10 Most Bizarre Celebrity Cameos In Music Videos
7. Ben Stiller - P. Diddy's Bad Boy For Life
Just a few years later, albeit in a different millennium, 2001 saw P. Diddy team up with Black Rob and Mark Curry for Bad Boy for Life - the second single from Diddy's The Saga Continues... album.
Collaborating with two fellow rappers wasn't enough, though, as the video saw a plethora of familiar faces appear. From rock stars Dave Navarro, Travis Barker, Tommy Lee and Crazy Town, to fellow rappers Xzibit, Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube, as well as sports superstars Mike Tyson and Shaquille O'Neal, this track packs in a multitude of Easter eggs.
The most memorable, though, happens with a doorbell ring on the three-minute mark as Ben Stiller disrupts P. Diddy's party, and the music video. Here, the track completely stops for a monologue which sees the Meet the Parents star make fun of Diddy's many name changes and warn him over a stray golf ball that the rapper had driven from his roof, before a not-so-subtle hint for a party invite.
The video was nominated for Best Rap Video at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards, but lost out to Without Me by Eminem.
While the music video is lesser seen these days, the track is still prominent on the silver screen, having appeared in the Bad Boys movies - one of which is called Bad Boys For Life - as well as Get Hard, and has been sampled by Jesy Nelson and Mac Miller.
