Puff Daddy arrives - "Morning everyone, sorry I'm a little late, I'm not used to the London traffic." 2. Ws press conference 3. Sot Puff Daddy - On changing his name as a joke during a dull interview - "I told them that I was going to be changing my name on credits and stuff like that, I always did that, if you check my credits over the last 10 years I usually come up with a new name just to keep the flavor going and so I made a little joke saying that I was going to have a name change ceremony and officially change my name. When I woke up the next morning it was on the cover of the papers that I had changed my name. The kids and everybody in the city of New York kept calling me P.Diddy so I just rolled with it, it was cool." 4. B-Roll - APTN FILE - Puff Daddy going into court March 2001 5. Sot Puff Daddy - On Shyness sentence - "As far as the evidence shows he was not trying to shoot anyone, he was aiming in the air, we feel it was self defence and we feel also that it was something that happened that never should have happened and somebody shouldn't have 8 to 10 years of their life taken away for that type of mishap. There are harsher crimes that go on that get less." 6. B-Roll Puff Daddy and Jennifer Lopez - APTN file December 1999 7. Sot Puff Daddy - on the song "I Want A Girl" being dedicated to Jennifer - "That was dedicated to Jennifer and it was a record that ... one of the verses was dedicated to her basically and the other verses could really go out to any girl that I have dealt with in the past but it was one verse and the over all record is dedicated to her." 8. B-Roll Jennifer Lopez - APTN file December 1999 9. Sot Puff Daddy - on Jennifer using the word Nigga in her song - "I know where her heart is at, I don't think she meant to say it as a racial slur. To be honest in New York Latinos and black people call each other my niger because we are people of colour and it's more an endearing term and so when we was together I was her nigger and it was something that was out of love." 10. Clip playback of the video "Bad Boys 4 Life" 11. Sot Puff Daddy on taking on Calvin Klein - "I'm challenging Calvin Klein to who can make the best underwear. Right now I have an underwear line and I have more styles than Calvin and I like to think my underwear feels better than Calvins. They are roomier for the black man. It's a snug fit but it's not as tight." 12. WS presser 13. Sot Puff Daddy - on hip hop - "Hip Hop is always going to be raw and it's always going to reflect what's going on in neighborhoods. We say to the government that if you don't like what they are saying then change what they are seeing, then change how you are forcing them to live. Thankyou." 14. B-roll Puff Daddy at photocall. P DIDDY LIFTS THE LID ON HIS PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE ================================================= P Diddy, the artist formerly known as Puff Daddy and also known as Sean Combs, has been talking openly about his private life to members of Europe's press. He was in London to promote his new album, "The Saga Continues..." by P Diddy and the Bad Boy Family. But as well as talking about his latest tracks, the star also chatted about his troubled personal life and his plans for the future. After the press were kept waiting for more than an hour and a half, Mr Diddy finally turned up to lay his cards on the table as to why he'd decided to change his name from Puff Daddy to P Diddy. "I made a little joke saying that I was going to have a name change ceremony and officially change my name." said P, " When I woke up the next morning it was on the cover of the papers that I had changed my name. The kids and everybody in the city of New York kept calling me P.Diddy so I just rolled with it, it was cool." The name Jennifer Lopez was naturally on everyone's lips and P Diddy revealed that he had written a song on the album dedicated to J-Lo entitled "I Need A Girl", where one verse is solely about his relationship with the Latin superstar. Whilst on the subject of Ms Lopez, he talked candidly about the criticism that she has been getting in the States over her use of the word "nigga" is one of her songs. "I know where her heart is at, I don't think she meant to say it as a racial slur. To be honest in New York Latinos and black people call each other my nigga because we are people of colour and it's more an endearing term and so when we was together I was her nigga and it was something that was out of love." P Diddy is a man with his fingers in many pies and he took time to talk about his clothing line, which he was rumoured to be selling. This was not the case as Mr Diddy revealed. In fact, he is planning to go head to head in competition against underwear designer Calvin Klein, saying black men need more room in their underwear - and that was a market not catered for. The star also answered questions about his recent brush with the law following a gun incident in late December 1999, involving himself, Jennifer Lopez and hip hop artist Shyne. Shyne was convicted of firing a weapon to the ceiling to disperse the crowds. P Diddy defended Shyne today, saying that they were trying their utmost to clear his name in an appeal. He added he feels the sentence was too long for the crime committed, and that other more serious crimes are not as harshly punished. After talking at length about the relationship between hip hop, rap and crime, he went on to attack the "cleaning up" of hip hop, which was at the centre of a recent convention in the States. "Hip Hop is always going to be raw and it's always going to reflect what's going on in neighborhoods. We say to the government that if you don't like what they are saying then change what they are seeing, then change how you are forcing them to live." He finished off the press conference with an exclusive video "Bad Boys 4 Life" which features a long list of celebrities, including Mike Tyson, Ben Stiller, Crazy Town, Shaquille O'Neal, Snoop Dogg, and Ice Cube. The album "The Saga Continues..." is out in North America on July 10th. Releases elsewhere are not known at present.

Clip Video - 'I'm Real' - Jennifer Lopez LOPEZ MARRIES IN SECRET Singer-actress Jennifer Lopez, wearing one of her trademark gowns with plunging neckline and low-cut back, married dancer and choreographer Cris Judd in a very private ceremony. Lopez, 31, and Judd, 32, were married Saturday night at a home in this Los Angeles suburb, her publicist Alan Nierob said Sunday. Attorney Barry Hirsch presided over the ceremony, and the couple's longtime friend and Lopez's manager, Benny Medina, was best man, Nierob said. Arlene Rodriguez, Lopez's best friend from childhood, was maid of honor. About 170 relatives and friends attended the ceremony, Nierob said. The bride's off-white lace dress, with plunging neckline and low-cut back, was designed and created by Valentino. The couple met earlier this year while taping the video for her single 'Love Don't Cost a Thing.' Lopez appeared with Judd at the Academy Awards in March, one month after she and rapper impresario Sean 'P. Diddy'" Combs announced their breakup after two years in the spotlight and after both artists were involved in a court case concerning an incident about an illegal firearm. Lopez and Judd, who will honeymoon in an undisclosed location, will live in Los Angeles, Nierob said. The wedding was the first for Judd and the second for Lopez, who divorced model Ojani Noa in 1998. Since appearing in 1990 as a 'Fly Girl' dancer on the Fox variety show 'In Living Color,' Lopez' career has exploded with forays into music, film, television and - most recently - fashion. The omni-talented Jennifer Lopez got her break when she was chosen to play the lead role in 'Selena', the 1997 big screen biopic of the slain Tejano singer. The Latin femme fatale also racked up film credits in the 1997 summer thriller 'Anaconda', Oliver Stone's 1997 film noir 'U Turn,' and Steven Soderbergh's classy thriller 'Out of Sight' in 1998, playing a cop who falls for George Clooney's con. Having made her mark on Hollywood, the Bronx native set her sites on a recording career with the release of her debut album, 'On the 6', in the spring of 1999. The album, named for the No. 6 subway train that links Manhattan and the Bronx, featured the international hit single 'If You Had My Love.' After achieving phenomenal success in both film and music, there have been rumours that Ms Lopez is getting a little big-headed. She has been reported to have made extraordinary requests: she is not only reported to have baths in Evian water, but she also recently shocked BBC TV bosses when she turned up to perform on the UK's 'Top of the Pops' show with more than 50 people in her entourage, and demanded extra dressing rooms to accommodate them all. Lopez is also reported to have her favourite perfume sprayed wherever she goes. However, it's doubtless that she would care about these rumours as she's still riding on the crest of the wave in the showbusiness industry and is currently at No. 2 on the Billboard charts with the Ja Rule remix of 'I'm Real'. She also recently wrapped up work on 'Enough,' slated for release Memorial Day weekend. Whether or not Jennifer will take on the surname of Judd is unlikely after spending some time establishing her new name as J-Lo.

Sot Ben Affleck - "That's it, I'm getting a drink" - APTN file J-LO: IT'S THE FIRE INSIDE JENNIFER LOPEZ's engagement to BEN AFFLECK is the real thing because of the "fire inside", she told ABC's Diane Sawyer yesterday (13NOV02). The actress and singer explained that, unlike her relationship with SEAN 'P DIDDY' COMBS and short-lived marriage to dancer CRIS JUDD, she was unable to keep the "fire" at a distance when it came to her new fiancee and 'Gigli' co-star. The couple, who have been photographed kissing over the past few months, were recently engaged in a "traditional, but also in a very spectacular way," Lopez says. The couple met last winter while shooting the movie 'Gigli,' in which Lopez plays a gangster sent to supervise a thug, played by Affleck, in a kidnapping. She describes Affleck as "brilliantly smart," charming and affectionate. "My mother loves Ben," she adds. But she admitted that before she met him she thought he was just another arrogant star who had too many girlfriends. The ABC interview was taped recently in Manhattan and in Lopez's old Bronx neighbourhood. Lopez didn't mention a wedding date, but the couple could tie the knot on Valentine's Day, according to friends and sources quoted in the November 18th issue of People magazine. Affleck, 30, who remains good friends with one-time lover GWYNETH PALTROW, has never been married. Lopez, 32, has had two previous marriages. She split from model-restaurateur Ojani Noa in 1998 after about a year and this summer ended a 10-month marriage to dancer Cris Judd. That divorce becomes final on January 26. The video from Lopez's new single 'Jenny On The Block' features Affleck in a cheeky take on the media's endless quest for footage of the pair together.

Donatella Versace presents J. Lo with award for most Influential star of the year. Shotlist ENDS JENNIFER LOPEZ MOST INFLUENTIAL FASHION STAR OF YEAR Finally, an awards show where it's all about the red carpet. At Tuesday's (15OCT02) VH1-Vogue Fashion Awards, actors, models and musicians-turned-designers were feted for their penchant for looking absolutely fabulous. "I think the most important thing about style is the smile you put on other people's faces - or the look of absolute terror," quipped Aerosmith's Steven Tyler as he picked up the Rockstyle award. Platinum-blond rapper Eve was given the Breakthrough style award; she thanked her nail stylist, among many others. And singer-actress-turned-designer J.Lo, or Jennifer Lopez, was named the most influential star of the year. But anyone hoping that she might wear some of the sexy, jaw-dropping fashions of previous awards shows were likely disappointed; she was demurely dressed, like a schoolgirl, wearing a white tam, a white shirt covered by a black sweater and a flared white miniskirt. Oh, and stiletto heels. The show, hosted by 'Will & Grace' star Debra Messing, mixed music with fashion; performers such as Pink and David Bowie sang in between tributes to designers such as Ralph Lauren and Alexander McQueen; and mini-fashion shows. Celebrities paid homage to designers, and vice versa. The nominees for the 'VH1/Vogue Fashion Awards' are determined by the VH1/Vogue Fashion Awards Style Council, an exclusive committee of top fashion editors, journalists, curators, stylists, designers, photographers and models assembled by VH1 and Vogue. Nominees for the categories of 'Visionary Video' and 'Designer of the Year' were selected online by visitors to VH1.com and Style.com. Donatella Versace gave Lopez her award, while Sean "P. Diddy" Combs paid tribute to Lauren, and John Travolta presented Tom Ford with the designer of the year trophy. Other honorees were Karolina Kurkova, who was named model of the year; Hugh Grant, who was selected leading man; 'Igby Goes Down' star Kieran Culkin, picked as Newcomer of the year; and Gywneth Paltrow, was got the Red Carpet award. Paltrow, whose father died earlier this month, did not attend. Venus and Serena Williams, Claire Danes, LL Cool J, Naomi Campbell, Cate Blanchett and Naomi Watts were among the other celebrities who took part in the two-hour show, which aired live on the VH1 cable television network.

Sot Question - "Do you have a celebrity clientele, who supports you?" Sot J Maskrey - "Andrea Corr is over there, Jennifer Lopez, everyone, I have worked with everyone." 6. Show Finale STORYLINE: CLOTHES PLAY 2ND FIDDLE AT MASKREY'S SHOW It seemed to be more of a case of clothes being the accessories for the J. Maskrey show during London's Fashion Week, as many of the models wore more bags and skin jewellery than clothing at Monday's show. Both male and female models paraded down the catwalk in skimpy leather underwear and tops, but adorned from head to toe in sequined designs that were glued on to the models' skin. This comes as no surprise since Maskrey began her career as a make-up artist and she developed concepts for long-lasting body jewellery. Since then she has expanded her collection to show off bags, belts and other accessories. The sequined designs came in many shapes, colours and sizes and included leaves, spiders, birds, stripes, flowers and crosses. The clothes' designs were mainly of leather, with some mesh being used over the body designs. Among the audience was The Corrs' front woman, Andrea, who was there to catch up on Maskrey's latest designs. Andrea Corr is not the only celebrity to be fond of Maskrey's work. Her other celebrity supporters include such high-profile stars as Bono, Britney, Halle Berry, Jennifer Lopez, P Diddy, and Cate Blanchett.

Obviously each of the artists have a huge quota of people, and the record companies and managers, who come with them all of whom will come with them and have their own agenda for their artist and their positioning, so it is important that we give them the best position without denigrating what the show is about. Because the show is really the platform for each and individual artist and you cant let that get out of kilter by leaning too far either way. So we have got to do a lot of diplomacy. We have got to work very hard with it. But these people know that this is a powerful tool for them , it is a very important show to be seen on and because of the syndication it will be seen everywhere, so it is up to them to make a great performance. As long as we can concentrate on the artists performance rather than handing people smarties then we are usually pretty good. " 19.

Probably the biggest of the lot was the surprise spilt of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, and that has kind of kept people captivated throughout the year actually. Because as well as the split and the divorce and who gets what, the stories then after that were obviously their new partners. You had Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz, who met on the set of Vanilla Sky, and there is clearly chemistry there as you can tell from the footage we have already seen from the film, and they became a real life couple." 6.

SOT Mark Frith: "Then of course you have got the tantalizing thought that it could be Nicole Kidman and Robbie Williams who are next to get together and whether or not they have been playing with the media and grabbing the attention themselves, it has just been a fascinating story. Personally, I don't think they are a couple, they haven't seen each other enough to be a couple, but there is clearly some chemistry between Nicole and Robbie, and that comes across in the video for probably the biggest single of the Christmas and New Year period which is 'Something Stupid'." 13.

We found that they were going out very quickly and then we found out that they were engaged, and then quickly they were wed, again I think there is a greater intensity in showbiz relationships, they spend more time together, probably go through more extreme stuff together, especially if they are working together like Jennifer Lopez and Chris Judd are, and if they can keep that going that is fantastic." 18.

I still take Mia to a little baby music group, and we go to the swimming baths and I just do everything like normal and that is how I deal with it. (Reporter: How is motherhood?) It is fantastic, it is the best thing in the world, nothing compares to it." 32. Music clip ALL CHANGE UNDER THE MISTLETOE It's been a year of partner shuffling for some of the world's biggest stars - seemingly settled showbiz relationships have ended, while others have sprung up and blossomed despite the pressure of the ever watchful press. The biggest headline catcher was TOM CRUISE and NICOLE KIDMAN's surprise split at the beginning of the year - Cruise filed for divorce from the actress in February, after 10 years of marriage. A quickie divorce followed, citing irreconcilable differences, as the stars publicly blamed their faltering marriage on "divergent careers which constantly kept them apart." The two stars settled for an undisclosed sum, and shared custody of their two children. The rumour mill had plenty to keep it turning when Cruise began seeing his Vanilla Sky co-star PENELOPE CRUZ. The pair met making the film, but insist they did not become romantically involved until after the movie was finished - and Cruise's marriage was over. Cruise and Cruz made their first public appearance as a couple five months ago, at the LA premiere of another Cruz film, 'Captain Corelli's Mandolin' . They recently appeared at a string of promotional premieres for 'Vanilla Sky', including a launch in Kidman's home town of Sydney, Australia. Fans there gave them a warm welcome despite warnings that sympathy for Nicole might cool their reception. While their relationship goes from strength to strength, Nicole seems to be winning the post-split publicity battle. Her performances in Baz Lurhmann's musical 'Moulin Rouge' and Alejandro Amenabar's spooky thriller 'The Others' have received rave reviews and Golden Globe nominations, while critics tip an Academy Award is a likely follow-up. Her duet with Robbie Williams 'Somethin' Stupid' won the coveted Christmas number one spot in the UK charts, and sparked rumours of a 'did they-didn't they' romance between the pair in the British press. Another high profile February breakup was JENNIFER LOPEZ and rapper impresario SEAN 'P.DIDDY' COMBS. The split came after a two year romance in the spotlight and after both artists were involved in a court case concerning an incident about an illegal firearm. In March (2001), J-Lo appeared at the Academy Awards on the arm of dancer CRIS JUDD, who she had met taping the video for her single 'Love Don't Cost a Thing'. It was a whirlwind romance - the pair were married by the end of September. Meanwhile, September saw a marriage breakup for British film star KATE WINSLET, after three years with her film director husband Jim Threapleton, which seemed one of the most solid relationships in showbiz. Winslet's spokesman Robert Garlock announced "No other parties are involved in this amicable and respectful separation. Their daughter Mia will remain first priority for both of them." The couple had met on the set of 'Hideous Kinky' and married on November 22, 1998. Mia was born in October last year. The '"Titanic' actress never seemed to tire of describing their wedded bliss and how the birth of their daughter Mia had made them stronger than ever. Meeting him also helped ease the pain of the death from cancer in December 1997 of her ex-boyfriend, scriptwriter Stephen Tedre. The difference in status between the two rarely seemed to be an issue, and Winslet claimed they hardly talked about money. But Threapleton has since cited Kate's devotion to her work as the main cause of the break up. Winslet has found comfort in a new relationship though, with 'American Beauty' director SAM MENDES. The pair admitted they were involved in November (01), stressing they met after the marriage was over, tarting out as friends. Kate is reported to have told friends that she's 'madly in love' with the British director who has in the past described himself as pathologically afraid of commitment, and has been linked to a string of Hollywood stars including Cameron Diaz, Jane Horrocks, Ally McBeal's Calista Flockhart, and, most recently, Rachel Weisz, from whom he split in March. Former Baywatch star PAMELA ANDERSON has found new romance with rock star KID ROCK, a one time friend of her ex-husband TOMMY LEE. The actress was married to Lee for three years until 1998, and is now in the middle of a messy custody battle over their two children. British actress LIZ HURLEY who first hit the headlines when she appeared at the premiere of 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' in an eye-popping Versace dress, will soon be seen in maternity wear - she is expecting her first baby next April. The former model says she has suffered little morning sickness and no cravings, and is looking forward to being a mother. She claims the father is American millionaire Stephen Bing, who had an on-off relationship with the actress this year. But Hurley is to bring the child up as a single mother. But it seems the 'Bedazzled' star can expect moral support from her ex-boyfriend of 13 years, 'Bridget Jones's Diary' star HUGH GRANT, who has been seen visiting her at her home.
