Diddy TV

"Your boy D" and Burger King have come together to bring you Diddy TV, a YouTube channel they "bought," devoted to all things Sean Combs, and a place where he can feature "all his big celebrity friends ... and people that aren't celebrities," too. Sounds awesome, Diddy! One thing, though: YouTube "channels" are free.

Here's a random cross-sample of YouTube viewer responses:

  • hey diddy, i'm not impressed. that was lamer than watching paint dry. go back to the drawing board, thanks.
  • Puff on this you phoney self-serving a**hole. People remember that he got his start overselling concerts in the late 80s at CUNY and that got people killed. This a greedy, image conscious, egomaniac. He cant act he can't sing he can't write and he cant speak English. TURN THIS PUNK OFF.
  • diddy is an idiot.
  • Diddy sucks, why the fuck does he keep changing his name?
  • Diddle is so baller, eating junk food for the good of his own bank account. That's some baller shit right there diddle. Hey P Diddle, you are baller, baller! You gotta buy another bouncing car with the profits from this, that would be baller! Piddle, if I can call you that, you are baller!
  • Okay, maybe not a "random" cross-sample. Something tells us you guys can do better.

    Looks pretty self-important, but that's to be expected when combining Diddy and YouTube. Assuming this will be the last you see of Diddy TV, whom would you rather see with their own channel? We're going with Thom, just for the funny faces.

    I'm assuming you didn't see LisaNova's video response? That was the best one.

    A Pete Doherty channel might be interesting. I'm picturing a huddle of cops and doughnuts, anticipating who he will spray blood on next...then, after the screams and high fives, they'll arrest him and we'll have to wait for the next one just like we wait for Lost every Wednesday. If only we could get JJ Abrams in on this..and a theme song full of timpani.
