Puffy—Sean Combs will always be “Puffy” or “Puff” to me—became inspired by his personal assistant who left her small town and began working for one of the world’s biggest entertainment moguls, with a lifestyle unlike anything she’s ever experienced.
According to Deadline, he’s producing a comedy with ABC that’s inspired by her experiences, called The Hustle (that’s a working title).
The show already has a director and producers attached to it who have worked on successful shows and films. Kudos to Puff for landing a deal with a major network like ABC. Plus, the premise of the show, watching a small-town girl cope and get used to his lifestyle, should be fun and interesting.
