Diddy swamped by PA applications

Diddy has received over 10,000 applications for a personal assistant job, after inviting video applications and later setting out a requirement for a college degree.

P Diddy Puff Doddy Diddle Daddy Combs has been swamped with thousands of job applications for the role of PA. Well, it sounded less like a PA and more like a PS (personal slave), really, with duties such as fielding his calls and holding a parasol over his head cited as part of gig. According to Undercover, the rap star invited open applications via various media channels on 12 Jul, asking fans to post video interviews for the job, and smugly saying "What better job than that, to have me scream at you, go crazy, keep you up late hours, have you sleep deprived?"

Over 10,000 people applied, and so Combs decided to clarify things a little and say that applicants needed to know how to read, write and have a college degree. Which I think's a bit unfair. You don't need a college degree to be useful. Anyway, the rap star plans to interview the best applicants on camera and then get audiences to decide who should get the job.
