Did Puff Get Obama Tix? Oh Yes He Diddy

You may have heard Diddy is groveling for four measly tickets to the Inauguration of the century. You heard wrong.

Not only does Puffy have tickets to Obamapalooza, we're told he got 'em straight from the top.

His peeps tell TMZ, "The story is ridiculous and untrue. Diddy was offered tickets by the Obama inaugural committee because of his work on the campaign trail with Jay-Z, Mary J. Blige and Kevin Liles. He never asked for tickets and he was never asked to pay for them."

Says P.D. himself, "I am very grateful to be a part of this moment in history. I'll see ya'll at the inauguration."

Can't wait to see what other so called celebs come out of the woodwork demanding to be at the inauguration.

This country needs a real president, not a person answering to Hollywood. That inauguration will be a shameful joke for America.

Wonder if Diddy is going to use his private jet this time since fuel costs have gone down, or is he going to slum it and ride commercial like all us commoners?

RIGHT. I worked on the campaign and I didn't get any tickets. Why don't they just call it like it is- He got them because of who he is and not for any "campaign work" he did. What a bunch of bs.

You can bet Diddy, Kanye and all of the other rapping thugs will be there celebrating. The taxpayers? Working to pay for all that Obama will demand.

Sean is a dillusional individual with an ego bigger than his brain! I'm sure he doesn't even know how to pronouce inauguration!! This ego tripper has made money doing what? Bad Boy has nothing but boring, un-original singers, rappers. Go figure! He thinks he is such a big shot with his fancy rides and little wanna be "king" lifestyle! He has no idea what royalty is and how a true blue blood lives his or her life! He will never witness it so I guess this poor bastard can keep pretending all he wants. Live a life you can only live in a dream DIDDY! When some poor fool has to change his name every other year, doesn't that say something about a person's lack of self-esteem??? All these STUPID F-ing rappers like Lil wayne and the list goes on for miles.. they have such idiotic nicknames. Yo Diddy, I know you read TMZ everyday you egocentric FOOL. You're money AIN'T nothing without a little class and ANYONE who has class doesn't go by DIDDY, PDIDDY whatever the hell you're called. If it was up to me, I'd name you "it" or "thing". Dumb A(#$
