P Diddy says he doesn't want to pay $250,000 for a round trip to LA

P Diddy: I can't afford to fly my private jet

Rapper moans about fuel prices and takes an American Airlines flight

Wednesday, 27 August 2008

P Diddy has been ranting on YouTube about the rocketing gas prices in the US. Fuel is so expensive that he's had to stop flying his private jet to Hollywood and take an American Airlines flight instead.

'It's criminal!' says the rapper in a clip filmed as he boards a scheduled flight. 'Commercial seats do not cradle the sexy the way private jet seats do.

'As you know, I do own my own jet and I have been having flying back and forth to LA pursuing my acting career. Now, if I’m flying back and forth, like, twice in a month that’s like $200,000 or $250,000 round trip. F**k that. I’m back on American Airlines right now.'

The musician, 38 - real name Sean Combs - asks his Saudi Arabian 'brothers and sisters' to help him out.

'If you could all please send me some oil for my jet I would truly appreciate it,' he smiles. 'We need to do something about it, so tell whoever the next president is that we need to bring gas back down.'

I can totally relate to P. Diddy. Fuel prices have also caused me to ground my jet - aka, my 1993 rusted out Ford Tempo, and I've had to fly commerical too, aka, walk the 4 miles to work everyday. Well, time to go eat my lobster and caviar, aka, my Kraft Dinner.

Who the heck does he think he is? I am ashamed to receive a "shot out" from someone such as him; he's no brother of mine. I would kindly tell this African American gentleman that he should NOT have turned that power button on and turned that video in on himself. He just added one more notch to his overwhelming pathetic character. I can not believe this man is whining over gas prices on his PRIVATE JET @ $200,000 roundtrip to whatever destination - confirms he can 'afford' to fly with an airline, which some people can not. I'm certain he wasn't flying coach!! I'm already not a P-Diddy fan, but just this "took the cake". I hope his fans all over the world see his video and see how pathetic this man truly is. Just my two cents for what it's worth... Respectfully, From A Non-Commissioned Officer Serving Our Country For A Whole Lot Less $200,000 A YEAR - With No Complaints!!
