Diddy To Open Business Academy In New York City

BET Honors honoree Sean “Diddy” Combs has revealed plans to expand his empire. He is opening a business academy in his NYC hometown.

Combs appeared on Anderson Cooper’s highly-respected CNN program "AC360" on February 1 and discussed his intentions. In an interview with Wolf Blitzer, Diddy said that the school will most likely reside in Harlem. He also said he is shying away from his Bad Boy image to appear more business-minded. “I want to take on more responsibility,” said a sincere Combs.

As always, this isn’t the final stop for Diddy. “I’m still honestly in search of how I can have the most positive effect that I can have.” 

Check back with BET.com to get more details on Diddy's academy as they become available. The business mogul has yet to release a name for the school.
