“If it ain't a Diddy party, it's a shitty party,” Mr. Sean Combs announced to the thousands of partygoers crowded on the dance floor of the Tower Building in downtown Dallas, TX Saturday night (February 5) at XXL and Capital A Entertainment’s pre-Super Bowl Fantasy Party.

The event was a spectacularly indulgent party that brought out the city’s visiting and hometown glitterati.

Wearing a black and yellow Dirty Money varsity jacket in support of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Diddy took the stage with his son, Quincy, in tow and began playing hype man to the frenzied throng squeezed into the sprawling roped-off VIP section and surrounding dance floors.

Puff rapped along as DJ Clinton Sparks, DJ Irie and DJ SNS spinned a medley of Bad Boy hits, including “Hello Good Morning,” “Mo Money Mo Problems” and “It’s All About The Benjamins.”

Peppered in the uber chic crowd, dancing and posing for phone and camera pictures were such big names celebrities as Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees, actress Cameron Diaz, Jersey Shore’s own Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino, Oscar winner Adrien Brody and Mr. Interscope Records himself, Jimmy Iovine, among others.

The venue was lavishly decorated with go-go dancers gyrating on raised platforms and Diddy played the perfect host, rocking with the whole crowd until nearly four in the morning. —Maurice Bobb
