P. Diddy Moonlights On The Home Shopping Network
It looks like Sean P. Diddy Combs’s desire to make as much money as possible knows no bounds … after all, he seems to have no problem resorting to appearing on the Home Shopping Network to peddle his wares in order to make a quick buck. Here is a screencap of Diddy’s appearance on HSN recently as he tired to sell consumers on his line of celebrity fragrances:
P Diddy stepped into the shoes of a home shopping channel presenter to shift bottles of his fragrances. The rapper, who has a $300million urban empire which includes a hip-hop record label, two restaurants, a clothing line and a marketing company, Blue Flame, sat on the sofa for two hours selling his new cologne. The 40-year-old was a natural on the Home Shopping Network in the US and came up with plenty of sales patter. Referring to the I Am King gift set with a free bag, he said: ‘I carry my computer in that bag. We made that exclusively for you guys. You can’t find it any place else.’ He added: ‘You don’t have to pay for this bag. This is my personal gift to you. You can tell your friends that I gave you that bag for Chirstmas and that’s the truth.’ And he went on to insist: ‘This is not a celebrity fragrance. This is a designer luxury fragrance. I went into the fragrance lab and designed this to a particular taste level. I have a very sensitive nose.’ As he pushed fragrance I Am King, he spoke to fans live on air and told Diana from New York: ‘I wish I could just jump through the screen and give you a hug girl.’ He proceeded to give the air a hug. He insisted the scent’s name did not refer to him and his lifestyle but was intended to represent the ‘king in all of us’. ‘If we as men act as kings, we will respect our women as queens,’ he added. ‘This is not about it smelling like me. This is about smelling clean, smelling sensual. It’s for the modern man.’
LMAOOOO! This is hilarious!! I guess it really is still all about the hustle for Mr. Combs. Trust me, I am not mad at the man … he seems to work really hard for all of his success … even if that hard work means he has to hang out on HSN to sell a few bottles of perfume. After the jump, check out a short video of Diddy’s recent appearance on the Home Shopping Network …
Work it out, Diddy. I still ain’t buyin’ your smell (the bag is a’ight, tho) but I can’t hate ya for promotin’ your biz.

This is too funny, I actually channel surfed and found this happening live — but can I just say he was SO AWKWARD. Barely interacted with the host, barely said anything original, but rather, yes and of course responses to what she said and overall just looked really BORED being there. Weird.
