Comment: Hell yeah...Go Diddy!

Name: McNasty
Comment: Sure, let him audition - just don't give him the part. Piddly's sex appeal is limited to those who don't know any better and him.

Name: realuvbaby
Comment: I watched this man on a video where he even had to admit that Cassie's BET show was wack. He started naming all the things he is, and I was waiting for one word: SICKENING. It's one thing to pursue something because you have a particular gift for it. To pursue everything and anything under the sun just because you can just reeks of greed, gluttony to me. He promotes himself constantly, yet he has or had a roster of talent that he has NEVER, EVER promoted the way he promotes himself. Seems like artists who sign with him they get the kiss of death as far as their career goes. His latest victim is Danity Kane! Why haven't he been all over with the artists who has the most sales this year on his label? Wonder how they feeling now? If he wants to prove to the children that you can live your dreams, then why don't he make somebody else's dream come true by putting someone else on. James Bond? Um, let me think about it for a moment: Um, NO, I don't think so. Next!!! Then again, give the man what he wants, and perhaps when he gets it, there will be finally nothing left for him to do and he would have Press/Played himself out and let the real talent -- NOT PACKAGES -- real talent come back. I heard it said that R&B is on life support and I believe it's true. It's because R&B is promoting packages, not talent. If it's just gonna be a few so-called artists being promoted as packages, and the real talent and gifted cannot shine, then pull the darn plug and put us all out of our misery.

Comment: ^^^ you couldn't have said it better gluttony is so apporiate in this case. Puff, Diddy or whatever the hell your name is just STFU already....

Name: pdub
Comment: PLEASE...NO! I really like the James Bond series, and wouldn't mind seeing a Black man carry that role. But Puffy???? Hell naw.

Name: MrsPhoenix
Comment: There'll be a Black Bond when there's a Black U.S. President.

Name: B00TANEB00TUS
Comment: ...This is where ni&&ahs get confused...With all his money and popularity he wants to play James Bond...Why not write, produce, direct a Black spy flick?..To compete with White Bond...Oh, I forgot the White man's ice is colder....

Name: realuvbaby
Comment: Sean? Diddy? Puffy? Just read this on the F4A board about Lee Chin, a wealthy and humble Jamaican, who is ALSO on the Forbes 500 list: "I'm driven by a purpose, and my purpose is to make sure I do not abuse the blessings I have been bestowed," he said. Speaking in Chicago on Saturday night, Lee-Chin said, "It's easy once you have become successful to think me, me, me, me, me. Arrogance would be to not recognize your blessings."

Name: MDhornet
Comment: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA. Thanks for the laugh Diddy.

Name: NYCsoul
Comment: Boot & Realuvbaby: I could not have said it better myself. Right on time and on point!

Name: Laliebye
Comment: Can Diddy act? I remember he did a play a while back but was he any good? I think this is just something to feed into his ego.

Name: musbdherbs
Comment: So black people would rather another black person limit their possibilities? Well, I guess that does make a lot of sense. Do as you've always done Diddy... "you"

Name: bigchassie
Comment: NYC/BOOT/REAL>i'm with yall on this. i'm sorry, i just can't see this happening. sure, let there be a black bond, but not Diddy. he can't pull it off. ok yall...WHO WOULD MAKE A GOOD BLACK JAMES BOND??

Name: MOTHERSHIP
Comment: Diddy a funny muphuccka! You can say one thang about him though, he loves himself!

Name: MOTHERSHIP
Comment: Chassie, Terrence Howard would make a cool azzed James Bond. He has that aura of smoothness about him.

Name: CoCoCaramel
Comment: Michael Ealy and Morris Chestnut would make good James Bonds...

Name: YLawdY
Comment: Terrence Howard looks like his neck should be derty! No to him too. Though I see nothing wrong with Puff Diddly Do pursuing his dreams. No matter what one thinks about him, he has the ability to promote himself and make paper.

Name: McNasty
Comment: Coco good choice, I think Morris is just smoove enough to pull it off. Musb I think it's less about holding this black man back and more about a better choice in case they ever allow a black Bond.

Name: Stephanie
Comment: LOL@BigChas...well, lets hope he gets a cart and buggy to pull those big azz teeth back. All the money this guy claims to have and he can't those choppers cut down...the cost of 3 Sean Jean suits should cover it...dang

Name: kady
Comment: Diddy, sit yo too many teef in yo mouf azz down....

Name: Train
Comment: Who in the hell cares?? I stopped watching 007 back in the late 70's. All of that super white dude saving the world by himself became a waste of time in watching.

Name: Southernbelle
Comment: Guys, I'm really feeling Diddy as James Bond. I mean, along with a good acting coach, I think Diddy could pull this off. Heck, I think he already mimicks the J.B character. Just think back to the Biggie video when they played a James Bond type role. I think Puffy has the style, personality and motivation to make this work. Just my2cents.

Name: Stephanie
Comment: How about Avery Brooks or Lawrence Fishburne?

Name: Southernbelle
Comment: Train>That's my point. Diddy's probably the only black guy out there arrogant enough to belive that he could save the world all by himself.

Name: NYCsoul
Comment: My concern is that we limit ourselves by not thinking outside of the box. Boot was right when he said why can't WE create our own spy hero? Why do they have to be the first 'black' this or 'black' that? Why are we always content being 'second fiddle' someone else? Nothing wrong with saving the world, but what's wrong with doing it on our terms, through our own eyes? JMHO...

Name: PLUGG62225
Comment: B00TANEB00TUS, man you are on point here and people just don't see how bad we as blacks have forgotten how creative we are. Let's start our own Black spy series working for an African government. Remember Bond isn't even American..... I like the Bond series also, but lets get our own. Hell bring back Shaft. Samuele did a great job on the last one, but it was too limited in its scope. Bond get to always save the world. Let's put Shaft in bigger situations.

Name: Dean32
Comment: Sean, thanks for the laugh!!

Name: sultry
Comment: negro PLEASE!!!!!!!!!Are you out of your mo fo mind ? you really do think that your %*$! don't stinks, but no only does your %*$! stiks so does your funky %*$ breath. you make me so sick thinking that you are the one with your tired %*$. all white party giving %*$ self. don't no body care about your or what you are tryig to do and what you want to do. Furthermore we all wish your would just be gone! you will do and say anything to stay in the media for some reported news about yourself so that peokle will not forget you but "NEWSFLASH "they already has forgotten about you. Horsebrath %*$. Keep on dreaming but you need to wake up and smell the coffee!!

Name: TesticAl
Comment: DAMN! Eur is late as hell on this. I read this early this past summer on MTV.com! *Hands Bailey his tardy slip*

Name: Dovelyone
Comment: Blair Underwood is my choice as the next James Bond, not ONLY because he's black, but because he's fine and smooth and intelligent and so on and so on and so on.

Name: sultry
Comment: I just looked at that mess that Puffy was saying in reference to Cassie's performance on BET. I do not know who he think he is but with him offering his stanky black %*$ to people to kiss, it is so distasteful and unprofessional and somebody is going to really give that brother a reality check. He bragged on himself so much in his little cameo until it made me want to vomit. He is so full of himself.he ain' tnothing but a crook because he know something about biggie death. nuff said!!!

Name: timmdogg
Comment: I will give him "props" for coming to her defense and defending his artist, but what about the other artist(s) before and after her? As for the black James Bond, with him in the starring role... brother get your grammer together first (don't stop for life) and learn to be humble. Being the center of attention sometimes takes from what you are trying to accomplish. You can sit at the back of the bus and still have power to weild and be in control - you don't have to be the center of attention all the time! Nuff said!

Name: MrsPhoenix
Comment: Thank you timmdogg! Puffy hasn't come to the front line to defend any of his past artists, so what makes Assie so different? Is the sex THAT good?

Name: MsDee9780
Comment: I don't know if I'm annoyed by Diddy defending Cassie or her sitting there with that whorish smile...giggling at the stupid mess he was saying!

Name: jusrite1
Comment: And this is news b/c? Just to keep his name going so folks can buy that d@mn cd. Wonder if EUR will post what he talks about in his sleep tomorrow....give me a break!

Name: Untouchable
Comment: If Pdiddy or diddy plays Bond it will be the first Bond that will walk around in the film with his mouth half open all the time showing his front teeth or with a toothpick in his mouth. I don't see him for that role or any acting film role really. If Boris Kodjoe could act, he would be ideal. What about Blair Underwood?

Name: Untouchable
Comment: Oops, I see Dovelyone also mentioned Blair Underwood. someone also mentioned Morris Chestnut and Terrence Howard. All would make better choices. Terrence Howards would have to work on his tone (or pitch) of voice though.

Name: PlanetRock
Comment: blank stare. [I'm with Mothership on this one]

Name: bigchassie
Comment: STEPH>CTFUPP!!

Name: bigchassie
Comment: NYCSOUL>you are right. and to tell you the truth, has there really been a cool black spy movie, like a Bond type style? and it will take a brotha, an actor who has the ultra-coolness, extreme sophisication, at the same time be cold-deadly in the kill. the man got to handle stunts (eventhough they will have a stuntman to stand in) and he has to be so suave and drop dead handsome, he'll make a woman drop her drawers at the sight of him. is there a black actor like that, that can carry that? now, i remember seeing this one brotha in this car commercial,i think it was for Mercedes. it was an action commercial and it reminded you of something out of James Bond. i don't know the actor's name but if you saw him, you will never forget that face. broman was on point! he had short locks and he was absoultly cool-handsome.

Name: bigchassie
Comment: UNTOUCHABLE>i'm smelling Blair Underwood and Morris Chestnut. they just have "that look" the ultra coolnes about them. and this may sound strange, but...why do i have vibes of Cuba Gooding in this type??? i don't know, he might be too short. How about Dennis Haysbert (the Alstate guy)

Name: Bumpa_Stank
Comment: I think Will Smith could pull it off...

Name: YLawdY
Comment: Bumpa_Stank ...I hadn't thought of him, but I agree.

Name: AquaBoogie
Comment: I'd say Idris Elba -- he already has the looks and the British accent

Name: YLawdY
Comment: Mr. Eko from LOST.

Name: yasmine1
Comment: the one thing about the British they will put you in your place quick... Diddy.. I can't see the peeps in charge of the Bond series (Brits) giving you the OK...no way

Name: 2SEXY
Comment: Dennis Haysbert would make an excellent James Bond.

Name: Sigmatherunner
Comment: Diddy would be better off producing his own spy vehicle. Albert Broccoli would be doing cart wheels in his grave if Diddy ever was ever to play 007

Name: TMan
Comment: B00TANEB00TUS, you hit it. Diddy has expressed that before about wanting to be Bond. We need to get out of this phase of wanting a Black Version of every hero and shero out here. Create your own and take things to a whole nother level that way. I also think they chose this new rougher loking bond for demo audience reasons. They have put the "handsome smooth" Bond on the back burner for a minute it seems. Those movies make money regardless but I think they want the average lookin joe to come out and relate to the new bond. Who knows?

Name: Southernbelle
Comment: Oh, and Diddy in regards to your new "protege" STOP LYING. You haven't supported one of your artists like that since Biggie. All of the rest of them are One Hit Wonders. You give them one hit then you drop them from your lable. This Cassie chick seems to have cloud your professional judgement. You seem to be caught up into something other than her singing abilites. Until Cassie decides to show the rest of the world what you find so great about her. We'll just continue to write her off as talentless.

Name: bigchassie
Comment: 2SEXY>yeah, he would make a lovely Bond. i just wish i knew the name of that actor i saw in that Mercedes commercial.

Name: katgrrrl
Comment: Y'all are funny...with good points which is why I love coming here. Bootane, ya read my mind! Sean's got enough money to produce some new spy hero stuff! There'll be a Black Bond when there's a YT Shaft...which I, personally, can live without.

Name: Angel
Comment: I think Chiwetel Ejiofor or Idris Elba would be great as James Bond.

Name: katgrrrl
Comment: Untouchable, that was hilarious! ...Walkin' round with his mouth half open showin' his teeth...! That's just what I need on a Monday. :) What IS up with him and Cassie. She's beautiful, yes. But, I don't see how he can be so hard on the wannabe singers on Making The Band and let Cassie and Total (remember them?) slip through the cracks.

Name: chocolattechile
Comment: How about Jeffrey Wright?

Name: Goodgurl
Comment: I only have one thing to say -- Hell to the Naw!!!!!!

Name: MorrisOKelly
Comment: Uh, seeing as James Bond is British and Diddy has trouble enough speaking American English as it is...the idea is not appealing in the least. I really don't even know why he'd float something like that out there. The present Bond has a deal for at least two films if I'm not mistaken. It was a silly comment to make under any circumstances. If he wanted to test the public waters, he only ensures getting clowned. If he was serious, have his agent do the work and do what's necessary...and THEN he'll get clowned there too.

Name: MrsPhoenix
Comment: Agreed Brother Morris...and the present Bond was a horrible choice! Pierce Bronson will be begged to return to that role!

Name: PHScott
Comment: Goodgurl beat me to it, but I'll say it anyway: Oh HEEEEELLLLLLLLLL No!!!!! Ya know, sometimes, you would hope people could be good role models, and sometimes you wish they'd just fade into the background. YOU make the choice here...
