Those of you who have been waiting with baited breath to see if supermodel Naomi Campbell would be found guilty of assault, I have good news. On December 13, the leggy British model was found not guilty of assaulting her former housekeeper Ana Scolavino. Of course, Campbell isn't completely off the hook since she was also recently accused of assault and battery by her former maid Gaby Gibson.

If the legal system isn't going to do something about Campbell's behavior (she's been found not guilty several times before) maybe we should take matters into our own hands. If all the personal assistants, domestic workers and maids in London refused to work for her maybe then she would be forced to recognize the error of her ways. And if she didn't, at least the world would get to take some delight in the thought of Campbell having to wash her own dirty laundry.

As Madonna proved last month, one of the best tactics for dealing with bad publicity is to make a confessional, candid appearance on Oprah. Jennifer Aniston did it, and so did Tom Cruise (we all know how that one turned out). Now, supermodel Naomi Campbell has agreed to appear on the Oprah show later this month to defend herself against the string of assault charges she has faced over the past year.

I'm usually not one for the celebrity sit-down on the Oprah show, but I am dying to see this episode. I'll be really interested to see how Oprah treats Naomi. As much as I admire the O. for being a truly sympathetic human being, I just hope she doesn't get all "Oh, poor you, Naomi!" on us. I don't know about you, but I definitely don't have an ounce of tolerance for a raging, self-important diva who thinks throwing her toys at her domestics is the correct way to deal with her problems.
