Does anyone find this as funny as I do?
Naomi to clean floors
Naomi Campbell has been ordered to clean floors as punishment for throwing a mobile phone at her housekeeper.
The supermodel was sentenced to five days community service by a court in New York, reports the BBC.
Campbell had pleaded guilty to reckless assault in a plea bargain with prosecutors at Manhattan Criminal Court last month.
As well as community service, the 36-year-old was also ordered to attend an anger management course.
It has emerged her punishment will involve cleaning the floors of a sanitation building, starting later this month.
Miss Campbell has apologised for assaulting her maid - the fourth such complaint against her - and agreed to take anger management classes.
Her spokesman said she was ready to report and complete her community service no matter what or where it was.

This is priceless - LOL I guess it won't do the spoilt little madam any harm having to do what us mere mortals have to do, even if it is only for a short while

I'm glad she got this punishment. If you or I had so many clashes with the law, we'd be doing more than mopping floors.
I don't no why she isn't more humble and thankful for the position that she is in.
I do know one thing. There are some housekeepers and maids here in New Jersey who would have beat her butt if she threw something at them.
This is good for her. I hope she learns that having money and fame doesn't give you the right to abuse others.

I don't think she got the message. She walked out of her last day's work wearing a silver dress and matching sandles. She was walking like she was on the runway.
She better make sure she don't repeat her actions in New York again.
Thanks for the best response.

Her punishment is so incomplete. They need to have her scrubbing floors and cleaning toilets in the subways of NYC with a toothbrush while all of NYC's maids throw cell phones at her head.

Lol. Now that's a punishment. "Cleaning toilets with a toothbrush while maids throw cell phones at her head".
I'd love to see that on Saturday Night Live.

Naomi Campbell is such a suceessfull model that it has gone to her head. She has a line of perfumes and colognes and is part owner of the "Fashion Cafe" in New York. She has so much that she must be very unhappy to be throwing mobile phones at people. I think that this punishment will do her some good. Maybe she will realize that other people have feelings too. It really must be difficult to always be in the public eye even if that it the life she chose.

Good enough for her. I would like to see on the catwalk with her apron and her mop...lol. I do however think that she should have received a more harsh punishement for throwing a mobile phone. She could have killed her housekeeper...and this is the fourth comlaint. I am never ceased to be amazed at the law.

I can't stand so called 'celebrities' who get so abouve themselves that they cause trouble, they forget who actually pays their wages. A model is really only a walking clothes horse, and I think we should just ignore any of them who behave in such a fashion. I would have made her do cleaning for a lot longer than 5 days, (5 years would be more suitable), then maybe should would be a lot more humble.

I just don't understand why these people behave like they do. I mean I think they are just the most blessed person in this earth. Though this is the price of the fame they've had, but this did not give them the right, in any way, to hurt other people. They are also human beings, they are not God. Their fame did not gave them higher status than other God's creation. Yes they are famous, they have the beauty, the power. But deep inside, they are rotten.

I must say it is payback to her for loosing her cool, becoz the more money celebrities get the more they feel they are superior to others !

Yes, it's quite funny! But sad, in a sense, that the high & mighty abuse their positions of power so much.
It's good to see a judge hand out punishment that is a direct consequence of her actions.

Yeah I read about it in the newspaper too. Seems like she throwing mobile phone out of accident? or maybe out of rage. We won't know about it. Or maybe she saw the picture?! Just joking.

hahahaha that is funny yes. that will hopefully teach her, not to beat her housekeepers again. its noones right to do such bad things to others. only because she is prominent and a model, doesnt allow her to be special

I think Naomi Campbell is a bully. If she were a regular person she would most likely be serving a little jail time.
What's the deal with her hurting the people who work for her? Maybe this "punishment" will humble her.
