Let's Just Not Call Him AT ALL

Years ago, a young rap artist entered the music scene. He was Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs.

Then, he decided Puff Daddy was too long. He'd just go by "Puffy" from now on.

Somehow that was too crazy so he took back the daddy but shortened the Puff to P. He was "P. Diddy" all of a sudden.

Time went by and that darn P became way too much of a burden so he dropped and it now he was simply "Diddy."

When "Diddy" decided to be a serious actor, he dropped the nicknames completely and wanted everyone to refer to him by (gasp!) his actual name: Sean Combs.

WELL it looks like Sean Combs is back to his old tricks--US Magazine and Perez Hilton (among others) are both reporting that Combs is apparently kickin' it old style (yeah, I just said that) and wants to, once again, be referred to as "Puff Daddy."

Why does this guy think he is so important that he can change his name so many times and we'll all go along with it?
Puff Daddy in the 90s...
Then Puffy...
Then P. Diddy...
Then Diddy...
Then we called him Sean Combs--for quite a while...
Oh and I forgot--Sean John, too!
Now you want us to call you "Puff Daddy" again?

My question is this: who is calling him anything at all lately? Can we say publicity stunt?
