The recent arrest of Diddy for a variety of alleged crimes, including sex trafficking, has rocked the world. The most explosive allegation against the musical mogul is that he held “freak-off” sex parties in which men and women were allegedly forced to perform sexual acts for Diddy’s amusement. In light of those allegations, pretty much everyone who has ever attended a Diddy party is under an intense spotlight.
That’s a problem because a ton of celebs have attended these parties. Now, it’s worth noting that there’s a difference between Diddy’s regular parties and these alleged freak-offs, so someone simply attending a party doesn’t make them guilty. Nonetheless, the sheer number of athletes who have partied with Diddy leaves us wondering just who knows more than they are letting on.
Which athletes are we talking about? Keep reading to discover the biggest names in athletics who have been confirmed as having attended Diddy’s parties!
Serena Williams
Serena Williams is a great example of an athlete who once hung with Diddy and now wants nothing to do with him. Back in 2003, she attended his VMA After Hours Party in New York City and seemed to have a good time. In fact, you can see in the photo above that posed next to the controversial singer and looked quite happy.
Now, though, she seems even happier that Diddy got arrested. On Instagram, there was a news post about the mogul’s arrest, and Williams replied with something a bit surprising. “And now I hope justice is finally served.” Over 20 years later, it seems she has no love left for her one-time party companion.
Floyd Mayweather
Some celeb athletes are much closer to Diddy than Williams ever was. For example, boxing phenom Floyd Mayweather isn’t just someone who has partied with Diddy. He is also someone who seems to be close friends with the other man, as evidenced by Diddy coming to boxing matches and buying ringside seats whenever possible.
Because of their tight bond, Mayweather has been hesitant to speak out against Diddy, and he made some waves after his recent comments on the Pivot Podcast. There, he described how people shouldn’t rush to judge, saying “P Diddy’s business is P Diddy’s business.” Things got pretty gross when the boxer mentioned how he would feel if his own daughter was part of one of these wild parties. “Even if that happened to my daughter, I would be hurt but that’s a choice that my daughter made.”
Wow. Father of the year, huh?
