Will Smith has joined the list of celebrities addressing the controversy surrounding Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs and the alleged ‘freak off’ parties associated with him.
The acclaimed actor is keen to distance himself from the ongoing scandal.
During a performance at The Observatory North Park in San Diego, Smith took a moment to express his thoughts on the situation.
Since September, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been in custody, awaiting trial on several charges, including racketeering and sex trafficking, all of which he continues to deny.
Following his arrest at the Park Hyatt hotel in Manhattan, a grand jury indicted Combs. Despite three bail applications, all have been denied, as reported by ABC 7.
While addressing the audience, Smith remarked: “The world we’re in right now is really hard for y’all to discern what’s real and what’s true.”
He added, “I’ve been seeing y’all memes and stuff, you’ve been making memes. I’ve seen the memes.”
Smith noted his previous silence on the matter: “But I haven’t addressed any of this publicly but I want to say this very clear: I don’t have sh*t to do with Puffy, so y’all can stop all the memes. Stop all of that bullsh*t.”
He emphasized to the audience his non-involvement in Diddy’s alleged events: “I ain’t been anywhere near no damn freak off.”
Adding humor, Smith said, “I do enough of my own sh*t, don’t be putting me in other people’s sh*t. I ain’t been nowhere near that man, ain’t did none of that stupid sh*t. So whatever y’all hearing, if somebody say that, it’s a damn lie.”
He concluded his remarks by referencing claims in the federal indictment about Diddy’s mansion, saying, “I ain’t even like baby oil,” in jest.
Since his September arrest, Combs is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Combs has maintained his innocence on all charges and is awaiting a trial set for next May.
According to attorney Tony Buzbee, over 120 individuals have come forward with allegations against Combs, including 60 males and 60 females, with 25 being minors at the time of the alleged incidents.
