Diddy gives his 17-year-old son Justin a $390,000 limo after he makes the honor roll.


Diddy pays big for good grades -- to the tune of a $390,000 Mercedes Maybach limousine.

"Justin has turned himself around and is now an honors student, which he wasn't before, so I wanted to treat him," Diddy said. "It's a collector's car so maybe he will use it for special occasions like on a first date, but like all my kids, he prefers the simpler things [more] than the expensive things. Simple tastes."

This isn’t the first big gift Diddy has given his son. When Justin turned 16, he got another Mercedes Maybach worth over $300,000.

Diddy is also a father to 12-year-old Christian, twin girls D’Lila Star and Jessie James, 4, daughter Chance, 4, and stepson Quincy, 19.

The rap mogul defended his big gifts during an interview with Martin Bashir.

"The whole thing about giving a Maybach to my son, that's really like a racist question. You don't ask white people what they buy their kids," Diddy said. "And they buy them Porsches and convertible Bentleys, and it ain't no question. It's really a racist question and put things back in perspective with money and the way that people still look at you. And I'm not saying that consciously [Bashir's] a racist. But he probably don't even realize that he would not ask Steve Jobs that. He would be like Steve Jobs has that money, and that's the gift his kid is supposed to get."

Tracy Morgan’s Family Found Out About His Kidney Transplant On The Interweb



Imagine finding out your brother had life-threatening surgery while you are trying to get your Twilight gossip on. According to a RadarOnline interview with his brother and mother, Tracy Morgan never told his family about his kidney transplant…they had to read about it on the internet. “I’ve been with him at his home, and he didn’t let me know anything,” James Morgan claims. “It was his choice, but he could have got me checked to see if I was compatible. If he would have asked, of course I would have done it. He’s my brother.” We’re not saying you have to tell your family everything, but if you’re going to have someone else’s organ put in your body, maybe shoot them an email?


Even Tracy’s mother found out about her son’s transplant from the gossip sites before the 30 Rock star would confirm he had undergone the operation. “He didn’t tell me about anything,” Tracy’s mother Alice Warden says. “We never discussed it. He didn’t bring it up to me. Someone came and told me they saw it on the Internet, so I was just as shocked.” As if that wasn’t strange enough, apparently the family has never heard ofTanisha Hall, Morgan’s donor and ex-girlfriend whom the actor thanked on the SAG red carpet. “God bless her, that’s all I can say about that. She must really have a genuine love for him, even though they’re not together anymore,” James says. As if their annual reunion wasn’t awkward enough, now the family newsletter has basically be replaced by TheFABLife. Not that we mind it, but still: communication, people!
