According to reports, the rapper-turned-businessman-turned actor has called on Simon Cowell to give him a job on the X Factor USA judging panel when it returns in the autumn.
Combs, 43, has issued a request to Cowell for the job to replace Britney Spears, who parted ways with the show last year.
Appearing on US TV show Extra recently, he was asked if he fancied a job on the famous panel, to which the multi-millionaire replied: “Simon’s pockets are kind of tight and I’m kind of expensive. I have these six kids to feed so he needs to step up.”
