Spitting Image
(I couldn’t resist the title. For those of you who are relatively new fans - Adam Clayton was once engaged to Naomi in the early 1990s.)
This from today’s Boston Herald:
Security guard spit on in another Naomi spat

Just months before her latest arrest, Naomi Campbell unleashed her world-famous temper on Madison Square Garden staff and spat in a security guard’s face, reports the New York Daily News.
The moody mannequin had perched herself upon a barrier during a U2 concert in October, and blew a fuse when a security guard asked her to kindly climb down.
“Campbell told the security officer that she was not going to get down and that he was a (expletive) (expletive),” a source told the News. “She then spat in the officer’s face.”
Not exactly model behavior for the world-peace-preaching band’s performance!
According to the source, the abuse was witnessed by two other security guards, and a senior Garden official was called in to intervene.
“(The official) explained to her that it is against Garden policy and the policy of the band’s security to sit on the barrier railing,” said the spy. After another heated exchange, the official threatened Campbell with ejection from the venue.
Attending the concert as a personal guest of Bono - the lead singer of the Irish rock band - “she replied that she would like to see that,” reports the onlooker.
The 35-year-old Britain-born beauty was not kicked out but the source said the guard filed a harassment complaint with cops.
Unfortunately, the case was closed without investigation because Campbell’s actions were considered more rude than harassing.
The cantankerous catwalker was cuffed Thursday for allegedly bashing her housekeeper’s head in with a crystal-encrusted Blackberry after accusing the maid of stealing a pair of $200 designer jeans from her Park Avenue penthouse.
The housekeeper, Ana Scolavino, 42, needed four stitches to mend the wound on the back of her head, according to police.
Scolavino’s lawyer has said that Campbell tried to cover up the incident by demanding the maid not go to the hospital.
Campbell is currently in South Africa, joining former President Nelson Mandela in promoting a children’s charity.
