Naomi Campbell Trial: Kay Burley Goes Native?
TO a court in London where Naomi Campbell is up before the Beak.
She emerges from the dock wearing an haute court-ure off-the-shoulder smile, walking in step with Sky News presenter Kay Burley.
A bump. A bruise. And Associated Press photographer Kirsty Wiggleswort is, apparently, marked about the throat.
Says Burley, overheard by the Mail: “As far as I am aware I did not put my hands around her neck. I was hit in the face with a camera. Like anyone else would do I just put my hands up. If I did anything else, I apologise.”
Followers of the Campbell oeuvre will recognise this as the non-denial denial. When accused to attacking her housekeeper, Campbell’s laywer issued this statement:
“Miss Campbell’s housekeeper was notified that she was going to be let go because of things missing from the apartments, and all hell broke loose. The injury is self-inflicted. Someone with the prominence and affluence of Miss Campbell is an easy target. But I know Miss Campbell, and she is as beautiful inside as she is on the outside.”
Now listen as Burley explains:
“As far as I am aware I did not put my hands around her neck. I was hit in the face with a camera. Like anyone else would do I just put my hands up. If I did anything else, I apologise.”
A supporting backstory wrapped in a non-denial denial. Supported by a Sky News spokesman adding:
“Kay Burley was provoked by a hard hit to the face with a camera. She has already said that if she did any more than put her hands up, then she apologises.”
Has Burley been studying Campbell? And if she has, can we yet rule out the presence of a mobile phone?
