Puffy Puts His Spin On Melissa’s Dream Departure

Sean ‘P. Diddy’ Combs was on MTV’s Total Request Live on Wednesday where he hosted and confirmed news that Melissa Schuman had departed from Dream to what he said was to persue an acting career. Puffy seemed to point to her being older as a primary reason, but we know from Sunday’s news that Melissa’s father said “she has been very unhappy for quite some time about things that have transpired in the past and the way things were working out for the future”, and no doubt the turmoil that has had artists dropping from Puffy’s Bad Boy label like flies as it looks for a new home played a major factor as well. Besides, it was widely known that Melissa was the most popular member of the group, so Combs’ claim of a “minor change” difficult to justify. Read on for today’s TRL conversation between John Norris and P. Diddy.

Melissa Schuman Quits Dream

Dream fan site Dream-Online.org reports Melissa Schuman (the tall blonde and most popular member) has quit the group. Her father Jerry told the site, “Its true. Melissa officially resigned from Dream about 2 weeks ago. She has been very unhappy for quite some time about things that have transpired in the past and the way things were working out for the future. This decision was not an easy one and she felt she had no other options.

Melissa will continue to pursue an acting and solo career. Melissa wants most of all to thank her fans for all their love and caring. She also wants to ask that you continue to support the girls in the future and wishes them luck and love.

On a personal note, its been a great experience interacting with you fans. You have been gracious and generous with undying support for the girls. I will be turning over the 4dreamfans.com website to one of the other parents. It will be up to them to decide what to do with it.”
