Ronald McDonald to Be Named Diddy’s Bitch

On this special day, the 420th day in the Age of Diddy, the splendiferous one himself has news.

Found on yahoo.com:
MIAMI - Diddy will soon be adding some sizzle to Burger King's marketing efforts. Hip hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs has agreed to join Burger King Corp.'s promotional efforts as the world's No. 2 hamburger chain reaches out into the entertainment, fashion and music world, the Miami-based company said in a statement Tuesday.

Known in the past as Puff Daddy and P. Diddy, the artist known as Diddy is set to appear in an upcoming Burger King advertisement campaign. Financial terms were not disclosed.

"Sean 'Diddy' Combs is a pop culture icon, and we're thrilled to be able to collaborate, using the breadth of his talents as an artist, entrepreneur and change agent to impact and inspire our guests," said Russ Klein, president of global marketing, strategy and innovation at Burger King.
“I'm having it my way on this album, and it's been a great journey for me, so I'm grateful for partners like Burger King Corporation that are helping me bring a fresh sound to my fans," Diddy said. "They share my passion for being tastemakers and giving the people what they want."
So many comments in my head – must get them out as quickly as possible.

How does Burger King plan to reach out into the fashion world? Will Sean John be offering a new line for the Whopper sized consumers? Will those cardboard king hats become haute couture?

“Known in the past as Puff Daddy and P. Diddy”? Despite his self-proclaimed name change, isn’t Diddy known in the present as Puff Daddy and P. Diddy as well? If I say “Puff Daddy” or “Puffy”, will people just not know who I’m talking about?

How is the Burger King Corporation helping Diddy bring a fresh sound to his fans? Are they in the studio with him? Telling the glorious one which songs to steal – er.. sample?

“Diddy will soon be adding some sizzle.” Oh yeah, a white person wrote that line and was damn proud to do so. In addition, if it’s flame broiled is there sizzle? Probably there is, I’m just equating sizzle with frying.

Diddy admits that he has a passion for giving people what they want, further showing his Christ-like qualities. Cross over children. All are welcome. All welcome. Go into the Diddy. There is peace and serenity in the Diddy. Carol Anne - listen to me. Do NOT go into the Diddy. Stop where you are. Turn away from it. Don't even look at it. Ahh.. Sorry, I let that one get away from me. Don't know what came over me.

Are there any official agencies that monitor who can be called change agents or tastemakers? I’m not saying that Diddy can’t lay claim to such titles. Hell, Diddy can start calling himself Baron, Lord or Messiah and I’m down with that. But what about the wannabes? What’s stopping me from saying that I’m a tastemaker (no matter how much Pineapple juice I drink)? Plus, is Burger King really a tastemaker? I mean, they didn’t invent the hamburger. They just hopped on the fast food bandwagon. It’s not like I follow their lead in making any purchasing choices. Burger King is just a house of lies.

“The World’s No.2 Hamburger Chain”? To quote the late pop culture icon and tastemaker, Rodney Dangerfield, “Always look out for No.1, just don’t step in No.2.”

And so, the Age of Diddy continues…

Wojr’s Week in World of the Hip to the Hop

As we enter this 395th day in the Age of Diddy, wojr.com turns its gaze to the world of hip-hop (At least, what wojr’s white ass believes to be the world of hip-hop).

Bobbie Brown and Whitney Houston managed to sustain fourteen years of marriage. That’s quite an accomplishment. Of course, it is easier when Angelina Jolie isn’t chasing your man, but fourteen “Crack is Whack”, batshit crazy years of marital bliss is nothing to thumb your nose at. Even to wipe off the cocaine.

Fourteen years, man. I don’t know about you guys, but that makes me feel:
But it’s all over now. From eonline.com:
Being Mrs. Bobby Brown no longer appeals to Whitney Houston.

The "So Emotional" singer has filed for divorce from her husband of 14 years, citing irreconcilable differences, her rep, Nancy Seltzer, confirmed to E! News.

The court documents were filed Friday in Orange County, California. Though the filing was technically for a legal separation, Seltzer said Houston was referring to it as a divorce, as that was her intent.

However, Brown's attorney, Phaedra Parks, emphasized that the split had not yet reached that stage.

"It is a legal separation. It is not a divorce or a divorce petition," Parks told the Associated Press Wednesday.
You got admit Brown’s tenacity but I think there’s another suitor competing for Houston’s attentions.

Found on accesshollywood.com (via some website I fail to recall):
The New York Post quoted Boof as saying [Osama] bin Laden told her [Whitney] Houston was the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen.

Boof said he even talked about spending a lot of money to go to the U.S. and meet her

She said he wanted to give Houston a mansion and he'd be willing to break his color rule and make her one of his wives.

As for Houston's husband Bobby Brown, Boof said bin Laden talked about having him killed.
Who knows? This separation might just be an effort on Whitney's part to save Bobby’s life?

“Run, Bobby! Don’t let Bin Laden get you. Run to Diddy, he’ll protect you. Wait, don’t take the crack with you! That’s my crack. Osama, pop a cap in that--”

Sorry, let that get away from me there, but speaking of Diddy-

Found on eonline.com:
ANOTHER NAME CHANGE: Sean Combs agreeing to stop using the name Diddy in the U.K. as part of a settlement with British music producer Richard "Diddy" Dearlove, who sued the rap mogul for unfair competition. At least he has plenty of other names to fall back on.
Now that’s just cold. Some English Dick (his name is Richard) is trying to bring the Age of Diddy to a premature halt. Didn’t he see what happened to Tupac?

I’m not worried though. The Diddy is strong. He can protect Bobby Brown from Osama if he so chooses. But he can be merciful, too. The Diddy can be kind. It’s what makes him Christ-like.

Besides it’s only England.

That’s all for this week in the hip to the hop. Next week, we’ll try to track down Bobby McFerrin whose year of retirement was up on August 15th. Time to get back to work, son.
