What Can't Diddy Make Cool?

If anyone is an avid watcher of Making the Band 4 like I am, you will know that Diddy has coined a new term and made it not only a household word, but also a fashion statement. During one of the episodes, Robert was beginning to act like a disgruntled woman because he knows he is extremely talented but did not feel like he was getting all the respect in the studio or parts in the song. Diddy came in to have a lil chat with the group and let Robert know that "there will be no bitchassness at Bad Boy", and from what Diddy saw the epidemic had reached Robert. No this term, that is now coined by Diddy, really means nothing but after Diddy defined it, you begin to think about so many situations where that word could apply. It is actually almost fun.

Now let me give you the definition according to Diddy. Overall, it is not so nice actions towards others through words, facial expressions, and/or song. Oh and there are symptoms as well don't you worry. These symptoms include: thinking your better than those around you, not speaking your true feelings, and throwing large amounts of attitude at others.

Diddy has extended this term into a fashion statement by creating t-shirts that are now the hottest thing to buy. There is a picture below, and not going to lie I bought one, it was tempting. This all leaves me asking myself, is there anything that Diddy can't do?

BET Fashion Show

Today, BET hosted its fashion show called RIP the Runway.  I did not get to watch the show but I do like its website.  Click here is the promotional video for the fashion show.   The fashion show has many rap and hip-hop artists performing.  The executive producer for the show is DIDDY.   This show should be very interesting.  The designers for the show are Apple Bottoms, Monif C, Qristyl Designs, Sixx Foota, Rich & Infamous, Sean John, Respect M.E., Zac Posen, Coco Ri, and Amaya Swimwear.
I really like the designs by Monif C,  who says she is a contemporary designer for plus size women from sizes 14-24.   This season she uses many bright colors.  As you see below.

















   




































I also looked at Qristyl Frazier, who specializes in plus-size clothing.  The target age for her clothing ranges from 22-55 and from sizes 12-24.  I also noticed that many of the designers are rapper or hip hop artists.  Sean John is Diddy's line; Respect M.E is Missy Elloit's designs.
