I am in no way a fan of Sean "Puffy, P.Diddy, Puff Daddy, or any type of puffiness" Combs. So when I saw him and his long-time girlfriend, Kim Porter on the cover of the December issue of Essence I passed it over.
However, I was galvanized into reading the article by my roommate who simply enjoys the extravagance, or what I call sheer "extra-ness," of P. Diddy.
Surprisingly, I am glad that I read it. The writing and interviewing was phenomenal! It has been an extremely long time since I've seen an article that truly captures its subject and their environment while reading as if the audience is in the writer's shoes. It is rare to see a writer not only ask the tough personal questions of one of the most publicized celebrity relationships (after J.Lo and Ben Affleck and on the heels of the Tom and Kate) but also document them in a clear, concise, and story-like manner.
Nevertheless, kudos goes out to Essence senior writer, Jeannine Amber!
