WHO’s the next Black bond?

It shouldn’t come as a shock that we may one day see a Black 007 on the big screen. We’re already getting a Black president, why not a suave and cool super-spy to protect us from those bent on ruling the world illegally.Enter three entertainers who want to fill Bond’s shoes after Daniel Craig’s gangsta spy stint is up. Up first is Akon, who has Pussycat Dolls lead singer Nicole Scherzinger picked out to be his Bond girl should he make the cut.

If all else fails, Akon says he’ll come out of his own pocket to make his Bond fantasy a reality with a movie version of his own. He could get T-Pain to play Q and make a bunch of vocoder/Auto-Tune inspired gadgets to bring the bad guys to their knees with too much use.

Jamie Foxx is saying he would have no problem taking on a British accent for the role as he would “put a little swing in it. A little Hip-Hop, you know.”
Not only that, but the Oscar winner would keep it real by switching up Bond’s favorite drink for something a bit different. “Maybe not drinking martinis, but drinking some Hennessey maybe,” Foxx joked with Access Hollywood. “Bond would drink dark liquor.”

If these guys are serious, they had better catch up to Diddy. The rap mogul has already started his campaign for the Bond role by using the ad for his new I Am King fragrance as a screen test for the part.
