P Diddy has claimed that he is to spend time with Matt Helders from the Arctic Monkeys when he returns to the UK tomorrow.

Diddy will play his first UK show for five years when his new band Diddy-Dirty Money perform in Glasgow on Wednesday evening.

NME reports that Diddy is keen for the Arctic Monkeys drummer to join him on stage for a performance, following the development of a friendship between the two.

"He's gonna come to the show, he'll be hanging out with me," Diddy said.

Helders previously played alongside Dirty-Diddy Money in a one-off performance on Jonathan Ross's chatshow in June.

The new hip-hop group consists of Bad Boy Records founder Diddy along with former Danity Kane member Dawn Richard and singer-songwriter Kalenna Harper.

Dirty-Diddy Money are to release their debut album Last Train to Paris in December.
