Diddy: Lower oil prices so I can fly on private jet
LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Fuel prices have grounded an unexpected frequent-flyer: Diddy.
Sean "Diddy" Combs complained about the "... too high" price of gas and pleaded for free oil from his "Saudi Arabia brothers and sisters" in a YouTube video posted Wednesday.
The hip-hop mogul said he is now flying on commercial airlines instead of in private jets, which Combs said had previously cost him $200,000 and up for a roundtrip between New York and Los Angeles.
"I'm actually flying commercial," Diddy said before walking onto an airplane, sitting in a first-class seat and flashing his boarding pass to the camera. "That's how high gas prices are. I'm at the gate right now. This is really happening, proof gas prices are too high. Tell whoever the next president is we need to bring gas prices down."
---------
1. This statement was made in a YouTube video. So this was not some off-the-cuff statement made on the way into a club. Diddy went to the trouble of recording a video.
2. The video in question was posted on the internet - not sent to his "Saudi Arabia brothers and sisters," maybe through their own news networks.
3. His "Saudi Arabia brothers and sisters" apparently don't need to be referred to as being from Saudi Arabia, rather, their country shall identify them. I might appeal to my Scotland brothers and sisters to stop making haggis.
4. I haven't seen the YouTube video in question, but I'm curious if the statement "I'm actually flying commercial," which is true, apparently that he is flying commercial.
5. Proof that gas prices are too high is him holding a boarding pass for a first-class seat.
6. "Whoever the next president is..." Not tell John McCain or Barack Obama. We need to get gas prices down because Diddy is flying first class. I'm sold. It's not because it costs $65 to fill up a gas tank, it's because Diddy can't spend $200,000 for his private jet - and Saudi Arabia can help. All of them.
