Boy, Puffy is a busy man. He produces, he sings, he designs clothes, and he knocks up women… and pretty much does them all in equal amounts. Puffy – or whatever the hell you want to call him – has taken responsibility for another kid, who he fathered about three months before his twin daughters with ex-girlfriend Kim Porter. Surprisingly, Puffy can’t keep it in his pants. And I have no idea how, but apparently he finds a lot of ladies to get with. Who would have imagined? But at least in print, it sounds like he’s stepping up to the plate and planning on being a good father. I’m assuming in his case that means child support and a never-ending supply of Danity Kane CDs.

“Sean Combs is stepping up to the plate and taking legal responsibility for his sixth child. The rap mogul tells us exclusively that he’s ‘committed to being a good father’ to his 15-month-old daughter, Chance – even though the little girl was a factor in his break-up with longtime girlfriend, Kim Porter.

“Over the past year, Combs’ reps repeatedly denied to us that he’d fathered the child with Atlanta beauty Sarah Chapman. Combs now tells us he’d been holding off on acknowledging Chance as his blood until DNA tests had been completed. ‘At first, I wasn’t sure if this was my child,’ he said. ‘Now that it has become clear she is, I will take care of her for the rest of her life.’

“Combs, 37, and Porter, 36, welcomed daughters Jessie James and D’Lila Star last December. They also have a son, Christian, 8. Combs has a 13-year-old son, Justin, with ex-girlfriend Misa Hylton-Brim. He’s also been a father to Porter’s son, Quincy. Combs wants to be part of Chance’s life and has worked out visitation and support terms with Chapman, according to sources. Combs has also been trying to repair his relationship with Porter, they add. Certainly, she’s been down this road before, having taken him back after he left her for Jennifer Lopez.”

Well at least he’s being decent about it, at least on the surface. I’m not really clear on what kind of dad Puffy is – one could certainly argue that he’s not the best, considering all the philandering and popping out babies with random ladies. But really, those are just my own morals, and who I am to tell the great P Diddy to keep his pecker in his pants? So Diddy, as long as you’ve got money in the bank, you have my blessing to just whore it up with as many ladies as you like.
