Usher
Popular R&B singer and pop artist Usher gained widespread fame in the 1990s and 2000s for his smooth vocals, dance moves, and hit songs like Yeah!, U Got It Bad, and Burn. During a 2016 The Howard Stern Show radio interview, he recalled a year of living with Diddy in the ’90s.
I went there to see the lifestyle, and I saw it, but I don’t know if I could indulge and understand what I was even looking at. It was pretty wild, it was crazy.
The Scream singer was a teenager at the time. When Stern asked him if he would let his kids attend one of Diddy’s parties, he was quick to retort that he would not.
50 Cent
Rapper 50 Cent has been quite vocal about his disapproval of Diddy for a long time now. It started in 2006 when the former seemed to be referencing the fact that the latter knew about the 1997 murder of the Notorious B.I.G. in his song The Bomb.
In 2018, during an interview on the Drink Champs podcast, the In da Club rapper discussed why he kept his kept his distance from Diddy. He also did not hold back during his interview with The Hollywood Reporter earlier this year. In fact, he is also working on a documentary on the I’ll Be Missing You rapper.
Ashton Kutcher
Ashton Kutcher of all people might seem to be an unlikely celebrity to have spoken up about Diddy. During a 2019 Hot Ones interview, when asked about attending Diddy’s parties, Kutcher said:
I’ve got a lot I can’t tell. Can’t tell that one either. … I’m actually cycling through them. Diddy party stories, man, that was some weird memory lane thing.
So, as surprising as it may seem, it is true all the same that the That ’70s Show actor has also witnessed things at those infamous parties that he did not want to speak about publicly.
Aubrey O’Day
Singer and reality TV personality Aubrey O’Day was mentored by Diddy during her run on the MTV series Making the Band. In 2019, while the rapper was preparing to return on the show, the songstress claimed to be still recovering from trauma. In the interview with Variety, she said:
We were scared to death with what would happen with Puff each day. There was just no room for error. Diddy was one of the most intense people you could ever work with. I experienced everything from race [remarks] to s*xism and a lot of it was scary.
O’Day is a member of the girl band Danity Kane from which she was kicked out of for a while, thanks to the Coming Home singer. Things seem to be better now, but she faced a lot of hardships under his guidance.
Katt Williams
Katt Williams is a stand-up comedian and actor who also came quite close to becoming one of the attendees of Diddy’s parties. However, he seemed to know better and steered clear of it while he could. During a January interview on the Club Shay Shay podcast, he commented on turning down one of those parties:
’Cause P. Diddy be wanting to party, and you got to tell him no. You got to tell him no! I did. See, I got the receipts for everything I’m telling you, that’s why I can say them so freely.
Williams also claimed that he turned down $50 million four times. At the time, he also teased that quite a few celebrities would be getting in trouble if their scandals were to come to light.
