Thanks Frederic...great video of a historic day!

P Diddy's choice in what to spend serious cash on is a bit odd. First, he video blogs about how he flies coach on American Airlines (even Afghan refugees shouldn't be subject to that kind of horror) due to the cost of private planes, but then is willing to spend $750,000 for a Bond audition tape. Now Vogue - which we read religiously - is reporting that the mogul is not willing to shell out the fifty grand or so that it will take to attend the Inauguration on January 20th. An insider reveals:

"It's hilarious, Sean Combs is trying to get four tickets. He's acting like it's a party at Bungalow 8, like they should just let him in. He's too cheap to pay and thinks he can just show up."

Fifty grand...what is that, like two Sean John jackets? Come on Diddy, this is a once in a lifetime event.
