The party was held at a club in Las Vegas and Combs invited the “Hit Me Baby One More Time” pop star to the soiree, as well as singer and music producer Dallas Austin.

“Sean was there and he brought Dallas Austin, Britney Spears,” Cassie testified. “I think those were the two people that stand out to me.”

Cassie previously explained that until that birthday, Combs, then 38 and 17 years her senior, was just her music producer, but when he kissed her that night, their relationship began shifting toward a romantic one.

Photos from the party show Paris Hilton was also there.
