Naomi Campbell was enraged when one of her three bags was sent to the wrong place on a recent flight. So enraged was she, reports the Sun, that she spat at a security guard and laid into him with her fists and was escorted off the plane and arrested. This was at Heathrow in London.

I don’t actually think she was actually that enraged, she was probably just mildly upset. This is how she registers being mildly upset. Someone misplaced her bag in an era of airline travel where everything is completely traceable by computer and can be returned within a day and so she got mildly upset and merely assaulted three security guards.

Now it would be a different story if say, she were at a restaurant and someone walked up and threw a bucket of paint on her mother and child (let’s pretend she has a child – it’s funny for like so many reasons to think of her as a mother). If that were to happen, actual rage would register and it’s reasonable to assume that she would pull a rocket launcher out of her bag and fire it into the crowd of restaurant guests while standing on the table in her Prada black dress screaming hysterically like some kind of Heraldic Beast.

For someone who so successfully embodies such an easily translatable form of physical beauty, she really is an oddly complex and unusual woman.

I’d like to know exactly what the problem with her really is. I mean, what exactly happened to her as a child. You know, you do tests and you find out that it’s something simple like a sugar imbalance. I know that before I took alpha lipoic acid every day I would sometimes get genocidal after eating a pound of gummi bears (which I’m sometimes want to do…that’s when cans of frosting aren’t available across the road at 11:45pm weeknights). Maybe she just needs to not eat cake? Either that or she should get fired and have to work in an office in suburban Florida forever more. That’d shut her violent ass up. [source]
