People – Campbell Lacks Model Manners
Naomi Campbell was released on bail Friday after a spat with a police officer at London’s Heathrow Airport’s troubled new Terminal 5, where one of her bags was lost.
Campbell, 37, left the airport police station just after midnight. London’s Metropolitan Police said she was released pending further inquiries and told to report to a police station in late May.
The London-born supermodel was arrested late Thursday on suspicion of assaulting an officer after police were called to a disturbance at the airport. Since Terminal 5 opened last week, more than 28,000 bags have been separated from their owners.
Witnesses said Campbell was aboard a British Airways plane due to depart for Los Angeles when she became involved in a dispute because one of her bags had been lost. During the dispute, Campbell allegedly spit on the officer.
Campbell has a history of assaulting assistants and employees.
In 2000, she pleaded guilty in Toronto to an assault charge for beating an assistant while making a film in 1998.
In January 2007, Campbell pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault for throwing her cell phone at her maid in a dispute over a missing pair of jeans.
Good rap on Lil Jon’s wine
Larger-than-life producer and rapper Lil Jon has started his own wine label, offering selections including chardonnay and merlot.
“It kind of came out of nowhere,” Lil Jon told The Associated Press of his new venture, Little Jonathan Winery. “We were just going to do some private label stuff (for parties) and we did it, and people was like, ‘Hey, it’s pretty nice.’”
Little Jonathan Winery is not Lil Jon’s first venture into the drink market: He launched Crunk!!! Energy Drink a few years back .
K-Fed is king in Vegas
Kevin Federline might play the part of the pauper to his pop princess ex-wife Britney Spears , but in Las Vegas he is king.
Federline spent more than $43,000 on Las Vegas hotels, dining and shopping between May 2007 and January of this year, according to documents filed by Federline’s attorney in his custody battle with Spears.
The tabs included $1,445 for clothing at Gianni Versace, $3,863 at TAO nightclub, and $3,008 at the Hard Rock Beach Club.
The Los Angeles Superior Court commissioner dealing with the Federline-Spears custody battle has consistently awarded Federline attorneys fees.
In March, Spears’ divorce attorney, Stacy Phillips , argued that Federline’s attorneys were over-billing, and her client should not be required to pay.
Spears pays her ex-husband $15,000 per month in child support for 2-year-old Sean Preston and 1-year-old Jayden James .
The bulk of Federline’s income came from his work on a Nationwide car insurance commercial that aired during the Super Bowl.
He earned $15,000 for appearing at his 29th birthday party at Pure nightclub in Las Vegas, and $50,000 for a series of appearances at Las Vegas clubs in December 2007.
