Do NOT Dance in the Back - 
by EdHIll
Yes, that’s right, it's time for another Season of Making The Band 3 with Sean Combs/Puff Daddy/Puffy/P. Diddy/Diddy. And TVgasm will be here covering it all, from recapping the show, to liveblogging from the wrap party at Diddy’s Hampton estate. Why recap Making the Band 3? Well, I had watched previous iterations of the show only infrequently, despite sg-dub's constant insistence that Making The Band 2 was one of his top ten reality shows of all time. And the parody on Chappelle's Show was probably one of the funniest things I had ever seen (at least before the Apprentice Lamborghini marketing pitch). What really turned me around to becoming a devotee of the show (or a “Bander� as I have now nicknamed us) were two things. Watching Sean Combs go on the Today Show to make his surprise "announcement," and the MTV VMA's. When he revealed on the Today Show that his big announcement was simply him changing his stupid nickname, the unintentional hilarity of that was simply off the charts. And as far as the VMA's were concerned, it was just an exercise in massive unquenchable hubris on such a grand scale as to boggle the mind. Never in our American experience have we been blessed with a man with such an inflated sense of his own mediocre talent. I mean deep down Kevin Federline knows that he's just another white trash good ol' boy who hit the jackpot. Granted it's buried underneath years of built-up grime, soot and the smell of a thousand bottles of Olde English, but its there. But Diddy is so far gone that he thinks him changing his name constitutes news, that his silly clothes aren't dumb and that musically he isn't just an overblown DJ. A man such as this is prime real estate in the world of TVgasm. And I am proud to take on the task.
Now don't get me wrong, I don't hate the guy. I reserve that for the Jonny Fairplays and Cappys of the world. I have nothing but the utmost admiration for his undeniably smart business skills. He's created an empire from - well, nothing much, really. I'm sure he's a nice enough guy underneath his inflated ego. And I would never say no to one of his slammin' party invites (if you’re reading this Diddy, you can forward all invitations to me at EdHill@tvgasm.com). But any man who can refer to himself in the third person that much simply cannot escape a full TVgasm workup.
