Diddy’s a Star!
So Diddy is keeping the hollywood/hip hop legacy going strong. According to an Allhiphop.com article Sean Combs became the first male rapper (Will Smith received a star in 2007) to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on May 2, during a ceremony that drew the largest crowd in the event’s history. Fans wearing Sean John “Harlem to Hollywood” t-shirts packed Hollywood Boulevard, while fans with posters screamed “Diddy” and “Bad Boy” as they welcomed Combs.
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce announced that May 2, 2008 has also been declared Sean Combs day in Hollywood. “If it wasn’t for the Hip-Hop community I wouldn’t of got this star,” Diddy told AllHipHop.com. “I always love getting recognized for positive things. Sometimes we always get recognized for some things that are negative, [so] to be recognized for something positive is truly a blessing.”
Now if we can just get Run DMC into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
