You only turn 40 once.
So when hip-hop mogul Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs hit the landmark age, he splashed out on a lavish, star-studded party at the iconic Plaza Hotel in New York.
The father-of-five spent $3million on the ‘party of the century’ at the hotel’s famous Grand Ballroom on Thursday.
In keeping with the black and white theme of the bash, which had been sponsored by his own vodka company, Diddy was presented with a tiered black and white birthday cake featuring his initials on a shield.
Celebrity guests from the worlds of hip-hop and Hollywood gathered for the epic party, which lasted long into the early hours of Friday morning.
The partygoers included Jay-Z, Denzel Washington, Estelle, Kim Kardashian, Rachel Hunter, Black Eyed Peas rapper Taboo and Nelly.
Writing on his Twitter micro-blogging page the morning after, he said: ‘I haven’t had a hangover in five years! But I have one now! What do I do?’
One reveller said: ‘He really pushed the boat out for this one – and then some.
‘It was an amazing party and Diddy was on great form.’
Rap mogul Russell Simmons said: ‘Some people start at 19, [by] 26 they’re done. He’s 40. He’s better than he’s ever been.
‘He’s hotter now than ever. I just watch him. He keeps getting better. He never changes with the hustle. He branches out in different areas, opens new doors. He’s an inspiration.’
Hot In Herre rapper Nelly added: ‘It’s incredible, he’s one of my biggest inspirations in this. He does the most in everything, probably working with the least. He maximizes it to the max. You see somebody doing that, how can you not want to be inspired by it?’
