P. Diddy and Tom Jones have joined the line-up for this summer's Concert for Diana.

The line-up has been personally selected by Diana's sons Princes William and Harry to reflect their mother's musical tastes and their own.

Roger Hodgson, of 70s band Supertramp, one of Diana's favourite groups, will also perform.

Sir Elton John is set to host the special night, which will include performances from Joss Stone, Pharrell Williams, Status Quo, Take That, Rod Stewart, Bryan Ferry and Duran Duran - who were also one of Diana's best-loved acts.

The rapper and Welsh crooner join Nelly Furtado and Will Young, who have also been added to the bill for the July 1 tribute to the late Princess Diana at London's new Wembley Stadium.

Organisers are reportedly trying to convince Dire Straits - another of the princess' favourites - to appear, while the Spice Girls are also rumoured to be reuniting for the concert.

The show - which takes place on what would have been Diana's 46th birthday - will be broadcast in more than 140 countries. The first 22,500 Concert for Diana tickets sold out in minutes of their release in December, and a further 10,000 tickets were snapped up just as fast when they went on sale in April.

Both princes are expected to make an appearance on stage during the five-hour extravaganza.

William, 24, says, "It's got to be the best birthday present she ever had."
