Naomi Campbell beats yet another assistant with BlackBerry?

All that binging/purging must really be getting to supermodel Naomi Campbell's head, as today she's come under accusation for a second time for beating up one of her assistants with a cellphone. Though her publicist has vehemently denied the incident, word on the street's that Naomi was smacking her PA around with a BlackBerry—at least it's a step up from that time in 2000 she beat her then-assistant with a regular cellphone—communicator-style this time! What, a Treo 650 isn't good enough for you, Naomi? Maybe we're crass, but we still can't help but wondering how the device held up.

LOL, rich pretty people crack me up.

[Awesom-o @ Dec 19th 2005 12:53AM]

Yeah. They crack me up too, but Naomi Campbell is by no means "pretty".

Strange and exotic, fine, but pretty? Definitely not.

Can't she just hire a machocist whose greatest fantasy is to be beaten up by a tall black woman using personal electronic equipment? I'm sure there are plenty of potential candiates for her.

BTW,

What devices do you guys @ Engadget use on your assistants? :-D

[Ryan Block @ Dec 19th 2005 12:53AM]

Mike,

Those dense, hefty little Treos. What else?

Best,
Ryan

I use to work right next to her shared office in the Island Outpost space. Her entire group (rejected models) is pretty retarted. i wanted to beat her entire group with a bat. (NC Connect)

Well, once you been tarted once it's so hard to to do it again!

All I've got to say to Naomi is: come on, if you have to beat an assistant use a Motorola A845!

If the assistant presses charges you can tell the judge you were temporarily insane from trying 8 times in 2 minutes to get the A845 to finish a RealTV clip.

I don't think the Blackberry comes with a built in insanity defense.

Maybe she wants to beat me?

[BlackBerry @ Dec 19th 2005 12:53AM]

Anyone know which Blackberry device?
