Naomi Campbell to Sue Over Racist Chocolate Ad

Rageaholic supermodel Naomi Campbell is considering "every option available" to stick it to Cadbury for using her name in a chocolate ad, which she finds racist:

I am shocked. It's upsetting to be described as chocolate, not just for me, but for all black women and black people. I do not find any humour in this. It is insulting and hurtful.

And here I thought that Naomi's hostile, whiny, possibly perjurious testimony at that Sierre Leone blood diamond trial meant she was allergic to court.

For the record, I support Naomi becoming a race crusader. About time society find a productive use for the wrath of Campbell! Let's see you compare Obama to a monkey near Naomi Campbell's French-manicured fists of fury, hmm? [Independent]
