Mr. Bad Boy himself, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, could not keep it together when Barack Obama was announced President-elect Tuesday night.
"I was straight up crying," he confesses. "I was with my kids. It was a beautiful thing. I just thank God my prayers were answered."
A greater gift? It happened on his 39th birthday.
"I don't know why God blessed me by having my birthday [on Nov. 4], but we're here to celebrate 80 percent of Obama being elected and 20 percent my birthday," Diddy told reporters Wednesday night at a celebration sponsored by Ciroc Vodka at Mansion nightclub in New York.
Some of his celebrity guests: Mary J. Blige, Ben Stiller, Cassie, Cedric the Entertainer, and Pete Wentz.

CAST: Julia Roberts has her next role set, and it's a leggy one – though she needn't worry about her shape. The new mom will voice the title role of the spider in the live-action/computer-animated version of E.B. White's classic 1952 children's book, Charlotte's Web, says the Hollywood Reporter. The other voices are no slouches, either: Oprah Winfrey and Cedric the Entertainer (as geese), John Cleese (Samuel the sheep), Steve Buscemi (Rat Templeton), Reba McEntire and Kathy Bates (cows Betsy and Bitsy), and Thomas Haden Church and OutKast's Andre 3000 (slow-witted crows). Dakota Fanning will play Fern, the little farm girl, when filming starts in Australia this month.

SUGGESTED: Following Lisa Marie Presley's televised comments about her 1994-96 marriage to Michael Jackson -- in which she claimed she "saw things I couldn't do anything about" -- Presley could be subpoenaed by prosecutors to testify against her ex in his upcoming trial on charges of child molestation, say legal experts speaking on NBC's "Today" show Tuesday. Under oath, say the lawyers, Presley, 36, could not hide behind the reputed confidentiality agreement she signed when she divorced Jackson.
