If you watched Sean Combs VH1 series “I Want to Work for Diddy,” then you know how anal he can be when it comes to detail.
After the historic presidential election, Sean Combs decided to turn his 40th birthday celebration into a dual celebration for the new POTUS Barack Obama.
But according to the New York Post’s PageSix, the party promoter-turned music mogul was seeing red after a young decorator failed to decorate Club Mansion to his exact specifications.
“He was given a budget of $7,000 and 12 hours to create an all-white decor, including 1,000 white roses, blow-ups (large pictures) of Diddy and Barack Obama, and $2,000 (of white fabric).
“Diddy declared it dreadful and went into a major hissy fit, screaming, ‘Show me the receipts!’ and ‘Get the money back!’ to his assistant. “Then he began ripping the fabric off the walls saying he hated it. He berated the poor young decorator to the point that the guy gave back $2,000 of the money he had spent.” (Source)
How much do you want to bet the “young decorator” was his “assistant” Mike Barber and Sean’s hissy fit was conveniently taped for a follow-up tv series?

He is such a queen!…
$7,000… he’s such a cheapskate.
I was watching a show and they said it was his 39th bday. How old is he? Also who would want someone filming them if they are going balistic towards someone else. Seems staged to me. Although we know Diddy has a temper and loves the camera, he may not have cared.
why is sandra keep on saying this man is 40? i have done the math based on when he was at howard (1987) and EVEN factored in the late birthday. coupled with the fact i always account for if they may have rode the short bus…i keep getting 38-39.
btw good morn fam.
Morning KWeezy … and I didn’t even read this foolishness .. cause WHO CARES ? ? ?
I love Diddy, he is such a azzhole
He just wanted to clown somebody on his birthday. That’s his infamous reputation anyway. A man snapping about decorations is kind of wierd. It could not have been that bad. Being a jerk is his signature.
ummm. is that Quincy? At a liquor-sponsored event? Isn’t that illegal – I mean, even if the company is paying for your education, cause your momma won’t get a real job?
Good! Hate him. Maybe he was in that “dark and lonely place” Uggghhh, wish this was taped, air that!
First of all…if I were the decorator…when Diddy said that I had $7,000 to spend, I would have been like…
“Okay…well, that $7,000 is fine for my fee…but what will the budget be for the items for the party…because, as you and I BOTH know…in order to do “white” well…you have to go a bit high end…I’m just sayin'”
I mean, how you gonna give somebody $7,000 and request ONE THOUSAND WHITE ROSES!?!?! N—GA PLEASE!!!
If I was the decorator, I would have used the 7,000 to hire another decorator for cheap to help me decorate. Instead of 1,000 rose I would have got 500.
LOL Diddy is SUCH a diva….however, people take him seriously and knows he doesn’t play…maybe that works for him.
Who knows? Maybe the decorations were actually bad. Maybe it didn’t look like $7000 was spent on it. Did that $7000 include the decorator’s fee?
Oh lord…can someone please tell me what POTUS stands for….
@ Choklitfactory,
POTUS means President Of The United States.
