Naomi Campbell flips out in Heathrow Terminal 5, gets arrested

I guess even celebrities are not immune to baggage problems and stressing out at Heathrow. Apparently supermodel Naomi Campbell was arrested yesterday after causing a ruckus when she misplaced one of her pieces of luggage. She insisted on the airline finding it immediately and when they offered to forward it along to prevent the plane from leaving late she caused a scene.

When the police were called in to manage the dispute, Campbell flew completely off the handle and assaulted the police officer, which, apparently is against the law. She was thus subdued, handcuffed and removed from the plane along with her entire entourage of Campbellites.

If Google serves me right, this isn't the first time that Ms. Campbell has been in trouble for violent behavior. Victims include but are not limited to her nanny, her drug counselor and her assistant, with the total number of claims against her now up to eight.

Wouldn't you know it, attacking people doesn't seem to help the situation when you've lost your bags. Take a lesson from Naomi Campbell and stay calm next time they're misplaced.

Naomi was abused by British Airways.
Google also serves my right and so does personal experience. British Airways is a horrendous airline. They where already the worst airline for baggage losses last year long before they opened that fiasco of Terminal 5 a few weeks ago. They are facing a Class action lawsuit for lost luggage and atrocious customer service practises like they displayed with Naomi Campbell.
So will some one please explain how they knew they were not going to sip Naomi Campbell's luggage while they are still loading the luggage at the gate? They had to have stolen it themselves?
Kate Moss did not find you her new line had been stolen on British Airways until after her assistant spent a whole day looking for it in LAX! Why did they treat Kate Moss better than Naomi? Racism!!!
Racist hate to see such a prominent black person and take every opportunity to to bing them down a notch.
