Justin Combs has taken to Twitter to address the controversy regarding his football scholarship to UCLA.

As Gossip Cop previously reported, critics have complained that Combs, son of music mogul Diddy, doesn’t need or deserve a $54,000 scholarship, given his father’s $475 million fortune.

Combs, however, sees things a bit differently.

There’s a controversy surrounding the full athletic scholarship awarded to Diddy’s son Justin Combs, by UCLA.

Some are questioning whether it’s right that the 18-year-old defensive back, who in November announced he would play Division 1 football at the university, be given a $54,000 scholarship, considering his father’s $475 million fortune.

Diddy‘s son, Justin Combs, has committed to play football at UCLA.

“Playing Division I football was a lifelong dream of mine, and through hard work I was able to achieve it,” said the 5-foot-9, 170-pound defensive back for New York’s New Rochelle Iona Prep in a statement.

Combs added, “I am a living testament that with a strong relationship with God, family, and hard work dreams do come true.”
