The other night at the NY Knicks vs. Chicago Bulls game, Knicks superfan Jay-Z was treated to a special performance by the other team’s mascot. During a break in the game, Bulls mascot Benny boldly walked over to Jay-Z while his wife’s hit “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)” was playing and proceeded to do the famous dance from the music video. Jay happened to be sitting with Diddy and Diddy’s son, and the three of them remained mostly deadpan while this was happening. However, if you look close, I’m pretty sure Jay looks a little bit like he’s trying not to giggle.

Jay and Diddy show so much maturity here. Not even ten years ago I would have expected either one of them to get up and punch a guy in the face for doing something like this. Gives a girl in love with Lil Wayne some hope, ya know?

It’s like the Polanski petition all over again with all the celebrities backing Tiger Woods during his “time of need”. You’d think that most people would be afraid to comment on either story publicly (especially if they sympathize with the person whose character is in question), but no! There’s always someone out there hungry enough to provide sound bytes that might make the paper.

Us Weekly put together this list of celebrities who have publicly come to Tiger’s defense:

Donald Trump: “He’s had a very interesting and very traumatic couple of weeks…But I know Tiger and he’s a wonderful guy. Tiger is going to be hotter than ever. Mark my words.”

Kim Kardashian: “Obviously, he made a statement where he said there were issues and he hasn’t been the best man for his family, so obviously something’s going on there…I think it’s proven to be really stressful on them. So you just kind of feel bad for his wife and for him.”

Khloe Kardashian: Lamar [Odom] just said he thinks it’s sad. He was like, “We’re so attacked, and nothing’s going on.” He just feels that people should just stay out of it. They’re obviously going through something a lot more serious than it’s just like to make a headline. People were in the hospital–they need a minute to get themselves together, regardless of what it is.”

NFL player Terrell Owens:  “I do think Tiger has done a great job of trying to apologize and being contrite, and so I think that’s the first and foremost thing you can do is be remorseful about it. I wish him well and hope he and his family rebounds.”

Dennis Rodman: “I know Tiger. He is a very good guy. He has beautiful kids and a beautiful wife and what’s going on right now he just needs to just talk and say, you know, whatever, I’m here man. He didn’t do anything wrong, he became famous at a young age. Once your life is under a microscope everyone wants to look at you and just nitpick everything you do so bad.”

NFL star Reggie Bush: “For those of you who think Tiger ‘won’t be the same’ after this, you guys are crazy! He’s maybe the single greatest athlete of our time!…I’m specifically speaking on Sports not talking about his personal life! This will only drive him to be greater! Golfer’s better watch out!!”

Gilles Marini: “Time heals…Go on vacation far away from all the frenzy. I don’t know what really happened. I’m curious about the golf club, more than anything else. The sexual life and what happened between them is not our problem and there’s a war going on that is more important.”

Diddy: “Ye without sin cast the 1st stone!!!! Put down your rocks sinners!!!!! Tiger keep your head up! God bless your fam Black man!”

Two Kardashians, Donald Trump, Reggie Bush and Dennis Rodman? What’d they do to get these quotes? Go stand in front of some Famous Moron Convention with a microphone? None of his supporters are even remotely surprising.

Diddy was making it rain at a taping of 106 and Park when he accidentally threw some ice along with the cash.

While tossing bundles of bills into the audience during a performance, his diamond ring slipped off his finger. Members of his crew then tore up part of the set looking for it, and when that turned up nothing, they detained and searched every member of the audience with a metal detector. The ring wasn’t found.

You’d think a man who can afford to toss cash out to the crowds like a Real World cast member giving away free herpes wouldn’t have a problem losing a piece of jewelry valued at a mere $20,000, right? Well, actually, the bundles of bills he was handing out like a Mormon with a surplus of  tiny green bibles were mostly fake, with only about $25 to $100 of real money mixed in with printed paper.

This debuted on L.A. radio Friday morning.

I’d like to write something about it, but I’m too busy deciding whether to laugh or vomit. So I’ll just let the song’s lyrics speak for themselves.

“The world is Michael Jackson.
I’m Michael Jackson.
You’re Michael Jackson.
We all Michael Jackson.”

< Insert vocal track of Chris Brown singing about some angels crying >

And I’m not sure, but at about 1:08 I think The Game is confessing that both he and Usher were molested.

“I shave and groom my private areas. It’s a better presentation for me. If men require women to go through the pain, we should return the favor.”

Diddy, who tells Allure magazine that he requires any woman he dates to undergo “Brazilian waxing, leg-waxing, brow-threading, manicure and pedicure.”

Here’s his thoughts on McCain’s use of the term “that one” during the debates last night. Between “that one” and “my friends,” all anyone can seem to talk about today is John McCain’s lingual pecadillos.

One of my friends changed her status message this morning to “THAT ONE ’08″ and I thought that was kind of a riot.

Anybody know what Diddy did to his arm?

Here he is reppin’ Obama at Madonna’s NYC show last night.

Heh.

I guess it’s just Sarah Palin Day, since there’s nothing else going on during Labor Day weekend.

Here’s a fairly humorous rant by Diddy on the topic of McCain’s VP choice. And this was made before all the news about Bristol came out.

Thanks Kathryn!

Remember that LA Times story we called bullshit on, like, weeks ago?

The LA Times called bullshit on it today, too.

“In relying on documents that I now believe were fake, I failed to do my job,” said Chuck Philips, the reporter behind a story accusing Sean “Diddy” Combs of being behind a shooting of Tupac. “I’m sorry.”

The Deputy Managing Editor made a statement of his own: We should not have let ourselves be fooled. That we were is as much my fault as Chuck’s. I deeply regret that we let our readers down.”

So there you go.

I was right, the mainstream media was wrong.

Hooray! ;)

Here’s Diddy showing off his twin daughters — D’Lila Star and Jessie James — at the finale of Making the Band.

Now I’m not one to make fun of babies, but these girls seriously look like they’re about to throw down. I’m afraid of them.

Diddy reportedly had an accident last week and broke his foot, so he’s all gimpy and shit now.

His rep says: “He did have routine foot surgery, but I’m not getting into specifics. It wasn’t broken, it was a scheduled operation. He’s doing great, and he’s on the mend.”

Routine foot surgery?

How far up your own P.R. ass do you have to be to claim your client had routine foot surgery? Like, did he just decide to swing by the hospital for a little foot tune-up? “It’s just a little creeky, doc. Could you open it up and move some of the parts around so that it runs smoother?”

Some people get chemical peels, some people have routine foot surgery, I guess.

And why the hell are you covering up the fact that he broke his foot? What’s the big deal here. What are the “specifics” into which you refuse to get? Did he have his foot stuck up Aubrey O’Day’s pussy in some weird sex shit? Did it sprain when he tried to hit her G-spot? Did he call his doctor the night before like, “Hey, Doc, Aubrey and I are gonna play the foot game again tonight, so I need you to know there’s a decent chance I’ll be in tomorrow for some routine foot surgery. Just a heads-up.”

What is going on here?

Diddy hit the streets with ex-girlfriend Kim Porter and their 10-month-old twin daughters, D’Lila Star and Jessie James.

The music mogul recently got word that DNA testing proved he was also the father of a 15-month-old little girl in Atlanta. “I will take care of her for the rest of her life,” he said.
