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.
