Yesterday, a photo of Sean Combs’ first-born daughter, Chance, zoomed around the Internet at breakneck speed.
Every urban blog had that photo up before a loyal reader finally emailed it to me around 2 PM (which proves that I never read certain blogs).
I posted the photo only after I confirmed (with one of Sarah’s closest friends) that the baby girl was indeed Chance.
That same friend later disagreed that Puffy was a derelict father to little Chance. She stated rhetorically, “you never know, maybe Sean and Chance spent the entire day together” — which is code for Sean and Chance spent the entire day together.
But even so, why give the impression that he doesn’t dote on his Atlanta daughter like he dotes on his twins? Where are the photos of Sean and Chance enjoying quality time together? Who cares what Kim Porter says? Are they married? What man would let a gold digging jump off tell him what to do with his children?
Anyway, I digress. One would assume that an exclusive photo of Sean’s first daughter would be worth something, right? Wrong.
FreddyO, who used to shoot for me until he got too big for SR.com and decided to strike out on his own and launch his own blog, reached out to me yesterday to ask if I wanted anymore pics of the little cutie. I declined, but I advised Fred to call TMZ.com, In Touch Weekly, and others to sell the photos rather than give them away for free.
He responded that he did that already, and he got no takers.
Surprised, I called a buddy over at People magazine, who basically told me they weren’t interested in the photos either.
To be fair, People told me that they would consider buying the photo if Diddy was in it. But since when has that stopped them from buying baby photos before? I bet they would buy a photo of Suri by herself in a heartbeat!
We know that the Sean Combs brand isn’t what it used to be (what with all his cooning on YouTube and all), but now it’s painfully obvious that Diddy is no longer A-list.
If there are any magazine editors out there interested in purchasing unpublished pics of Chance, email Fred at outofoder12@gmail.com.
