PUFF STILL WANTS TO BE DOUBLE-O DIDDY

THE FACTS
Diddy continues to talk about starring in a James Bond film. 

THE SPIN
New year, same Puff. Despite no interest from the James Bond producers, Puff Puff Didd continues to talk about starring as the first Black Bond. This time he took his rant overseas, telling Britain’s The Observer: “I think that James Bond from London should be sent on a mission to come to New York and he should meet me, Black Bond. He should get kidnapped, and I should have to save his ass.”

YOUR SPIN: What do you think is bigger: The James Bond franchise or Puffy’s ego? Tell us here.

PHYLICIA RASHAD JOINS JENNY CRAIG

THE FACTS
People reports Jenny Craig has signed on to become a spokesperson for Jenny Craig. 

THE SPIN
Claire will be shedding pounds for cash come 2009. Now if you’re expecting me to make jokes about her weight, that’s not gonna happen. Nope. Nope. Nope. Not only is Phylicia Rashad also from Houston, she went to Howard – and we stick together. OK, so maybe I do talk slick about Puff Puff Diddy, but that’s different.

If you’re wondering, yes, I’ve noticed Phylicia has gained a little weight over the years, but she’s still fly.

By any chance, do any of you remember her short-lived music career? I had no idea Mrs. Huxtable was the Star of Paris.

If you’ve never heard the song, please listen. Pretty please. Here you go: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5ezOifjDwY.

Maybe she should perform this song in her Jenny Craig commercials.

YOUR SPIN: Does Phylicia make a good Jenny spokeswoman?  Tell us here.

DIDDY WANTS TO BE THE BLACK BOND

THE FACTS
Diddy discussed auditioning for James Bond in an interview with MTV News

THE SPIN
Puff Puff really won’t let this Black Bond thing go. Speaking to MTV News the would-be Double 007 said:

“I know in [MI6] they have some black agents. I know there’s some black people that can save the world. White people aren’t the only people that can save the world. My variation, I would come from the New York agency. I would actually be working with James Bond. And he would get kidnapped, and I would have to come get him and save the day. It’s a natural thing. It’s organic. I think it would be a tragedy for the next James Bond not to be black, and I think the next Superman should be black. We are like the coolest creatures on the face of the Earth.”

You know what would be even cooler? If we stopped begging for scraps and create our own heroes! Since Diddy’s vivid imagination has already planned out a way to include himself in future Bond movies, maybe he should use that creative energy to build an action hero around himself. I’m sure he would prefer that anyway. Besides, if they were going to make any Black actor James Bond, ya’ll know it would be Will Smith.

But knowing him, this is all about promoting his I Am King fragrance.

YOUR SPIN: Would Diddy Puff make a good James Bond?  Tell us here.
