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.
Carrie Underwood says she has lost all respect for the likes of Oprah, Diddy, Jennifer Aniston, George Clooney and pretty much every other celebrity.
The singer who won American Idol says she dislikes when celebrities publicly back a presidential candidate.
She tells TV Guide that “there is someone I do support, but I don’t support publicly. I lose all respect for celebrities when they back a candidate. It’s saying that the American public isn’t smart enough to make their own decisions, I would never want anybody to vote for anything or anybody just because I told them to. Music is where you go to get away from all the BS. Whether it’s from politics or just the world around you, music should be an escape.
I agree completely, I am sick of celebrities endorsing candidates, thank god it is nearly over.
Diddy (real name Sean Combs) posted a new video blog on his YouTube account today, this time letting everybody know does own a private jet that is registered under the name “Ciroc Obama,” but he only owns a wing on the plane.
This video is in response to reports that he doesn’t own a private jet, which followed the famous video that showed Diddy complaining he had to fly commercial because gas prices being too high.
