LONDON, May 31 (UPI) -- Sean "Diddy" Combs wants to return to Britain for a second musical tour, but wants to bring rapper Snoop Dogg with him, the U.S. rapper says.

The 38-year-old "Press Play" star said after enjoying his last musical tour of Britain, he was eagerly attempting to organize a new tour with his fellow rapper of various British locales, The Daily Mirror said.

"I can't wait to come back to the U.K.," Combs said Friday. "I have such a great time there. I want to do another tour there soon. Last time Snoop wasn't allowed in the U.K., but I'm rooting for him to make that happen."

Combs also said he wants to have British singer Leona Lewis, who won the third season of Britain's "X Factor" TV competition, perform on his next album.

"I want that girl on my next album," Combs told the Mirror. "I'm a huge fan. Not only is she so, so beautiful, she has a great voice. She is extremely talented, and it's great she's from England."
