical diva behavior I guess.
Karma’s a bitch..
This is very hot information. I think I’ll share it on Digg.
