NEW YORK — Call it a Diddy double take. Just two weeks after partying in Marrakech at a birthday fête thrown by the King of Morocco, Sean Combs threw himself another bash Monday at the Supper Club.
An eclectic mix of
celebrities, including Tweet, Carl Thomas, Joe, Patti Labelle, Puff Mama Janice Combs, Lady May, "Ripley's Believe It or Not" host Dean Cain, Ivana Trump, designer Zac Posen, Fab Five Freddy, as well as Jermaine Dupri and his date, Janet Jackson, all braved the cold weather and Diddy's strictly "sexy" dress code to wish Puff a happy 33rd.
Inside the rented nightclub, revelers danced alongside scantily clad go-go girls to the sounds of DJ S&S. No birthday party is complete without a "Happy Birthday" sing-a-long, and Puff was not only serenaded by the paparazzi as he strolled down the red carpet, but Mary J. Blige and Patti LaBelle also sang to their favorite music mogul on the venue's stage.
A touched Puff assured the partygoers that he "loved each and every one of" them — thanking the crowd for supporting him through "trials and tribulations," before encouraging everyone to "drink until the lights come on."
Along with the drinking, the dancing, and the hard work of looking fabulous, the packed partygoers buzzed about the latest P. Diddy rumor — will Puff's next party be a White House inaugural ball? Diddy's rep, Nathalie Moar, assured us that a possible "Puff for President of the United States" campaign was just a rumor.
But when asked directly, the number one Bad Boy remained coy, saying, "I'll have to get back to you on that one."

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
Is that and dating J-Lo enough to run for president?
Oh, please. Jennifer Lopez dumped his ass. His last album wasn't the "million seller" he hoped for. His fifteen minutes are almost over.
Remember for the limo libs...it is for the chill'run
I fear P.Diddy will be forcing himself on humanity for much longer than you think. After all the large portion (by far) of his income does not come from his own 'music' sales but from the production he does for others. Add his clothing line to the mix and you will notice that most of his worth (between 250 to 350 million depending on which source you use) is bound to perpetually increase unless he falls into some rut (eg jail, Suge Knight, etc).
I dare even say his 15 minutes are just beginning ....and may stretch for a long time to come!
As for his presidential ambitions ....i pray they remian just that ...ambitions! The reason is that although Puffy is quite hardworking (this might come as a shocker to most but they guy is actually a chronic workaholic ....the only thing about him is that he also plays hard, which makes people think all he does is play! But essentially he is almost obsessively workaholic) i doubt he would be able to stomach the travails that come with being president! After all just because one is the head of a multi-million dollar company (and is himself worth hundreds of millions) that does not automatically translate into POTUS ability.
Hence it would be best if P.Diddy stuck to his industry and left his political ambitions purely in his raps!
Why? I think it would make for a very intresting dem primary. LOL
I am assuming he is a dem. ;-)
..... Mah fellow Americans, brothers an' sisters, ah want y'all to give up now for th' vahce-president, mah main man......Coolio...... show yer love now......
