Currently dominating headlines and social media platforms worldwide are the shocking news about hip-hop mogul Diddy (real name Sean John Combs) facing allegations of rape and sex trafficking. This case is regarded as even more serious than the Harvey Weinstein scandal and is being compared to the global shock surrounding the pedophilia scandal involving billionaire Jeffrey Epstein. Evidence tied to Diddy’s depraved actions all points to one key detail: the sex-fueled parties disguised with the glamorous name “White Parties.”
Behind the elegant, pristine façade of these parties, reflected in their all-white dress code, lay unspeakable and unimaginable activities. With extensive connections across the global entertainment industry, Diddy would invite A-list stars to these “White Parties,” including Leonardo DiCaprio, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez, JAY-Z, and Beyoncé.
The 14-page indictment accuses him of arranging male prostitutes and forcing women to participate in these parties for the pleasure of himself and his guests. Although the events occurred over 25 years ago, they are only now being brought to light. Throughout this time, numerous artists attempted to courageously reveal or hint at the depravity of these parties, but their efforts largely went unnoticed. Perhaps the most haunting voice came from Justin Bieber.
Justin Bieber
The Canadian pop star, born in 1994, played a pivotal role in bringing Diddy’s scandal into global focus. Having maintained a close relationship with the music mogul for years, Bieber had been supported by Diddy from the early stages of his career. Though Bieber never explicitly spoke out or revealed any damaging information about Diddy, once the scandal surfaced, connections between the singer and his infamous mentor became clear. Bieber’s music video for Yummy, released in January 2020, is now thought to have been his veiled cry for help, exposing Diddy’s sexual games.
When Yummy first came out, many fans criticized it as shallow, but Bieber persistently urged his fans to stream the video. It has now become apparent that the video contained hidden messages about the dark side of the entertainment industry, particularly alluding to details about Diddy’s “White Parties.” Images such as the sandwich, the red cherry on the table, and the act of removing a pink hoodie symbolized Bieber himself as a “meal” at the table, abused and stripped of his innocence.
Other visuals in the Yummy video, like children playing instruments, symbolize young talents like Bieber when they first enter the showbiz world, while the wealthy and powerful guests watching in the background represent Diddy’s parties. The mogul himself once hinted at the “sexual rewards” for attendees of these “White Parties” on Late Night With Conan O’Brien in 2002, which eerily matched the descriptions in Bieber’s video: “A handsome man for the ladies, of course. They need to drink water. I don’t know if anyone notices, but many of the ladies at the parties drink water, and they will leave if they don’t get what they want. I’ve got to keep them there, so I lock the doors.”
Many unsettling details in the Yummy video eerily align with what happened at Diddy’s “White Parties.”
Ashton Kutcher
Film star Ashton Kutcher is known to be close friends with Diddy. In 2019, during an appearance on the popular show Hot Ones, Kutcher was asked about his experience attending one of Diddy’s gatherings. He hesitated and said, “There are a lot of things I can’t talk about, including this… I only kind of breezed through those gatherings. The story about Diddy’s parties? That’s one weird memory.”
Kutcher described his relationship with Diddy as “weird.” They became friends due to their shared love for Punk’d, quickly forming a bond and hanging out to watch sports together. Kutcher’s comment suggests that he too was invited to one of Diddy’s “White Parties” and witnessed or experienced some bizarre memories.
Ice Cube
As a key figure and a power player in the rap industry, Ice Cube knows many secrets within the music business, including the story of Diddy’s infamous parties. During a concert in Las Vegas on September 22, Ice Cube bluntly stated, “W.C. and I never attended any of Diddy’s parties. You don’t have to worry about us; we had nothing to do with those tapes.”
Kelly Ripa
Actress and TV host Kelly Ripa once expressed enthusiasm about attending Diddy’s celebrity-filled gatherings. On a live broadcast of Live! with Kelly and Ryan in June 2023, Kelly eagerly begged singer Mary J. Blige to invite her the next time she visited Diddy’s extravagant yacht. This interaction revealed that Diddy’s parties were well-known across the entertainment and television industries.
Damon Dash
Damon Dash, a prominent figure in the American music industry and co-founder of Roc-A-Fella Records with Jay-Z, quickly distanced himself from any ties to Diddy’s parties. After a photo of Dash and the late singer Aaliyah at one of Diddy’s “White Parties” surfaced, along with claims that Jay-Z and Beyoncé had attended, Dash responded by denying involvement: “I never went to those parties. The truth is, I once went to the Hamptons with Aaliyah 20 years ago, we arrived, met, and then left. Nothing unusual happened at the Hamptons. But let me tell you, a lot of people went to those parties, if you know what I mean.”
Khloé Kardashian
Being part of the wealthy elite and closely tied to the entertainment world, Khloé Kardashian couldn’t resist joining the celebrity-filled parties. Although she has often been dismissed as the “least attractive child” of the Kardashian-Jenner dynasty, Khloé built her own powerful network, including a relationship with Diddy.
On an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians in August 2014, Khloé mentioned attending a weekend gathering with Diddy and singer French Montana in Las Vegas. The most shocking revelation was when she said, “I think half the people at the party were basically half-naked,” hinting that she was well aware of the debauchery involved in Diddy’s events.
Usher
Diddy can be considered one of the most influential figures in Usher’s career, guiding him to success. After the scandal involving the hip-hop mogul was exposed, Usher deleted all related posts on social media and remained silent. However, in 2016, during a radio appearance on The Howard Stern Show, Usher opened up about living with Diddy for a year in the 1990s. He said, “I went there (to Diddy’s parties) to see what that lifestyle was like, and I saw it all. But I didn’t know if I could immerse myself or truly understand what I was witnessing. It was pretty wild and crazy.” When asked if he would ever let his children attend Diddy’s parties, Usher’s face turned pale as he responded, “No way!”
50 Cent
Another rap heavyweight, 50 Cent, has also spoken about Diddy’s “White Parties,” though unlike Ice Cube, 50 Cent took a firm stance against them. “I’ve publicly warned people not to go to Diddy’s parties and get involved in that stuff,” 50 Cent shared during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in July, just two months before Diddy’s arrest.
