i think diddy should look for new members,i believe that he made the right choice,with aubrey,she let a little fame and money go to her head and forgot where she came form and who help her to get there.

carmen massey Fri, Mar 27, 2009 at 12:19 AM EST

I am sick of Que. I think Dawn is the problem she start stuff then hide behind the scenes. Dawn is filling Que's head up with crazy stuff. She caused her group to break up so how can she tell him what to do. She need to practice what she preach because if she wasn't so 2-faced with Danity Kane they would still be together minus Aubry. Dawn is the tyoe of person that throw a rock and hide her hands. FYI she is UGLY, her nose is big, her make up is never blended, not to mention her jacked up hair. She need to take on a more subtle look because she is too ugly to create attention with those ugly hats she wear. She is Que's problem. Two ugly people shouldn't be together. Que looks like tweety bird and Dawn looks like a camel. The both need to be in a race to see who can eat the most. She is bigger than Que. Personally I think Que need to be put on blast by a fan just so he can see how stupid he looks.

HI I'AM A HUGE FAN OF DAY 26 DANITY KANG JONNIE NO............... I LOVE THE BEAUTIFUL GIRLS QUE I WISH U GOOD LUCK WIT U AND DAWN WILLIE CAN YOU PLEASE STOP ARGUEING

*Red* Mon, Mar 16, 2009 at 09:51 AM EST

I'm also upset about the way the show ended.Diddy know that he was wrong from the get go.And the drama was ridiculous.If if was me i would f...what Diddy had to say and do what I gotta do to keep my name out there. Kause they had SOOOOOOOOOOOOO many Fans. And so many girls who loved them. Maybe not ALL of them but atleast 3 of the.

Diddy you sould put d.wood on danity kane because she did do suff like aubry that all

Kaye Fri, Dec 19, 2008 at 10:11 AM EST

I love all the girls but if stuff dont work out you have to make changes.I meet the girls at a fashon show and they are very nice and are very lucky.But I have Learned that if you take your life for granted you will lose everything.I know Cause of the thing that happend in New Orleans in 2005 I was there through all that stuff.But any ways Puffy when are you gonna look 4 the rest of the group if this wasnt planned?

JAZZLYN BELL Sun, Nov 9, 2008 at 01:22 PM EST

DIDDY DID WHAT HE HAD TO DO. ITS WHAT'S GOOD OF BAD BOY. IF YOU WERE THE BOSS & ONE OF YOUR EMPLOYEES TOLD U HOW TO RUN YOUR COMPANY. WHAT WOULD U DO? & HOW LONG WOULD U PUT UP WHIT THIS EMPLOYEE. TELLING YOU HOW TO DO. WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN DOING FOR 15 YEARS. DIDDY MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT. AS FOR AUDREY I DON'T THINK WE WILL SEE HER AROUND TO MUCH LONGER. IN THE HIP HOP & R.N.B WORLD. MAYBE SHE SHOULD TRY TO BE A COUNTRY SINGER THEY LIKE DRAMA IN THERE SONGS

Sarah Sat, Nov 8, 2008 at 01:15 AM EST

well i do think that diddy had his reason for kicking Aubrey out the group
but to kick out D.Woods for being the only real person and speaking her mind i think that thats messed up she did nothing but (hey) he feels like just cause he got money now that he can treat ppl the way that he want well i like to say that what make me not have respect for anybody that act like a child cause that what kids do
( Hey Diddy i would like to just ask you to give Danity kane one more chance Why (cause all they need is two shot)

Lorette Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 07:22 AM EST

Aubreys head got so big that she forgot whose the boss. You simply dont talk to your boss like she did. He is the man that saw something in her and soon as she got her foot wet, she wants to disrespect...it ain't right.

Felicia Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 02:11 AM EST

I am kind of pissed... yea Aubrey did let the fame get to her head... but really what star doesnt? just think about it.. I love DK but dont know if i would listen to them if they arnt all together.. i mean come on you hear all the celebrities say that everything they do are for the fans (including P.Diddy) well when did he "think of the fans" when he chose that? what about the fans who have watched this group since the first making of the band, the fans who spent money buying items of the original DK going to concerts and public showings? People grew with these 5 girls. And because Aubrey "disrespected" P. Diddy shes just out! i hear the girls say he is scary... hes a normal person.. with a real ugly attitude!!!!

Rosie Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 12:32 AM EST

I know Diddy did the right thing. I watched every episode of every season and I have to say I did like Aubrey back then but I think Diddy was right, she has changed. Aubrey isn't the same person he hired in the beginning. She let fame rush to her head until it got so big he had no choice but to pop it.

Jacalyn Mon, Oct 27, 2008 at 03:47 PM EST

I think that Diddy made a bad move hoew do you build a group around Aubrey and than let her go..He FUP bad, but that is he loss the girls will be better off without him. Diddy needs to get off his high horse and realize that he made a huge mistake.

Lina Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 11:15 PM EST

I think diddy started to get upset that they really didnt wanna talk about the problems and when aubry said what she said it made him fly off.I personally dont think that she was rude she didnt yell or get loud she was just stating that communication between them(diddy and badboy) was not there.I dont see the harm in filling your group in when there's rumors flying around saying Dawn is solo when shes just laying tracks,that would worry a group.I liked aubry i liked all of them.what he did to d.woods seemed like it was out of anger.But he did the wrong thing,there is a bad girl in every group.TLC had left-eye but did they kick her out??? No

You Fools Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 07:52 PM EST

I think that Diddy, did right by getting rid of Audbrey, but D-Woods he should give another chance.

Tanya Gillum Sun, Oct 26, 2008 at 07:13 PM EST

Aubrey I am so disappointed in you, u blew a good opportunity. What is wrong with u? You cant talk to your boss like that, who do you think you are? Your mouth is to slick!! Diddy got money on the line, u need to check yourself! I respect you as a artist, but your attitude needs a tune-up! D Woods u better than that, u let your emotions and t.v. friendship cloud your judgement. I respect u D, but don't let bad company cloud your judgement. All u ladies started with diddy's dollars and a dream! Stay focused!! I dont want to see different members in the group, that will make your fans loose interest fast. Ladies get it together!!! It also nothing wrong with a 3 girl group yall, dont get it twisted!!

kt Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 10:56 PM EST

I'm glad Diddy let aubrey and d woods go. Aubrey does not set a good example she always looks like a hot mess more so on the finale i really think she's on some type of drug. The remaining three are the three best and will always do well. keep it up!!!

WHATEVA Tue, Oct 21, 2008 at 10:10 PM EST

I'm much older than many viewers of MTB but a big fan none the less. I'm a player in corporate America and if this is publicity stunt I won't be surprised. Having said that, if D Woods and Aubrey are being played and they REALLY have no idea then that's really unfortunate. I hope they have the business sense to leave Bad Boy and find a label that isn't as capitalistic. It's business but I believe these two are more talented and deserve more than what Puff has to offer.

If the group was informed and America's being played.. good on Puff for the drama. It keeps the fans coming back for more. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Aubrey... You're smoking hot and I this lesbian will keep up with you no matter what!

Carina Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 03:57 PM EST

The Season Finale Was really disapointing. I really Wanted Aubrey And D. Woods To Stay. They Were Always Really Talanted But Also They Were Keeping DK Together.

JC Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 02:53 PM EST

Sorry , I got cut off. So as for Aubry, she def changed. I mean i am not saying that she was horrible but she could have taken a step back. Celebrity life can get the best of you, you can't let that happen. but I am sure that if she does not get back into "DK" well she will find something else as D-Woods will too. It's just so sad , it really is. :(

JC Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 02:50 PM EST

I have to say I am in shock!! I am truly very upset about this. I am a huge DK fan. I really feel that the fab 5 worked so perfectly together group wise. When they were first picked by diddy years ago, I said to myself "WOW, that is the perfect group". I had no clue that there was inside drama/issues going on with the group. Watching the show, it looked like they all got along. In my opinion, I think that yes, girls are very caddy and jealous. That is a known fact. But when you are in a group liek "DK" you have to expect that there will be opportunities for each individual too. Like they said, Aubry had the musical "Hairspray". Dawn gets a solo, good for her! she deserves it, she is very talented and has a special voice. I am sure each girl will get there moment. Jealousy gets you know where but it does give you aggrivation and it can cause things like this to happen. As for diddy's decision. I think that he was a little harsh but at the same time i see why he did it. He had enough.

Jessia Sun, Oct 19, 2008 at 09:57 AM EST

Nobody should've disrespected diddy. I noticed that Aubrey would always talk back and interrupt Diddy while he was talking. There is a difference between speaking up and talking back. Diddy is the boss at the end of the day he has the last word no matter what. If he wants Dawn or Aundrea for some other project, then that is his business. I think all five girls are jealous of eachother and need to get along better.

vanessa Sat, Oct 18, 2008 at 09:24 PM EST

with everything that is going on in the world today,Why are we so involved in something so tiny as this?are any of the people who voiced their opinions registered to vote?If not please do so!!!

iblady2u Sat, Oct 18, 2008 at 02:08 PM EST

The fact is, Diddy did talk to Aubrey before this, and how do we know that he didn't talk to her in private too? She didn't listen, her image was not the same as what she was in the beginning, and the way she acted, I was beginning to think that something was seriously wrong with her, and I am not trying to disrespect her, because she is only human, but all I can say is that she changed big time! The fact that Aundrea and her don't talk anymore, when they started off as good friends, says it all. And about Dawn, she may be good but I don't see her as a solo artist, and regarding blaming her for the demise of DK, I think that when she and Diddy had a chance to work together I think she did a lot of talking to him about what was really going on in the group, and that is why the big meeting.

morgan Sat, Oct 18, 2008 at 01:04 PM EST

Diddy asked the group to bring up issues that they had and Aubrey brought up her concerns. If Diddy really didn't want to hear it then shouldn't have asked. His behavior (kicking Aubrey and D. Woods out) will not encourage them to speak up again because they may get blindsided or kicked out of the group. Diddy -- they are young and impressionable and you are the grown up and know the business side. Coaching is definitely better than being a dictator. Talk with them about your vision of the group and then find out what their vision is. Come up with a vision that all of you can work with. If it is their vision along with yours then they will want to modify their behavior. In that discussion you can talk in general about the type of behavior that you don't think is in line with the vision and get their agreement. Then give them the chance to change it. This was and is a dynamite group. That's my 2 cents -- may the 5 DK members remain members of DK.

bree Sat, Oct 18, 2008 at 12:35 PM EST

DIDDY YOU DID THE RIGHT THING. I DONT CARE 4 YOU MUCH AT ALL, BECAUSE YOU ARE OVER RATED , BUT YOU ARE VERY CORRECT ABOUT AUBREY AND DWOODS. "ONE BAD APPLE WILL SPOIL THE WHOLE BUNCH". I USE TO LIKE AUBREY BUT WITH THE FAME SHE DEVELOPED A NEW NAME.

V-ro... Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 09:07 PM EST

I think that the group will not be a group without the five. Even though Aubrey has done things to make herself not presentable or get much respect, I love her and the group! Like Shannon said, they need to re-focus on DK and communicate in the future. I think Diddy went to the extreme of giving the girls the boot. They have all worked so hard to be together and I think this issue is a little bit of a falling out, but everything is possible with hard work! I hope everything works out and Aubrey and D-Woods get back with the group because regardless of the three being together or Diddy adding two girls...DK will never be the same!

thundah02 Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 07:30 PM EST

I’m not going to pretend as if I like puff, because I don’t. in fact I think that he's beyond a joke, and that he says things just to hear himself talk rather than to make any kind of sense. But I’m not going to call him a fool because he has an empire that I don't, fame and a fortune that many wish for. But many of his decisions as a record exec is why he doesn't have anyone on his label worth anything. This is not to say that he hasn't found talent, but instead to say that he has no clue how to handle any artist that is not himself. I feel sorry for anyone that has been signed to bad boy because they always without a doubt end up either never getting the true success they deserve or end up never getting the chance because of his poor judgments. But puff himself has said that he doesn't manufacture good artist he makes hits. And no one can argue with the fact that, in that regard his label has done that. So case in point, never get too attached to anyone that is on bad boy.

K22diddysux Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 02:59 PM EST

I agree nootz.
Diddy is a joke.
The thing is it isn't just business... would you have no respect for someone you have worked with for four years... four years... business or not he wasn't messing up his business she simply was asking that they not have to worry about what is going on and to have the decency and respect to reinforce that nothing was happening that she was simply getting on some tracks... and to fire management who is telling them that moves are being made and people will be going solo.

As Tupac said.. Fk badboy as a staff, record label, and a mother !%!kin crew. DIE SLOW MY 44 make sure all yo kids dont grow. WESTSIDE

Dan DZnootz Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 02:52 PM EST

This is a !%!#^%^ Joke Diddy is a nobody. This is going to ruin him. He is shown for exactly what he is a complete moron. Aubrey just like ANYONE was just asking that they be more informed... when they are hearing that they might be split up. Diddy kept them in the dark on moves he was making and ANYBODY would want the respect after working with someone for 4 years to at least know what their future entails... Reguardless this will not be the end of aubrey...

And by the way diddy had 1 thing going for him and that was his business persona.. Who would want to work with such a fool. He was never a good rapper... and he will continue to try to act hard on tv when hes a punkass sellout.

Kita Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 02:39 PM EST

I am upset that Dawn is getting blamed for everything that is going on with Aubrey and D. Woods. Diddy made a decision and that has nothing to do with Dawn. Aubrey made a choice and so did D. Woods. No one else should be blamed for that. I think if the group goes on the way they are they will still succeed. In my opinion they were all strong singers and added something great to the group. If Dawn does get a solo deal good for her. She will have fans because she has a good spirit and she is a great singer. Everyone should stop hating on the members of DK (all five of them). Aubrey is who she is and no one can change that. I am tired of reading all these posts that are dogging Dawn and Aubrey. They seem to be the only two being singled out and it is not right. This was on Diddy and how he felt about the group. Diddy had a certain image in mind we cannot blame that man for making a business decision that was best for his company. Hopefully everything will work out for the best.

Betty Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 02:02 PM EST

I love Dawn. I heard on the radio that people are blaming her for the demise of Danty Kane. Aubrey was the demise of Danity Kane. When you think back to the beginning, she has completly changed. Fame will do that to some people if they are not grounded. Unfortunately, no one in that group shines like a Beyonce. They need to be in a group. I hope the ladies saved their money. Especially if they are depending on Diddy to resurrect their career. Where is Ness & Babs? Black Rob? New Edition? Things that make you say.. UMM?

iblady2u Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 01:27 PM EST

I think that Diddy had a right to kick Aubrey out of the group, she was disrespectful, and she was no role model for the young girls that like the group so much. What they did at that last concert was borderline soft porn and that was Aubreys idea. I would never allow my daughter to go to a concert like that. It is his money, and if they make him look bad, well he has to do what is best for him and his business. I for one would never had put up with her mess. She was very good in the beginning but slowly went down hill with the fame. As for D.Woods I hope she comes to her senses. Any group can make it regardless of who leaves and who stays. I think DK will make it without Aubrey, as long as Diddy puts in the right girl to fill her spot, and once DK is a group that works well together and gets along and LIKE each other, this group will be big, with or without Aubrey and D. Woods.

Chelle Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 12:28 PM EST

I think that it is a business, however, taking one member of the band and having them be on your album with out telling the other's isn't cool. I understand that he can do what he wants, but that creates jealousy and confusion amongst the left out members. I think Aubry is a hot mess and her " Fame" has gone to her head. I respect that she is vocal and won't let diddy step all over her, but she is doing a bit much. Diddy will never make the next Destiny's child.. he just needs to let it go. How many times is he going to try to do this? Day 26 was his 4th group... I never hear them on the radio. If it wasn't for the show I wouldn't know who they were! Keep making clothes diddy... Let the music go!

Ryan Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 11:50 AM EST

Honestly I think it is all one big misunderstanding. I think you will see a commercial for summer 09 saying that they will have another meeting.
Destiny's Child was completely differnt in my opinion. They did not have their own television show....they only had one single out when they got the new member. DK is way more famous right now and out in the open. They are going to get back together!..........(hopefully because they rock)

Kyree Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 10:30 AM EST

Let's be very clear here. In any employer/employee relationship, there has to be consultation. Period. Instead of calling Aubrey and D. Woods out on national TV, wouldn't it have been better to call them in, have a chat, tell them his problems with their behavior, and THEN, give them a choice to make changes or else?

I know the way Diddy handled this was just for drama and that's just wrong, on so many levels. As someone else said, this effects careers and livelyhood.

Ses Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 09:53 AM EST

I am happy that Aubrey is gone. She is a hot mess that was just holding the group back. D. Woods seemed to have gotten caught up in the mess which was not cool. I think Dawn is the person that is going to make this group great because she seems to be the most real to me. Destiny Child servived through many members and I think DK will be just fine. I am sure that Diddy knows what he is doing. He made the group, and he can break the group, when it comes down to it, it's his money on the line.

Keisha Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 08:40 AM EST

I am with diddy but only to a certain extent. I agree with him when he made a point about Aubrey not being the girl he signed. She has changed and just looking at her she isn't the girl I remember when he first made the band. Also yes diddy is their boss and he doesn't have to communicate anything to them but at the same time if you don't communicate something like that it seems sneaky and underhanded. Aundrea needs to grow some balls and speak her mind. Dwoods has a great voice but she seemed like the oddball in the group to me. Shannon seemed to be positive reguardless. Would I ever buy a cd without Aubrey and Dwoods...I don't think so because like someone stated their not strong enough to go on alone, but together they bring something special to the table. I'll miss you DK...

Tasha Mae Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 08:24 AM EST

Without Aubrey it is not the same. She adds that spice, she speaks her mind, and keeps it fun and real. Nobody else has speaked their mind since the beginning the way she has, and it won't be the same with someone else. It is sad that her and Drea aren't as close as they used to be...but just like Aubrey said they are like family and even families have their bad moments when they don't speak to eachother. I think Diddy is rediculous when he said that it's just like a real family and you have to kick some members out -- no, you work on it and you make it better...that's what a family should do. Diddy if your kids were constantly speaking their minds and you didn't like it, would you just turn your head to them? Just throw them out of the family? You got a lot of people across this world in love with these girls now...I don't blame you if you're doing this for the hype, but if you're really kicking them out, I've lost all respect for you.

kelly Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 08:00 AM EST

This is all for ratings and the show. He wants a reason to continue MTB. Why does he care if the girls get along? They are making him money which is all he cares about.

shalyshal Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 02:13 AM EST

Diddy is full of crap!!! All he does is feed these star hungry singers bull crap! Why keep making the band to only to crush their dreams? because you are who you are! Thats not right....Selling these inocent people a lost dream is what it is! I would'nt wanna roll with bad boy anyway everyone from that label is one hitter quitters! Sorry thats just my opinon! And diddy!!! Oh my goodness This freaking guy just makes a cameo appearences on peoples videos saying, "take that...take that.." What a joke! Just keeping it real!

Eric Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 01:07 AM EST

Just remember what Diddy did with his previous Making the Band group, Da Band.

Beef with Diddy, group breaks up. He claimed he'd be working with Babs and Ness as "Hip Hop's Bonnie and Clyde".

*crickets chirping*

Haven't heard anything from them. Probably won't.

Diddy is the boss, but he doesn't have to behave like a douchebag...which he did with the Danity Kane situation.

Aubrey was concerned and wanted to talk with her label. How is that bad? Although Diddy MAY be able to build DK w/out the two, they aren't Destiny's Child. We all knew that Destiny's Child was really Beyonce and her backup singers. It's not that way in DK. Aubrey and D.Woods were part of what made Danity Kane, Danity Kane. I hope they saved their money...

Matt Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 12:37 AM EST

This is a follow up to my last paragraph because it wouldnt fit...
Aubrey you really need a wake up call because you do need to chill with the "Wheres the boys" because its pretty annoying and im tired of you trying to be like miss bigshot, i respect you speaking up for the group but its not only about you. it was also disrespectful how you kept interrupting diddy during the last 2 episodes, let the dude speak my gosh. This now goes to QUE, u are an idiot! why would aubrey be jealous of dawn, aubrey outshines her and looks better than her. she had concerns about the group, think before you speak because your opinion was very untrue. honestly i hope this event of kicking 2 people was an excuse for a "break" so everyone gets their outside the group roles finished and they can move on and work together to be the group they should be, i love danity kane but i cant see the girls still be the group they once were if they add new people or stay as a trio. hope my words enlighten the blind :P

Matt Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 12:29 AM EST

First of all I'd like to say yea it was sad to see the group break up. Nice job diddy.... NOT. u spoke of the band's future and you pretty much ended it right there on the spot. You were an obvious jerk kicking her out just like that instead of not sitting down with Aubrey alone and tell her the honest reason off cam on her image right now. Yea you brought this group together but you coulda been the mature one and handled it better. Alright now this goes to Aubrey because she definitely isnt an angel at all, funny how she speaks about staying true to urself. thats a load of BULL. aubrey u definitely have not been true to urself. i seen vids of the real aubrey on youtube & television of season 1 and 2 and you completely let fame get you caught up in this bubble. you hung out with the wrong crowd and changed your image. how could you expect to be this role model to young teenage girls posing topless, that makes no sense, i see no class. Aubrey you really need a wake up call with reality.

whatzupw/that Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 11:05 PM EST

I think Puff behaved like a pimp and looked drunk in the finale. What a typical way to hype up ratings that leave so many fans is dissary and terrible way to kill cd sales. Lyrics in most of the DK songs is about promiscuity, sex, and maturity that is not a good role model for youth...as to say Aubrey is to maintain what sort of wholesome image? Aubrey did overstep the boundaries of respect w/how she spoke to Puff, Puff is too impulsive and neurotic and needs to calm down(remember emotions will have you broke!), Dawn seems like oh well...I'm going on way, Dwoods- love to you girl, Aundrea-speak up for yourself...looks like you are about to burst, Shannon-the only one w/the most common sense(the grown up).
I think DK needs their space to be a business w/out the constant changes of Puff...who on earth can be rock stars while constantly walking on egg shells w/the unknown...(reveals controlling mentality of Puff and keeps DK competing w/one another instead of making harmonious music).

Sharde Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 10:58 PM EST

I love danity kane especially d. woods because she seem so hood and her voice is amazing....I really adore her voice and dont see a group without the original 5. They need to get it together real soon....

sarah Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 10:55 PM EST

Diddy you should be ashamed of yourself for calling somebody raunchy and promiscuous..You have 3 baby mommies..you cheated on misa, you cheated on kim; you need a vasectomy

Johnny Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 07:50 PM EST

Dee...you are RIGHT! Right on man....that's exactly what's going on!

Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 04:13 PM EST

He kick out 2 people out of the group that stupid, He should just break up the whole group

Dee Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 03:47 PM EST

I'm not finished...FURTHERMORE, why is it that people need to be reminded that this is A BUSINESS. From the onset, he wanted that group to be trendsetters and HUGE like Destiny's Child...you can't do that with people like AUBREY! I am SO GLAD he put ALL OF THEIR ASSES on blast the other night. I'm glad he told everyone..."you want REALITY TV--you GOT REALITY"! When the cameras were rolling--we had NO IDEA that Aundrea weren't even TALKING to each other UNTIL Puff put their BUTTS on blast. We didn't realize Aundrea can't stand the SIGHT of Aubrey, after they started out as BFFs when they first got on MTB...UNTIL Puff TOLD THE VIEWERS. You didn't realize they didn't even "LIKE EACH OTHER" until Puff made DAWN ADMIT it to US. You got 5 WOMEN who don't like each other very much, are never at events at the same time, jealous of each other and one of them is posing and tongue-kissing Jenna Jamison in public!! Like Puff said, stop making him the heavy and realize WHO'S AT FAULT!! DK!!

Dee Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 03:39 PM EST

I cannot believe what I'm reading in some of these comments. Obviously, the ones that are painfully YOUNG are in support of Aubrey while the older, more mature set obviously understands where Diddy is coming from. PUL-EEZ! Puff did what he had to do to Aubrey/D. Woods just like what he did to Laurie Ann Gibson. He needs people to understand that, although the added notoriety is wonderful for you and your career--but you are THERE to provide A SERVICE. I AGREE WITH PUFF 100%. In every business class, workshop, seminar, etc...they always tell you to listen to the success...and not fall for the follower. I don't fault Puff for Mary J. Blige or anyone else leaving his label...that's fine. That's BUSINESS. He's worked with Mary AFTER she left. Puff has a long HISTORY of finding and profiting from talent. He knows what works and what doesn't. He KNOWS AUBREY O'DAY was quickly becoming a TRAIN WRECK! She has changed so much that I don't even RECOGNIZE HER ANYMORE. He was right!!!

I think it was all a publcity stunt to bring back another MTB. If it wasn't, I have to agree that Puff was right to put Aubrey in her place. Who does she think she is to tell him what he needs to do. Seems to me that she let fame get to her. Now I do think that Puff went about it all the wrong way. If he had problems with Aubrey's behavior, as well as D. Woods, he should have met with them separately and talked business behind closed doors, not in front of the camera. It was not fair to put the other girls on the spot and make them "choose", that was childish. It would be a mistake to disband the group on ego (Puffs and Aubreys). If this happens, everyone loses and that's stupid. Oh, and just on a side note: While I like DK, the boys might not make for good, exciting t.v., but they have more talent and can go a long way if they don't let their ego's stand in the way.

Shannon has always been the positive one in the group and, that is a good thing but, it comes a time when you really have to let it all out and tell everybody what is really on your mind you can do it with respect.Aubrey made an ass of herself again on the finale come on Aubrey you can't make fun of a multi-millionaire when you are broke.There is nothing wrong with speaking your mind but you are going to have to learn a better approach or you will never get anywhere just be more humble and be a lady.With fame comes wisdom you wanted the fame so much you forgot about the wisdom.

Miss M Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 02:55 PM EST

Everyone is forgetting what Puff said "You all know what was happening on the internet" - People are forgetting Aubrey made a sex tape and it was ALL over the internet. She is NOT a positive role model for this group. Many young people look up to them. Her plastic surgery, the whole promiscuous thing, everything she stands for does NOT represent Danity Kane! He had to do this. ALSO, Puff does NOT have to answer to her either. He is the CEO of Bad Boy, and NOT her friend who has to get permission or discuss things with her.

Diana Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 02:52 PM EST

I hate to say it but the band could survive without D Woods but not without Aubrey. She is the entertainment of the band. Just look at how many magazine covers she has done. True her persona may be a little harsh for some people, but as a fan I respect the fact that she is keeping it real. And Diddy did this to himself. He needs to accept the fact that 5 women are going to have drama and if you are showing favortisim to 1 or 2 then yeah that is going to breed even more problems. True he is there boss, but they deserve the respect to know if someone in the group is going to be helping him on his album. To me it just sounded too shady.

Dee Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 01:13 PM EST

Even though there might be favorites and some may not be liked by all they fit together. They had a certain chemistry and to me they are not strong enough in this business to be as successful alone. In this situation to me when one part is missing it just doesn't feel the same. I understand Diddy's stand with Aubrey because she isn't the same person I rooted for to be in the group but she still fit. It's going to be a wrap. Soon enough there will be no more DK.

Re: Aubry O'Day Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 12:13 PM EST

Don't know how long ago this show was actually taped, versus aired, but i read some months ago an article that announced that Aubry landed a role in an "On Broadway" play. Can't remember the name of it at the moment, but I suppose that she began auditioning as a new venture after DK was not an option anymore. I say Good For Her. At least she can make a name for HERSELF doing Broadway.... As for D. Woods, haven't heard a word.

Fatima Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 11:43 AM EST

Hmm, Diddy's management style described as pimp like is very accurate. He controls everything about them including their personal lives. I was disgusted when he made Shannon change her really cute auburn hair color back to blond. He did it in a really cruel way too. The first album sold a lot and they hardly got two singles. There seems to be a lot of self-sabotage going on with Diddy here. He pushes the album hard at first and then drops it despite decent sales. I don't understand any of the decisions with the group to be honest.

B- Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 11:16 AM EST

Danity Kane was hampered by bad management with their first album. They were also the victim of poor promotion. Their CD went Platinum way before Diddy's, yet it got no play. Meanwhile Diddy had 4 videos for that one CD and it hadn't even gone Platinum. So for Aubrey to be vocal is valid. And she may be a "Hot Mess" but at least she is honest, and she brings attention to a group full of bland personalities. As for Dawn going solo, that would be corny because she really can't sing loud enough to be able to perform live and be good. We also already have Ciara doing the speak-sing dance her ass off thing. When Aubrey bumped heads with Diddy, the rest of the girls never backed her up. They just sat there as if their pimp was about to lay the smackdown. That wasn't right.

Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 10:56 AM EST

Diddy gave Aubrey chances all season. He talked to her privately in the first episode about her attitude. All they did was butt heads. I enjoyed some of their music, so I just wonder what will happen.

Necee Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 09:34 AM EST

Margo how could you say all of those things about Aubrey and then say your not going to support the group without her?

Tray, Sean P. Diddy Combs has made millions of dollars, but he started as an intern, do you think he spoke to the president of Arista like Aubrey spoke to him. Apparently not he is where he is, karma is something else.

This was not the first incident they had this season. In addition to that she was changing her wardrobe and makeup. Honestly Day26 is the better of the three acts, but if Dominique and the girl with the sore hip are brought into the group, it's Lights Out for the remaining girl groups out there.

Necee Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 09:25 AM EST

It's a different game in the industry now (it's about time) talent is the answer, no more mediocre people allowed.

Diddy is her boss, plain and simple. She forgot she had to audition to get in the group and could and should be replaced.

I don't know how close you all watch but I told my husband that something was wrong, Dawn was singing all of the leads and that's not how the songs were written.

Do you all recall the first album, when the producer wrote Sleep On It and Dawn's verse was not working, Diddy made him re-write it for her, that was a hint right there. Lights Out is written by her too, maybe Diddy wants someone thats about their business.

tray Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 09:25 AM EST

The band needs Ebony and Ivory.Puff should have pulled Ivory aside like a man and talked to her about the I'm a super star attitude and given her a chance to correct her bad behavior. After all she seems to be a mirror of Diddy himself Mr. Bad A himself. Just because he is a true super star the way he carries himself is equally unattractive. He and Miss Ivory need to realize people like you more when your genuine. And sure Puff is loaded and doesn't have to mind his manners "I GUESS", but he should. Afterall none of them would be anything with out the fans!!!!!

lynn Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 08:42 AM EST

Lets all remember the business man took a group of NO NAME talent and created and molded STAR. Lets all remember he is a business owner first, he is in the business of getting a ROMI return on my investment. Does everybody think the singing and dance and makeup artist come free to this business man. They are in a industry that is very cut throat your hot today and your nobody tommorrow. As he stated you will look back in a year from now and see some other NO NAME talent group who he has invested his time and money on MTV awards getting what should have been theirs. All season Audrey keep saying that we are the STARS and the boys Day26 where not. It going to be interesting to see in about 1 year to see where Audrey and D Woods are in their (entertainment careers)...

jaamisson Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 03:19 AM EST

Correction: He totally had the right to say no. (Sorry)

jaamisson Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 03:18 AM EST

If you really want to understand Diddy's managing style, just ask Mary J. Blige. She'll tell you everything there is to know. All Aubrey wanted to know was that Diddy would communicate with them if any big changes happened. He totally had the right to say know, but DK (Aubrey) had the right to ask. If Diddy feels challenged by his employees asking him to be accountable, then he has some serious issues with insecurity.

ana Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 02:04 AM EST

i think diddy made the right decision you can clearly tell the aubrey thought she was better than the other girls and shes my least favorite from the group. and d woods hanging out with aubrey is doing her no good she is becoming too cocky. now that they wont be in dk i will still support the rest of the girls.

margo Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 01:39 AM EST

SUCKS! I used to LOVE Aubrey--she HAS changed, she looks so much better toned down-lite make-up-natural hair color-(that blonde looks too tacky)
I will no longer support this group at all if they choose to go on without Aubrey and D.Woods. Diddy needs to learn how to deal with people-He had an opportunity to help DK-instead of helping-he destroyed his own group! No BITCHASSNESS DIDDY!!

Anthony Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 11:43 PM EST

Twas only a ratings ploy and will make for an interesting season 4. Day26 and donnie are good but clearly (threw album and digital sales) dk is the moneymaking group. Aubrey may not be the most talented but she is certainly the most famous. It makes for great tv and I can't wait to see the trailer for season 4 with the slow mo of Aubrey and d woods walking in and the other 3 with a look of shock

Ashley Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 10:49 PM EST

Well I honestly feel that Diddy did the right thing by giving Aubrey and D. Woods the boot. It was very obvious that Aubrey has NO respect for Diddy and if she did, she wouldn't have kept cutting him off while he was talking and also talking to him with a lack of respect in her tone. Now I'm also glad that D. Woods is out of the group because it was clear that D. Woods was beginning to become extremely cocky, so home gurl definitely needed to be knocked down a level or two. Its also clear that D. Woods and Aubrey were indeed jealous of Dawn because of her favorable relationship with Diddy and her love life with Que. I think that the group will be just fine with the three of them. Aubrey to me needs to go eat some humble pie and D. Woods needs to realize that she isn't the best singer nor best dancer. I wish the three remaining the best of luck. And ms ebony and ivory can indeed go kick rocks.

Smiley Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 10:32 PM EST

I think the finale show was whack. The whole setup. Aubrey is a train wreck. She is trying to get into that Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan circle. I am pretty disappointed that D. Woods was hanging with that chick.

The reality is that DAWN has the tangibles for the industry, she writes, sings, and dances. So I am not shocked that Diddy favored her and she seems to be intelligent from her answers.

AUNDREA had that "DEAR IN THE HEADLIGHTS LOOK" going.

SHANNON seems as if she is down for whatever when it comes to the future of the group. She's married, so she seems as though she could careless. I do see her doing some modeling if she left the group.

Kudos to Diddy. Yes, he can be jerk, but you have to respect the way he creates ways to make money. He has been making good income off the Making the Band series.

I think alot of the problems may have started with the jealousy of Dawn from other members by her relationship with Q and Diddy.

tina ezzell Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 10:29 PM EST

I used to love Aubrey. She used to have a lot more class.
Towards Diddy- she cuts him off and I don't think he likes
her wise tone. She needs to make some changes or get
some one in there that will make a good impression, have
class and dress awesome. I can see where Diddy is coming
from...TOTALLY. The image Aubrey is showing doesn't look good!

Heather Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 09:49 PM EST

Personally, I really am angry at how everything ended. I really liked Aubrey, and to be honest, I think Diddy didn't like being told he did something wrong. He likes to be 'the boss' and when he was called out I think he got offended and didn't like being disagreed with. I'm in agreement with Aubrey about communication and how the label should let everyone know what's going on with the members because it's better to be up front than undermining and manipulative even if its not meant to be that way, it's better to be honest. The way Diddy acted rash was immature and his statement to Aubrey about being "humble" should be redirected towards himself. His attitude was petty and childish and he needs to learn how to work with people instead of being a dictator. I believe that Dawn and Aundrea were being rude by the way they didn't say anything or verbally acknowledge Aubrey and Shannon was very mature, I respect how she remained professional. All in all, it was greatly disappointing to me.

brett Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 08:32 PM EST

Aubrey and D.Woods have to be in the band. I'd rather have all of them or nothing. I think it's 30% reality and 70% PR stunt. Especially with the announcement of bonus episodes to come.

Fatima Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 08:27 PM EST

I'm not buying it because of how classless the whole thing has been. I know Diddy isn't the most tactful, but this is embarrassing and disrespectful to fans to do. We deserve to know what's happening or else they should have kept it secret until they knew for sure.

D Woods will be missed. I want her back because she was the most talented in my opinion. Aubrey was pretty gross, but she was what got people talking. I think it is horrible of Diddy to jeopardize the careers of the girls for obvious ratings attempts. And it isn't fair to fans who have supported them. It's obvious they don't really like Diddy and it's because he controls every part of their careers and doesn't care for them at all.

Daniel, Belfast Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 08:19 PM EST

I think the US needs to get some quality girlband music from the UK again in the form of Girls Aloud and the Sugababes. Their music trounces Danity Kane anyday.

Liz Goode Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 08:16 PM EST

no! I did not beleave a word of it. It was all a set up. However, diddy is just a fool. I is clear that the girls have problems. But he used it to have a bang of a final show. But you don't use young people who trust you with their life. What a A-- of puff.

yoyo Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 07:55 PM EST

Man I ain't mad a diddy. Look at how much money he is spending on that group. I think they will be better with just the three of them. Kick rocks Aubrey

Kim Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 07:55 PM EST

I thought Puff acted like a jerk and controlling and self centered. When ever you have a group of women together and outsiders saying stuff women naturally get jealous. If Puff truely believed in the girls he should of tried to help or get a motherly figure to help and give guidance.

kaylahmariee Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 07:17 PM EST

i feel that dk is not dk without all 5 of them..even tho i really didnt liek aubrey liek taht because she changed herself so much...they still are part of dk..her & d...like ugh yess the finale was pointless and def. did let mad peopel down seing the rest of that tmeeting !

Used 2B DK Fan Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 07:06 PM EST

The finale of MTB4 was very upsetting. Puff has previously told Aubrey that she was the "LEADER" and during the auditions, it was clearly evident that AUBREY stood out from the rest as the most talented. Even then, she was outspoken. I don't think DK will be the same without her and D. Woods. As for Puff, I think he sould reconsider--and maybe not be so "controlling" over the group.

It looks evident that he feels he has lost some "control" over Aubrey, which contributed to her dismissal. I believe her comments at the Live Q&A was HONEST and heartfelt, and Puff's rebuttle telling her that she needs to "humble herself" showed that he is not too happy of not being able to control her. Shannon, Andrea and Shannon are the "quiet" ones of the group and "listen" to him rather than speak their minds.

I wish them all the best but I truly believe that without Aubrey and D. Woods, DK will NEVER BE THE SAME.

Alex Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 06:56 PM EST

Aubrey was my favorite. I do not think she was disrespectful to Puff. I think he completely overreacted and made a mistake. I doubt I will watch Making the Band again. The only others I liked to watch is Que and Dawn. The rest are boring.

nyc2caligal Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 06:34 PM EST

Diddy loves drama=ratings=another season. How much of this was rehersed and how much of it was real is the question. Either that or something undisclosed happened during the season and he waited until the season finale to bring it up. I did not appreciate his attitude either, but then again he is a marketing genius so once again his name is on everyones lips

BC Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 06:14 PM EST

Aubrey was kicked out for turning into a outlandish sexpot (which wasn't the vision Diddy had for her when he put her in the group). D-Woods left on her own accord, though Puffy facilitated it.

VANESSA Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 06:11 PM EST

I'M VERY UPSET AND STILL SURPRISED AT EVERYTHING BUT I HOPE THEY ALL COME TOGETHER AND WORK IT OUT THATS ALL PUFF IS TRYING TO SAY SIT DOWN AND HANDLE YOUR PROBLEM LIKE WOMEN INSTEAD OF LITTLE GIRLS IN HIGH SCHOOL. I LOVE DANITY KANE AND I HOPE THEY PULL IT TOGETHER FOR THERE FANS BECAUSE IT'S NOT GOING TO BE THE SAME IF THEY REPLACE ANYBODY

latoria Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 05:46 PM EST

Why dis u broken up danity kane group?I lvu dantiy kane?

Marie Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 05:29 PM EST

Just curious as to why the two girls were kicked out of the group...does anyone know?

Danny Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 05:05 PM EST

Aubrey was never my favorite but now that she is gone I don't think DK will ever be the same eve more so without D. Woods. Puff thinks he is God and always makes things bigger than they really are. Obviously this could have been handled behind closed doors but of course it's all about the "reality" show. I believe Shannon and the rest of the remaining members that they are in shock because when do the executives even clue them in. This is all probably just made up by MTV to continue the show. I think musically DK came into their own on this record and it was a huge improvement from their debut album. Just look at the success of "Damaged". And for Puff to ruin that just for publicity or to make more sows is ridiculous.

kerri Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 04:35 PM EST

I'm disappointed that this is the way the show ended. First off I think the drama between the girls is ridiculous. This is a once and a lifetime opportunity they really should make it work. I think Puff is acting like a tyrant and needs to chill. This group has had a lot of success and he's disappointing a lot of fans.His decision was rash and he may end up kicking himself later. Look at how long it took him to make this group. I wish the show offered some insight as to where the group is going.

Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 03:58 PM EST

I am not sure what to think of the finale. I was expecting a resolution or a path for the group and there was none. What next?
