Surely a contender must be the role of personal assistant to Naomi Campbell and yesterday there was speculation that the British beauty might be hiring after it was reported that a Hollywood recruiting website was looking for "a full-time personal assistant with very thick skin" for a New York-based supermodel.
Campbell has been accused of violence against employees 10 times between 1998 and 2008, pleading guilty to assaulting PA Georgina Galanis with a mobile phone in 2000 and assaulting her former housekeeper Ana Scolavino in 2007 for which she was forced to attend anger management classes and do community service in New York (which she completed wearing a Dolce & Gabbana silver sequinned gown).
Other notorious incidents include spitting on police at Heathrow in a row over lost luggage. A spokesperson for Campbell later denied that it was her client who had placed the ad, leaving jobseekers relieved.
