Naomi Campbell leaves court after allegedly hitting maid with crystal-encrusted Blackberry.

 

Smiling for the cameras, Naomi Campbell glided along a sidewalk shortly after allegedly bashing a crystal-encrusted BlackBerry against the head of her housekeeper.

 

"You f------ b----!" the cantankerous catwalker shrieked yesterday inside her Park Ave. penthouse apartment, accusing her maid, Ana Scolavino, of stealing a pair of $200 Chip & Pepper jeans, sources said.

 

Raging, Campbell cracked the BlackBerry against her housekeeper's head at 8 a.m. - and then demanded her staff tell cops the 42-year-old maid had hurt herself falling, sources said.

 

But the sinewy supermodel's servant alerted officials at Lenox Hill Hospital, and soon cops arrived at Campbell's $3.5 million apartment to haul her away.

 

Campbell, 35, insisted she had no idea what cops were talking about and showed them a flip-phone, not the BlackBerry, as supposed proof, sources said.

 

But the cops cuffed her - disappointing an Oprah Winfrey camera crew waiting to film her for a cooking segment.

 

Ever the diva, Campbell hid the handcuffs under a white fur poncho. Sources said she also asked to ride in her own car to the police stationhouse and then paused as her minions begged cops to let them fix her bangs before she was escorted outside. The requests were denied.

 

"\[she\] told her people to lie, to say the maid tripped and hit her head," a police source said. "Her staff is afraid of her - afraid she'll go off on them and they'll lose her paycheck."

 

Campbell - who has a history of allegedly beating and head-butting her help - was questioned for hours at the Manhattan North Precinct stationhouse.

 

Flanked by cops, she emerged at 4 p.m. in the same flowing poncho, black suede boots, dark sunglasses and baseball cap.

 

The perp-walk-turned-runway-shoot was captured by more than 100 photographers who had gathered to see the former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model.

 

A source said the BlackBerry used in the attack was encased in a Swarovski crystal holder that featured several baubles. The BlackBerry was not recovered.

 

Campbell called the allegation that she attacked her housekeeper "completely untrue." "She is sadly mistaken if she thinks she can extract money from me by concocting lies by recycling old stories," the supermodel said in a statement. "I have asked my lawyer to look into filing both theft and extortion charges against her."

 

Campbell said she had questioned the housekeeper about missing items and fired her "for that and her erratic behavior."

Campbell was charged with assault and could face up to seven years in prison if convicted. During a brief court appearance last night, a judge denied the prosecution's request for $3,500 bail.

 

Judge Richard Weinberg issued an order of protection against Campbell and released her on her own recognizance. He also allowed her to keep her passport so she could leave today on a scheduled charity trip to South Africa with Nelson Mandela.

 

"Surrendering her passport would not only be unfair to her but unfair to the children of South Africa," her lawyer, David Breitbart, said.

 

Scolavino, of Brooklyn, got four stitches to close a gash on her head. Meanwhile, Campbell's ex-assistant, Amie Castaldo, 33, scoffed at the model's denials - saying she was attacked by Campbell in 2004. "She abuses people," Castaldo said. "Somebody has to stop her."

The poor thing is just a victim, and everyone else has anger issues.

[princess 1,712]

So under the white sweater/pullover she is cuffed.

[Freckles 79]

So under the white sweater/pullover she is cuffed

I think that would be, "fur poncho" Isn't she one of the celebs who posed nude a few years ago for the PETA "Id rather go nude than wear fur" ads? That white poncho is no FAUX fur, that's for sure.

[Babloo328 0]

I hope she goes berserk in court and throws something at the judge. It would be hilarious...well...to me. I think if she had a film crew follow her around...that would be absolutely wonderful. There would be people getting scratched and beaten and random people falling on the catwalk...greatest tv show EVER?It'll never happen though.

Naomi Campbell and the bloody evidenceAccess uncovers the alleged assault victim’s bloody apron and sweater Supermodel Naomi Campbell is led into Manhattan criminal court Thursday, March 30 in New York. Campbell was charged with second-degree assault Thursday after allegedly bashing her housekeeper in the head with a phone in an altercation at her Park Avenue apartment, police said. MSNBC.com A day after Naomi Campbell was charged with assaulting her housekeeper, Ana Scolavino, the supermodel is saying it's all a case of “he said, she said.”Naomi was charged for allegedly throwing her cell phone at the housekeeper after accusing the woman of stealing clothes when she couldn't find a pair of jeans she wanted to wear on “Oprah,” prosecutors said.She was released on her own recognizance and allowed to keep her passport after her lawyer argued that her famous face would prevent her from fleeing.“She is probably the most recognized and prominent model in the world,” defense attorney David Breitbart told a judge Thursday in Manhattan Criminal Court. “There is no place she could go and not be recognized.”As for the evidence? Scolavino's attorney, Michael Block, showed Access a white apron and sweater covered in blood.Block, who came out from Scolavino's Brooklyn apartment to tell us his client's side of the story, claims Scolavino, 42, was wearing the clothes at the time she was assaulted.“Between 8 and 8:30 in the morning, Ms. Campbell was looking for a certain pair of jeans apparently and couldn't find them,” Block said. “She got very upset, and she wanted to know where the jeans were. The jeans were kept upstairs, and when my client attempted to explain this to her, Naomi got more and more angry”“Apparently, it was verbally said, ‘You're discharged’ but then said, ‘Please, help me find the jeans,’” Block said. “They went back upstairs to look for the jeans. She began screaming again. My client said, ‘Look, I can't take this further abuse and I'm leaving.’ And she started walking away and that's when she was struck at the bottom of the steps with the phone. We believe a telephone.”Naomi, wearing a white fur poncho, was arraigned on a charge of second-degree assault before Judge Richard Weinberg, who allowed Breitbart to enter a plea of not guilty on her behalf.In a statement issued late Thursday, Naomi called the allegation that she hit or injured her housekeeper “completely untrue.” She said she had questioned Scolavino about missing items since she started working for the model more than two months ago.“She is sadly mistaken if she thinks she can extract money from me by concocting lies by recycling old stories,” the supermodel said. “I have asked my lawyer to look into filing both theft and extortion charges against her.”The housekeeper was treated at a hospital for a cut that required four staples, said Assistant District Attorney Elina Kreditor, who asked the judge to set bail at $3,500 and to order Naomi, who is British, to surrender her passport.Breitbart called the request for $3,500 bail “an insult,” saying his client's Park Avenue apartment is worth more than $3 million and she earns "more than six figures on a regular basis."He said Naomi needed her passport for a trip to South Africa next week to visit Nelson Mandela. He asked the judge for orders to keep the housekeeper away from Naomi's apartment.The judge said Scolavino, would have to give up her key to the apartment and issued an order of protection against Naomi, telling her she could have no contact with the employee. He scheduled her next court appearance for June 27.The assault took place at about 8:30 a.m. inside Naomi's apartment, according to a criminal complaint. The housekeeper was hit in the back of the head and was treated at Lenox Hill Hospital, it said.A woman who answered the after-hours media relations number at the hospital said no one was available to comment and that she could not provide any information on Scolavino.Naomi was taken into custody shortly after police responded to the hospital to investigate the reported attack.Facing a familiar sea of cameras, Naomi exited a Manhattan police station shortly after 4 p.m. in a scene that was part runway, part perp walk. Scores of photographers, reporters and film crews had gathered to record her departure; she responded by flashing a quick smile.In a statement, Naomi's spokesman said the supermodel was not responsible for any assault.“We believe this is a case of retaliation, because Naomi had fired her housekeeper earlier this morning,” said the statement from J.R. Johnson. “We are confident the courts will see it the same way.”This was not the first time the volatile supermodel, 35, was accused of reaching out and touching someone with a phone. In 2003, the supermodel was sued by a former administrative assistant who said Campbell had thrown a phone at her during a tantrum two years earlier.In August 2004, in the same apartment, Naomi and her maid battled it out, with the worker claiming the supermodel slapped her across the face. Naomi accused maid Millicent Burton of instigating the fight.Naomi was discovered at age 15 and launched a career that landed her in magazines worldwide — including the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Naomi's high-profile lifestyle has included appearances in music videos by George Michael and Jay-Z and a close friendship with Mandela.The international modeling sensation has appeared in several films and dabbled in a musical career.The mercurial Naomi has a reputation for angry outbursts and abusive behavior. She pleaded guilty in Toronto to an assault charge for beating another assistant while making a film in Canada in 1998.She also battled a cocaine addiction before reportedly getting straight several years ago.

Keep it bloody quiet Coverup! sez att'y for maid to Naomi BY AUSTIN FENNER AND ADAM NICHOLSDAILY NEWS STAFF WRITERS Hot-tempered diva Naomi Campbell tried to cover up her alleged hissy fit by keeping her blood-soaked maid away from the hospital, the victim's lawyer charged yesterday. The super-rich catwalker tried to have Ana Scolavino treated by her personal doctor in an effort to keep the hired help from cops, according to attorney Michael Block."Naomi . . . tried to persuade her from going to the hospital or the police," he said."Naomi Campbell was obviously interested in her not going to the police or any place the police might be involved. . . . Ana realized she needed medical assistance and just wanted to get out of there."Campbell is facing assault charges after allegedly hurling a crystal-encrusted BlackBerry at Scolavino's head.The lawyer showed reporters Scolavino's work coat as he left her apartment yesterday, embroidered with Campbell's name and splattered with blood.Campbell, 35, was arrested Thursday and accused of attacking the housekeeper, 42, because she couldn't immediately find a pair of $200 jeans.Police said yesterday they recovered a cell phone from the model's Park Ave. apartment, though they couldn't confirm it was the device she allegedly threw. If convicted, Campbell could face up to seven years in prison.But Block said his client, who was still suffering blurred vision yesterday, had yet to decide if Campbell would also face a personal-injury lawsuit."We will meet next week and we will talk about it," he said."This is not an attempt to extort money from Naomi Campbell. It's not an attempt to get attention. It's an attempt, frankly, to get some medical attention."He said his client had been the victim of the short-fused diva's legendary verbal tirades several times during her three months on the job, but had not been physically attacked before Thursday.Campbell, who denied the assault, accused the housekeeper of stealing from her. But Block, whose client is 5-feet-4 and about 150 pounds, ridiculed claims she would take the statuesque model's clothes."Based on what I've seen of Naomi Campbell, in terms of her height and how thin she is . . . there's no way in the world my client would be wearing her clothes," he said.Campbell's lawyer David Breitbart said she was due to fly to South Africa last night to join former President Nelson Mandela in promoting a children's charity.Courthouse sources yesterday said Campbell's celebrity status helped her avoid a night in jail - gliding from arrest to arraignment in only eight hours.The average time this year has been 24.6 hours."The police don't want to be responsible if something happened to her while she was in custody," the source said.

Campbell 'Spat in Guard's Face' Fiery supermodel Naomi Campbell has been embroiled in another assault wrangle after allegations she spat in the face of a security guard at a U2 concert in New York late last year. The 35-year-old was a guest of her ex-fiance, U2 bassist Adam Clayton at the Madison Square Garden gig when she also allegedly verbally attacked the bouncer, who asked her to get off a barrier separating the band and audience. A police witness tells the New York Daily News, "Campbell told him he was a f**king a**hole and spat in his face." Another source claims Campbell screamed, "Don't you know who I am!". The source adds, "She acted like the spoiled prima donna you read about." No police report was ever filed. The troubled catwalk queen already faces a possible seven years in jail for allegedly throwing a mobile phone at her assistant Ana Scolavino's head last week. She denies the charge.

O'DONNELL CHALLENGES CAMPBELL TO FIGHTUS comedian ROSIE O'DONNELL has challenged supermodel NAOMI CAMPBELL to a fight, insisting the British beauty needs someone to "kick her a*s".O'Donnell was horrified when the catwalk queen was charged with assault in New York City last month (31MAR06) after she allegedly beat her assistant with a mobile telephone.And she plans to exert her own brand of justice on the fiery model. O'Donnell explains, "I just picture this cute little Mexican woman working saying, Excuse me Miss Campbell can I possibly get you... ' and Naomi going, 'Get away from me, bam bam bam!'"To make matters worse she had that jewel-encrusted cell phone. That's got to score with the diamonds."She looks like you could snap her in two but she's a tough-a*s, kick-a*s woman "I would actually like to fight her. I think for all the people that she'sbeaten up, I think she needs a big 200 pound lesbian to kick her a*s."

Dear Rosie:GREAT IDEA!!!She's an idiot and does need her ass kicked. When you're done with her, how about bring the GMD down to his knees (bummer, he might like that too much), then have a "Round-Up". Grab all the gays who are faking it, Seacrest, Cruise, Travolta, etc. and MAKE them admit to their sexuality. Hey, maybe this could be a reality show! I'd actually watch this one!! NAIL her Rosie!!!

The thing is, the shelf life of a model is not a long time, and Naomi's time is drastically running out now. Some of the more mellow older models will still be hired far into the future because they're easy to work with. If you have an aggressive temper you're going to be quietly passed over in favour of someone else. But there are much younger models coming up all the time snapping up contracts and pushing older ones noses out. Expect more tantrums and outbursts in the future. I think it goes with the territory. She'll probably still get work coming her way, but you could imagine people going in fear of her a lot more now she's actually drawn blood. Edited April 7, 2006 by GimmeSumSugar

NAOMI IS A PSYCHO MONSTER

 

Georgina Dickinson

 

THE maid battered by out-of-control supermodel Naomi Campbell today speaks for the first time in graphic detail about the chilling attack that could send the catwalk queen to prison.

 

Battered housekeeper Ana Scolavino—left sobbing and covered in blood from a head wound—believes 35-year-old Campbell's violent rages could kill.

 

"She is so crazy you never know when she will hit out. Anything can send her into a frenzy," says Ana, spilling the beans about her three months of hell in Campbell's weird world.

 

She tells how the screaming supermodel HUMILIATED her and other staff daily before the terrifying attack in a row over a pair of jeans. And she reveals how the star's OBSESSION with staying thin—guzzling bizarre juice cocktails fuelled her furies.

 

Ana, 38, talks exclusively to the News of the World ahead of September's New York court case in which Campbell faces an indictment for assault. If found guilty she could get seven years.

 

 

But Ana believes it will take more than a spell behind bars to cure Naomi.

 

"There is not a single nice bone in Naomi's body. She is a psychotic monster. On the catwalk she might look beautiful—but apart from her face in person she is the ugliest person I have met.

 

"She needs serious psychological help before she hurts or even kills someone. I should know—I am lucky to be alive."

 

 

 

Screaming

 

Colombian-born Ana felt the backlash of Campbell's infamous temper from the moment she landed the £10-an-hour job at her New York penthouse at the turn of the year.

 

"Every day she was like a wild, caged animal ready to pounce on any victim, screaming and swearing at everyone," says Ana. Then two months into the job came the vicious attack. She said: "Naomi came home from Europe raging about the state of the house and that there were clothes everywhere. But that was typical Naomi. One minute she'd shout at you, ‘Don't dare touch my f****** clothes' then the next she was rampaging around screaming they'd not been put away.

 

"She pointed her finger in my face and told me I was ‘f****** useless' and a ‘f****** thief' who had stolen her jeans.

 

"Her face was all contorted like a mad witch. Oprah Winfrey was due to come round and as ever Naomi was blaming everyone else for her inability to cope.

 

"I offered to help her find the jeans and tidy up but this just enraged her more. When I went upstairs to look for them she followed me, screaming: ‘What the f*** are you doing?' That was it for me. "I turned round and in a calm voice told her I was quitting. She gave me this evil look I will never forget.

 

"My heart was pounding. I was terrified of what she was going to do next so I went to get down the stairs and out of there.

 

"The next thing I felt a searing pain in my head. Then her silver mobile phone fell next to me on the floor. I don't know if Naomi had thrown it at me or come up behind me and hit me with it.

 

"I put my hand to my head and felt blood pouring out. I knew I had to get out before she went for me again. It was then she charged down and tried to stop me. She put her arms round me and screamed that I had to stay.

 

"I kept saying, ‘Get off, Naomi, I am leaving.' Not once did she attempt to get something to stop the bleeding. Then a male friend of hers who was in the house came over and told her to get off. He kept saying, ‘Oh my God, Naomi, what have you done?'

 

"I told her to get out of my way so I could go to hospital but she begged me to see her private doctor, obviously so no one could see what she had done. It was then I dashed out."

 

 

At hospital Ana was given five stitches to the back of her head. She later made a statement to police.

 

Now Ana—who lives with her husband Lawrence, 47, in New York—believes she had a lucky escape. She reveals she was first on the receiving end of Campbell's temper the morning after she met her. "I'd arrived at 7.45am and was in the kitchen when she woke and screamed, ‘Ana, where is my f****** juice?'

 

"I had no idea what juice she was talking about so she stormed to the kitchen and told me every morning she would need me to mix the juice of two lemons, some paprika, cayenne pepper and water.

 

"It looked vile but apparently it helps keep you thin. She drank litres of the stuff and as far as I could see barely ate, which just made her even more irritable as she was starving all the time.

 

"There was always something which would set her off. If she was going away all her clothes had to be packed a certain way with tissue between each item.

 

"Once she screamed at another maid and sacked her after she put a pair of her jeans in the wrong case. We just spent our life walking on eggshells.

 

"In Naomi's world we were all, in her words, ‘f****** useless'."

 

 

Punched

 

Ana was just another in a long line of Campbell victims. In March 2005, the model was said to have slapped assistant Amanda Brack and beaten her around the head with a Blackberry handheld personal organiser. The star's spokesman Rob Shuter denied the incident ever took place.

 

In November 2004, we revealed how the model attacked her PA Amie Castaldo, 33, who had her lip bitten and was headbutted.

 

Italian actress Yvonne Scio, 37, has also claimed the model left her "covered in blood" after a spat at a Rome hotel. Yvonne claimed: "She punched me in the face. She was like Mike Tyson."

 

In 2001, PA Simone Craig claimed Naomi held her hostage in a hotel and hurled a phone at her. Campbell once appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show to discuss her temper which she blamed on being abandoned by her father before she was born.

 

The model has recently been spotted wearing a T-shirt with the logan ‘Naomi Campbell hit me — and I loved it'.

 

Ana says: "It sickens me she can even try to make a joke out of all the hurt and abuse she has inflicted on people.

 

"I hope she is finally punished properly for what she has done."

 

A spokesman for Naomi Campbell said: "We do not wish to make a comment."

10 July 2006NAOMI 'FRAUD' FRACAS Eva Simpson & Caroline HedleyYOU have to be either very brave or very foolish to take on the fiery supermodel Naomi Campbell.Step forward the anonymous shop assistant who refused to believe Naomi Campbell was who she said she was.The Streatham-born supermodel apparently fled an upmarket department store in tears yesterday afternoon when the store assistant queried whether she really was the person whose name was on the credit card.The bust-up happened when Naomi, 36, went into Peter Jones in London's Chelsea to pick out some luggage and canvas bags.The multi-millionairess went to the till and handed over her credit card - only to be told: "I don't think you're Naomi Campbell". Our spy tells us: "At first Naomi thought the lady was joking and that she was on some show like MTV's Punk'd."After all, she's pretty distinctive and has always been recognised before. But it soon became apparent that the shop assistant was deadly serious."There's been a spate of card cloning and fraud in the area so all staff are taught to be vigilant. But in this case the assistant got it wrong".Naomi protested - and other staff vouched that the statuesque customer was indeed the very famous Ms Campbell.We're told: "The shop assistant thought that the card didn't look quite right and was adamant that they couldn't accept it.A spokesman for Naomi said she felt she had been treated badly: "There were a lot of people in the store and the situation was humiliating. Naomi was shaking with anger."Given the model's previous - she's presently awaiting trial for an alleged assault on former assistant Ana Scolavino - we have to say this shop worker is braver than us...The source goes on: "To be fair, it's not surprising Naomi got riled - she was virtually accused of being an impostor. Some heated words were exchanged and it all looked like it was going to kick off."But before management could intervene Naomi stormed out of the shop vowing to never come back."

Naomi Campbell Sued By Another Employee

FRIDAY JULY 14, 2006 07:35AM EST

By Stephen M. Silverman

people.com

 

Supermodel Naomi Campbell, already facing court cases stemming from accusations that she assaulted two of her housekeepers, was sued on Thursday by a third employee who says the British-born beauty attacked her, Reuters reports.

 

In a one-page summons filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, Campbell's former assistant Amanda Brack said she was subjected to a series of "verbal, physical and emotional attacks" by the model shortly after she was hired by her in February of 2005.

 

"On at least four occasions, Campbell assaulted and abused my client," Brack's lawyer, Gerald McCarthy, told Reuters in an interview, describing a series of tantrums by the supermodel.

 

In one instance, McCarthy said, Campbell struck Brack in the face with her Blackberry, slammed her against a wall and slapped her repeatedly across the face because a piece of her luggage got left behind during a trip to Brazil.

 

He said Campbell threw a cell phone at Brack's face during a subsequent outburst at the model's New York apartment.

 

During an April 2005 photo shoot in Morocco, McCarthy said, Campbell exploded in rage at Brack over a forgotten article of clothing. He said that Campbell left her assistant stranded in Morocco without funds, tore up her passport and threw it into the swimming pool and left her to pay the hotel bill.

 

In a final incident at Campbell's Park Avenue home, she ripped a sweater Brack was wearing "off her neck" and accused the assistant of stealing the garment, McCarthy said.

 

Brack, who was 19 when she worked for Campbell, is seeking unspecified damages for "assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, reckless infliction of emotional distress and false imprisonment," the suit says.

 

Campbell's lawyer, David Breitbart, did not return calls seeking comment.

 

Brack is the latest in a string of former employees who have accused Campbell of abuse.

 

In March 2006, Campbell, 36, was charged with second-degree assault in Manhattan Criminal Court after authorities said she threw her cell phone at her housekeeper, Ana Scolavino, 42, opening a gash in the back of her head.

 

In June, a second maid, Gaby Gibson, claimed the celebrity struck her in the head. She has also filed a civil lawsuit accusing Campbell of personal injury, employment discrimination, civil assault and battery.

 

In February 2000, Campbell to pleaded guilty in a Toronto court to assaulting a former assistant.

Naomi Campbell Becomes A Yacht MenacePosted Jul 17th 2006 9:02AM by Deidre WoollardLook out, she's on the rampage again. This time, instead of taking her rage out on an assistant, Naomi Campbell has smashed up her boyfriend's new yacht.

She is reported to have broken furniture and china and glasses on the yacht while it was moored in the Tuscan Rivieria. The yacht belongs to her new boyfriend, Dubai-born Prince Badr Jafar. The damage could be over $55,000.

Naomi Campbell, hopeless romantic?Naomi CampbellWhen Naomi Campbell was removed by police in London Thursday for trying to pick up her stuff from the home of her ex, Dubai rich guy Badr Jafar, she was simply showing an intense desire to get organized. You know how it is when you want to put things in order at 3 o'clock in the morning.The still-supple supermodel has had many boyfriends: She's reportedly dated Eric Clapton, U2's Adam Clayton, Robert De Niro, Adrien Brody, Flavio Briatore, Kevin Costner, Lenny Kravitz, Eddie Murphy, Sean Penn, Quincy Jones, Sylvester Stallone, Tommy Lee, Mike Tyson, dancer Joaquín Cortés, Joe Pesci, Robbie Williams, Joseph Fiennes, Sean Combs, David Blaine and Formula One driver Pedro Diniz.The relationships have seldom lasted a year, unless you total the on-agains, such as her three-time hookup with Briatore, the millionaire Formula One manager. Nearly all have dumped her after a particularly bad hissy fit.
