Kanye West and Jay-Z reunite, Lauren London makes an appearance, and Mary J. Blige gives a surprise performance. From Beyonce to Cardi B, Taraji P. Henson, Tyler Perry, and more, Sean “Diddy” Combs celebrated his 50th birthday as only he would — the biggest, Blackest, most epic star-studded event at his Holmby Hills mansion in Los Angeles, CA on Saturday (Dec. 14).
Invitations included a voiceover of Naomi Campbell exclaiming, “there ain’t no party like a Diddy party,” per Vanity Fair. There were three ground rules for the party: dance or don’t come, black tie means black tie, project “good vibrations.”
While Diddy’s birthday was actually last month he rescheduled his party to coincide with his ex’s birthday, Kim Porter, who tragically died last year.
