Teddy Riley Releases a Statement

"Due to recent events, I am compelled to respond in detail to accusations made against me, by my daughters.

I love my Daughters, but I will not allow my children to disrespect me in my home. Contrary to what I have been accused of, I would never beat my children.

Perhaps, I should have been a stronger disciplinarian as they were growing up. I worked very hard so that my children would want for nothing."

Diddy is Not Going out for New Years Eve

But he is offering free rides for those of you who are.

Diddy says, "New York stands as the world's icon for a New Year's Eve celebration and Las Vegas is the biggest party destination in the country. By bringing this program to both of these great cities we will continue to show the rest of the country that a sophisticated holiday celebration doesn't end when the ball drops, but when everyone gets home safely."

I would say Teddy Riley gave his daughters whuppings, but they're over eighteen and too old for whuppings. Anyway, on December 23rd in LA, Teddy's daughter Taja called the cops and told them Teddy stomped, beat and bashed her and her older sister and threatened to kill them with both a Rock Band video game guitar. The daughters were granted a restraining order and Teddy has to stay at least 100 yards away from them.  Their next court date is set for January.
