Though Sean "Puffy" Combs beat bribery and weapons possession charges, TSG isn't expecting New York's celebrity set to salute the tainted rapper's March 16 acquittal. They'll probably still run the other way when Puffy's posse (now minus fall guy Jamaal "Shyne" Barrow) approaches. But Puffy hasn't always been radioactive. In fact, it was only two years ago when a cavalcade of stars happily appeared in a vanity video Puffy sent around inviting cronies to his birthday party (one such invitee leaked the video to TSG).
As icky, embarrassing productions go, the 5:37 gem below ranks up there with "Ishtar" and "Battlefield Earth."But the cast in Puffy's ego stroke is nothing short of spectacular:
Danny DeVito, Oprah Winfrey, Chris Rock, Pat O'Brien, Magic Johnson, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Robin Leach, Ellen DeGeneres, Sammy Sosa, Mariah Carey, Todd Oldham, Wyclef Jean, Stephen Baldwin, Will Smith, Clive Davis, Ben Stiller, Joan Rivers, Isaac Hayes, Tommy Hilfiger, Derek Jeter, Veronica Webb, Ananda Lewis, Kim Porter and Christopher Combs, Joe Perry and Steven Tyler, Ron Perelman, Lil' Kim, Donald Trump,Penny Marshall, Justin Combs, Pauly Shore, Kimora Lee, Shawn and Marlon Wayans, Russell Simmons, Michael Bolton, Heavy D, Kurt Loder, Christina Ricci, Stephen Dorff, Jon Bon Jovi, Tyra Banks, and Shaquille O'Neal.
