Diddy's BET Awards performance tonight will be at 8:50 PM ET, I am told.
Jordan McCoy's "Just Watch Me" is now on iTunes.
The show opens with the group arriving at the house. Of course, they all go crazy because it's beautiful - one of them calls it "Diddylicious". We cut to night, dinner at the house. We run through some of them talking about their past/present - Dan works for a DJ company, Julius used to be a bag boy at Piggly Wiggly, Donnie is in college, Carlos used to be homeless.
The next day (I guess), Michael Bivins comes in the house and everyone is, of course, happy to see him. He explains that they are now going to go into 5 steps. The first three are training and conditioning, choreography (with Laurie Ann) and vocal coaching (with Ankh Ra). Then, they will be split into groups and will compete against each other. After that, they will be doing a live performance somewhere.
They arrive for training and conditioning at a fitness studio. Their trainer is Amie, who starts with a weigh in. Qwanell, 165. Donnie, 166. Dyshon, 186. Dan, 209. He says that he wants to lose 10-15 pounds more. Michael, 278, wants to be at 220. Amie tells him he'll need to pay attention to his exercises and diet more than the others, but if he wants it... he can do it.
She then has them run around the room single file, then jumping jacks, push ups and a number of other exercises. Brian A. says he's never felt pain like this in his entire life. Dyshon says he's physically drained. He's having a lot of trouble and Amie escorts him out, with him heavily leaning on her. He looks terrible. She gives him a Gatorade like drink and tells someone to call an ambulance. It arrives and he gets in, saying that if he doesn't come back, to tell his mother that he loves her.

From the Los Angeles Times:
Only one awkward moment emerged during Prince's forays into the crowd. He approached the daunting bunch on what could have been dubbed the "hip-hop power couch" � it included Diddy, Death Row Records founder Suge Knight, Erykah Badu and Nas, among others � and tried to hand the microphone to Nas.
The rapper declined to ad-lib, however, simply muttering, "I love Prince," and handing back the hot potato. Prince then tried to work his charm on Badu; she gave up a half-hearted rhyme about sisterhood, but it fizzled out. About half of those seated on the couch then abruptly departed (although Nas and Badu both stayed).
Diddy... sitting next to... Suge Knight? That's more than a little weird. I wouldn't go running with it or anything, of course. They've both been in the same place before. But, I've e-mailed the writer of the story for more details.
Update: I already heard back from Ms. Powers. She said that from her vantage point, they appeared to be sitting a couple of people away from each other. She did not see them converse, however.
I just watched one of the behind the scenes clips. It was part of an MTV News segment. Not much was there... a few quick shots, including Diddy and Mario together. It also featured some of the video from MTV.com where Diddy says Cassie hasn't been dropped He goes onto say that Cassie is going to be a spokesmodel for Sean John Womens ( as mentioned) and that he'll look to tour the U.S. this fall (he's just looking for the right package). He finished with this:
I pride myself on being one of the artists - one of the only artists - that really knows how to party the hardest. I party the hardest and the longest and it's no better place to show off that talent than Las Vegas. Only the strong will survive in Vegas and the weak shall parish and I challenge any recording artist out there - it's a challenge - I don't care who it is. If you think you can really get busy on the partying, let's do it.
Watch below for footage of Ryan Leslie putting together "Sometimes".
Anthony Violante, who works in New Media Marketing at Bad Boy, agreed to write, exclusively for Bad Boy Blog, about his experience attending the Orlando casting call for Making the Band 4. We saw parts of this casting call in the first episode.
Hello everyone! My name is Anthony Violante and I work in the New Media Marketing department (online promo to make it simple) for Bad Boy Entertainment. Patrick had suggested that I share the experience I had attending a Making The Band 4 casting call, so here it goes. On January 23, 2007, I had the privilege of attending the Making The Band 4 casting call here in my hometown of Orlando, Florida.

The Detroit News has more about the white party in Detroit tomorrow. In the article, it says:
Rap impresario Diddy (Sean John Combs), owner of the Sean John clothing line, sends his love to the "D" by way of his new neo-soul group Soul Mafia.
But, this is incorrect. While Soul Mafia is playing, they're not signed to Bad Boy.
There will be some behind the scenes clips from Diddy's recent video shoot on MTV on Saturday, Sunday and Monday and on MTV 2 on Sunday. Times are not being announced. The clips are maybe 5 minutes or so in length, I'm thinking, and I'm not sure if it is going to be the same clip each time or not.
Update: Via JungleCity at BadBoyForever.com, it'll also be shown on MTVU on Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
Zoe performed "Hood Figga" at an Atlanta middle school on the last day of school. Watch it below.
