Rap superstar Sean 'Diddy' Combs had to be dragged from the dancefloor at an all night post-Oscars party at Prince's Hollywood home to appear on morning chat show Live With Regis And Kelly.

A husky-voiced Combs was still wearing the Dolce & Gabbana tuxedo he wore to Prince's party for his interview with hosts Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa on Monday morning.

And he confessed, "I was at Prince's house, on the dancefloor, and I got a call from the producer saying I was late for the show. Whoever I was dancing with is still there."
