THE FACTS
Diddy spoke to Elle.com on what influenced his relationships with women.

THE SPIN
For years Diddy Puff has been known as a playboy, but as the father of six kids (one adopted) by multiple women some have criticized Diddy and his relationships with women – namely, “Why won’t he marry Kim Porter?”

Well, the man himself spoke openly about past revelations that reveal why he can’t fully “mature” in relationships in an interview with Elle.com:

ELLE: Your dad was shot to death when you were only three. Who taught you how to behave with women?

SC: A couple years ago, my psychologist came to the conclusion that this is one of the big problems I have as far as maturing in a relationship. After my father got killed, my mother said, “I’m never getting married again. I don’t want men around my children.” So I’ve never actually been able to witness a husband and wife’s love. Sometimes when I see it with my friends, I just find myself staring like a child, because I’ve never actually seen it before. It’s one of the sad parts of my life.

ELLE: So what kind of behavior does this bring out in relationships?

SC: When a relationship gets to a certain point, I probably get scared and become a little self-destructive.

ELLE: By self-destructive, do you mean going out with other women?

SC: Yeah.

ELLE: If you get caught cheating red-handed, what’s the best response?

SC: Cry. It might not work, but it at least shows that you care. Goddamn, this is a deep interview. You didn’t ask Will Smith none of this shit!

ELLE: But we’re making such valuable progress! Just tell me: Are the tears real?

SC: Yeah, it hurts me. One of my weaknesses is that I actually have a conscience.

THE FACTS
Shyne will reportedly be deported to Belize.

THE SPIN
It looks like the fight to keep Shyne in the U.S. following his release from prison has failed.

Via Miss Info:

Shyne’s team is fighting to stay in the US where his mother and his grandmother live and where they raised him….but it seems like he’s going to have to continue the fight from Belize. Shyne will be released from Immigration custody but will then be deported to Belize soon. He has Harvard Professor Charles Ogletree advocating on his behalf in concert with his legal team. They’re still urging fans to reach out to Governor Patterson’s office to petition for Shyne’s pardon (click here for Paterson’s email and his address) but deportation is imminent.

Miss Info also asked Shyne’s friend, Hot 97 DJ Angie Martinez on his mental state.

Angie said:

“Shyne is one of the strongest people I know and he’s handling this situation just as I’d expect him to. It must be frustrating for all of his friends and family; he served his time, and keeps getting all these different dates and conflicting information. But he’s a soldier, he’s dealing with it.”

Now, regardless of whether or not Diddy Bop should’ve gone to jail, too, sold Shyne out, or however you feel about it, Shyne has done his time and he is talented. Moreover, he seems to be a lot different coming out of jail then he does in.

THE FACTS
Shyne denies Diddy’s claims that he called him in prison.

THE SPIN
When asked about Shyne’s upcoming release from jail, Diddy told Hot 97 that he phoned the rapper and said he was in good spirits. Well, Diddy talked to someone, but it wasn’t Shyne.

The now 30-year-old rapper and inmate who goes by the name of Moses Levi these days released a statement denying Diddy’s mobile phone carrier.

Via Rolling Stone:

“I want it known that this supposed conversation is a figment of Sean Combs’ imagination. He never spoke with me, he never visited me nor would I ever accept a phone call or visit from him. The only way I would do either of those things would be if he stepped up and did the right thing for the victims of the incident.”

A $130 million civil lawsuit filed by victim Natania Reuben against Combs and Shyne is still pending in Brooklyn, New York.

I’m gonna go on the chances of them getting that much money out of Puffy being as likely as Shyne getting another pretend phone call from his old boss.
