*Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the creators
of Comedy Central's animated series "South
Park," have called Puffy's "Vote or Die"
campaign "a serious danger to democracy."

"If you don't know what you're talking
about, there's no shame in not voting," said
Stone, whose teamed with Parker for the movie
"Team America: World Police," which hits theaters
next Friday

Parker adds, "Hey, 19-year-old who doesn't
know anything -- you choose!"

A spokesman for Diddy said in response:
"Because of the work that Sean 'P. Diddy' Combs
has done, voter registration is up 250 percent.
Anybody that thinks voting is dangerous for
a democracy is a fool."

Meanwhile, celebrities who have signed on
to endorse Diddy's "Vote or Die" campaign include
Mya, Leonardo DeCaprio, Alicia Keys, 50 Cent,
Ellen DeGeneres, Pharrell, Yoko, Jimmy Fallon,
