I think this shit is bogus. I don't think that diddy or michael bivins would do anything of that nature. Why would she say something like that that isn't true. She's going to tarnish two peoples lives over false accusations.
ReplyDeleteI agree, this is some made up sh*t.. Why would she wait soo long, anyways?
ReplyDeleteSurprise! Diddy is not an angel and I do believe those accusations. He is such an asshole and it is about time that the world know!
ReplyDeletei dont think michael bivins would do something like that but diddy would!! hes an ass!
ReplyDeletei agree with laurie ann because diddy is crazy. i dont believe it about michael though but u never know what go on behind closed doors.
ReplyDeletei think he did do it he's an asshole diddy thinks he's the only mothafuck that don't make mistakes.
ReplyDeletei don't think he or micheal bivins assaulted her but Diddy probably disrespected her....i think Diddy has it in his mind that because of who he is and the money he has , he can talk and treat people how ever he wants and someone should remind him that he can't.....
ReplyDeleteThese allegations are def. bogus..
ReplyDeleteEveryone is after Diddy!!!
I think that he did assault her. I mean look at his track record. And I beleive any man who disrespects a woman the way he does probably is capable of assaulting them. Diddy is an a** hole and who would even be bothered with him if he didn't have any money???
ReplyDeleteDiddy acts gay!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope that firing Lauri Ann Gibson is not true, but if it is, I'm sure she will be appreciated somewhere else in her career. Diddy, I love you, but I have to agree with other comments, that someone needs to stand up to you and let you know that people are human beings, not toys. And if you disrespect a woman like that, I have to rethink if I want to continue to watch your program. Just remember that what goes around comes around and God doesn't like ugly.
ReplyDeletei think this is true. it's going to air next week, after he told her to get the eff out, you can hear them arguing. i think diddy would, but michael bivins? looks can be deceiving.
ReplyDeleteTHAT EPISODE COMES ON NEXT MONDAY AT 10:00 WE WILL SEE WAT HAPPENED
ReplyDeleteall you haters can screw yourselfs..
ReplyDeleteI believe that Diddy did assault her not physically, but emotionally. One thing for sure is that he is the one that always disrespects her when she is trying to talk. He really acts as if he is the only person that can say something. I hope it is resolve, because she really a good assess to the show.
ReplyDeleteI THINK DIDDY IS SEXIST!!! LAURIE ANN GIBSON MADE THAT SHOW ENTERTAINING, AND IN MY OPINION DIDDY DIDN'T WANT TO SHARE THE SPOTLIGHT! I'M NOT WATCHING THAT CRAP ANYMORE!!!
ReplyDeleteif boom kat's gone, so am i!!
ReplyDeleteomg! i agree about diddy being the one who disrespects her....laurie ann has been nothing but what he's asked, and after watching that episode today i wouldn't doubt he placed his hands on her
ReplyDeleteMAYBE DIDDY WAS A LITTLE UPSET BECAUSE OF HIS TOOTHACHE. IF IT BOTHERS HIM THAT BAD HE NEEDS TO PULL THOSE 2 BUCK TEETH OUT. DON'T TAKE IT OUT ON OTHER PEOPLE. JUST TAKE YOUR ASS TO THE DENTIST.
ReplyDeleteDiddy handle your business, and make a great band. I'm glad you got rid of her, her time was up a long time ago. I don't care what people write they know her accusations are false. Just know your true fans will pray for you and michael bivins. DO YO THANG DIDDY!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuing is not always the answer. I can see why both sides were sick of each other. But, Diddy was her boss, and she can't change things up without his approval. She probably needed to depart from this situation anyway, and this is how it had to happen. I still love ya Diddy. It's inspiring to see what you have built from nothing. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteYes we all know diddy can be over the top. Them walking all five boroughs or walking to get cheescake is just trying to boost his ego. I saw the episode when everything started with him and Laurie Ann. Just like in other episodes this season and before she shows too much feeling for who she likes. She really was trippin that day when he kicked her out and supposedly threw the chair at her. She knew she was supposed to teach them in a longer period of time. She was being overly rude and also when questioned about why she didn't teach them over the weekend she did not have an answer. This ultimately led to two things fist the one guy quit think his name was jonathan. She referred to him as a monkey which was totally disrespectful. Second it led to her having to leave because as she said when she walked out earlier on the same show "there wouldn't be a show without her". I personally don't know what happened to her but I will say as tough as diddy is everybody knows what to expect from him. No one is forcing anyone to follow what he says and do what he wants them to do so everyone needs to stop hatin'. Yea it may be messed up but if u don't want to do it you don't have to. As for Laurie Ann I think she really did get besides herself. She had them working so hard in that short period of time that poor julius hurt himself. I honestly never heard of her before making the band and from what I have seen I don't think she's that great anyway. She was in that movie Honey but for a brief moment and most people don't remember it. So therefore Diddy is really the one that gave her chance. Regardless of whether he threatened to throw a chair at her he didn't. She definetly was not acting like the person she did on previous Making the Bands and I'm sure this disappointed a lot of fans.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe that s%#t. I watch the show and Laurie Ann is just letting her head get way too big!!! Since she been f%&#in witt Diddy the last few making the band seasons she been gettin cockier and cockier. She tried to act like it was her show and got clowned and tried to get loud to try and cover it up. Diddy should have been got rid of herass!!! She got them men doing them gay ass dance steps!!!
ReplyDeletethat is so ture he ain`t not thing but a women beater and a women hater they should have lock him under the jail the 1st chance they got
ReplyDeleteShe should be blacklisted from all entertainment since she wanna be a bitch. shit her ass just forgot who show it was and who was paying her salary. Someone should tell her that it was Diddy's Making the Band not Laurie Ann Band but I guess she knows now especially when she loses this trump up case.
ReplyDeleteWell nwayz diddy thinks because he has all this money in the world he could do whateve the f**** he want's and it ain't like that someone need's to straight his a** out. Fucking stupid a** how is he going to tell someone to loose weight.That guy looks perfectly find how he is, He has a bomb a** voice. If diddy came down to my hood which is the Pj's he won't even make it out alive.Stupid a**
ReplyDeleteWanna talk about big heads, let's talk about Puffy. Yep, I watch the show, but it pisses me off when Puffy walks in the room and everyone stands up as if he is a damn king. He's just another brother who caught a break and now has lots of money. He can't sing, he can't dance and he is judging people who are far more talented then he is. I have love for Puffy, but he needs a reality check, as easy as he got the money and the fame, is as easy as it can be taken away. "All birds that fly high eventually have to come down for a drink of water" get it? As for Laurie Ann, she is no nonsense and about her business (isn't that why they pay her?). Why is considered disrespectful when she decides not to stand there and accept Puffy's abuse. She did the right thing. She left and let him know how she felt. Kudos to Laurie Ann and god bless her. Michael, you are dead wrong for even taken Puffy's side, you know what's up! But I understand you need a paycheck just like the next man.
ReplyDeleteI saw the episode Diddy wasnt tryna make any of the guys think that they are in automatically based on the reaction of the judges that why Diddy has a stone face when they perform. The problem is she was reacting and that made him upset so then they argued and then to it out on the contestants for them to learn a weeks worth of choreography in a day and diddy didnt want to see how they would do in a day but in a week and thats not what he wanted so yea i think they argued but no one got physical especially Bivins because he was the one trying to give her the benefit the doubt she is just mad because she kinda got big headed thinkin that there was no show without her and he showed her that they didnt need her for the show
ReplyDeleteWELL, I MUST SAY THAT I AM NOT SHOCKED TO HEAR THAT THE TWO WOULD CLASH BECAUSE THEY BOTH LIKE TO BE SEEN AS WELL AS HEARD. I DON'T THINK THAT SHE IS GOOD AT WHAT SHE DOES AND IT WAS TIME FOR A CHANGE. THE NEW GUY THAT TOOK HER PLACE SEEMS LIKE HE IS GOING TO DO GOOD. PLEASE STAY BLESSED AND GOOD LUCK WITH MAKING THE BAND!
ReplyDeleteYou never know, this may just be true. When people have money, fame and "power", it all gets to their head. [There's a saying : Money is the root of all evil.] I mean, you seen the band site: dreams, destiny, diddy? please, it's many other tallents shows out there where people are doin it big. and diddy was just taking it too far, when laurie ann responded him by saying she was testing the guys ability to learn quick. she was wrong for that yes, but i dont think the situation should have gone as far as it did. And, yes, I would believe that Diddy tried to assault her with a chair. And Mike, I got love for ya, but you don't got to side with the wrong side, even if money is involved. God Bless, and everyone vote for the band members
ReplyDeleteyes, i agree with laurie ann diddy
ReplyDeleteis a bi**h he acts just like a little girl we all know that laurie ann ran that sh*t.
well to be honest i think that diddy probably got mad cause she thought it was her show.he didnt like it that she didnt follow his rules and she gets pay alot of money for that.ik think is bogus he did cursed at her and had an atittude like every human being would have when they pist off but everybody wants attention from the public cameras and wants p. diddy money she just got mad cause diddy embarrise her butt on t.v and told her how it is,,,,, dont mess with diddy he gots the power. get over it "she got fired.. move on.. p.s diddy gots some sexy ass lips ..give me your lipchap haaaaa god bless you all.
ReplyDeleteIt's true that Diddy can be harsh, but I don't think he would do anything that serious or harmful
ReplyDeleteAnd Michael Bivins? There's no WAY that he would do anything even close to that kind of nature
sexypyt i watch the show every monday and i do think that diddy is a ass hole ,but so is she.the show belong to diddy so do what he wants. if he ask you to let them dance througth the weekend then she should have done that.no but she wanted to do thing her way.i don't think that he should have done what every it was he did to her,but at the same time she should have listen because she know how diddy is she only been on the show 4 time dahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.she just wanted to run the show.i'm glad that he got another person to do the show i'm tried of seeing her.maybe the next show will even be better.
ReplyDeleteMe myself personal I think diddy did do what L.A.G said he did becuase remember he aint takin no interjections cuz he's a looney for real and those were words str8 frm his mouth and why else would he ask for them to cut the cameras. We all know that he got anger problems and thinks everybody beneath him. Movin on to Micheal he just a Flunkie dats di*k ridin major his big DNT DISRESPECT DIDDY ASZ that was a punk move for real.... thats jux how I feel about the situation diddy was wrung,L.A.G was wrung for not doing the task she was pose to but she wasnt wrung for stickin up for her self...
ReplyDeleteBizzy B, the real is ,Diddy was totally right about way things were being taught to the boy,s ,and the amount of time they had to learn the routine,further more the type of style,laurie ann presents is some what questionable for any new RnB group,her flavor is a little dated, pretty ricky ,don,t dance,new edition don,t dance,temptations didnt either,i can go on ,they all had steps and moves , they were entertainers not dancers,over kill can sometimes kill your career, she will find other work hopefully , keep it movin...............
ReplyDeleteI think she's a liar. She's mad cause she want to be the head bith in charge, diddy put her in her place.This is a one man show, not her show. Diddy was making cuts on the dance routines that day. She only gave them a day of the practice. He told her a week.She didn't do her job what is diddy paying her for . she should be fired. that what happens in real world. the poor guys wasn't even ready to be seen and judge. She treated the guys like crap. And totally disrected all of them including herself........
ReplyDeleteI think that Lori ann thought she ran the show her head blew up and she treated the guys like they were 5 yrs old. Diddy may have been wrong but she was also out of line.
ReplyDeleteSome anonymous responder said that Lori ann called one of the guys "Monkey" no I think she said MONEY.
ReplyDelete"You should have punched Money in the face".
diddy i love you but i think you should have really gave julius a chance to stay on show a little longer just because he hurt his leg you didnt give him a chance to prove he was a really great singer and a dancer
ReplyDeletediddy please control your temper i know you have the money but please dont let it get in youir head. i am on your side you were in the right to let laurie ann go she didnt do as you asked her to. SHE WAS TALKING BACK TO YOU SHE WAS QASHED UP IM GLAD YOU GOT THAT GUY TO TEACH THE GUYS TO DANCE
ReplyDeleteI FEEEL HE MIGHT HAVE ASSSAULTED HER BC WHY SHE SAID GET UR HAND OFF ME REALLY I DONT LIKE DIDDY BC HE THINKS HE IS ALL DAT AND SOME HE IT IS A WAY TO TALK 2 PEOPLE WHETHER U GOT MONEY OR NOT BC I REMEMBER WHEN UR ASS WAS JUST TRYING 2 DANCE 2 BE SEEN BEFORE U BECAME FAMOUS AND HONESTLY U ARE NOT ALL THAT U NEED 2 STILL BE TAKING LESSONS TO DANCE U DO WOMEN LIKE THAT LOOK HOW U DO UR BABY MOMA WORD OF ADVICE 2 HER FUCK DIDDY HONEY U CAN GET SOME ONE BETTER AND LIVE GOOD BUT BE SURE U GET UR DAMN CHILD SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDiddy got all that money and thinks he is better than everybody. I can see him doing something like that. He is crazy and very cocky. I dont blame Laurie for getting mad and blowing up. She might have went through a lot with his crazy ass. No wonder he can't keep a women. The problem is he has not came across the right women yet to put his "I think i'm better than everybody cause I got money" in his place. See how people act when they get all this money. People change. Once upon a time he didn't have. I can't stand him.
