Diddy’s White parties vs Freak Off parties
Ever since the Bad Boy record producer became embroiled in serious allegations that have now landed him behind Brooklyn bars, several Tinsel Town figures have spoken out regarding their past attendance at Diddy’s parties as videos started surfacing, though the details surrounding his alleged “Freak Offs” remain murky.
While DiCaprio and others may have attended parties in the early 2000s, they assert that those events were not part of the alleged “Freak Offs,” suggesting a clear distinction between past celebrations and the serious allegations now facing Diddy.
According to reports, these gatherings would kick off after Diddy’s famous “White Parties.” When the A-listers headed out, a more private and wild celebration would begin in the back rooms, with Diddy and a close-knit group of friends taking centre stage.
Celebrities who have spoken so far about Diddy’s party
Ashton Kutcher calls Diddy’s party ‘weird memory’
“I’ve got a lot I can’t tell,” Kutcher said in a 2019 video when asked about attending one of those infamous parties. “Can’t tell that one either. … I’m actually cycling through them. Diddy party stories, man, that was some weird memory lane thing.” In 2009, Ashton Kutcher was spotted at Combs’ infamous annual white party with his then-wife, Demi Moore. Earlier media reports also highlight his support for Diddy at various public events. In a resurfaced video he even declined from offering more insight about the parties.
Khloe Kardashian recalls running into Justin Bieber
In a recently resurfaced clip from Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Khloé told her sister, Kourtney, “I got on a plane at 5:30 AM. Well, this party… I think half the people there were naked… You would have loved it!” while referring to Diddy’s party.
When Kourtney inquired about who accompanied her, Khloé casually listed the attendees, including her friends Diddy, Quincy, and a 20-year-old Justin Bieber. Despite various videos of Diddy with the young pop star, many speculate that Bieber may have been one of the victims of the disgraced music mogul.
Leonardo DiCaprio breaks silence
“Leonardo DiCaprio has absolutely nothing to do with any of this,” a source close to the Titanic star told Daily Mail following Diddy’s arrest. The insider admitted that while the actor attended a few parties in the 2000s like several others, he was never a part of the alleged ‘Freak Offs.’ “Leo was at the start of his career at the time, but the star has moved way past his partying.”
Usher on ‘Wild Things’
“I went there to see the lifestyle, and I saw it, but I don’t know if I could indulge or understand what I was even looking at. It was pretty wild; it was crazy,” Usher recalled in a 2016 interview with The Howard Stern Show about his first experience under Diddy’s wings when he was just 13.
“I’ve made it clear that I don’t attend Puffy’s parties or get involved in that kind of stuff,” 50 Cent said in a July interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “I’ve been steering clear of it for years. There’s just an uncomfortable energy associated with it.”
