On Wednesday (May 15), Sean 'Diddy' Combs made a huge announcement on Twitter - he'd be starring as the first black cast member on the hit British series "Downton Abbey!' Fans were excited to catch a sneakpeak of Diddy's BBC performance - but it turns out the entire thing was a joke! Instead, the rap mogul posted a hilarious "Funny or Die" spoof entitled "Downton Diddy" - and it's pretty entertaining... check out the "Downton Abbey" parody below.

Here's the tweets Diddy sent out on Wednesday evening, psyching his fans up for his "Downton Abbey" debut:

@iamdiddy: "MY BIG NEWS: So happy to announce that Im a series regular on DOWNTON ABBEY-my favorite show+i'll be debuting a sneak peek tonight 12am PST!"

@iamdiddy: "Sneak peek from the set of Downton Abbey. Stay tuned for a special preview tonight 12am PST #downtonabbey."

@iamdiddy: "Another shot of me in action from the set of Downton Abbey-cant wait to share the preview tonight!..."

Several fans tweeted Diddy, saying how excited and proud they were for him to snag such an awesome role.

And here's the big release... introducing, Lord Wolcott!

@iamdiddy: "Click here for a preview of my debut on @DowntonAbbey -> (link) Thank you for your support+RT to the world! #DowntonDiddy."

Genius.

(No, this is not real - Diddy was merely spliced into various scenes of the show).

What do Mstars readers think about the "Downton Abbey" spoof? Disappointed that it wasn't real?
