Driver Apologizes To Naomi Campbell

phpAC4UuwPM.jpg Miodrag Mejdina, the driver who was slugged by supermodel Naomi Campbell earlier this week, apologized to her today. You know, that black eye he has is just from a tumble he took down the stairs, etc.

In a statement he made through his lawyer, he said he “got angry and overreacted” by getting the NYPD involved. He added, "This whole thing has been blown out of proportion and I apologize to Ms. Campbell for causing that to happen."

Earlier it was theorized that his boss, and Campbell's billionaire boyfriend, may have talked him out of pressing charges.

For her part, Campbell says: "On Tuesday, March 2nd I was accused of unacceptable behavior towards a driver in New York. I have worked very hard on correcting my previous wrongdoings and I will not be held hostage to my past. I try to treat everyone with respect and I am pleased the driver has apologized. I would like to put the last few days behind me and move on."

    Good, he's right to apologize for smacking her in the hand like that with his face. Could have messed up her manicure.

    "I try to treat everyone with respect"...



    i suppose the keyword is "try"

    On a side note, P Diddy is throwing her a party in Brooklyn to commemorate the 13th anniversary of when she was still relevant.

    Naomi: "What do you tell a driver with 2 black eyes? Nothing! You already told him twice."
