"Due to an unfortunate miscommunication, I will not be able to make the anticipated trip to Las Vegas on April 15th," Combs said in a statement released by a local public relations firm. "I am flattered the mayor saw fit to honor me with a day and hope to join him soon."

Hip-hop mogul, Sean "P. Diddy" Combs, was a no-show at an event scheduled for Friday inside a Las Vegas hotel-casino. Mayor Oscar Goodman had been set to proclaim it "Diddy Day," but plans were scrapped at the last minute when word came that P Diddy would not be in attendance.

The event at the V Theatre inside the Desert Passage mall at the Aladdin hotel-casino had been billed as part ceremony, part announcement, hinting that P Diddy  would reveal a business venture in Las Vegas.

"I am looking forward to speaking with P. Diddy and seeing what the future may hold for him as far as Las Vegas ventures go and hope to host him in Las Vegas soon," Mayor Oscar Goodman said in a statement.

Las Vegas businessman and producer David Saxe told the Las Vegas Review-Journal that he had been in talks with the hip-hop / rap entrepreneur P Diddy  to develop a nightclub and "other P. Diddy-related ventures," including a restaurant in the V Theatre, but those plans were now on hold.
