directed by Brian De Palma. Adding to his roster of
television ventures, Combs joined the HBO family in
June 2005 with the series "P. Diddy Presents the Bad
Boys of Comedy" which features the hottest
up-and-coming urban comedians performing in front of
a live audience.
Sean Combs, the CEO and founder of Bad Boy Worldwide
Entertainment and Sean Combs Enterprises, is
multifaceted entertainment powerhouse. Sean "Diddy"
Combs was recently declared "One of the Most

Boys II soundtrack, which he executive produced. In
2006, Combs released Press Play, his hugely
anticipated follow up album which debuted at the top
of the charts awarding him the number one album in
the country.
Combs’ success in music quickly transitioned into
the small screen. Combs and MTV have always had a
special relationship beginning with his famous
videos and show stopping VMA performances. In June
2003 he teamed up with MTV to find the next big hip

of his label, Sean John Clothing, Combs has been
praised for his innovative and sexy approach to
fashion. His efforts were recognized in 2004 when he
was awarded the prestigious "Perry Ellis Menswear

Fashion Designers of America (CFDA). Additionally,
Combs launched his first fragrance, "Unforgivable"
in 2006 with cosmetics giant Estee Lauder which
quickly became the number one selling fragrance
across America followed by "Unforgivable Woman" in
2007.
In 2007 Combs-- who indirectly helped put high end
liquor on the map through mentions in hip hop songs
and product placements in music videos-- took on the
official job with Ciroc Vodka when he announced a
groundbreaking, strategic alliance with the liquor
company, managing all branding, marketing,
advertising and public relations initiatives for
