Sean Combs releases a “movie” on YouTube promoting his new men’s fragrance and announcing his desire to be the next James Bond:
I am debuting my new movie “I Am King” for my new fragrance “I Am King” which is available exclusively at Macy’s. This fragrance is dedicated to Barack Obama, Muhammad Ali, Martin Luther King and all you men out there who take care of your families and respect and treat yourself like the Kings that we are all. I would like to also announce that this is my audition tape for the next James Bond. There is a black president and it’s time for there to be a black Bond. God Bless.
This is, officially, the worst thing I have ever seen on the Internet, if only because he’s taking himself so seriously. The man is riding a wave runner while wearing a tuxedo. And I don’t think it’s a joke.
Update: Well, the YouTube video is down, but you can watch it here.
slow news day?
a little.
Of course, this means that all profits from his fragrance which he dedicated to so many important civil rights leaders will be donated to their various foundations right?
I thought not.

Nice
First of all puff daddy is one ugly mother ! The only reason why he’s where he is today is because he killed and cheated his way to get there. Talentless good for nothing scumbag! By the way I wonder if Fonzworth shot this crappy video what a joke!

Painfully white
HAHA, I love it. I was watching you and Jason exchange tweets and I thought… “He’s gonna write a post about this.” Diddy is KING.
We are all kings… even my cocker spaniel: his name was “king” from now on it is “diddy-king.”
Yeah from the vedio , He looks like a bond.
well, what’s so bad about the nice girls?
piff paff puff daddy diddy duddu whatever is boring, as usual
Oh my word…The man is taking himself far too seriously
This guy is King of all that is Douche.
And his post is a racist declaration. He might want to be the first black Bond, but it looks more like an audition for the first black Bozo the Clown.
“I would like to dedicate my fragrance to Obama, Ali, MLK, and anyone else famous with NO connection whatsoever to cologne, who I can mention to sound pretentious and get more sales.”
A fool and his money are soon parted. (Yes, you should equate Diddy to the fool)
Sorry but in this sheep world, Sean is a herder of many fool’s cash
What else has Diddy not tried? Awesome!
WTF???
This is the ultimate in “me branding”. Kudos to UGC fueling huge ego displays.
I’d sooner be a pauper than a draft doger like cassius clay or surrender jester like barry soetero. MLK while inspirational was by no means a saint. If this is what diddy consider’s majestic then ding, dong…ask not for whom the bell tolls.
“Like to dedicate this to: Obama, Jesus, Santa Clause, Me, and the rest of the African Americans out there–even that one guy in Alaska.”
I think Diddy, or puffy, or state puff marshman–whatever he calls himself, would be a better XXX. Just because you can wear a tux doesn’t mean you got class.
First, Obama is the “Messiah” now Diddy wants to be the next James Bond. What is next? Chris Rock as the next astronaut or the next Donald Trump, or the next Pavarotti, or the next…
Bond is suppose to be English and if he were cast as a black man, that means he would probably be cast with someone of Jamican descent anyway. The old colonies and all and given thats where most black immigration to the UK is from.
Two strikes agains’t Diddys plans to inflict more of himself on us all. An African American black is not what makes a James Bond.
I think he needs to read some Bond boooks.
The video is gone. > “We’re sorry, this video is no longer available.”
Is there another link to it?
The bloke’s a prick

Not sure why you guys are hating on Diddy… don’t hate the playa, hate the game. Like it or not, he is a brilliant showman and businessman. He is a very hard worker, and to many, an inspiration.
As for the video, sure it is over the top, but at least he isn’t afraid to put himself out there. He will never be Bond, but thats not the point. To me, the point is that if you believe, you can be anything. Even the President, or even James Bond (which seems to be even more elusive and outlandish than a black President based on the comments).
“the point is that if you believe, you can be anything” — True, even without leaving the house…
I also believe that Diddy might pull this off IF he is persistent enough… You see, a “community organizer” from Chicago is the Prez now…
I officially nominate Arrington to be the next Shaft.
I second the motion…
There’s already a black dude in the james bond movie…he works for the CIA though. Diddy sucks anyway…
OK, but then we need a white Shaft for the next installment. Fair is fair right?
So white people were enslaved by black people for a couple hundred years?
OMG Jake, every group of people on the planet at one time or another through out history have been enslaved by another group of people, GET OVER IT! Black people sold black people to white people. Why don’t you get mad at them too? Oh and btw IT WAS A WHITE GUY WHO SET YOU FREE!
Diddy as Bond. Not far-fetched at all.
In the mid 80s I worked in a movie studio that owns the rights to Bond series. The studio had just been purchased by a tycoon, who, in a production meeting to discuss the new Bond movie, seriously put forth the idea of casting Eddie Murphy as Bond. Back then Eddie Murphy was the “it” star, having just done “Bev Hills Cop”.
(PS: the tycoon eventually left the movie business and became a Vegas mogul, and I think I have hinted enough about his identity here.)
That would’ve been amazing.
HUGE HUGE HUGE difference between Diddy and the talented and funny Eddie Murphy. For one thing, Eddie can act. He could have pulled off a british accent no problem. This is not a black/white thing. It’s about Diddy making a fool of himself on a global scale for the past few years. He’s had too much smoke blown up his ass. Time for a reality check.
Hey Diddy, you are not a joke. You are THE joke. And certainly not a king.
As the Founder of Chubby Mommy Running Club, I nominate me to be his Bond girl.
Diddy as Bond? hahaha. More like Diddy the next Norbit.
hahahahahahahahahahahhaha
errr, video taken down, anyone have another link?
Here’s a link to the brightcove version. Made my day.
Ok: http://link.bri...bctid3256005001
James Bond fans are still getting over having a blondie play Bond.
Arrington wants to be the next Perez
OMG…. He just got on my shit list, with Jay Z and Kanye.
Your shit list is made up of black people?
Diddy may not be very good when it comes to intelligence or common sense, but he sure knows a lot about style and how to promote himself…
Kick him out of the City, he is a dumb arrogant drug dealer. Any James Bond, even imaginary one, has more class and intelligence than diddy (note the lower case).
I think Diddy’s smarter than 99% of the people who commented here…
Including yourself ! How would you know ?
From his point of view it makes sense. Black prez and really if you look around at prime time cop dramas African Americans are elevated to the top spot, or at least placed in a position of ultimate authority disproportionately.
Example, take a look at Fishman taking over on CSI, look at NCIS, Law and Order…and on and on.
For me I won’t look at the new Diddy Bonds, call me politically incorrect, I don’t give a damn anymore.
“Black prez and really if you look around at prime time cop dramas African Americans are elevated to the top spot” Even when TV *IS FICTION* you are comparing police departments, a local-municipal scenario, with national politics…. you are really dumb! Please turn the television off and grab a good book!!!
Don’t know about this. Even if a black bond is an interesting idea, Puff Pastry shouldn’t be given anything more than a grip role.
Diddy, are you ready for your dolly grip role?
Diddy: Yessir, aa aaahhm! Cristal anyone?
Jokes aside, a better idea is MA as the next SHAFT.
Also,
- Martha Strewart as Big Momma
- Russell Peters as Crouching Tiger
- Ellen DeGenerate as Rambo
- That weird Herbert something guy who ‘invented’ Youtube as Neo
and finally…
- Kanye West as Legally Blonde
Yo, WTF? James “Diddy” Doo AKA Diddy Doodie Black Bondo Blue Foo aint black?
Hey Diddy! When you change your name again, come back here to find it…
I am King smells remarkably like someones white ass!
Wow. Hate much?
Diddy is a guy trying to sell as much crapas he can, like many celebrities. And he is doing so in his usual self-aggrandizing, over the top manner. He is, in my humble black opinion, as idiot regardless of color. He and his comments would be idiotic regardless of the color of the head from which they were originating.
The fact that some would attack him not just for being an idiot but being a black idiot just goes to show that President-elect Obama’s election really changes very little with regards to how we interact with one another.

Ok…everybody step back for a minute….Isn’t James Bond English??? Like from England??? So what does a Black American President have to do with anything??? When England has a black king, then we may resume this conversation!
I would be his Bond girl. Diddy is an Entrepreneurial Icon. He is a master at branding. You can’t take that away from him.
He is a master of ass
Nothing says ego like “i am king”
Once again, “you can take the man out of the ghetto, but you can’t take the ghetto out of the man”… he can’t even speak proper English! Surely a requirement methinks!
This is the fragrance world for you, selling the idea of power through what would otherwise be a hard abstraction to sell. The fragrance smells like oranges, so if you want to ‘be King’, go to your kitchen, peel ‘em babies, and squeeze it on both sides of your neck. You’ve saved yourself 60 bucks, gas and time, and you are now King.
The fragrance world I see is def not for the tech crunch crowd. Perhaps if one of my web ideas were to hit, I will release one myself.. (and that’s a promise) called…
“I am Geek”
Pour Homme.
Do wah Diddy Diddy dumb Diddy dumb
This is what happens when you’re rich and surrounded by sycophants. You make a fool of yourself and no one tells you otherwise.
Could the dialogue have been any more trite and pretentious? Wow.
Did you see the intro text to his video. Big as old King Typo in the content. Someone gots to get their ass fired for that –
“… A hunger for the extraordinary. A brief in the impossible ….
http://www.sixt...impossible.html
shouldnt that be ‘belief’ Ping Daddy or Piff Dingy or whatever you called .
ha! yeah, that’s as far as i got.
one of the better spoonerisms i’ve seen in a long while.
You dumb F**K. What he meant by “A brief in the impossible” was a moment doing what many thought to be “the impossible”. I’ll admit he could have said that better. But HOW MANY OF YOU DUMB F**KS dropped out of college and ended up being worth close to HALF A BILLION DOLLARS? And your talking trash about a black man who worked his butt off to go from the ghetto to the penthouse? Why? Because he has a global impact on culture and success that has surpassed yours by leaps and bounds? Let him be proud and cocky all he wants. He deserves it. DAMN even some of our great tech geeks are cocky. Michael why don’t you write a fucking piece about underlying racism in technology. Half the comments on this blog were racist. I’m not even BLACK and I saw that.
Are you guys scared of a black man with a bigger wallet then yours? Or is it the fear of a bigger dick? Because it takes a big one to make the video he just did. And most of you admitted you don’t have a dick big enough to do it.
he certainly is a dick
what about a white president ???
now your talking
ok….so to the educated person nothing on here is racist whatsoever. we all think he’s a retard cause he thinks just cause he’s big in american culture, he thinks he has the authority to change things. he’s black, bonds white. you can joke without being racist btw. plus it’s not like we (commenters) owe them (black people) anything lol… you idiots and your leftist media…
Here he is, the biggest douche in the universe.
You guys are one hell of a people. Comments make this story even more funnier. I just can’t stop laughing.
Funniest thread of the year award. No doubt.
Sorry for the second comment. But I almost drooled while watching his video clip, he deserves the worst actor award, seriously.
Well, it can’t get worse than Daniel Craig.
So why not?
Diddy playing Bond would be more like the US having a British citizen as President. I seem to recall that there is a requirement that the actor playing Bond must be a British citizen. I don’t think Diddy qualifies there…
“the worst thing I have ever seen on the Internet”
damn! that must be so ugly !! the video is no longer available…so sad
