Diddy on Cutting Country Album: Never Say Never

Sean Combs says cowboy crooning isn't in his future, at least for now

Earlier today, you found out what Sean "Diddy" Combs told me about Paula Abdul, Russell Brand and his future in television.

But there's more.

Since country music is part of his new Starmaker reality competition show on MTV, I just had to ask if he has any cowboy crooning aspirations of his own.

"I don't think I'm going to record a country album, but you never know," he said, laughing. "I may be open to put out a country album on my label, but as far as me, myself and I, I'm just happy to be a country fan."
