Naomi Campbell assaults police officer; arrested at Heathrow

Naomi Campbell assaults police officer; arrested at Heathrow
It looks like all those anger management classes, community service, and postponed jail time didn’t do a whole lot of good in curbing Naomi Campbell’s crazy temper. Back in the day, it was mere assistants that had to fear the model’s wrath. Heaven forbid a pair of jeans goes missing, you should expect a Blackberry upside the head in two seconds flat. But it seemed like the general population was probably safe. Turns out, that’s not the case, as Miss Campbell was arrested today after she was taken off a British Airlines flight to Los Angeles. It seems the fashion maven had not one, not two, but three carry-on bags, and one went missing. She threw an absolute fit and was removed from the flight. But of course things didn’t end there, as Campbell continued ranting and raving in the British Airlines first class lounge. Police were called, and a fracas ensued. Campbell was arrested for assaulting a police officer, supposedly by spitting on him. What class.

TMZ has learned Naomi Campbell has been arrested at Heathrow Airport after she allegedly assaulted a police officer. Why? Bitch lost her bag!!

Campbell was pulled off a British Airlines flight to L.A. this morning after reportedly causing a huge stink when she says one of her — count ‘em — three carry-on bags was missing. The Sun says after she was yanked off the plane, cops had to be called because the supermodel was told she was unfit to fly. The anger management class superstar was hauled away “ranting and raving” from BA’s first class lounge after allegedly assaulting an officer. Where’s an assistant when you need one?!

Witnesses say they heard the model scream “get off me, leave me alone” as she was taken to the Heathrow police station. Hide your Blackberries!

Sky News reported that Campbell spit on a police officer. She is one of those people that you actually want bad things to happen to. I often sit at my desk, dreaming of small, petty problems that could befall Naomi Campbell and cause her to completely snap. Who assaults a police officer over a lost bag? Who beats an assistant over jeans? Let’s be real, how many pairs of jeans do we really think Naomi Campbell actually owns? Not that it’s any big surprise, but clearly anger management doesn’t do much for those that really need it. There are just some people who walk through life with a feeling of entitlement, and they rage at any and everyone when the rest of us don’t understand just how much better they are. Really, I’m sure Naomi will explain that it was the airline’s fault, the cop’s fault… pretty much everyone’s fault but her own. Let’s wait for a perfectly written statement of remorse from her publicist tomorrow.

Here’s some old shots from a photo shoot of Naomi looking all sorry for herself.
