He can ask the question. Diddy said, would he ask the same question to a white person.
I guess, No.
My black coworker owns a 5 acre home. A white coworker said, wow, how did you get that house, sold drugs. The guys always talk about the things they have. I have never heard the comment from anyone in my office.
Why would Diddy go to the "white person" card??? Did Bashir say it was impossible for Diddy to do that?? NO! And who on this planet doesn't already know that Diddy is LOADED and has been so for years??? With that knowledge, we can eliminate (with some common sense) that Bashir wasn't wondering HOW Diddy was able to afford the gift!

My guess would be no,too. I would love to see someone ask Tom Cruise why they spent 100K on Suri's 2nd birthday party...but chances are that won't happen
Like Nat said, would someone ask Jolie-Pitt about the money they spend on all their kids.
You see these kids all over "People Mag". Anyone on Entertainment Tonight wonder why about Suni.
Nope.
Like I said before, a lot of us are confused with racism and classism.
Why ask the question about the money?
But why is it automatically RACE??? And maybe if those two would give an interview like Bashir is known for, the question might get asked! But as it stands, Cruise keeps his fort up with all that goofy Scientology hovering over his head and Pitt crew just stay to themselves.

what other well known celebs has he interviewed besides mj?
Maybe, you are not understanding what I'm saying. I said, some black folks misunderstand something as racism. I'm sure you know someone who says racism, but if you correct them -- they will understand.
Diddy knew he wouldn't ask a white guy the question. Afterward, he thought about the question. Would he ask a white guy the question. He thought it was race. It's not.
I'm not saying Diddy is correct. I'm saying Diddy misunderstood.

Some people assume it's race, but it's not, Kane.
Did Bashir tell Diddy that this was a "black question only"? No. So Diddy is assuming that he'd only ask a black person that question. So who's racist here?

Not sure, but, if I had to guess, nope!
