A soon as I first heard of all this my one and only thought was "Diddy didn't diddle did he? Diddy did."

Diddy? Or Diddy not?

snooggums@piefed.world · 18 pts · 313d

Diddy did.

axexrx@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 313d

Just like Usain Bolt, nominative determinism strikes again.

A bit undercut by Diddy choosing his name though.

Usain Bolt, surprisingly, was born that way.

Eh, his last name is Combs, and you know what those are used for...

I knew Biggie Smalls had a way with words but this is ridiculous

Hold hands and say it like me: The most shady, Frankie, baby, fantastic.

Did Diddy diddle that little dude's doodle?

Uh-huh yeah

When I heard about the charges my first thought was "he wasn't seriously trying to tell the world with his stage name was he?" But I have to suspect that he was. People who do terrible things just want to brag about it and often that's their undoing

He’s Jake the Peg, diddle-diddle-diddle-dum, with his extra leg, diddle-diddle-diddle-dum

cupcakezealot@piefed.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 312d

he should definitely write a song about how he doesn't diddy kids

This man is called Sean Combs.

HikingVet@lemmy.ca · 16 pts · 313d (13 replies)

He has a preferred name.

porksnort@slrpnk.net · 5 pts · 313d (1 reply)

Yes, but Sean Combs is the name they use in court. It’s situational!

snooggums@piefed.world · 7 pts · 313d

That is because it is a legal proceeding which uses legal names unless the judge allows for an exception.

ExtremeDullard@piefed.social · -7 pts · 313d (10 replies)

That's great.

Me, I like other people do call me Superman. Some do, out of pity probably. But most people who actually matter, like my employer, the postal services or the taxman, call me John B. Nobody.

This inmate's name is Sean Combs.

Imagine getting this butt-blasted over someone's preference.

hddsx@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 313d (3 replies)

Is it actually a preferred name or is it a stage name?

Also how did puff daddy become diddy? I never understood that but I guess if I cared more I would have followed it closer

axexrx@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 313d (2 replies)

I just googled that too. Apparently he made the change to P Diddy in 2001 after being acquitted of guns and bribery cases to signify he was turning over a new leaf.

He dropped the P in 2005.

Iirc, the name change was because he wanted a name that sounds less gay.
