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 off 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 of celebrities who joined.
“I never would’ve imagined that the best party I would create and DJ would be from the comfort of my own home,” he captioned a photo of himself. “Homeschool is a thing! Yesterday was absolutely insane. The amount of artists and friends that virtually partied with me far exceeded my expectations. I’m feeling nothing but gratitude.

D-Nice went on to list everyone by name, which also included Jennifer Lopez, Drake, Naomi Campbell, De La Soul, Black Thought, Bun B, Donnie Wahlberg, 2 Live Crew’s Uncle Luke, Russell Simmons, Mary J. Blige, DJ Khaled, T.I., Common, Queen Latifah, Stretch Armstrong, DJ Premier and Erykah Badu.
Frankly, the list is staggering. D-Nice’s Instagram account is definitely one to watch as the coronavirus continues its rampage.
