No, not Prince, but Prince Harry and Prince William. He had this to say:
"They were just appreciative that I came. They loved the performance and they told me how they were fans and wondered how I worked so much. It was a great conversation."
Diddy came out, alone in front of the big screen (but was joined by a choir to his sides and a string orchestra on a separate stage), in a white suit with a black tie to perform "I'll Be Missing You". It was very similar to the version performed for the Wal-Mart Soundcheck, except for the comments related to Princess Diana, of course. Perfect song for the event, of course, and the crowd was into it, of course.
After it was over, one of the co-host's said she "didn't expect Diddy to be that good." lol. She said that usually his performances in the U.K. are more in tune with "his roots". I didn't hear her say anything like that about any of the other performers, so that was a wee bit surprising.
Diddy did a quick backstage interview before his performance where he talked about Princess Diana, saying that she was the definition of a Princess in his eyes. On how he got involved, he said that the Princes called his publicist and he was glad to accept. He said that this is their country (the U.K.), they're royalty in this country and he's royalty in his country. heh
Finally, as an aside, Cassie came on the big screen behind the performers during Kanye West's set, while he was performing "Stronger".
Entertainmentwise.com reports that Diddy will perform "I'll Be Missing You" at today's Concert For Diana. In the article, Diddy is also quoted as saying "I can relate because of Biggie. I'm gonna feel real good remembering him and Di."
It's on VH1 and I've been watching it. An hour in, no Diddy, yet. Once he performs, I'll have my reactions up.
According to SOHH.com, VH1 will air Concert For Diana, a tribute concert to the late Princess Diana. Diddy is performing. It'll be on from 11 AM to 5 PM and they will also offer a live stream on their site. NBC will broadcast concert highlights from 9 PM to 11 PM, as well.
