Diddy suit threw out: A Manhattan
Supreme Court threw out a suit filed by former Bad Boy
Entertainment President Kirk Burrowes against CEO Sean
"Diddy" Combs.
Burrowes claimed Combs, the music/fashion
mogul, attacked him in an attempt to get him to give up
his stake in Bad Boy Entertainment.
A Combs' attorney called the suit "a complete
fabrication." A New York appeals-court agreed. The
judges found that the allegations, dating to 1996, are
too old for the case to go forward.
To the Gridiron: The "Diddy" will be
among several hip-hop stars including, Snoop Dog, Nelly,
Trick Daddy and others at Dolphin stadium Saturday. The
stars will coach youth-football teams, part of the
inaugural Battle of the Stars Youth Football Classic.
Each team representing cities across the country, from
Los Angeles, St. Louis, New York, Atlanta and Miami.
Diddy's Mount Vernon Razorbacks will face Snoop
Dogg's All-Stars from Los Angeles. Nelly's St. Louis
All-Stars will take on Trick Daddy's Overtown Rattlers
of Miami, Tone of the Trackmasters will lead the Staten
Island Hurricanes against Atlanta's Pacman Titans,
coaches by Tennessee Titans 1st round draft pick, Pacman
Jones.
