Sean Combs is Diddy no more - at least in Britain. The musician and entertainment mogul has agreed to drop the Diddy name as part of an out-of court legal settlement with London-based music producer Richard "Diddy" Dearlove, the law firm representing Dearlove said Monday.
Solicitors Jens Hills & Co. said Combs had agreed to "rebrand his commercial activities" in Britain and would "no longer be able to trade in the U.K. as 'Diddy.'"
Combs - formerly known as Puffy and Puff Daddy - has used the moniker P. Diddy since 2001, but last year decided to be known solely as Diddy>>>
