Somewhere Biggie is rolling in his grave.

The man we all prefer to call Puff Daddy who now forces us to call him ‘Diddy’ is staring in a new commercial centered around Detroit Lions superstar wide receiver Calvin Johnson.

The Nike spot features Megatron dealing with the hassle of media and fans (damn us for paying to watch you), making it difficult for the All-Pro to focus on what he loves – football.

No worries though as Diddy is here to save the day.

The Bad Boy mogul decides to call himself ‘Johnson’ (because he doesn’t have enough names already) and will handle all of the chores Calvin needs to do, allowing the real Johnson to do what he does best – play football.

If the commercial sounds incredibly painful and weird, well, that’s because it is. But if you feel like wasting 45 seconds of your day or you just have to watch Calvin (or Johnson), feel free:

Also – anybody watch the guy in the Lions hat waiting to get his shoe signed? Dude took his acting seriously.
