Sean “Diddy” Combs: hip-hop artist, fashion mogul, reality TV producer, fragrance creator and now — lawyer?
Well, not exactly — People magazine reports that Combs has scored a guest-starring role on “CSI: Miami” as defence attorney Derek Powell.
He was in Manhattan Beach, just outside Los Angeles, this week to shoot his spot on the hit CBS show.
Combs explained to People that he met with CBS executives and told them, “I don’t want to play no musician, I don’t want to play a criminal – none of those stereotypical things. I want to play a lawyer.”
He added that he was happy to be on one of “the biggest shows in the world” and revealed that series star David Caruso took him under his wing on set.
The episode with Diddy will air in February 2009.
Combs is building up an impressive acting resume — he appeared on the big screen in 2002’s “Monster’s Ball” and starred in the critically acclaimed TV remake of “A Raisin in the Sun,” as well as the Broadway revival of the play.
He recently told E! he is hoping to guest-star on “30 Rock.”
Shots were fired at an Atlanta nightclub party—where music stars Usher, Nelly and Sean “Diddy” Combs were in attendance.
The bash, sponsored by Jermaine Dupri, has reportedly left one security guard wounded—reports People magazine.
“I’m sad this incident happened because it interrupted a beautiful and loving party. But I’m happy none of my people or friends got hurt. And the party continues,” said Dupri.
The shots were fired at about 3:30 a.m. at the party after some guests were allegedly double-charged by security guards to enter. According to reports, the guests were escorted outside and that is where the shooting occurred.
The security guard shot in the arm was treated at a hospital and released.

Porter refuses to confirm or deny gossip suggesting an Atlanta, Georgia woman is expecting Diddy’s baby, but admits the reports were a major factor in the couple’s shock July (07) split.
She tells the upcoming October (07) issue of Essence magazine the scandal led her to question whether or not she could trust her boyfriend. She decided she couldn’t, and it was time to move on.
When asked directly if the rumours about Diddy’s infidelity led to the split, Porter says, “Hmm… Well, that definitely was part of it.”
And, despite new reports the couple are planning a reconciliation, Porter
insists she’ll never wed the rap mogul.
She tells the publication, “He’s not ready to get married. When I get
married, I want to stay married.
“I want both parties to be on the same page at the same time, and to leave a certain type of behaviour behind. That’s a commitment I don’t think he’s ready for.” (KL/ESS/GES)

Hip-hop mogul SEAN ‘DIDDY’ COMBS has slammed internet reports suggesting he was seen buying drugs as “patently false”.
The Bad Boy Records boss, 37, was left fuming after an amateur video clip
showing him at a party surfaced online, prompting viewers to suggest the
footage looked like a drug deal.
In the clip, Combs, dressed in a white shirt and sunglasses, is seen dancing with clubbers at Ibiza’s DC10 club and chatting to a tall, blond man.
At one point, the rapper raises two fingers as his companion plays with
something in his hand. Combs is then seen lifting his hand to the side of his face – an action viewers of the YouTube video have compared to a drugs exchange.
But Combs’ lawyer, Benjamin Brafman, insists his client has never had
anything to do with illegal substances.
Brafman says, “Any suggestion he is buying drugs would be patently false. He does not use drugs.” (MT/WNTSU/KL)
