Some people will do anything for a little attention. Anyone who would want to work for that attention whore, Sean Combs, can’t be altogether there – or they desperately need a hug.

For those of you who didn’t catch that train wreck titled “I Want To Work For Diddy” on VH1 last night, Dimewars.com has the entire episode uploaded here.

And here‘s an excellent madcap recap of the lunacy courtesy of Rich of FourFour who also blogs for VH1.

I wondered the same thing! If you ask the people who have worked for him, they would tell you that they have gtten to where they currently are in life cause of him.. That transgender dude is fuuunnnnyyy! I will be watching this WAY before I watch anything Kim Porter has to say
Kymystry

I actually agree with Auntie on this one … #1 Puffy is an Attention Whore .. #2 the folk who auditioned are crazy and need Dr.Phil … lol
MAJAHINEVERYWAY

I love me some Diddy, but I know that I could NEVER work for him. It is a great opportunity for someone who is trying to be in the entertainment industry as an executive. I’m watchin’ it now.
Sharonda

I don’t like taking orders..not something I want to do with my life, good luck to them because Diddy is sure is a Queen.

i watched the show last night and they done some crazy azz ish just to be diddy’s assistant now dont get me wrong I will tune in for next week episode because Im reality junkie! but however there is “PO-Oprah” aka Kim aka Queen of all bitchezzz!

I LOVED the show, but then I am an executive assistant and event planner. I would kill to work for Diddy or anyone else in his high profile position. When he said someone told him they were tired and he asked them what that rhymed with I yelled at the TV, “BUT THEY STILL GOT IT ON THEIR RESUME!!!” What I think of of Diddy personally has absolutely nothing to do with my career. As you can see from his former assistants the job always leads to better things. I actually wanted to try out for this show because it would do wonders for my event planning business. So the answer to your question is I would work for Diddy and I am not crazy, just crazy ambitious. I’d work for Diddy for free.

So is this the other reason why the Cassie rumors were spreading?

YEAH THIS SHOW IS SUCH BULL SHYT
NYCUTIE

Isn’t this job to be Diddy’s personal assistant? That is very much different from being his admin
trulyposh

i agree with you, burd.
gotta get in where you fit in and ain’t nothing wrong with paying dues when you know the pay off is phenomenal.

i thought the lady kim already won!! according to sources…sandra i’m shocked you didn’t get that news from your credible sources yet!

I’d tell Diddy to take his job and shove it. I’d screw him but I could never work for him.. LOL

this type of ish makes for great tv…i don’t care if u r sick of reality shows…

I watched the show and say what you want-but if you work for diddy’s crazy azz you will definitely have the necessary skills to become more than a successful personal assistant, look at the level of success his former assistants have achieved.

Who wouldn’t want the opportunity, if you are single and no kids and have the drive and the ability to withstand all the craziness you just might win the opportunity to travel the world, meet people in the industry, and make some powerful business connections-

it’s no more or less an internship opportunity that just happens to be for a industry mogul-the possibilities are endless……

stop playin, he’s an attention whore but he is a perfectionist and he commands perfection..if you can survive his antics and outbursts you definitely could gain exposure, capitalize off of the experience and knowledge you gain, and land a damn good paying job and possibly for a less anal celebrity.

I have never been a personal assistant yet I have done such things as take my exec’s car in for maintenance, filed personal income tax returns, organized their wive’s (who don’t work) personal events, scheduled and waited for the cable man, etc. When you support senior level executives you are their personal assistant.
intensemocha

@Bird

exactly, my title is personal assistant and all of the tasks you outlined I’ve done and then some……

personal assitant means you assist them in every facet of their lives even their personal lives, but the perks are very nice, you are their trusted right-hand man per se…
teecee

people will do anything to get on tv, any he will do anything to be on tv. so its a perfect match.

To give you an idea how ambitious I am, I was willing to give up custody of my children temporarily to try out for this show and possibly work for Diddy. Doing so would benefit them enourmously in the long run.

I am devastated by the spoiler that you just sprung on us without notice. I hope it turns out not to be true just for the suspense, but really I hope it is true because Poprah can’t be Diddy’s assitant long term. She is a boss and having worked for executives I know there is no way they can go from being the boss to being bossed. They’d commit suicide first. So if she did win she’ll be dismissed quickly for screaming on the wrong person and they can do the show again and I can try out next time.

man…i am a junkie for those apprentice-type shows…OMG! i am an accountant and would die to have a have a job like this, even if its just for six months. its just seems so damn fun. but that fat girl’s team was sooooo wack! they were so unorganized…and for the shit they had to do, seems like they could’ve gotten more done. i wonder how much does his assistants make to carry his heinz ketchup? …now that i think about it, nevermind!
candycane

I enjoyed the show. I personally wouldnt want to work for Diddy, but someone that wants to get into that industry it will be a helluva stepping stone. Plus there are WONDERFUL perks.
mina

I wish they would’ve gotten rid of that heffa kim!
iscream

I don’t know which one of them is Kim but I pray it isn’t that big girl with the train track teeth. Her mouth is too big for her teeth to be jacked up like that!
MzDetermined

I don’t care how much money diddy pays me I would notbe his slave…I can just see my blood pressure going up working for him, I would be more stressed dealing with him and his order’s… Them girls are all warefare recipients and will do anything for money.

An assistant in NYC supporting an executive of Diddy’s caliber commonly commands a 6 figure salary.

@MzDetermined

warefare recipients? WTF-that was first off spelled wrong welfare is the correct spelling and be careful when you judge a group of people based on their financial circumstances, and if your logic was even close to true about welfare recipients then they definitely wouldn’t be applying to be p-diddy’s assistant would they?

It’s obvious from the show thus far that they are seeking an ambitious, hard-working, detailed oriented person, who can work in a fast-paced environment under enormous pressure.

MzDetermined, I would suggest that you make good on your name and educate yourself first on the spellcheck button, and secondly, on the amount of successful women who were once “WAREFARE RECIPIENTS” as you so eloquently stated.
iscream

Claudine was on welfare.
pinky2083

i’m kinda mad over that spoiler myself!! i would have liked to find out by watching the show.
ggouch

I would work for DIDDY and TRUMP in a heartbeat. I am an EA now. I didn’t even know they were doing a show of this nature for DIDDY. I mosdef would have tried out. I wonder will they give it a second season. If they do…I’m there. Watch my name folks.
ggouch

My cousin said she just saw it again. She said Diddy said after working for him…you could work for ANY EXECUTIVE in the world. Man I gotta catch the next episode to see what he had them doing…did they walk to BK for cheese cake.

warefare recepients? WHO?!! The indivisuals that work for DIDDY? I am confused…who is on wellfare?(was warefare (the spelling) a part of the joke too….I don’t understand the comment.

I would bet my paycheck that most of the folks that work for him, are degreed up. Even Fonzworth is a MOREHOUSE man!! HOLLA

HELL NAW @ MIMI RENEE!!!!!!!!!!!I am cracking the phukk up at your comment b/c I was trying to figure out how she came up with that spelling also. I guess she thought she was spelling it phonetically! LOL

warefare a-k-a sweetface :)….we missed u!
bklynchick

@intensemocha

WARFARE LMAO!!!

You are on point with everything you said. I personally could not work for Diddy I have two girls and I am a single parent so in my eyes I am the HBIC. I am use to being in the boss role and can’t be treated less than that. But, I do feel if you don’t have any kids and just getting started in life I would definitely go for it. He runs a multi-million dollar company he doesn’t need or wants slacker in midst. So yes you better be on time, dressed to impress and ready to work. Cause one slacker can mess up a whole show. I think the Tranny and the other guy who was dressed really nice might win. Kim could win but she likes being the boss. One thing about her she will get the job done. In the wise words of Diddy…..

In reality you can’t get a job working for a top exec or even a lower level senior exec like a VP when you are just starting out in life because it takes years of experience before they would even consider you which the majority of the contestants have. That one chick that is still in college wouldn’t get past HR in the real world. I was an administrative assistant for about 7 years before I could even break into the executive level.

And yall stop messing with that girl about her warefare. hehehehe

Whoever she is she should know that employers don’t ask about your government assistant history. As long as you don’t sound ghetto you will be allowed to move up if you work hard. No exectutive is going to allow you to represent them acting ghetto or having the stereotypical kneck rolling sista girl swag. One thing I like about the show is that exploding when you are pissed is good TV and might keep you around, but the fact is if Diddy disrespects his assistant in front of others or curses at her/him or even barks orders the assistant has to suck it up. Please believe white execs outside the entertainment industry do it too.

I couldn’t work for Diddy because he enjoys embarrassing people and I can’t stand anyone like that..if he says it gets you tough so be it..but i’m not in bootcamp..NO ONE disrespects me..I’d have to cut him

puff sux! but hey he does help people on the executive level (certaintly NOT musically) do well and soar!

they are still crazy as two hells to want to work for that beast.
MzDetermined

@ intensemocha…

Calm down it is not that serious…you is taking things a little too far. Why are you so mad, you must be on welfare because you are all in your feelings about the comment I made that wasn’t even directed towards you. And as far as the typing error we all make those so let’s not go there.

Who in their right mind would want to work for Diddy?

Is “The Single” about Monica or B. Cox?
