Will Smith has seen the memes, and he’s making it clear that he had nothing to do with Sean “Diddy” Combs and his freak-off parties.
During a performance last night in San Diego, the rapper paused his set to lightheartedly address speculation that he was one of the celebrity guests that frequented Combs’ infamous parties, where recent lawsuits have claimed that Combs allegedly drugged attendees and sexually assaulted them.
“The world we’re in right now is really hard for y’all to discern what’s real and what’s true,” Smith told the crowd per TMZ. “I been seeing y’all memes and stuff, you’ve been making memes. I’ve seen the memes. Some of the stuff is funny. But I haven’t addressed any of this publicly but I want to say this very clear: I don’t have shit to do with Puffy, so y’all can stop all the memes. Stop all of that bullshit.”
He continued by explaining that he’d never been involved with Combs’ parties and has enough on his plate to deal with. “I ain’t been anywhere near no damn freak off,” he continued. “I do enough of my own shit, don’t be putting me in other people’s shit. I ain’t been nowhere near that man, ain’t did none of that stupid shit. So whatever y’all hearing, if somebody say that, it’s a damn lie. I ain’t even like baby oil.”
Combs is currently incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. after being arrested in Sept. on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution. Jay-Z is the only other high-profile name to get accused in the flurry of lawsuits against Combs, as he was added to a refiled suit that asserted he and Combs raped a 13-year-old girl in 2000.
Most recently, Combs was sued by three John Does this week who made similar claims that they had been drugged and sexually assaulted by Combs within the last five years.
