CNN Asked Cam’ron to Speak About Diddy, And It Went Exactly As You’d Expect From Cam’ron

The viral moment of Dipset rapper Cam’ron acting a fool on “CNN Tonight” should remind us of a quote from the infamous Dave Chappelle: “Who gives a f**k what Ja Rule thinks at a time like this?!”

If you haven’t seen, the “Oh Boy” rapper made an appearance on CNN with host Abby Phillip on Monday night to discuss Sean “Diddy” Combs and the 2016 surveillance video of him assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura.

Although he addressed the footage and acknowledged that he didn’t support anything Diddy did in the clip, it was clear that he was not interested in being interviewed about the topic.

“First of all, everything in the video was egregious. I don’t support all the charges that’s alleged against him. I don’t support any of that — trafficking minors, domestic violence. I’m totally against it,” said Cam’ron. “So when I saw the video, yeah, I was kinda upset with it. Being that I know him — he’s not necessarily a friend — but I was upset when I saw it.”

From that moment on, the rest of the interview went downhill as Phillips continued to try to ask Cam questions about his relationship with Diddy and how other artists felt about the Bad Boy Records founder’s reputation in the industry.

Killa Cam wasn’t interested in talking about any of that.

The interview officially went off the rails was when Cam took a shot of PinkHorsePower on air and said, “Sorry I’m going to get some cheeks after this.”

If you didn’t know, PinkHorsePower is a “natural supplement designed to empower man’s sexual intimacy.”

When asked for a final time about Diddy and the people, Cam responded with a question of his own, saying, “Who the talent agent for this joint? You think I be sitting around watching what Diddy do? I didn’t know that this was a Diddy joint that you invited me to. Yo, who booked me for this joint? Y’all wildin.’”

The “Come Home With Me” rapper addressed his appearance during the Tuesday episode of “It Is What It Is,” and expressed his frustration with CNN not asking him about any of the positive things he and co-host Mase do in the community.

Although Cam was less than respectful during his appearance, this isn’t his first time acting a fool on live TV.

If you recall, in 2003 he appeared on Fox News’s “The O’Reilly Factor” alongside Dame Dash and seemingly annoyed and mocked Bill O’Reilly for the entirety of his appearance on the show.

If CNN knew Cam was going to act like this prior to coming on the show, why book him in the first place?

Either they knew he was going to act a fool and wanted the viral moment, or they were duped into thinking Cam was going to give more in-depth answers. Whatever the reason, it clearly didn’t go great for them.
