It looks like LA Times has finally removed the story on the paper's website linking Diddy to Tupac's murder. The LA Times has already publicly apologized for the story, now it appears the paper has finally retracted the story. In a statement on the Times website, they publicly retracted because the article "relied heavily on information that the Times no longer believes to be credible."
MTV.com
"The Times has since concluded that the FBI reports were fabricated and that some of the other sources relied on — including the person Philips previously believed to be the 'confidential source' cited in the FBI reports — do not support major elements of the story," the paper explained in the retraction. Along with retracting the front-page Web story from March 17 and a shorter version that appeared in the actual paper on March 19, the Times also retracted the text of two online chats that Philips participated in on March 18 and March 25, and comments from the Times' Soundboard blog from March 21
It's good The Times finally taken the steps to retract this bogus story.
Sean "Diddy" Combs recently talked to MTV News about the story that appeared in the LA Times. The story linked Combs and Biggie Smalls to Tupac Shakur's death stating both, Combs and Biggie had prior knowledge to the murder. In the first public comments since the story, Combs told MTV News.
"I've been through so much; hip-hop has been through so much; Biggie's, Tupac's [families] have been through so much," Combs told MTV News.
"To rehash the lies and just rumors like that, I didn't understand where that was coming from. I knew that I would never -- me and Biggie would never be involved, or even have any knowledge of that. Because if we have knowledge of something, we the type of people that's gonna warn somebody, we're gonna tell somebody. It just really hurt."
"Just knowing how people in this day and age, what they read online and what they see in the papers, they just take it as fact," Diddy explained. "It's like, come on, I been working so hard to rise above all of this stuff, and to see it now trying to pull me back down.
"[But] I stayed focused," he continued. "I was still. My grandmother told me, 'Be still.' No matter what it feels like, be still. And I was still and then the truth came out the way it was to come out. I didn't jump up and down about it. I let them give the apology and let people go back to the things they need to be focusing on about me, which is the #1 albums I'm dropping with Danity Kane and Day26, #1 fragrances, Janelle Monae, making this black history. And that's what it's about. But it's important to really deal with things however they come at you. And I've always done that my whole life and just always told the truth."
"I don't know how marriage works. If you're raised by a married couple, you see how they interact; their good days, their bad days, how they work through things - you see the love. I wasn't brought up like that and I still don't know to do it. I never saw (my parents') relationship up-close, so every time I've been in a relationship I haven't known what to do and that's really scared me."
Nonetheless that would be understandable. And, plus when you have so many fine looking ladies around, commitment comes a little harder.
The NY Post's Page Six reports Sean "Diddy" Combs is upset with People Magazine. Combs reportedly didn't take to kind to his twins [D'Lila Star and Jessie James] being published in the back of the magazine and J-Lo's twins published on the cover and large layout.
An insider told Page Six..
"It was the last straw for Diddy," a person close to Combs said. "They gave him lousy placement [in the Feb. 12, 2007] issue when Kim [Porter] had his twins, D'Lila Star and Jessie James."
A Combs' rep denied the article stating, "Sean loves People magazine and all the wonderful coverage they have given him over the years."
The LA Times newspaper has issued Sean Combs an apology. That after the paper published forged documents linking Combs to Tupac Shakur's murder. The articles writer, Chuck Phillips, and Times editor, Russ Stanton apology appeared on the paper's front page.
Philips wrote he was "sorry" and admitted: "In relying on documents that I now believe were fake, I failed to do my job."
Meanwhile, editor Russ Stanton said: "We published this story with the sincere belief that the documents were genuine, but our good intentions are beside the point."
Wow! This is a interesting story, The Smoking Gun published concerning the Tupac-Diddy murder link. According TSG, the information the LA Times story was based off of were fabricated FBI documents. The source of the LA Times story, federal convict, James Sabatino, supplied the Times with false statements and forged documents.
It was only a week ago the paper published, "FBI records recently obtained by The Times." Well only if we knew those documents were forged, and the story was trash from the beginning. Maybe, the well-paid journalist at the Times next time will be more thorough when they receive any sensitive documents or records.
It appears Sean Combs has settled a suit filed by a partygoer out of court. Gerard Rechnitzer alleges Combs assaulted him at a post-Oscar party, previously LA District Attorney declined to file charges against Combs.
After Sean Combs and Jimmy Rosemond rejected the story that linked them both to Tupac Shakur's death. LA Times writer, Chuck Phillips defended his published story on Tupac/Bad Boy link.
From Rolling Stone... The writer of the Los Angeles Times exposé on a 1994 Tupac Shakur shooting has defended the article despite denials by both Sean “Diddy” Combs and James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond. In a live chat on the Los Angeles Times website, Chuck Phillips said he didn’t seek out the story -- which alleged two Bad Boy Records associates were behind the ‘94 robbery and shooting of Shakur -- but that he “stumbled on it last year after learning the street names of the assailants.”
MTV News is reporting, Bad Boy Entertainment and it's CEO Sean "Diddy" Combs is among listed parties of an $130 million dollar civil suit. Combs recently completed his deposition on the December 1999 NYC shooting. The judge must still decide rather the suit will go to trial and which parties will then follow.
From MTV News, After nearly two years, Sean "Diddy" Combs completed his deposition last week in the $130 million civil lawsuit stemming from the 1999 Club New York shooting that sent the Bad Boy CEO's former protégé, Shyne, to prison, MTV News has learned.According to Shyne's legal counsel, Oscar Michelen, Diddy completed his deposition on Wednesday, which now puts the wheels in motion for a trial date to be set, possibly as soon as early 2009. Diddy's busy schedule, along with litigation from the charges against Shyne, resulted in the hip-hop mogul's deposition being stretched out over time. Bad Boy employee Derek Ferguson is the next and last party scheduled for deposition, Michelen said.
Combs' lawyers responded to the story telling MTV News.
"Mr. Combs was acquitted by a jury of all charges related to this 1999 incident and we are confident that he will prevail in this civil lawsuit," an e-mail sent to MTV News read.
Sean "Diddy" Combs and manager Jimmy "Henchman" Rosemond issued quick and angry denials about an L.A. Times report released Monday morning claiming they were behind the 1994 shooting of Tupac Shakur at Quad Recording Studios in Times Square.
"This story is beyond ridiculous and is completely false," Diddy said in a statement Monday. "Neither Biggie [Smalls, the rapper at the center of Combs' Bad Boy Productions company] nor I had any knowledge of any attack before, during, or after it happened. It is a complete lie to suggest that there was any involvement by Biggie or myself. I am shocked that the Los Angeles Times would be so irresponsible as to publish such a baseless and completely untrue story."
Rosemond, now CEO of Czar Entertainment, said in a statement, "in the past 14 years, I have not even been questioned by law enforcement with regard to the assault of Tupac Shakur, let alone brought up on charges."
The Los Angeles Times reports an apparent connection between Sean Combs and Tupac Shakur's death. The Times goes in-depth of the murder of Shakur.. Here is an excerpt
Now, newly discovered information, including interviews with people who were at the studio that night, lends credence to Shakur's insistence that associates of rap impresario Sean "Diddy" Combs were behind the assault. Their alleged motives: to punish Shakur for disrespecting them and rejecting their business overtures and, not incidentally, to curry favor with Combs.
The information focuses on two New York hip-hop figures -- talent manager James "Jimmy Henchman" Rosemond and promoter James Sabatino, who is now in prison for unrelated crimes.
FBI records obtained recently by The Times say that a confidential informant told authorities in 2002 that Rosemond and Sabatino "set up the rapper Tupac Shakur to get shot at Quad Studios." The informant said Sabatino had told him that Shakur "had to be dealt with."
The records -- summaries of FBI interviews with the informant conducted in July and December 2002 -- provide details of how Shakur was lured to the studio and ambushed. Others with knowledge of the incident corroborated the informant's account in interviews with The Times and gave additional details.
One would think, any information from informants has to be called into question.. Especially with the unknown backgrounds of the individuals.. We'll follow it for any further developments.
What more can Diddy get himself into? The entrepreneur and Bad Boy CEO is looking to expand his business portfolio into the chauffeur business, transporting A-list celebrities from after parties and clubs.. Now, I am sure Diddy will have pimped out rides but really? Do A-list celebrities really need this? They already have like millions of dollars and people to do these things.. Although, I do appalled Diddy's efforts to keep the good people like Paris Hilton outta jail!
From US Magazine The mogul plans to launch a car service for A-listers too tipsy to drive after a night out, Us Weekly reports in its latest issue, on newsstands now. "After partnering with Ciroc vodka, he wants to make sure everyone's partying responsibly," his rep tells Us. One campaign goal? "Making sure nobody gets arrested!" Combs, the father of twins, says.

Gerard got knocked into the taxi." Rechnitzer, 27, is seeking unspecified damages in the suit.

A pal said: "Kim is mum to three of his children and he is gutted."So far nothing has worked to get her back and he's trying to come up with a new plan."
In an recent interview with OK! Magazine, Kim Porter, the former girlfriend of hip-hop mogul Diddy. Recently, discussed her 10-year relationship with the entertainer that recently ended. BallerStatus and Daily News offers excerpts from the interview.Porter explains she felt Combs and herself were not on the same page.
"I'd been in an on-again, off-again relationship with Mr. Combs for about 10 years, and it came to a point where it was time for me to move on with my life," Porter told the magazine. "I had invested a lot of time in that relationship, and it wasn't going where it should have been going. So it was time to [end it]. In a relationship, it's important that the people are on the same page at the same time. And we weren't on the same page."
She certainly doesn't believe any man is 100% faithful.
"I will never sit here and say that Puffy -- or any man -- is 100 percent faithful," she explained.
Porter told the magazine both her and Combs are just friends, Sienna Miller wasn't the cause of the split.. And, she went on to say, Puffy's relationship with Jennifer Lopez was an embrassment.
"They're just friends," Porter tells the mag. "That wasn't the cause [of the split]." On J-LO and Puffy... "I never thought it was real. It was an embarrassment."

Diddy reportedly stopped partying and started panicking, according to the paper.
One partygoer told the Mirror: "Diddy did not see the funny side at first. He had no idea it was a practical joke. He thought it was stolen. He had his flunkies on a wild goose chase looking all over the place for his car - it's his baby."
The Mirror spy said: "Diddy and his minders were stressing out until someone piped up that they had seen Kimberly running off giggling with the keys and a friend in tow."

I love the chemistry, the idea bringing two people from different places with different experiences and seeing what they end up creating."
Although, nothing has been announced, nor expected maybe an future Diddy w/Natasha single? Who knows?
It appears the people of the United States are more interested in serving Diddy, than question potential leaders of the free world. The story comes from fishbowlNY, who reports the Diddy's call for an personal assistant has more submissions than CNN's Democratic debates. Combs' video application has garnered over 10k submissions, while the CNN debate only had 2,989 video submissions. Thats a margin of 3 to 1.

Hip-hop Web site Sohh.com reports Combs created the music video as a response to Porter's appearance on CNN discussing their breakup. "This is how he's coming back," the site says.

I'm sure that will put a few tears in somebody's eyes..

NY Post Page Six reports, Diddy's child support bill could substantially go up. WAY UP. As Combs' babies momma, Kim Porter could be asking for an hefty child support. Porter the mother of three of Combs' children - Christian, 10, and 7-month-old twins D'Lila Star and Jesse James. Could receive over $100k monthly from Combs, the celebrity divorce lawyer Raoul Felder told Page Six.
"With Misa Hylton-Brim receiving approximately $30,000 a month, there is no reason that Ms. Porter shouldn't be able to get close to $100,000 or more per month in child support. That amount accounts for Porter having three children with Combs and inflation in the years since Misa received the ruling in her case."
In one year, Porter, may collect over 1.2 million in support... Now, thats a lot of money... But, I guess its a small piece of Diddy's estimated fortune over 340 million.
According to a tipster, Danity Kane has hit a rough note. With the group down to three girls from the original five, Dawn, Shannon, and Aundrea remaining -- minus Aubrey O'day and D. Woods. On Wednesday, reports first surfaced from TMZ.com, where on video Aubrey didn't have much to say about Puffy (while not looking like a happy employee, either), and TMZ reports:
"she [Aubrey O'Day] called out Diddy for practically ditching the band and suspiciously wouldn't deny rumors that she was joining up with the Pussycat Dolls." According to TMZ.com
It is also being rumored, Aubrey has replaced Asia from the Pussycat Dolls. And, the new addition to the Dolls is already in studio recording for the next release.
On D. Woods departure it's being rumored, she's pursuing a solo career.
IF it's true, it's hard to imagine Diddy put so much into Danity Kane. With the first album success. Now to only let two of the most popular members to depart. More to come.

The group president of Estee Lauder, Danny Fortson recently discussed with The Independent, Sean "Diddy" Combs mainstream presence:
"He's a unique business. He's a celebrity. He's a brand. He's a cultural movement. What I mean by that is that anyone under 35 years old listens to R&B and hip-hop music. Whether he is the most talented musician or not, he is at the epicentre of the creation of that world. Young people view him as a lifestyle."
He continued: "In a funny sort of way, he's the hip-hop Ralph Lauren. Because many, many years ago, Ralph Lauren created a brand and a lifestyle that people sort of aspired to be part of. [P Diddy] is modern-day aspiration."
As previous reported: Sean 'Diddy' Combs and actress SIENNA MILLER, were spotted together after the Princess Diana tribute concert at an London area club and restaurant. The two had a private dinner with a ring of bodyguards surrounding their table. The two's outing, may of been the last straw for Diddy's girlfriend and mother of three kids, Kim Porter. Porter, who abruptly ended her and Combs relationship the following day... Though, this isn't Diddy's first night out with SIENNA Miller, TMZ.com caught Combs leaving Miller's hotel in early one morning. More Diddy/SIENNA MILLER Speculation: Dawn Richard of Danity Kane, however, speculates there's little behind the relationship of Combs and SIENNA MILLER. Richard said after an after-party for the Live Earth concert, "I think he is trying to get into the acting business, so I think it is more -- Diddy is very smart. I think meeting with Sienna Miller may not have been what people thought it was. I think he was probably trying to meet and get ahead. That is what he does." Richard, continues siding with Porter, too "But people take it there. He isn't married, and he is a playboy.... But Kim [Porter] is probably tired of the media making it so big. It’s hard when you have four kids."
Diddy to the UK? Sean "[P] Diddy" Combs is reportedly on the market for a new home in London. This comes days after, Kim Porter, Combs' ex-girlfriend ended their relationship and relocated in Los Angeles from New York. Combs is speculated to be linked with UK actress SIENNA MILLER. Combs' recently said of London, "I'm looking to buy a place in London at the moment. I just love this city, and I seem to be spending so much time here that it seems like the logical thing to do. Ideally I'd like to live in Soho, although I guess it might be a little noisy."
A Raisin' in the Sun on Hold till February: As posted in December, Diddy started filming the television movie "A Raisin' In the Sun," also a Broadway production play. Combs starred and received acclaim in he's Broadway performance. The New York Post now reports, ABC may air the film as early as February 2008, as the post-production process is currently underway.
Sean "Diddy" Combs and auto racing phenom Lewis Hamilton [Fav. of Mine], F1 Driver, were hanging at Diddy's bash in central London. Combs' lavish launch for his Sean John Unforgivable fragrance on Monday, attracted celebrities to help celebrate the debut of Unforgivable. Its reported, Combs announced that he is thinking seriously about joining the F1 circuit by buying a team. Though Diddy is quite weathly, I doubt he'd outright buy or join F1. Maybe, partner considering operarting a Forumula One team is estimated to be $66 million to $400 million investement. That would be a considerable sum of money to join the world's most expensive sport and one of the largest television audience... Although, good place to reach a new market of high-end consumers...
As reported in May, Diddy performed at the 10th anniversary tribute to Princess Diana. If you missed it, its available on YouTube and below. Diddy performs "I'll Be Missing You," an original tribute to the Notorious B.I.G, who also died 10 years ago.
Diddy among the worst renditions at #2 and #96: The website retroCRUSH, a pop culture site. Has ranked the worst renditions from 100 to 1. Sean "Puffy" Combs comes in at the top and bottomer of the list. Diddy's remake of Jimmy Page's of Led Zeppelin [a fav. of mine] classic "KASHIMIR" ranked in at #96. While Diddy's remake of the Police's hit "Every Breath You Take" was among the worst at second. More at retroCRUSH, including full list. I don't fully agree with the list, those two remakes are some of my favorite Puffy songs..
In published reports, Sean "Diddy" Combs is accused of assaulting, now former Making the Band choreographer Laurie Ann Gibson. Combs representatives, insist her claims are "false" and Combs' lawyer Benjamin Brafman tells the New York Daily News, "This is just another example of a false accusation by someone trying to take advantage of Sean's success and celebrity status." The alleged incident occurred with Diddy and celebrity judge Michael Bivins during the April 25 filming of the MTV show, Making the Band 4. The two supposedly yelled at Gibson, while Bivins allegedly grabbed her, Combs allegedly threatened to throw a chair at Gibson.

"These documents paint a picture of a surveillance program that was broad, clumsy, and often unlawful," said Donna Lieberman, NYCLU Executive Director. "The NYPD failed to differentiate between unlawful behavior and behavior that is not only lawful but should in fact be cherished and protected. Today the public can finally bear witness to that failure." From:AllHipHop.com

Diddy buys the twins some bling. The fashion/mogul's kids, Jesse James and D'lila Star, were born in December to Combs and girlfriend Kim Porter. The multimillionaire dropped some dough for some bling. Combs, says....
"You start buying the gifts like the earrings and the necklaces and the bracelets... I bought it for them for now. They're about to get their ears pierced, maybe, in, like, a couple of months - they have to at least be, like, a year. I wanna wait for their first birthday but I already bought the stuff. "They have little diamond necklaces, really cute things... You'd be amazed the things they have... I'm a real proud dad; you've gotta go looking for the stuff."

Diddy went to the airwaves on New York's Hot 97 to dismiss the hoax.
"She was playing around with y'all," Diddy telling Hot 97. "That girl ain't even pregnant. I don't get down like that." "You telling these people these crazing things in the morning? They can't believe what y'all say...Check this out, she's not pregnant, I've never dealt with that girl, I never even looked at her for more than ten minutes... I just called to let you know you can move onto somebody else's stuff."

With the wave of highly-anticipated albums that dropped in '06, there's really only one West Coast release that people are already checking for in 2007 and that, of course, is Detox.
...as a release date has reportedly been set for September 25th. According to hnnlive.com, the lead single is set to drop in late spring, with the first video premiering in June.
Hnnlive.com also reported that Detox is said to have a featured guest on every track, and that there's a possibility that Scott Storch will act as a co-producer for the album; if that is indeed the case, I'm pretty sure it won't do much to curb the rumors that Storch frequently acts as a ghost producer for the good doctor. Bishop Lamont and Eminem will be included in the guest roster, and it's rumored that Lloyd Banks, Snoop, Jay Z, Diddy and The Game will also make appearances.

The basket included two of every item for Diddy's kiddies, and consisted of frog slippers, hand-embroidered clothing sets, musical teddy bears, pink cherry shoes, chenille pillows, mobiles, and leather diaper bags which retail for 340 each dollars.
Our spies say the hip-hop fashion impresario is in secret negotiations to sell exclusive photos of his bouncing bundles of joy, D'Lila Star and Jessie James - who were born at Mount Sinai hospital here on Thursday - to a "major magazine" for an equally major sum.
The New York Post reports, the Sean John flagship store on fifth avenue in NY. Was slow at pulling the Sean John dog fur jacket thats been questioned, in addition th retailer mislabeled the fur as "faux."
the $280 snorkel coats were still on display in the windows and on the racks at his Fifth Avenue flagship. And the coats were still erroneously labeled as made with raccoon fur - not that of the strange-looking dog. Macy's did pull the coats from its stores and Web site. The retailer had compounded the controversy by erroneously tagging the coats as containing "faux" fur. Even Combs' store employees were confused, first saying the fur was coyote, then rabbit. The fur fight "shows the complex ways in which consumers can be duped," said Michael Markarian, executive director of the Humane Society of the United States.
Only later the SJ Jockets were later pulled from the racks.
Only after Post inquires - and following a reporter's purchase of a dog-fur coat yesterday afternoon - did a saleswoman finally pull the coats from a rack, citing a "problem" with them. The jackets, part of Combs' fall line for men and women, came in black, brown or cream, with the women's versions rendered in leather.

Update from the previous post. Looks like the largest retailer of Sean John apparel, Macy's Department stores has pulled the jacket in question, as reported by the Dallas Morning News.
Orlando Veras, a spokesman at Macy's, a division of Federated Department Stores Inc., confirmed Friday that the retailer had removed the jackets, releasing a statement saying that it has a "long-standing policy against the selling of any dog or cat fur." He continued, "This policy is clearly communicated to all suppliers." The Sean John jackets -- one a snorkel style, the other a classic version -- had been labeled "raccoon fur," but were advertised as faux fur, Pacelle said.
The Bad Boy CEO, Sean Combs released a statement regarding the jacket.
In a statement by Sean "Diddy" Combs released by his publicist Hampton Carney, the designer said: "I was completely unaware of the nature of this material, but as soon as we were alerted, the garments were pulled off the Macy's floor and Web site. I have instructed our outerwear licensee to cease the production of any garments using this material immediately."
Update from the previous post, Diddy has announced on his MySpace blog the names of both twins..

The HSUS bought the article, only to find the labels stated the jacket was made from "genuine raccoon fur".
Nonetheless, if true the retailer MACY's will remove the merchandise as part of store policy.
