Sean “Diddy” Combs is a well-connected guy with many pals in Hollywood, however since he was once taken into custody and charged with intercourse trafficking and racketeering conspiracy previous this time, stars appear to be distancing themselves from the disgraced media magnate, staying painfully quiet amid experiences of his infamous “freak off” events.
Just about two weeks prior to Diddy was once even arrested, actor and comic Marlon Wayans admitted that he’d attended enough of events hosted via the rapper, however clarified he was once no longer aware of any nefarious actions being reported in earlier prison paperwork, as he’d at all times reduce the gatherings early.
However some social media customers haven’t been purchasing what Wayans is promoting.
One individual answered without delay to a submit Wayans made on X in 2009, the place he spoke extremely of Combs’ events. “Been doin’ Diddy parties for 15 years and I must say you never let me down Puff,” he wrote, on the while. “Ain’t no party like a Diddy party.”
“You say you left the P. Diddy parties early, I call BS! The truth shall set you free,” the disbelieving person wrote again.
On Friday, Wayans doubled indisposed on his fresh remarks about depart events early – which he shared at the “Club Shay Shay” podcast with former soccer tight finish Shannon Sharpe previous this time.
“Yup! And i still stand by that,” he retorted. “I’ve never seen or been a part of nothing but good vibes and energy with CLOTHES ON! So yeah, and i [am not] rushing to take down old tweets or anything. I ain’t got s— to hide. Period.”
“I [have] been to plenty [of] Diddy parties,” Wayans instructed Sharpe in early September. “I left early. I swear to you.”
“I’ve never seen it,” he stated vehemently, of the issues being described within the information. “Those aren’t the type of parties I go to. I don’t frequent those type of parties, and even if I go, like I said, I’d never seen any of this.”
“When I hear about it, [I’m like] ‘When did that happen? At what time did this go down? Cause I was there [until] 2-3:30. You mean at 3:32? So they waited for me to leave?’ Like ‘All right, good that Wayans n—-‘s gone. He talk too much,’” he joked.
Wayans did admit that he’d “seen drugs” at the ones events, however was once unfamiliar with all of the alternative experiences.
“I watch how I conduct myself, cause I’m not just doing this for me. I have to answer to God. I have to answer to my brothers. I have to answer to my legacy. I can’t act a certain way. I have to answer to Black people. I have to answer to kids who want to be like me. There’s a lot for me to answer to,” Wayans defined. “I owe it to my fans to walk through this life and be an example, as best as I can.”
A consultant for Wayans didn’t right away go back Fox Information Virtual’s request for remark.
In paperwork exempt via the U.S. lawyer, Diddy and his workers would allegedly “intimidate, threaten, and lure female victims into Comb’s orbit, often under the pretense of a romantic relationship. Combs allegedly then used force, threats of force, and coercion, to cause victims to engage in extended sex acts with male commercial sex workers that Combs referred to as, among other things, ‘Freak Offs.’”
Diddy is still held on the Metropolitan Detention Middle in Brooklyn, the place he awaits a federal trial. He was once first of all denied bail via the courtroom, best to be denied a 2d while all through an attraction.
Following the fees introduced via the U.S. Lawyer’s Place of job, Marc Agnifilo, Combs’ protection, exempt a remark received via Fox Information Virtual.
“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Agnifilo stated. “Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community. He is an imperfect person but he Is not a criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”
