Being P. Diddy: Fan Breaks Into Mansion to Wear Clothes, Hang Out
We all want an invite to a mansion in the East Hamptons, but some impatient people simply invite themselves. That's what 30-year-old Quamine Taylor did when he decided to hang out at P. Diddy's for almost 24 hours. The weirdest part of this story: Taylor pulled the same stunt at the same mansion over a decade ago.
In fact, Taylor insists that he and Diddy are buddies.
I've actually been going to the house from time to time since 2001. I stay there a lot, but Sean gets funny sometimes about me staying there.
According to Taylor's (certified not sane) story, he's not even a big Diddy fan. He just went to the mansion to get away from the city, and he hoped to stay there for 15 to 17 days. That doesn't explain why he wore Diddy's clothes and slept in his bed.
Although it's worth noting that by Taylor's estimation, Diddy's bed and the surrounding accommodations are no big deal.
I got a good night's sleep, but it's not anything too special. It's just like a three bedroom.
Oh, and Diddy's stylish shirts? Taylor was actually too tall to fit in them.
Before he got caught, Taylor was a surprisingly convincing trespasser, even getting an alarm-company representative to believe he was Diddy's family member after he accidentally set an alarm off. It wasn't until a caretaker stumbled on Taylor that the police were notified.
Taylor is currently being held at the Suffolk County Jail, which is a serious downgrade from his previous — albeit temporary — residence.
