The diva is not happy. Former supermodel Naomi Campbell is considering suing British chocolate maker Cadbury, claiming its new ad that references her, is racist. The supermodel told the UK's Daily Mail she was shocked and hurt to see her name on billboards and in newspapers next to the Dairy Milk Bliss bar. ‘Move over Naomi, there's a new diva in town," it reads. "I am shocked. It's upsetting to be described as chocolate, not just for me but for all black women and black people. I do not find any humour in this. It is insulting and hurtful," she told the newspaper. Black civil rights groups have already urged shoppers to boycott products of Cadbury's US. parent company, Kraft Foods. Kraft Foods told the daily the poster has been removed and there are no plans to repeat it. "It was certainly never our intention to cause any offence and the campaign itself is a light-hearted take on the social pretensions of Cadbury Dairy Milk Bliss," it said in a statement.
