Diddy loves changing his name and now he’s upgraded to birthdays!

The hip-hop mogul would have celebrated his 44th birthday today, but he decided to give himself a 12-day delay. According to a statement, Diddy said his true birthdate on November 4th came too early this year and he’s unprepared.

“ATTENTION!!!!! MY BIRTHDAY IS NOV 4TH BUT THIS YEAR ONLY IM CHANGING IT TO NOV 16TH. THE 4TH CAME TO EARLY IM NOT PREPARED! IM TIRED, MY SWAG IS OFF AND BOTTOM LINE IS IM JUST NOT READY! SO LET’S BE CLEAR! I CHANGED MY BIRTHDAY JUST FOR THIS YEAR TO NOV 16th! SHOUT OUT TO ALL THE SCORPIOS!!! #diddyNewBday”

During an interview on his new music network REVOLT TV, the CEO said this is not a publicity stunt.

“I’m tired, I’ve been working on the network for two years, I need a hair cut—my barber’s out the country–I need to workout, I need to go see the dentist to get my teeth cleaned,” he said. “Why I’m doing this is not a publicity stunt, I just want to change my birthday because I’m Diddy and I’m like the Black Unicorn, lion, tiger, bear and I could do whatever I wanna do.”

So in honor of his wishes, Diddy fans should send their happy birthday tweets on November 16th this year.
