Diddy To Headline Canadian Block Party Festival

Diddy has been tapped, along with DJ Samantha Ronson, to headline the eTalk Festival September 5 in Canada.

The Bad Boy mogul will perform and Ronson will DJ the outdoor block party bash.

eTalk, similar to E! in the states, is celebrating the network's sixth anniversary this year.

Diddy is scheduled to perform in front of thousands, and the festivities will air live on Canadian television Friday September at 8pm.

In related Diddy news, the hip-hop impresario recently had guns drawn at him and his entourage by police in Los Angeles on August 23. The Bad Boy chief's car was pulled over when officers spotted an expired tag. Diddy and his crew got out of their vehicle causing police to pull their weapons.

The incident, however, was resolved quickly. The car was a rental and no citation was issued. Diddy's camp said the LAPD were "very respectful."---LaTisha Robbins
