Snoop and P Diddy may have cancelled the UK leg of their European tour, but the party didn't stop for Dids at a nightclub in London.

The mogul hosted what should have been the after-show party for the hip-hop duo's Wembley show, but Snoop was denied a UK visa forcing them to cancel all their British gigs.

"We just couldn't put on a concert today, but we will be back to do more concerts" - P Diddy

He admitted: "It's truly a disappointing day. But the way we looked at it is that it's a concert, you know, and sometimes things are not meant to be at that moment.

"There's a lot of other things going on in the world. We just couldn't put on a concert today, but we will be back to do more concerts."

Touching on the subject of the recent spate of knife crimes in the UK, he said: "One of the most important messages that we get across to our fans is the seriousness of the guns and the knife violence that is out here and that we're bringing a message of peace.

"We're gonna continue to bring that message and if we can say anything, it is to 'put the guns and the knives down and live on to see another concert, another day'. And we will be back."

The tour resumes with Snoop in Dublin on March 31.
