DIDDY: ‘DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE’

THE FACTS
Diddy discussed the anti-drinking and driving PSA he shot with OK! Magazine

THE SPIN
When it comes to promoting social awareness, Puffy is an innovative force. Don’t believe me? Then look out for the PSA he shot.

As he told OK! Magazine, he didn’t want to do the same old thing. No, not Diddy Puff. He wants to promote social responsibility in a different way – something that would scream, “I’m different.” And if being different just so happens to coincide with your dreams of launching an acting career, well that’s just a coincidence.

He told OK!: “Instead of doing a regular PSA saying, ‘Hi, I’m Sean Combs and I’m here to talk to you for Ciroc,’ I actually shot a scene from a movie, what happens when the music stops and two young ladies leave early because they’re feeling a little tired. I stop them from driving at the door and have my driver take them home, and I ask them what time they’re coming back tomorrow because we’re having a pool party. It’s kind of funny and gets to the point without being overly preachy.”

You see, you can promote personal responsibility and inject your own personal ambition.

Live and learn…and drink responsibly, folks.
