Naomi Campbell assaulted by a Brit

The catwalk queen was partying at the W Hotel in Miami, Florida, on Thursday when she was approached by an unnamed woman. The British female reportedly pushed past one of Campbell's pals and started a tirade of abuse at the beauty, reports pagesix.com.

"Naomi and her people were talking to DJ Mike Noveau when some crazy British girl came over, shoved Mike out of the way and started screaming at her. She yelled, 'How could you do that, you ****!' She was quickly dragged away. Naomi started walking in the opposite direction but couldn't take the verbal assault, and yelled back at her," a source told the publication.

According to PageSix, Campbell's representative Alan Edwards confirmed the woman has allegedly been trailing Campbell for some time.

Edwards also said that the model hasn't been taking any risks during her US trip - she hired a bodyguard to accompany her at all times because she is still terrified following the 1997 shooting of designer Gianni Versace who was killed outside his Miami mansion.

"She usually doesn't travel with a bodyguard. But the police here actually recommended to her that she use one. She didn't want to take any chances, especially after what happened to Gianni Versace," he said.
