Posted Jun 21, 08 2:09 PM CDT in Gossip 

(Newser) – Naomi Campbell was sentenced to 200 hours of community service and about $5,600 in fines yesterday for her tantrum on a British Airways flight, the London Times reports. She pleaded guilty to assaulting two police officers and berating the pilot after the airline lost her luggage. "You are not leaving until you find my f***ing bags," she allegedly told the captain.
