Naomi Campbell, From the Catwalk to Mopping the Floor
Let this be a lesson to all of you aspiring bad-tempered models! Before you try to throw a bedazzled cellphone at your hired help, realize that you might be sentenced to hard labor by a NYC judge! And by hard labor, we mean, "hard" for a bratty supermodel.
Naomi Campbell, who pleaded guilty to lesser charges in the cellphone assault of her housekeeper, will mopping the floors at a Department of Sanitation warehouse on the Lower East Side starting March 19. The punishment will be indoors, away from the telephoto lenses of the paparazzi, unlike Boy George who had to pick up trash in the heat of last summer and the glare of camera flashes.
A Department of Sanitation porter tells the Post, "She'll have to wear a safety vest, and gloves and boots, because you could step on nails and glass. But they're going to take good care of her. They don't want a lawsuit on their hand." Yeah, because the DOS knows what happens when Campbell gets angry!
Campbell still needs to take two anger management classes by May. And for the curious who want to catch a glimpse of a chauffeured car, the warehouse is at PIer 36, on Montgomery and South Streets. Finally, here's a great photograph a reader took of Boy George performing his community service.

thank god for that photo being posted as a result of the sentencing.
This could only be better if Foxy Brown was also doing community service with Naomi.....
Naomi could throw things and Foxy could hit and spit.
She can't beat the publicity from this, her rate will definitely be up up up! Go Naomi!
She made a mistake like anyone else, we all make mistakes so don't look at her as if she is any different; we all have our limits and so does she. She had the grace to confess that she did wrong in this event and now she is facing the sentence bravely as a adult who knows she did what she did. Lay off her, let's turn the page on this, it is over. There are to many people out here, hurting other people and even killing other people who aren't as brave as Naomi has been in this and won't admit what they did now have the strength to face the judgement and mind you the cameras aren't looking at them and they've done more serious offenses. Let's get a grip and see things in their proper perspective.
While she's here she may as well swing by the launch event this week for the new indestructible mobile phone Casio launched called the G'zOne.
