Diddy is reportedly upset that he gets no love from People Magazine:

Sean Combs is said to be furious at People magazine for panning his performance in “A Raisin in the Sun” and burying the photos of his twins in the back pages. The weekly just featured Diddy’s ex-girlfriend, Jennifer Lopez, and her twins, Max and Emme, on the cover – and a large layout inside on them and Lopez’s hubby, Marc Anthony. “It was the last straw for Diddy. They gave him lousy placement [in the Feb. 12, 2007] issue when Kim [Porter] had his twins, D’Lila Star and Jessie James.” If People paid anything for the photos, it was a tiny fraction of the $6 million the weekly allegedly paid for the images of the J.Lo twins.

In the March 3 issue, a review of “A Raisin” praised Phylicia Rashad and Audra McDonald, but then added, “The one problem: Sean Combs . . . he stands there blinking, baby-faced, unable to leap into the actresses’ ring of fire.” A rep for Combs e-mailed us: “Sean loves People magazine and all the wonderful coverage they have given him over the years.”

Damn, this dude ain’t never gonna get over Jennifer Lopez. SMH.

Here is Jenny From the Block looking pretty damn good for popping out twins a bit ago:

    Boo hoo hoo

  • Ms Fufu

    He got front page og HELLO magazine, so dats OK..ryt?!!!

  • And…..

    If Sean Combs didn’t realize he was Black, he knows now. Also, its a shame that these celebrities are using their babies as paychecks and publicity stunts.

  • Bill Bigsby

    thats not because hes black. Its because nobody cares about him. Hes not a hit maker. He not that important. Had t bee 10 years ago he would have had the cover.

  • loislane

    Stop whining, Diddy. There is no comparison between J-Lo’s babies and yours. J-Lo has been trying to get pregnant for years, so it was big news when she had her twins. Some chick is giving birth to a Diddy baby every year. So when more little Diddys come into the word, the media yawns. Get it? Besides, J-Lo is married to another celebrity, while you ditched Kim barely before the ink was dry on the photo of your twins. People mag isn’t stupid. They’re not going to make a big to-do about the big happy family when they know your silly ass is going to be running down some skanky white ho (Sienna, Cameron, need I go on?) before the mag even hits the newsstands. Diddy, you’re a smart man. Get a clue.

  • celebsRppl2

    what loislane said………..

  • Lucy (the other one)

    Thanks wifey I agree.

    At times people you need to see beyond color and realize its about behavior as well.

  • lovely and amazing

    Diddy must be kidding. His twins didn’t get top billing because no one takes Diddy and Kim seriously.

    March Anthony and Jennifer Lopez, whether you like them or not, are a respected married family and people have anticipated their having children. On the other hand no one thought it was a good idea for Kim to have more children with Diddy.

    Didn’t Diddy cheat on Kim with Sienna Miller right after the twins were born?

  • lovely and amazing

    @ loislane, truth, wifey

    Co-sign!

  • K-ten

    yup, i agree with them too.

  • prisseme

    J.Lo is a HO just like Kim K. Her babies are beautiful – but she sucks!

  • Lucy

    He has 22 illegitmate kids and Kim has 15. That’s nothing special! They should have been in Jet magazine instead of People. Next to the Stab Wound/C-Section Scar “Model” of the week.

  • Tiffany

    OK first off Diddy needs to give it a rest!! Jlo and Marc Anthony are a very popular MARRIED couple. People are very curious to see their twins. Diddy had these twins with baby momma #3? GIMME A BREAK!! GET MARRIED DIDDY THEN MAYBE SOMEONE MIGHT GIVE A DAMN.

  • Gwen

    jlo is famous no one cares for mark anthony and Diddy is famous no one cares for kim they should have showed the twins a little more because they are cute but they will only pay top dollar to see only two black babies and they have to be by halle barry or beyounce

  • luvgossip

    Loislane’s got on the money. Co-sign.

  • Me

    Are these kids his??? They don’t look like him to me. Yeah, where is the baby in ATL?

  • luvgossip

    Correction: Loislane’s got “it” on the money. Co-sign. :)

  • DM

    What is so special about people having kids out of wedlock. Dang, how many does he have? He wants anything that looks like him on the cover. Who does he think he is?

  • Dominique

    He has a point.

    He should just not invite any staff from People MAgazine To his White PArties…

    In a Diddy voice”Take that,take that”lol

  • Shavon Denise

    Um, I dont think he is dwelling on the J.Lo thing I think he’s talking about People magazine and countless other “white” magazines that dont give black entertainers due props. Even the Will Smith’s and the Halle Berry’s of the world get the back seat to the Tom Cruise’s and Angelina Jolie. I cant even remember one of Brad Pitt’s movies grossing as much as one of Will’s but thats what you have to put up with in white Hollywood.

  • cherish

    why should he care? its stupid cause he shouldn’t even be doing it for the money but to show the world his babies.

  • Reformed GammaRay

    agree wit above,

    she’s ATLEAST married, while yo ass got babies all over the place, and not never been committed to not ner ONE of the mama’s.. s’not cute. Her births was highly anticipated, theirs, not so much. they were in what essence, ebony, whatev and you had the gaul to have this glamourous shoot but still portraying yourself as just her baby daddy where marc, is gushing over jen, his love, his life, his WIFE and his added bonus his babies..

    his performance was a bit painful to watch anyway, he needs a dose of his own slogan..and use those tshirts as pillowcases and seat covers..

  • And…..

    I agree that Diddy isn’t the best father-figure out there, but on the real, how many times has People magazine covered Black families and their babies. None that I can recall. Was Angie Basset and her husband on there? Nope? And let’s not pretend that they have the best “mama-figures” on their covers either. I like Nicole Ritchie, but come on! She’s a crackhead and what kind of role model is she? I bet Jamie Lynn Spears and her baby daddy will make the cover too. If Beyonce and Jay-Z were married and had a baby, I bet they wouldn’t make the cover either.

  • Billups

    JLO does not look good, she needs to lose about 30 pounds to get back to normal. That fat b*tch..

  • EarnRespect2GetRespect

    How can Diddy who has so many baby mamas that I have lost count get mad with People Magazine. J-Lo is MARRIED to her babies father. Can’t say the same for Diddy who has babies everywhere all over the Country. When you start BEING a Father & not ACTING like a Daddy, maybe you will get more respect. Never been married, but have babies with everyone everywhere. I wouldn’t give you the time of day, I don’t care how much money you have. You won’t have it for long because child support will eat your A$$ alive. The babies mamas are stupid too because all they want is a check not thinking about the child & Kim Porter, he didn’t marry or settle down with you with the first baby why on earth would you get pregnant again? You are just like him too with the exception you have two baby daddies as oppose to him having at least 3 or 4. That’s a DAMN shame. My people, get it together. No wonder we are losing so many of our children to prisons. Spread kids everywhere some of them are going to fall short & grow up being bitter & angry at their celebrity Daddy who was too busy chasing tail instead of being in ALL of his childrens lives. Yeah, you are a big man Diddy. B.S.

    J.lo’s babies look just like their dad… NOT A A GOOD thing ~ yuck:(!!! but yea Kim porter isnt famous.. the mother of the kids has to be famous!!!

  • shemama

    Being married has nothing to do with it. Angelina and Brad Pitt were paid millions for their baby’s picture. When did they get married?

    Brown babies get no love no matter who their parents are. It’s the pale babies, even if they aren’t cute…yeah I’m talking about JLo’s kids, that get the $$$.

  • Map

    Diddy is annoying.

  • MOOREPERFECT

    no one really wants to see that double foolishness anyways…

  • and another one..

    Diddy is a stank breath ‘how u doin’ suspect snitch. He needs to sit his hoe ass down in a dentist chair and get those dolphin teeth cleaned/fixed – he is a damn disgrace!

  • http://onedroprule.org/about1720.html Nita

    Maybe if Diddy did his part in celebrating the best of blacks, and particularly black women, instead of screwing black women on the sly but having the Aubrey O’Days and Sienna Millers and Cassies on his arm in public…. I’d have more sympathy for his point as it relates to him.

    But he’s just upset that HE’S the victim of People’s ‘blacks don’t sell, so blacks don’t get the cover treatment’ bias. Where was he for other people? that’s right, no where — no where, except jumping on trampolines for white people when he holds his predominantly white-invited parties. Who does he think he’s fooling?

    @And…. , your whole post is on point; and a lot less incendiary than mine LOL but co-sign with you.

  • Vinandi

    Ha ha- Diddy simply has false illusions of grandeur!

  • Vinandi

    @ Nita,Jalilmaster, Truth, Earn Respect, loislane, wifey

    co-sign!

  • sally

    THE twins is lovely ^^ Diddy is good .hard to believe that he put his profile at interracialromancing.com

    is he looking for new relationships?????

  • commenting for fun

    Why would they put him and his what 5th., 6th?????????kid anywhere but the back of a magazine when you seen one you seen them all. He’s not promoting no “family value’s” all we hear about him and his family is all he did to kim, how he got his jump pregnant, and a whole bunch of other negative sh*t, his daughters are cute and all but, People Mag is more family oriented than his Diddy Style, his performance was O – K. jennifer – far from perfect but her and MA been waiting a long time, got the family thing going, same for Nicole and Christina all little touching stories to inspire that is what People is about. If Diddy wants cover go to Sister to Sister or Vibe.

  • http://Afo.net BALLER

    Diddy, is a poor role model to his children.

  • http://Afo.net BALLER

    I could assure Diddy the average white reader of People magazine wont be writing any letters on his behalf. They could care less if he is in the Front,back, or in the magazine at all.

  • Kompton’s Kutie

    People of the world don’t care when Black celebs have babies. They only care when White folks have them, he knows the game, so why is he tripping? When Kim had those kids she was not Breaking News, so shut up Diddy and get over J.Lo and the fact that those aren’t your twins.

  • YBG

    I totally agree with loislane! Couldn’t have said it better myself! Diddy get over yourself, it’s not all about you!

  • Vee

    From time to time I will glance through the comment ssection to read the opinion of other reader’s and for the most part they are some interesting comments made. However, this time I felt compelled to make my own comment to Mr. Billy “Whiteshoes Johnson” remember, what we put out into the atmosphere has a way of coming back to us (like our children, or our children’s children). You must be a young fella to make such a joke (I hope it was a joke)regarding Diddy’s girl’s looking like they have Down Syndrome…that wasn’t COOL! Perhaps, someone here has a loved one with the disease..maybe, just maybe that’s why your comment initially wasn’t posted!!!

  • WOW

    Diddy, you want placement?….publish your own people type mag or baby news mag. You have enough (money, drama, friends and children) to get this done.

  • Anton Slizzardhands

    Diddy look like he holdin’ a couple of buddah dollz

  • aqueenwaits

    HELLO?????

    The reason why his twins are on the back pages is so that they can make room for the other 500 kids on the front pages. Duddy needs to stop trippin! He is the only one that is in love with himself. Everybody else is worn out with his love affair with himself. NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!

  • JAD

    Diddy is full of himself. He needs to realize it is not all about him.

  • MzTee

    Diddy needs to get over himself. JLo is an international star with a huge global fan base who is into her every move. Diddy on the other hand is constantly trying to generate publicity. It’s no contest.

    Gwen…you need to do some fact checking. Marc Anthony has a very huge Latino fan base. His spanish-speaking albums sell millions of records in Puerto Rico (his native country) and Latin America. Honey…the U.S. isn’t the end all be all.

  • Grace

    People kill me with the People magazine don’t like blacks. That magagazine has an audience. People magazine can tell by their subscribers address & how many mags they sell off the rack in drug stores, what their audience consist of. The only time I read People is when I am at the doctors office. The only time I buy People is the edition right after the Oscars. I would not expect to see Brad & Angelina in Ebony. This is just Diddy needing recognition from whites that he is still relivant. He hasn’t had a hit group or Cd in years. The only thing keeping him on the A-list is his clothing line.

  • STREETS

    Diddy has a baby every year so y is he tripping? Not only counting the babies by kim. he has them throughout the united states. How are people magazine supposed to keep up w/that. Jlo having twins are “special”.. DIDDY having his 6th & 7th child.. umm not so much

  • truself

    Boy it is some mean demons on this website to talk about kids that way. i can’t beleive any of ya’ll would talk with that fake hair, nails, and low self esteem.

    Ok- now to the article. Are you really surprised at white AmeriKKKa? Oh I guess he getting his N_gga wake up call!!!!!

  • establishedat20

    LOL I AGREE IM HAPPY MY LONG HAIR AND NAILS ARE MINE(WHAT THIS HAS TO DO W/THE TOPIC OF DISCUSSION? BEATS ME BUT WHATEVER)

  • Black Barbie

    This is Jennifer’s first delivery…it’s Diddy’s 900th! Secondly, at least Jennifer and Skeletor (oops, I mean Mark) are married! Why doesn’t he even try to do right?

  • lovely and amazing

    @ Nita

    ROFLMAO at your post. Co-sign. Diddy is a trip isn’t he?

  • lovely and amazing

    JLo’s son looks like her and the daughter looks like Marc. Something very cool about two wealthy Bronx bred Nuyoricans marrying and having a family. Diddy should take a lesson from his ex and have some family moral and pride with Kim.

  • LEESA

    I sure hope these two kids “grow into their looks”!

    I’m just sayin’….

  • dee hill

    Diddy made JLO popular, she wouldn’t be nothing if she hadn’t been with him, with all the publicity, good or bad it was good for her career and she knows and ahve admitted to it in the past. I’m happy for JLO because after 3 husbands, Diddy and Ben, it’s good she settle down, but don;t start throwing stones at Diddy. Marc Anthony had a wife and a new infant baby when he decided to leave them for JLO so, don’t go comapring the happy married couple with Diddy’s jet set life, when Marc and JLO had no sympathy go Marc’s ex-wife adn children…that ws COLD. Jennifer was trying to get pregnant for years, thanks to FERTILITY DRUGS now have twins, but Kim Porter had her twins natural. Diddy is a good father, and has been a dad to Kim Porter’s oldest son, who’s biological dad is R&B singer AL B Sure. Diddy had 1 child by Kim who is at least 8 years old and an older son who is at least 13 yrs old, so of course he was excited to know after all this time Kim was having twin girls. Yes, he did mess around on Kim and fathered a child in Atlanta, but he talks the talk and walks the walk. Jennifer Lopez is not even selling CD’s and Marc Anthony is not selling many hits either, at least Diddy is still on TV and going strong. JLO from what I heard wanted people magazine to feature her twins, because she wanted the money….I believe along with others she wanted her twins to have the same attention Angelina’s and Brad’s twins were given. Recently, I heard JLO was being sued and needed money and will be starting a realty show as well…she copys everything Diddy does.
