With fanfare and celebration, hip hop icon, actor, record producer, fashion designer and entrepreneur Sean P. Diddy Combs received a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

P Diddy has roped in best pal David Beckham to help his £2million extravaganza on Friday night go with a bang. The bash – to celebrate Diddy getting his name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame – will feature…

10 private jets on standby to whisk his nearest and dearest to a £10m mansion in Beverly Hills.

Five different custom-made Sean Jean outfits: a tux, a smoking jacket, a pimp suit, a top hat and tails and a pyjama combo for when Diddyman flags.

£200,000 worth of luxury French Ciroc vodka and bubbly flown in from NY.

300 white lily arrangements.

£200 goodie bags including Estee Lauder Unforgivable Black perfume.

A close pal of the star told us: “It’s a huge honour for P Diddy to be recognised in Hollywood.

“He came from Harlem and on Friday the creme de la creme of Hollywood will salute him.”

The man himself said: “You can get a lot of things but when you see those stars on the ground… well that’s something I can’t even say I dreamed of.”

Festivities extended into print:

Sean “Diddy” Combs has taken over Hollywood’s top trade paper, Daily Variety, with no less than 17 full-page ads congratulating the hip-hop mogul on his Hollywood Walk of Fame star honor.

Diddy unveiled his star right in front of Los Angeles landmark Mann’s Chinese Theatre on Friday.

As well as the 17 ads, from the likes of MTV, BET Networks and fellow mogul Antonio “LA” Reid, there are also personal paid-for tributes from Aretha Franklin, who calls the Walk of Fame honor, “A Star for a superstar,” and superproducer Dallas Austin.

Variety itself pays tribute to Diddy with a seven-page spread honoring all aspects of the music businessman’s life.
