Diddy Spends $750,000 To Be James Bond

How much would you spend to be in with a chance to play James Bond? If you’re Diddy, you are willing to spend $750,000 in hopes to be the first black James Bond.

Diddy apparently flew by private jet to the South of France to film an audition tape, right beside the Casino Royale. In one of the scenes, Diddy is wearing a tuxedo and surrounded by his very own Bond girls … in a helicopter.

Speaking about the tape, he says “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.”

He has already sent the tape to James Bond executives, but he apparently has competition from rapper Akon and Jamie Foxx who both want to be the new Bond once Daniel Craig leaves his role.

Diddy didn’t completely waste $750,000 on his James Bond audition though, he is also going to use the footage as part of the promotion for his new fragrance, I Am King.

It must be nice, but it sucks for upcoming actors who dreamed of being James Bond.
