It seems the bad blood between Diddy and former protege Shyne has been put to rest. The two snapped photos together during Paris Fashion Week.
"Me and Shyne Po front row at Kenzo," Diddy tweeted
Shyne, who changed his birth name from Jamal Barrow to Moshe Levi Ben-David, is now an Orthodox Jew and was dressed in traditional Hasidic clothing.
The former Bad Boy artist and Diddy had a famous falling out following their 2001 trials in which Shyne was convicted of first-degree assault, for shooting Natania Reuben in the face inside a New York nightclub in 1999.
Diddy was also at the club with then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez. He was acquitted of gun possession and bribery charges in connection with the 1999 shooting.
After Shyne's release from prison in in August 2009, he was immediately deported to his home country of Belize. He is now believed to be living in Jerusalem.

Police in Tempe, Arizona have updated the number of people wounded by gunfire outside of a Nipsey Hussle concert to 14. They also say the shooting involved rival gangs.
"We're very fortunate that no one was killed,” Lt. Mike Horn told 3TV News
As we previously reported, Nipsey was supposedly scheduled to perform Friday [March 2] at The Clubhouse. At around midnight gunfire rang out leaving those 14 people shot, 2 are still listed in serious condition.
Police initially thought there were two shooters, but after the arrest of one individual they now say there were a total of three people firing weapons.
The suspect behind bars is facing 14 counts of aggravated assault and one count of assisting a criminal street gang.
Nipsey released a statement regarding the incident on Saturday and denied that he was scheduled to perform at the venue. It's uncertain how his name got caught up in all of this, but you can read his statement below.
My deepest thoughts and sympathies go out to the victims and their families who were affected by the tragic event that took place last night in Arizona, and I pray for the speedy recovery for anyone involved.
Contrary to current media reports, it’s important note that these shootings did NOT happen inside a venue, concert, or show in which I was booked to perform, and at the time of the incident, I was in my hotel room.
I grew up on the streets of south central Los Angeles and have witnessed many tragedies in my lifetime. I never glorify any situation like this and think it is disgusting. Any fan of my music knows that I strongly oppose gun violence, and that I represent nothing but peace and progress through hard work… that anyone can overcome adversity no matter what your social status in life, which is clearly addressed on my latest release, “The Marathon Continues.”
Many people will wrongfully attribute this incident to the hip-hop culture, which is purely and simply false. The alleged shooters were not ticket holders for my performance. Regardless, this incident is a tragic reminder of the circumstances that face our community every day, and my heart and prayers go out to the victims of this, and all the other senseless acts of violence occurring every day in our communities.
- Nipsey

Rihanna stopped by the Jonathan Ross Show for a chat and performance while in the UK recently.
During the interview segment Riri discussed the competition that exists between female artists like herself, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Adele and Beyonce.
"It'll always be a competition," Riri said. "And that's why I feel like women are becoming so dominant in music right now because we're very competitive beings. And we cannot stand to see another woman do better than us. That bothers us a lot. As much as you [men] have egos, our egos are a little bigger. We're just a lot better at hiding them."
Check out the rest of the interview below as Rihanna talks about being sexual during her live performances, being single, getting more into acting and watch her live performance of "Talk That Talk."

2 gunmen opened fire outside of a nightclub in Tempe, Arizona Friday [March 2] moments before West Coast rapper Nipsey Hussle was scheduled to perform. 13 people were wounded. 2 of them hospitalized in serious condition.
"It just came in spurts...pop, pop, pop, pop," one witness said of the gunfire. "Then you see everybody running - a couple more shots - everybody running. It was pure chaos. I would never come to The Clubhouse again. This aint what I wanted to spend my Friday doing. Dodging bullets, or recording somebody else on the ground getting shot waiting on the ambulance to get there."
Police say they aren't sure what set the gunmen off. Sgt. Steve Carbajal told AZFamily.com that it may have been caused by "some sort of altercation."
They are looking for two young black males seen running away from the shopping plaza where the concert venue, The Clubhouse is located.
Nipsey tweeted about the incident several hours after it went down

Pics After The Jump
We've all seen nip slips, but vagina slips are some next level sh*t.
Adrienne Bailon, former member of Disney group The Cheetah Girls wore a see-through dress to Escape To Total Rewards in New York the other night. While posing for pictures on the red carpet her lady parts were on full display. That probably shouldn't be a surprise given the fact that the dress was see-through and she didn't wear any panties, but according to Bailon it wasn't a publicity stunt.
She was contacted the next day by Russell Simmons, who said the singer was in tears. You can read her statement below, as well as check out the pics in question.
The wind blew and despite what other girls may do, this is really a terrible accident to me. I’m really upset, but I’m even more upset about what my parents might think. I want to be known for my talent. I love the idea of being sexy, but I’ve never been in this business to sell sex, I’ve been in this business to sell my talent. The truth is, when you look at the pictures, you don’t realize that the wind really did blow my dress, and I don’t really know what else to say about it.
