sean combs, also known as puffy mcpiddy diddy anounced at the academy awards that he will be dropping his music career to focus on the one thing he doesnt have... an oscar.
now i for one, dont think that his man has accomplished that much in the music industry, so saying its the one thing that has escaped him is a bit of an overstatement. also, why oh why do musicians feel they can cross over to becoming actors? im kinda fed up of it. this guy has released some mediocre records, and attached himself to some big names. hes not particualry talented, i cant think of any of his songs off the top of my head, i mean why should he make a good actor?
also doesnt he have enough money already? surely every time he changes his name he gets something new to market. hes just a money digger, looking to cash in on something new.
lets look at some of his contemporaries.
eminem: stared in 8mile. not exactly an acting stretch as it was ...well about him. its semi-autobiographical, and he plays .....shock..........a rapper. i dont think it was ever going to be too hard to him to get into that mindset.
50 cent: started in get rich or die trying (also i might point out this gusy name is curtis...why on earth anyone would want to call themselves by a monitary value is beyond me. i mean if i turned up and told you, i was now called 20 pence you would laugh!). anyway. he stated in get rich or die trying and played......shock (again) a rapper! and a thuggish one at that, again not a stretch of the imagination there.
ludicrous: plays essentially 'a player' in 2 fast 2 furious
jar rule: playsa racer fro2 minutes in the fast and the furious
i mean these are not particulary good examples of acting. sure 8 mile money, and ultimately i think thats what this is about. but to state that your getting into acting and expect to get an oscar is just...well..... ludicrous! (why did that word come to mind?)
