Naomi Needs Help

2007_03_naomibag.JPGFor some reason, Naomi Campbell can only carry one bag at a time. The Post breathlessly reports that on the supermodel's second day of community service at the Department of Sanitation warehouse on South Street, Campbell's bodyguard tried to get a DOS employee to carry her tote for her. But the employee refused, and a DOS police lieutenant John Fitzgerald, a 24-year vet, got stuck carrying it!

The DOS explained to the Post, "Our policy with community service workers is that we don't touch their personal property," but "there was a state of confusion this morning. Naomi forgot her bag. There were personal items she needed, like her ID and clothes. It's not our policy, but as a courtesy today, he carried it for her."

Uh, based on the photographs, it doesn't look so much like a "state of confusion" as Campbell's bodyguard not wanting to run after Campbell, who is not that far away, to give her the bag. Maybe he's afraid she'll find her bejeweled phone and throw it at him.

Anyway, even though she's wearing a chinchilla coat to go and mop floors, she's apparently wearing jeans and a camouflauge shirt inside, along with boots. Maybe she'll be inspired to buy some DOS fashion!

No one carried my bags!

 

can't she just drop dead already.

 

Maybe Mugatu can re-launch his line of fashion - Derelict.

 

Goldbrick.

 

You know, maybe someone should skin her and make her into a coat. Seriously, something is very, very wrong with her. I didn't like her before this but the coat? Well, the chinchilla coat made me feel a little bit of hatred and for someone I don't even know...

 

The Post really needs to start reporting real news. I feel dumber for even living in the same town as that paper.

 

Somebody really needs to slap that "Look at me, ain't I just the hottest thing?" look off her face. There's smug and conceited, and then there's Naomi.

 

seriously, can't she be dead already (no need to drop, feel free to stay seated in the back of the escalade). sh*t's not right.

 

If only we could mop the floors w/that smirk on her face.

 

wow. What nerve, What Gaul, I guess when you have money things tend to get done your "Personal" way !

 

Firstly it is not a chinchila coat. And what do you expect her to wear? She will have to endure years of ridicule because of this episode. There have been worse people in this life get over it people. And it is funny how some have read into the photo how about looking at the rest, then make a judgement. Lastly most people that have to do such service would not have the world press camped outside waiting for thier every move. We created the stars now we have to live with what we created.

 

If it's not a chinchilla coat, h, then what type of fur is it? I heard that it was chinchilla fur on other news shows as well. Do you care to correct everyone if you know the truth? Or are you just going to say we're all wrong and call it a successful day?

 

could be rat...

 

The next time I reincarnate I think I'll come back as a thin, good-looking, long-legged slut.
THEY can get away with anything apparently.

 

Well we now know that she has the walk in and out down but can anyone tell us how she is at actually doing any cleaning. Maybe a shot of her leaning over actually scrubbing out a toilet.....

 

People will always try to take advantage. All the cop had to do was say "Um, No." and place the bag on the ground. Then the flunky would have retrieved it and run after Naomi with it, as he is paid to do.
