Music mogul Sean “P.Diddy” Combs has been romantically linked with his protege, Bad Boy recording star Cassie, and in the past few days, she’s been all over the Internet gossip sites because of leaked explicit nude photos. It doesn’t seem to have hurt their relationship because the romance picked up in intensity during their three-day-weekend Las Vegas vacation.

They turned up at Prive in Planet Hollywood, Jet in The Mirage and Lavo in the Palazzo. Here’s part of the rundown:

Four burly bodyguards and an entourage that included San Diego Chargers Pro Bowl defensive end Shawne Merriman flanked P.Diddy and Cassie when they descended on Jet. P.Diddy ordered two bottles of Ciroc vodka and four bottles of Ace of Spades champagne for the party as the bodyguards went on full-time duty trying to prevent fans from snapping photos of the couple. DJ Que pumped Cassie’s new single “Must Be Love,” featuring Diddy, through Jet’s state-of-the-art sound system. Cassie and Diddy were so pleased with the club reaction, he went to the DJ booth and Que even played a rare underground remix that Diddy produced.

Over at Lavo, Diddy grabbed the spotlight and the microphone, pumped up the crowd and was joined by Cassie and Shawne once again. Also in the party was Jonah Hill, Diddy’s co-star in the upcoming film Get Him to the Greek. My spywitnesses report that Diddy drank Ciroc and spent most of his time chatting at each club with Cassie.
