Well we’ve now gone through two episodes of Making The Band 3 and Diddy has started to cut some of the fat. And I personally can’t thank him enough. The show was full of fat. To put it in perspective, if this show was a meal, it would be a big greasy pork sandwich served in a dirty ashtray (extra points to whoever can name which movie that’s from). But now we need to turn it into a lean turkey club sandwich with lowfat mayo and a side salad with a nice vinaigrette. And in this episode we start to see Diddy really coming into his own as he falls back on some of his true talents. I’ve got two words for you: rickshaw and bullhorn.

It's true, for the first time this season we will not be subjected to a half hour of bad singing. This is good news because the scabs on my eardrums from last episode have yet to fully heal. Remember John Goodman’s ears in Barton Fink? That is what bad songs sung badly can do to you. No, this episode will be all about the art of dance. And in Diddy’s world the kind of dancing he is looking for is the kind that can be done with a pole and a garter belt to hold singles. Like I said, the man is a good businessman. And the first rule of business is don’t talk about business. Wait, that’s Fight Club. No, the first rule of business is to sell people what they want. And what we want (or at least what Diddy and I want) is a world full of Shakiras shakin' their tail feathers. Oh what a world that would be...
