Naomi Campbell Claims Air Rage Started From Racist Remark

Photo found on Wikipedia

Supermodel, Naomi Campbell was sentenced to 200 hours of community service along with some fines on Friday, June 20, 2008 for the air rage incident. Campbell assaulted two police officers and shouted some naughty words at British Airways crewmembers back in April. She got what she deserves.

Now Campbell is saying that the incident started when one of the flight crewmembers called her a "Golliwog supermodel." According to Wikipedia, the term refers to a doll with a black face. According to Rueters, during her court case, Campbell and her lawyers did not mention the racism claims.

Why do I have the feeling that she is trying to weasel out of her community service? Just pay the fines, do your service to the community, and move on!
