MIDTOWN — Sean "Diddy" Combs guests may have partied too much like a rock star.

The hip-hop mogul may get banned from Manhattan’s London Hotel after a model’s hair caught fire Tuesday night in his room, TMZ reported.

Hotel executives are reportedly meeting today to discuss the possible ban after a video of the incident was posted on Ustream Wednesday night.

200 people were crammed into the 2,500-square-foot penthouse to celebrate the release of his new album “Last Train to Paris" when the incident happened, the New York Post reported.

A luxury suite in the London Hotel starts at $799 per night, according the hotel’s website. The hotel also boasts about providing “intuitive yet discreet service.”
