Have you ever dreamt of being the personal assistant to the rich and powerful? Here’s your chance. Diddy, aka P. Diddy (only in England) aka Sean Combs, aka Puff Daddy, has decided to tap into the younger market in his quest for a new assistant. The music mogul is accepting online applications in the form of YouTube video auditions. Prospective candidates are encouraged to apply by posting their very own YouTube clip, 3 minutes or less, explaining precisely why they would be a suitable successor to the venerable Fonzworth Bentley. Be warned, however, that Diddy has quite the temper, and is known for his bizarre, and frequent requests. You may find yourself fetching a sugar cookie from Spanish Harlem before you know it. Applicants must possess a college degree of some sort. Over 600 people have applied thus far, so get to your digicam and make us proud!

    Damn you eJay… Well I would think (for some reason) that you would be up for it. But being his house ‘negro’ or not Fonzworth did make a few bits of money. So screw being know as the weird assitant the money might make me happy?! Then again…. I do enjoy being me.

    Don’t understand why a college degree is needed because I think anyone that puts their heart and soul into something they really want to do can get it done and achieve as much as you have.

    Thank you,

    I also do not understand why you would need a college degree to get a sugar cookie.

    If I only knew of the opportunity… I would’ve jumped on it. I love challenges. How hard could it be. You have the necessities and access to everything you need. All you have to do is demand/ request… Then supply. I do that in my everyday life dealing with guest that come and stay at the hotel I work at.
