Hello, Diddy Puffy Daddy Combs.
Hey.
Love.
It's love now, right?
It's Love, yes.
It's love.
So is it Brother Love or Love?
No, it's just love, Ellen.
There's enough brother in me that we don't need to--
You don't need to add it.
You see me, and you just know I'm a brother.
Love Diddy.
Just Love.
Diddy Love Puffy.
Just Love.
Love.
You know you're going to bring Diddy and Puffy back.
Because you said it depends on how you feel that day.
True.
But however you want it.
Just looking at that pretty watch.
Just wondering if you know how to look at it to tell time?
Yes.
We were out there, waiting for you,
in the alleyway for a while.
Yes.
Yeah, I was a little late.
Yeah, your son got here before you.
Yeah, I mean I was in traffic.
You left before your son.
We took the wrong way.
I see.
Yeah.
It's just pretty--
Do you forgive me?
I always forgive you.
Thank you.
Sorry, guys.
I just love that you're here.
You literally came from your car and groomed yourself on the way
in.
Yes.
That is a professional.
Yes.
Look, there you are.
You're getting dressed in the alleyway.
And you're ready to go.
Because I'm a little nervous and scared,
because you can't come to the Ellen show late.
It's just a known rule.
And so I feel like I'm like, oh, my God.
What's going on?
Look, you're nervous.
Look.
Ready?
Like is she mad?
Go inside right now?
Yeah.
Oh.
Look at the-- it doesn't take much.
You need a comb, and you're good to go.
Listen, you know, anybody who knows me, I cannot be late.
I am always, always early.
That's just who I am.
I'm always early.
But I--
That's my new thing, being early.
Liar.
It just didn't work out today.
Some days it just doesn't work out.
Is that going to be a new thing?
Are you going to try to be early?
Yes, I'm trying to be early.
Are you going to be early for my party?
Yes I am-- no.
No?
You know, I have to arrive fashionably late.
All right.
Not too late, though.
Not too late?
Not too late, please.
What time would you like me there?
I'll tell you later.
OK.
But not too late, because once you get there,
the party really starts.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
I got you.
I promise I'm not going to let you down on this big one.
All right, good.
For real, your shoes and your feet
are going to have blisters.
You're going to be dancing so hard.
I can't wait.
So no.
I forgive you, also, because you were at the Super Bowl.
So you probably have not slept?
Yes.
Oh, let me take my glasses off.
No, I haven't slept.
Hi, everybody.
[APPLAUSE]
As soon as the glasses come off.
Yeah, I mean this is a ritual, here.
I know.
When the glasses come off, you're always, hi, everybody.
It's like the charm sets in.
But were you up all night long at the Super Bowl?
Yes.
Did you see Kevin Hart?
Yes.
Were you with him?
I was doing my own version on the other side of the field.
But you're a football fan.
And rumor has it-- and I think this isn't even a rumor--
you're going to buy the Carolina Panthers.
Is that right?
I'm one of the people that are bidding and looking at it.
I feel it's time for some minority ownership in the NFL,
especially when like 70% of the athletes are African-American.
And I think it's important for them
to see somebody that looks like them in an ownership position.
[APPLAUSE]
I think it'll be good for the NFL and for people as a whole,
you know.
Yeah, and that's a good team.
That's a good team to buy.
You look good.
What's the matter?
You know, sometimes when I'm here, my jacket bunches up.
When I watch it back, I don't like.
So I'm going to make sure my jacket Is down.
[LAUGHTER]
Is it OK, now?
Yeah, I'm good.
I'm good.
I feel like I have everything blocked off
the right way from here up.
And it's a good look.
Yeah, you look good.
You look really good.
Thank you.
So what did you think of Justin's performance
at halftime?
Wow.
I thought it was incredible.
Good, right?
Yeah, first of all, you know I was mad at Justin.
Did y'all know I performed on the Super Bowl, before?
You know when I performed on the Super Bowl?
When Justin performed on the Super Bowl
and had the Janet Jackson thing.
I actually performed before him on that Super Bowl.
Nobody remembers.
Little known Diddy fact.
There I go.
That's at the Super Bowl.
Nobody remembers it.
So I forgave him when I saw him perform at the Super Bowl.
I was just I was so proud of him.
And I remember when he got the call
to do the Super Bowl, how excited he was.
He put a lot of work into it.
He really, really showed us how to put on a show.
He was incredible.
It was incredible from start to finish.
Now, when you did it, were you nervous?
I know that you've got confidence,
and you are a showman, and you've
been doing this a long time.
But when you do a show like that, when you did the Super
Bowl, were you nervous?
No.
No, you take that energy of the players in the sports,
and you get kind of competitive.
And it gets you where you're ready.
And I really killed my Super Bowl show.
It was like the greatest performance ever.
Ever.
Yeah, but then Justin and Janet-- and then boob came out.
And it was over.
It's not fair.
It was over.
It's not fair.
No, it's not fair.
Maybe you'll get another chance.
And you go up there by yourself, then you do it.
You never know.
I hope so.
Let's talk about-- I don't know anything about this.
But you know, I have meetings in the morning.
I learn about my guests and what's going on.
Apparently, there are photos that you cropped people out of.
And I know nothing about this, but tell me what's happening.
I mean, it's this thing in social media called the Diddy
Crop.
And you know I take a lot of pictures
with a lot of different celebrities,
because we're just all family and stuff.
And sometimes, my photography editor--
he doesn't let me know when he's taking
people out of the pictures.
And then, I just found out about this.
And then it became--
OK.
Hold on, that's not the Diddy Crop.
That's the new one.
That's the Diddy Shop.
So what--
Diddy Photoshop.
So you're adding people now?
There were people that were taken away
that didn't deserve to be taken away.
I had nothing to do with it.
It was just like this young kid that works with me.
He wanted a picture of Jay-Z, Nas, and Kendrick.
And so he used his social technology skills,
and that's what he did.
And all my friends haven't been talking to me
for like two weeks.
No.
And do we have the picture of Love walking through,
in the Grammys, holding a bottle of tequila?
What bottle was that?
This is my tequila, DeLeón Tequila.
That's the repasado.
And being that I wasn't nominated--
and I was just there to support Jay-Z--
I decided to have a party in the second row.
Uh-huh.
[LAUGHTER]
