Diddy Picks His P.A.

November 7th, 2007

Were you one of the zillion candidates who sucked up to Diddy in a You Tube video, in hopes of becoming his dutiful personal assistant? Well, the honors went to lawyer Heather Thompson, whom Diddy chose out of three top candidates on Oprah’s show Tuesday.

“It was just a passion, it was the way she articulated herself,” Diddy explained about Thompson. ”I think [she] understood what the job entailed. She had a background that was stellar. It was just the way she came across.”

From attorney to personal assistant? Heather must have a bigger plan up her short sleeve, right?

She is no dummy. She knows that Diddy likes to splurge and that she will be a recipient.

diddy is a joke, and so is HARPO….personal assistant. for what? to wash his dirty draws….why waste a Law Degree on scum like puffy? if this was 1789, HARPO and PUFF would be Slave Owners and Traders ;-}

I think that Diddy needed a personal assistant because of his busy schedule and what better way 2 do that then 2 hire a Lawyer who can help him in with any law situations!! And she is very smart not only is she working with one of the most prestigious people in our community but she is opening doors that she has never explored!! You only live once, this should work out for their good!! Please let’s continue 2 help our community grow!! And Diddy did just that!!

From Law department to Personal Assistant what’s really going on? She do a have plan up her sleeve and I can’t figure it out.I might be mistaking please correct me if I am wrong. If you got a law degree dont you surpoose to work for a law frim office with attoryners and lawyers not a famons personal assistant. That’s low and something is not adding up.

nspk said on November 7th, 2007

Diddy I just want to say watch Heather. She got something plan up her sleeve. Be careful this is comming from your true fan NSPK.

That girl is smart. She’s is going to be making so much bank. and not to mention the gifts she’s going to receive & the people she’s going to meet. And if it doesn’t work out she still has her degree to fall back on. You go girl!

lala said on November 7th, 2007

I give her all the props. Let her do her thang who knows she might turn out better than him.

Hiram Abiff said on November 8th, 2007

its a sad day in america when someone trades in a Law Degree just to wash some balls…….i guess PUFFY is done banging Farnsworth Bentley……..he’s banging Big Girls now……….everyone knows that Personal Assistants are there to fetch water and get banged every now and then ;-{

Birdy said on November 8th, 2007

If all else fails she could learn the buisness and become an Entertainment Lawyer. Lord knows their the ones really making the bank these days.

deenice said on November 12th, 2007

this girl knows exactly what she is doing. why not become a personal assistant for someone like diddy? she’ll be exposed to everything and everybody. I bet she’ll make as much money as a personal assistant than a lawyer. she’ll have everybody wanting to employ her. this girl has been on oprah too. oprah was looking like, yeah, if diddy’s job don’t work out, girl, come over to harpo. she is definately smart. big things poppin’ for her. girl do you, get paid, and have a wonderful life.

pink said on November 20th, 2007

Tonette said on November 28th, 2007

I knew nothing about the job opening.
Hope there is a reality show.
I guess not 4 that job.
Diddy U know that would have been the bomb.
Love U.
Wish I was your baby momma!
4 real.
Can’t wait 4 next reality show.
I am a reality junkie.
Writer’s strike not affecting my shows.
Take Care,
Mr. P. Diddle, Diddle

Smart move sista!!… She has a law degree, now instead of working her way up some corporate latter to make partner at some small time law firm representing white folks, She will be the personal assistant to a media and entertainment mogul!!! Im sure she will make in one year working for diddy, what she would make in 3 years as a lawyer on the streets. Proly a whole lote more! Plus with her lawyer degree im sure diddy will utelize her for way more than washing his drawls!! P.A’s do a whole lote for celebrities if emplayed right, form PR work, management, marketing and now legal matters…not to mention if she plays her cards right the connections she will make up the a$$! Eventually she could atrract celebrities to be clients of hers either as a lawyer or a Personal Assistant!! smart move sista, smart move

Diddy just wanted to be on Opera again because he knows she is the queen of T.V…

Serena said on December 21st, 2007

She better not disagree with him on anything because she might get the boot just like Laurie Ann!

Samisamsam said on December 27th, 2007

she is out of her mind, to work hard to become a lawyer and you choose to become Diddy’s assistant….she must have another plan! There is no way that she’s doin this just to do it…and on top of that Diddy is so unrelaible he’ll probably get into something and fire her like he did Laurie-Anne….good luck honey!

Chi-Town Broker said on March 14th, 2008

She’s smart because we know she’s not a dummy, she’s a lawyer! She’s doing obviusly what she wants to do and she beat out lots of other candidates for the position. Diddy’s smart also because now he has a legal mind behind his scheduling of tasks and endeavors that will undoubtedly protect his interest. They both will benefit and I wish them both all the aspirations they can afford to aspire.
