Does Naomi Campbell actually believe her own bull?

I saw an interview with this disgraceful supermodel on the weekend and I wanted to reach through my TV and slap her. The slapping part is not entirely in the appropriate spirit of what I was thinking which was: STOP MAKING BLOODY EXCUSES FOR YOUR ABUSIVE BEHAVIOUR AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE FACT THAT YOU ARE A VIOLENT BULLY.
In the interview, she was aggressive and wild-eyed, claiming that she'd been called "a racial name" by British Airways staff which had prompted her to abuse and assault several police offers (even though the police by her own admission had nothing to do with it). When pushed by the interviewer to elaborate, she said:
‘I was called a “Gollywog supermodel”. I don’t think that’s really fair, do you?’
No, Naomi. Name-calling and racisim is not really fair. Beating up innocent by-standers is even less fair.
When is this woman going to get some proper help and start admitting that SHE might be the problem, not the maids, the police or the rest of the world....?
According to reports, here's what went down:
The plane's captain tried to talk to Naomi about her missing baggage, which contained the dress, but she shouted back, "I can't believe you have lost my f*cking bag. Bring me my f*cking bags now." She told the captain to go get her missing bag and show it to her. The captain tried to give her a list of options, but Naomi wouldn't have any of it, snapping: "How dare you tell me what my options are? You are not leaving until you find my f*cking bags." When the captain walked away, she shouted after him: ""You are a racist, you wouldn't be doing this if I was white."
Things escalated from there — Naomi refused to leave the plane, yelling, "F*ck you, f*ck you, captain" and "F*ck off, I have paid £5,000 for this. I have a right to be on this plane." Finally, three police officers were brought in to escort her from the plane, one of which was subsequently struck on the arm with Naomi's phone and spat on, and another of which was struck in the thigh with Naomi's "formidable" stiletto-heeled boots. As she was arrested for assault, Naomi shouted, ""You are only doing this because I am black and famous. It is because I am a black woman. You are all racists. I am going to sue you. I am going to f*ck you. I am going to sue you like a motherf*cker."

She is a thoroughly unlikable individual. Beautiful on the outside yes, on the inside - not so much!

She reminds me a lot of my ex-husband. Except he is not black. Or female. Or six foot tall.
But they are both asshats.

UGGHH! she's just tabloid fodder these days, I wish she'd go away. And yes Mel, a huge asshat.

I agree with Jaime and I don't know why brands still have her modelling for them, she's not a great role model whatsoever and it only adds to her ego ... they should all teach her a lesson, may be no money coming in will help, clearly community service isn't getting the message across, a magazine last time dressed her for a photoshoot each day ... it just confirms to her that her behaviour is okay! what is wrong with the world????

She is a completely vile individual and I doubt an ordinary woman with her past behaviour and arrests would have avoided jail like she has. She really is a menace to society and should be locked up.
I also can't believe anyone would hire this woman. I certainly wouldn't buy anything she promoted.
