Presidential hopefuls Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders, Diddy, Oprah, former First Lady Michelle Obama, Rihanna, Missy Elliott and Will Smith were among the roughly 100,000 people who tuned in to D-Nice’s Instagram Live “social distancing” party on Saturday (March 21).
The Boogie Down Productions O.G. kicked f the festivities on Wednesday (March 18) in an effort to combat the isolation the coronavirus is forcing on people and by the weekend, the event was on fire.
D-Nice wrote about the momentous occasion on Instagram and expressed his utter shock at the number celebrities who joined.
“I never would’ve imagined that the best party I would create and DJ would be from the comfort my own home,” he captioned a photo himself. “Homeschool is a thing! Yesterday was absolutely insane. The amount artists and friends that virtually partied with me far exceeded my expectations. I’m feeling nothing but gratitude.
