Sean Combs wanted to a footballer

LONDON - Rapper Sean Combs wanted to be a professional football player before becoming a singer. But his dreams were shattered after he broke his leg in school.

“I never had any aspirations to become a recording artist, producer, music mogul or anything like that. I loved American football. So throughout grade school and high school I was pursuing dreams to become a professional American football player,” contactmusic.com quoted Combs as saying.

“My last year of high school is when I broke my leg, right before my most important season when the scouts come to see you,” he added.
