  • Story Text: Naomi Campbell and Johnny Depp drove many to distraction by their presence at the 100th anniversary cocktail of luxury pens Montblanc's luxury watch manufacturing. Johnny Depp came with French actress and wife Vanessa Paradis as guests to the cocktail held in the occasion, while model Naomi Campbell was introduced wearing the Diamond Profile watch, worth 172.000 USD, the most expensive ever manufactured by Montblanc. The event was held in the framework of Geneva's International Salon of "Haute Horlogerie", where some of the most prestigious watchmakers such as Cartier, Vacheron Constantin and Piaget introduce their high standard watches every year. Supermodel Campbell was arrested at her Park Avenue home last week and charged with assaulting her housekeeper with a cell phone. Campbell, who was later released, could face up to seven years in prison after she was charged with second degree assault for throwing a cell phone at housekeeper Ana Scolavino. Police said it struck her on the back of the head and opened a cut that needed four staples. According to David Breitbart, Campbell's lawyer, the maid's injury was self-inflicted after Scolavino, who had been working for Campbell for two to three months, was being fired because several items were missing from the house. Spotted on the streets of London's Covent Garden when she was 15, Campbell was the first black model to appear on covers of the French and British editions of Vogue magazine. Nearly 20 years later she remains one of the biggest names in fashion. She has also acted in several movies, tried her hand at singing and launched her own cosmetics range.
