Naomi Campbell is a fighter. Not in the up-by-your-bootstraps-survivor sense, but in the I-will-beat-anyone-that-works-for-me sense.
A man hired to drive Campbell told police that she assaulted him from the back seat of a luxury SUV on Tuesday, before hopping out and running away, but the supermodel likely won't face criminal charges.
Just three years ago, Campbell completed five days of community service, including cleaning toilets and garbage duty at Manhattan District 3 Garage at Pier 36 on the Hudson.
She was sentenced to the dirty duty after pleading guilty to hitting former maid Ana Scolavino in the back of the head with a telephone, because a pair of her jeans had disappeared.
In this driver case, authorities said no arrests were anticipated, because no one witnessed what took place between her and the driver.
The driver, who also drives Campbell's boyfriend, decided not to pursue the matter criminally. It's unclear if he would pursue it in civil court, though.
Earlier Tuesday, the man told police Campbell hit him from behind and his head struck the steering wheel of the black Cadillac Escalade, causing bruising under his right eye. He pulled over in midtown Manhattan and got out to speak to a traffic agent, who alerted police.
Campbell was not at the scene when officers arrived, police said.
Campbell did not speak to police, but her assistant went to the station house where the driver gave his account. A spokesman for Campbell, who has previously pleaded guilty to assaulting people hired to work for her, said she would cooperate with police.
The 27-year-old driver, apparently hired just for the day, told police he picked Campbell up at a Manhattan hotel and was taking her to Astoria Studios, a TV and film studio complex in New York, according to the Associated Press.
In 2008, she pleaded guilty in a case in which prosecutors said she cursed, kicked and spat at police in a rage over a missing piece of luggage at Heathrow airport; she was sentenced to 200 hours of community service.
In 2000, Campbell pleaded guilty in Toronto to an assault charge for beating an assistant who said the model whacked her on the head with a phone.
A few of Campbell's former aides and maids have sued her, accusing her of violent outbursts; some cases have been settled on undisclosed terms.
The question here isn't why she continues on with the rages or whether she'll get prosecuted. The question is why in the world has no one beat her ass? That's all.

Since it's obvious the law won't lock her up (they didnt hesitate to jail Foxy Brown for assault though),the next best thing would be for her to get an ole-fashioned beat down by the right person.
Then they should snatch off her wig & hang it somewhere so everyone can see how this DIVA truly looks without someonelse's hair on her head. She is bald all the way back to her ears!!

I don't know about being bald back to the ear but I saw her hair one time and it is very short. With all the money she supposely has you would think she would take better care of her real hair. Just b/c you wear a weave that doesn't mean you have to be bald.

Naomi is too fine to be assualting people, but I do think she might have to spead some time in jail to come to her senses. Wrestling with Big Bertha over some roman noodles in the slammer might do her some good.

Naomi Campbell is nothing but a fool. It's obvious she has mental illness and is crazy as a coo coo nut. Her butt needs to be put behind bars where she is surrounded by some serious coo coo nuts who will show her what a beat down is all about. Naomi you fool, grow up cause one day you will go coo coo puffs on the wrong person and you will get back everything you have done to others you crazy nut!!!--- That's right I said it now come to the hood where I live you fool and start something and I guarantee you that by the time Chaniqua, Shauntica, TikaBoo, and Crawdash finish with you, you will think twice before attacking someone else you crazy dumb mental illness bald-headed fool!!!-- that's right I said it!!!

LOL! I really feel for Naomi. It's hard out there for Sista! Everyone wants a piece of you. Like the case with the assistant that got hit with the phone, I can see how Naomi, felt compelled to smack her if her jean just got up and walked off! Who the heck took it? People think if you are rich & famous, you can't feel! like feel taken, or taken for a fool. That sh!t is annoying!
Smack the sh!t out of them gurl!
