Diddy claims that Sting makes $5000 a day from I’ll Be Watching You

With ITV Britain's Got Talent set to return to screens tomorrow, long-standing judge Amanda Holden has made a major announcement. The 52-year-old, who is consistently asked what her secret is to her youthful skin, and ageless beauty, has launched a budget anti-ageing range with a major beauty and make-up brand - and the prices rival anti-ageing products from the likes of TK Maxx and Home Bargains.

Catherine Bray Set mostly in England, back before it was officially called England — and centuries before Great Britain was so much as a glint in the eye of James I — director Ed Bazalgette’s workmanlike historical epic “The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die” wraps up the events of “The Last Kingdom,” the Netfix drama series based on Bernard Cornwell’s “Saxon Tales” novels. Playing like “Game of Thrones” with more history and fewer dragons, the film opens with several smaller kingdoms, including Northumbria, Mercia and East Anglia, gearing up for a power struggle exacerbated by the recent death of Alfred the Great, king of Wessex, and worsened by the surreptitious attempts of the Danes to sow discord. 

“Fool’s Paradise” marks Charlie Day‘s feature directorial debut after a successful comedy career. Day co-created the popular sitcom “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” which is still going strong as the longest-running American live-action comedy series.

Diddy last week clarified in a tweet that he was now paying Sting “5k a day”.Both that remark, and the 2018 interview, implied that Diddy was actually sending Sting daily cheques, which obviously isn’t the case. It’s just that whenever ‘I’ll Be Missing You’ is played, the song royalties that are due are collected by Sting and his publisher Universal.But maybe Diddy has insider knowledge on how much that nets Sting and Universal? And maybe with the streaming boom the song royalties generated by ‘I’ll Be Missing You’ are now topping five grand a day.

Diddy had everyone running to their calculators for no reason, it turns out, after the rap mogul revealed there's no truth behind him dishing $5,000 per day for sampling one of Sting's songs without his permission. Diddy on Friday took to social media and let it be known that he was only being «facetious» when chimed in after Sting, in a newly resurfaced 2018 interview with, said rumors that Diddy was paying him $2,000 per day «for the rest of his life» for sampling his song without his permission were true.Diddy now says, not so much.«I want y’all to understand I was joking! It’s called being Facetious! Me and @OfficialSting have been friends for a long time! He never charged me $3K or $5K a day for Missing You. He probably makes more than $5K a day from one of the biggest songs in history.

Diddy is opening up about his friendship with Sting, revealing that the pair are on good terms, even after the rapper sampled his hit song ‘Every Breath You Take’ without permission back in 1997.Following the tragic death of the Notorious B.I.G. Diddy wanted to honor the iconic artist with a new song.

Diddy has backtracked over comments he made in which he said he was forced to pay Sting £4,020 ($5,000) each day for the rest of his life.Earlier this week, the rapper responded to a re-surfaced interview with the musician in which The Police frontman said he received royalties for their hit 1983 single, ‘Every Breath You Take’, which Diddy sampled in one of his most famous tracks, ‘I’ll Be Missing You’.The hip-hop icon was said to have been forced to pay the ongoing fee after sampling the track without permission in 1997.Diddy then tweeted to confirm that he pays Sting “5k a day.”But today (April 7) the rapper took to Twitter to set the record straight and said his previous tweet was a joke.He wrote: “I want y’all to understand I was joking! It’s called being facetious! Me and @OfficialSting have been friends for a long time! He never charged me $3K or $5K a day for ‘Missing You.’ He probably makes more than $5K a day from one of the biggest songs in history.”I want y’all to understand I was joking! It’s called being Facetious! Me and @OfficialSting have been friends for a long time! He never charged me $3K or $5K a day for Missing You.

With every breath Diddy takes, he’s sending out some serious cash Sting‘s way!!

costing Diddy big time. For sampling Sting’s 1983 “Every Breath You Take” track on 1997 Biggie Smalls tribute “I’ll Be Missing You,” music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs is said to be forever indebted to the rock star — to the tune of $5,000 a day. “5k a day. Love to my brother [Sting],” tweeted Diddy, 53, in part, Wednesday, seemingly confirming his eternal obligation to the Police frontman. Neither representatives for Diddy nor Sting immediately responded to The Post’s request for a comment. But in his Twitter admission, Diddy, a native New Yorker, reposted a clip that featured Sting, 71, discussing the perpetual payment during a 2018 appearance on Power 105.1 FM’s “The Breakfast Club.”The tweet, which amassed more than 7.6 million views, came as a correction to Sting telling the morning show host Charlamagne Tha God that Diddy had to pay him $2,000 a day for co-opting his Grammy-winning hit.

A very costly mistake. Diddy revealed that he’s still paying Sting for sampling his song in the ‘90s without getting permission first.

Diddy has been forced to pay Sting £4,020 ($5,000) each day for the rest of his life.The hip-hop icon was forced to pay the ongoing fee after sampling one of the musician’s tracks without permission in 1997.The sample in question was taken from The Police’s hit 1983 single, ‘Every Breath You Take’, which Diddy used in one of his most famous tracks, ‘I’ll Be Missing You”.

Watch the full interview here – https://ihr.fm/2tDV4ZQPosted by Breakfast Club on Monday, March 12, 2018In the footage, radio host Charlamagne the God asked the frontman: “Is it true that Diddy has to pay you USD $2,000 (£1,608) because he didn’t ask permission to sample ‘Every Breath You Take’?” To which the former Police member simply replied: “Yep, for the rest of his life.”Sting – real name Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner – also stated that the R&B icon did ask him for permission to sample the track, but only after he had already released the song.Following the clip of Sting re-emerging on social media, Diddy took to Twitter to not only confirm the statement but also correct the musician on the actual amount he is expected to pay.“Nope.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director John Leguizamo is doubling down on criticizing Universal and Illumination’s animated film “The Super Mario Bros. Movie,” which casts Chris Pratt and Charlie Day in the leading voice roles of Mario and Luigi. Leguizamo brought Luigi to life in a live-action format opposite Bob Hoskins’ Mario in 1993’s “Super Mario Bros.” The actor told TMZ on the day “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” opened in theaters that he won’t be watching it due to the casting. “No I will not [be watching]. They could’ve included a Latin character,” Leguizamo said. “Like I was groundbreaking and then they stopped the groundbreaking. They messed up the inclusion. They dis-included. Just cast some Latin folk! We’re 20% of the population. The largest people of color group and we are underrepresented.”

under Doll’s mask after being eliminated on the show’s “WB movie night” on Wednesday.The 68-year-old singer was dressed in a gray unitard with a sparkly purple dress over it while wearing equally sparkly high-heeled shoes. Prior to his unmasking, judges asked him to provide clues as to who he was.Snider made a comparison to Elvis Presley, a “Guys and Dolls” playbill, and a lollipop before he gave a stunning performance of “Jailhouse Rock.” Robin Thicke, 46, guessed that the singer was actually Gene Simmons from the rock and roll band Kiss while Ken Jeong, 53, guessed it was Austin Butler — who was nominated for an Oscar his portrayal of Elvis. Nicole Scherzinger, 44, guessed that Snider was David Lee Roth while Jenny McCarthy, 50, believed the singer was Iggy Pop.

Passive income, the act of making money from investments, properties, or anything that doesn't involve a lot of work, is a big deal to the kind of finance bros who love to make TikToks about their grindset. Sting doesn't strike me as someone who has ever even heard the phrase "side hustle" and yet it seems he's sitting on a pretty sweet one. Essentially having Diddy pay him $5k a day for the rights to his 1983 single “Every Breath You Take.” That is how much Diddy claims he pays Sting for his role in "I’ll Be Missing You," the 1997 single written in honor of the late Notorious B.I.G.

Sting is raking in the royalties with every breath he takes. According to Diddy, he pays the 71-year-old musician a whopping $5,000 per day for sampling one of his songs without permission. «Every Breath You Take,» written by Sting and released by his band, The Police, in 1983, was famously used in Diddy's and Faith Evans' 1997 tribute to the late The Notorious B.I.G., titled «I'll Be Missing You.» In a newly resurfaced 2018 interview with The Breakfast Club, Sting confirmed rumors that Diddy was paying him $2,000 per day «for the rest of his life» for his use of the song without asking. Sting added, «We're good friends now.» On Wednesday, however, Diddy took to Twitter to correct that number to $5,000 per day. «Nope.
