American music mogul P Diddy spotted in the BVI

American rapper and music mogul Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs has been sighted in the British Virgin Islands.

The 52-year-old was captured on amateur video footage arriving through the Terrance B Lettsome International Airport on Beef Island.

He was spotted with a small entourage.

“I’m here live in the flesh,” the rapper was heard saying when greeted by a local.

It is not clear when Combs arrived or what is the purpose of his visit to the territory.

Combs, also known as ‘Puffy’, is not only a rapper. He is also a record producer, actor, clothing designer and businessman/investor who discovered entertainers such as Christopher Wallace; more commonly known as The Notorious B.I.G.

According to Forbes Magazine, Combs is the 14th highest-paid entertainer in the world. He is said to have a net worth of $90 million.

    You know, in Bermuda the media have an unwritten rule that when “celebrities” go there. they are left completely alone. Nobody takes pictures of them. Just before they leave, they have a quick interview with the media to say what a nice time they’ve had and that’s that. No wonder their GDP is 3 times ours. Respect people’s privacy and they will want to come here.

      That is not a bad idea but we should also note that Bermuda has a population 2 x ours – so it’s not quite an apples for apples comparrison.

        Clearly that’s untrue since it is being reported here.
        In Bermuda there would be nothing written before they leave.
        They respect privacy whereas we are rude and invade their privacy the minute they land and post on sites like this.

      Its is so interesting how BVI is encouraged to adopt other country’s practises except those where work permits are concerned (:-)

      To add to that. They destroying the mountain to do what? Up to now they cant get the land fill under control. In other areas of the world you cant find the land fills because there is grass growing on top. Please let’s get it together B.V.I.

    So what is so important about this? The guy is coming to spend vacation and that’s big news. I saw three guys, three women and three children coming from other Caribbean islands here for vacation. Why haven’t I seen that on the news?
