As you may remember from a story we put up last last month, wicked sea trout and destroyer of hotel phones Naomi Campbell has accused Cadbury of being a massive bunch of racist scumbags after they created an advertising campaign in which she was compared to Bliss, a new chocolate snack. Seems a little bit risque, huh? It would have been, except for the fact they were comparing her to Bliss because she's such an awful temperamental shit, not because she has black skin. Of course, that's not how she saw it. Possibly because she's an awful, temperamental shit.

Following on, she then accused Cadbury of trying to force the entire black population of the world into slavery and said that in the grand scheme of things, the advert was only slightly better than burning kittens with a blowtorch. Naturally the ASA (advertising standards agency) got wind of this and decided to wade in and find out was was actually going on. Strangely enough it came to the conclusion, as the rest of us did many moons ago, that Campbell is an awful, temperamental shit:

"[The advert is] likely to be understood to refer to Naomi Campbell's reputation for 'diva-style' behaviour rather than her race. On this basis the council decided that the ad was unlikely to be seen as racist or to cause serious or widespread offence."

Anyway, the end result was that Cadbury's agreed to take the advert down for the sake of good relations and the case was dropped. However this still leaves the most ironic part of this whole shitty tale, in that the strapline for the ad which Campbell was so angry up about was 'Move over Naomi, there's a new diva in town', a claim which she then promptly proved to be untrue by acting like a complete spoiled arsehole.

Maybe she's smarter than we thought.
