Having been involved in the entertainment business for nearly two decades and being a successful mogul as he is, Sean 'P. Diddy' Combs will have his name cemented with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on January 11, 2008. Reports stated that the Bad Boy Records mogul let out the news in a phone call to Jamie Foxx, an established singer and actor, on his satellite radio show, The Foxxhole, on December 21.

On the occasion, he exposed his overwhelming feeling on knowing about the fact. He said, "I'm from Harlem, New York, so to get a star in Hollywood is just mind-blowing. You can get a lot of things but when you see those stars on the ground...that's something I can't even say I dreamed of and to be getting recognized for it is definitely something I'm gonna have my whole family out there for."

Upon receiving the star, Diddy will be joining other Hollywood big names, including Will Smith and Queen Latifah. In the meantime, the ceremony of the star dedication will be held before Diddy's debut performance as Walter Lee Younger in "A Raisin in the Sun", an ABC telefilm to aired on February 25, 2008. He had previously portrayed the character on the Broadway version back in 2004.
