On June 10, 2010, Sean Combs, also known as Puff Daddy, P. Diddy, and Diddy, sat down with “Nightline” co-anchor Martin Bashir to discussed his multifaceted career and lifestyle brands in an interview in New York City. Diddy, a mogul with ventures in clothing, fragrances, restaurants, and premium vodka, is also considering opening a business school.
During a promotion for his new line of headphones, he shared his challenges with maintaining a grueling schedule, which has led to insomnia despite his efforts to manage it with sleeping pills, teas, and lavender. He expressed a mixed relationship with his constant drive, initially a boon to his success, now a source of discomfort.
Diddy, who likens himself to the “black James Bond,” continues to expand his influence across various media and consumer products, embodying both relentless self-promotion and the burdens that come with it.
