Captain
It's nice to be on the other side of the law.<p><font color=yellow>Sean 'Diddy' Combs</font> spoke to CBS and told them he'd like to play a lawyer on one of the <I>CSI</I> shows. The network gave him a call "25 hours later, [saying] they were going to write me a part into <I>CSI: Miami</I>. It was truly a blessing," Combs told <A class="link" HREF="http://www.mtv.com/">MTV News</a>. He explained that he's <A class="link" HREF="http://www.csifiles.com/news/201208_03.shtml">playing a defense attorney</a> opposite Horatio Caine (<font color=yellow>David Caruso</font>). "The scene I am shooting today is myself and David," he said. "We have a lot of confrontation. I'm like his nemesis."<p>"I play this lawyer, almost all the time I get everyone off. It's like, I set up one of my clients to get off one of my other clients, but nobody's sure if I'm a good guy or a bad guy," Combs said. "[There's] a lot of that going back and forth with every one of the actors that are on <I>CSI: Miami</I>," he continued. "Every actor, I'm really like their nemesis. Just playing a lawyer I had a great time." The final scene in his first episode sets up for his second appearance on the show.<p>Several days before, Combs shot a courtroom scene and said it was "a better feeling" than being the defendant during his own legal troubles a few years ago. "I'm blessed to have this opportunity," he explained. The rapper-turned-actor went on to say, "I wanted to keep on studying and learning; working with great actors, directors, great shows. I've never done a television drama. I've always wanted to play a lawyer. I didn't want to play, like, a rap artist or a criminal."<p>The original article is from <A class="link" HREF="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1601756/20081222/puff_daddy.jhtml">MTV News</a>.<center></center>
