LOS ANGELES: Rap star Sean 'P. Diddy Combs has unveiled his new stage name - a short and simple Diddy.

According to the Internet Movie Database, he had first changed his name from Puff Daddy and Puffy before adopting the name P. Diddy in 2001. He told MTV News, "It's five letters, one word. The name is changed. We made it simpler. We removed the P. The P was getting in between us. We're entering the age of Diddy.

"A lot of my peeps in music been calling me Diddy, so it's not a drastic change for them. But people around the world didn't know what to call me. We was at (Madison Square Garden) rocking with Jay-Z. The last time I was there, half the crowd was chanting 'P Diddy', half the crowd chanting 'Diddy'. We gonna stop the confusion.

"Sooner or later, one of them are going to use their real name and that will be unusual", said the FReeper known only as NCC-1701.

So he's been Puffy, Puff Daddy, and P. Diddy, and now he wants to be called Diddy. Talk about multiple personality disorder.

What I'm trying to figure out is why he keeps saying "we"? "We made it simpler"..... Why the plural? Is his ego so large that he is a plural noun?

Okay, I guess you can be Seven :)

Why doesn't Diddy or whatever the heck is name turn his name into a symbol like Prince did.

Then we don't have to call him anything and he can be irrelevant and hopefully go away.

Is there a universal symbol for feces?

I heard that he made the announcement with Her Perkiness Katie Couric looking on with adoration.

I'm so relieved. I can now sleep easier at night, knowing that a dumb rapper has changed his name again.

The critical questions are what Diddy know, and when Diddy know about it?

The name is changed. We made it simpler

Yeah, eliminating that one letter did the trick. Now I can remember his name.

"It is the return of hip-hop, rock 'n' roll superstars and they call them Diddy. I'm going to start talking in the third person everything." - Combs

Imagine that, someone from that "culture" talking in the third person. What will he think of next?
