The inside story of P Diddy's epic 40th birthday bash 10 years on - from the party planner himself
- Everyone who was anyone was invited to P Diddy's 40th birthday extravaganza at the New York Plaza Hotel in 2009, from Paris Hilton to Oprah and Jay Z. Bronson Van Wyck, the party planner behind the event, called in to discuss how he pulled it off - and why the cops crashed the party. "People say that Andy Warhol was incredible at self-presentation. Sean Combs is a master. In the case of his 40th birthday, he wanted to throw the best party anyone had ever been to, at the same location as Truman Capote’s famous black and white ball. Puffy came to see me before the party started to check how everything looked. All we had left to do was light the candles, but he said, “Bronson, you know what would take this party over the top?” I was thinking, “please don’t tell me.” “If we could make it snow,” he said. It doesn’t snow in October if you’re outside, much less on the third floor ballroom of a hotel, but we managed to find a guy in New Jersey who had the key to a technical storage unit with a snow machine. When people got out of their cars at The Plaza Hotel, there were students from Juilliard doing ballet on the Grand Army Plaza sidewalk. Close to 1,000 people were invited, but everyone in the city wanted to crash. We had a cordon of 50 security guards around the hotel.
