Diddy forced to give up private jet
Hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs will now fly on commercial airlines instead of private jets because of soaring fuel prices.
The music star complained about the "too high" price of fuel and pleaded for free oil from his "Saudi Arabia brothers and sisters" in a YouTube video.
He said he is now flying on commercial airlines instead of private jets, which he said had previously cost him 200,000 US dollars and up for a round trip between New York and Los Angeles.
He said: "I'm actually flying commercial. That is how high gas prices are. ... Tell whoever the next president is we need to bring gas prices down."
Diddy - known for chart hits like I'll Be Missing You and Come To Me - made this comment before walking onto an airplane, sitting in a first class seat and flashing his boarding pass to the camera.
