Who Said Traveling is Easy?

Naomi Campbell was arrested this Thursday for causing disturbance at the Heathrow Airport in London. According to People magazine, she made a scene on board a plane because one of her baggage was missing. After a dispute over her baggage, police officers were called in to arrest Campbell.

There are two sides to this story: Campbell’s and British Airway’s, the airline Campbell was flying in. Campbell’s side of the story is that “she arrived at Heathrow Terminal 5 in plenty of time, checked two bags in and was told they would make the flight.” However, she was later told by the airline that “one bag could not be found and was missing.” Then, the airline called the police to “forcibly eject her.” The airline’s description of the situation was not the same. Campbell was boarding on the plane with “two large, hand-held bags,” and was asked to have one of the bags checked in. This is when Campbell “threw a few things around the cabin and then spat at the cops.”

I think this is a very interesting situation, where both parties are known to have bad public perception. British Airway’s Terminal 5, is known for losing many of the passenger’s baggage. Since it opened last week, more than 20,000 suitcases went missing. And, of course, Campbell is notoriously known for having bad temper. She has a history of assaulting her assistant while making the film, “Prisoner of Love” and twice throwing a cell phone at her maid’s head. In this case, no one is in their best public perception. However, it is Campbell who got arrested, and it is her who will be remembered from this incident. From now on, she should definitely look out for any more trouble to come. Throwing stuff and spitting on other people is going  too far, even for a model. She can’t turn back the time, but she should at least wise enough to not let too much out of your mouth. In few years, it might not be just her baggage missing, but all her fans and eventually her beauty.
