CAMPBELL HITS BACK AT 'NEGATIVE' PRESS

NAOMI CAMPBELL has slammed the media for continually portraying her in a negative way - insisting she isn't a 'bad person'.

The British supermodel, who is notorious for her angry outbursts, was recently fined and sentenced to 200 hours' community service after assaulting two police officers onboard a British Airways flight at London's Heathrow Airport in April (08).

The incident was the latest in a long line of violent incidents involving the 38-year-old. She carried out community service in New York last year (07) after she was found guilty of assaulting a staffmember.

But the catwalk queen is eager for the public to focus on her more positive qualities, she says, "I'm not a bad person. When people say all these negative things about me, I ignore them.

"Let them be negative - but do that away from me. It hurts but I know there is much more good in the world."

She adds, "I'm blessed to be able to do charitable work and good things but no one focuses on that because I don't throw it in people's faces. That's why they focus on the negatives."
