50 Cent slams Diddy after Cassie's bombshell testimony: ‘Crazier than regular crazy'
The trial, which kicked off with jury selection on May 5 in Manhattan, made waves this week when the embattled record producer's ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, took the stand to testify as a witness in the case.
She alleged that the rapper forced her to participate in 'freak-offs' during their on-again, off-again relationship from 2007 to 2018.
The 'Me & U' singer further alleged that Diddy, 55, once made her climb into an inflatable pool filled with baby oil inside of hotel room.
Although Ventura, 38, testified that she didn't want to get into the baby oil-filled pool, the singer said that she did because she feared how Diddy would react if she refused.
'Something that Sean wanted to happen, that's what was going to happen,' Cassie said on the witness stand Tuesday, per People.
The 'In da Club' rapper took to Instagram to slam Diddy over the singer's shocking claims.
'Damn he did all that s–t to go out like this, [shaking my head],' 50 Cent, 49, wrote. 'This s–t crazier th[a]n regular crazy.'
The 'Candy Shop' hip-hop legend also shared two AI-generated images of Diddy sitting in two different inflatable pools filled with baby oil.
This wasn't the first time 50 Cent trolled Diddy over the 'Mo Money Mo Problems' singer's alleged love of baby oil.
Shortly after Diddy was arrested on federal racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution charges in September, the 'P.I.M.P.' rapper again took to Instagram.
'Here I am keeping good company with [The Drew Barrymore Show],' he wrote. 'And I don't have 1,000 bottles of lube at the house.'
In the unsealed indictment following Diddy's arrest, prosecutors claimed that federal agents discovered upwards of 1,000 bottles of baby oil when raiding the record exec's Miami and LA homes in March 2024.
Diddy's defense attorney, Teny Geragos, acknowledged the 'I'll Be Missing You' rapper's 'love of baby oil' on Monday during opening statements.
'You may know of his love of baby oil,' Geragos said to the jury. 'Is that a federal crime? No.'
Meanwhile, Cassie's testimony at Diddy's federal trial came after she sued the disgraced rapper for sexual abuse in November 2023 – although the pair settled the lawsuit for a staggering $20 million just one day later.
Her claims in court this week also come nearly one year after CNN released a shocking surveillance video of Diddy assaulting the 'Long Way 2 Go' singer in the hallway of a Century City, Calif., hotel in 2016.
She testified about that incident after prosecutors shared the full video with the jury on Wednesday.
'How many times had Sean thrown you to the ground like that before?' Emily Johnson, one of the prosecutors in the case, asked Ventura.
'Too many to count,' Ventura, who is currently eight weeks pregnant, responded.

Leona and her pink kaftan conquer Merdeka 118 Tower
18 Aug - Social media influencer Leona has recently become the first woman to have ever conquered the Merdeka 118 Tower. The content creator, who is also the daughter of actor Azhar Sulaiman, did so as a part of a challenge hosted by radio station ERA; where two of its "3 Pagi" show presenters Nabil Ahmad and Radin climbed up the 2,845 steps to the top of the tower. Joining the two presenters were Leona and Muar MP Syed Saddiq. Not only was she the only woman in the group of men, Leona climbed the tower while wearing a pink kaftan. "Leona is truly powerful," the caption on ERA's official Instagram post read. On the other hand, Leona seemed to be taking her achievement in a very relaxed and unserious fashion, as she commented, "Next, ERA will host a special segment for me, right?"

Michelle Yeoh says that despite constant work travel, she and her husband have found ways to make it work
Michelle Yeoh says she didn't have to choose between her career and personal life, thanks to her husband, former Ferrari CEO Jean Todt. In an interview with People published on Sunday, the "Everything Everywhere All at Once" actor spoke about her husband's support for her work and ambitions. "I am so blessed because he's so supportive of what I do. I love my work. This is my passion. He never turns around and says you spend a lot of time away from me, which I have sometimes, but he's very understanding," Yeoh told People. "On the day of our anniversary, I actually was flying." Yeoh met Todt in Shanghai in June 2004. After being engaged for 6,992 days, or around 19 years, the couple married in Geneva in July 2023. Reflecting on their journey to the altar, Yeoh shared the philosophy that shaped their relationship. "What we say is, 'Every day should be a celebration.' Why do we wait for a special day?" she said. She added that Todt shows his romantic side in the way he commemorates their time as a couple. "He doesn't count by years. He tells me we've been together 7,000-[something] days. And if I really ask, he'll give me hours and minutes too," Yeoh said. During a January 2024 appearance on " The Tonight Show," Yeoh called Todt one of the "most patient" people in the world. "And I think that's what we all deserve, it's to have someone who loves us for who we are and what we do. And we have a busy lifestyle, but he's always been so supportive," she told host Jimmy Fallon. Yeoh was previously married to Dickson Poon, a Hong Kong businessman, from 1988 to 1991. During a January 2024 appearance on the "Goop" podcast, Yeoh said she stepped away from acting during her first marriage in order to focus on the relationship. "You know, with our work, we're always traveling. If you're filming outside of the country, it's like, you know, maybe we'll not see each other for a couple of months. And when both parties work, it's hard to find that balance," Yeoh told host Gwyneth Paltrow. However, her inability to have kids was one of the main reasons for her divorce from Poon. Yeoh isn't the only Hollywood celebrity who says having a supportive partner helped keep their relationship strong. In February 2024, Blake Lively said she and Ryan Reynolds agreed "not to work at the same time" when they started dating, so that they could always prioritize their personal lives. In March 2024, Susan Downey said she and her husband, Robert Downey Jr., don't go more than two weeks without seeing each other and their family. A representative for Yeoh did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by Business Insider outside regular hours.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti Kiss on PDA-Filled Yacht Outing in Spain
The Aug. 15 outing near the Spanish island of Formentera gave a rare glimpse into the private couple's relationship NEED TO KNOW Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti shared a kiss during a PDA-filled yacht outing on Friday, Aug. 15 The outing near the Spanish island of Formentera gave a rare glimpse into the private couple's relationship DiCaprio and Ceretti were first romantically linked in 2023 Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti are soaking up the sun in Spain. The actor, 50, and the model, 27, were spotted on a PDA-filled yacht outing near the island of Formentera on Friday, Aug. 15, per photos obtained by the Daily Mail. The couple shared a kiss as they spent time lounging together on the boat and swimming in the Mediterranean Sea, the pictures reveal, giving a rare glimpse into the pair's romance. The couple — for whom traveling and yachting have proven to be favorite pastimes — was spotted spending time together and mingling with a larger group on the boat, the photos show. At one point, they shared a smooch as they sat in the shade, taking a break from the Spanish sun. Ceretti also appeared to place her hand on DiCaprio's backside as they walked up stairs together, one snap shows. Ceretti wore an animal-print string bikini, while DiCaprio sported a pair of black swim trunks. At different points, the pair both wore goggles as they appeared to take a dip in the Mediterranean. Earlier this summer, the pair — who have been romantically linked since August 2023 — were spotted on the way to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding welcome party, which they later attended. On June 26, the actor and model were seen leaving the Gritti Palace Hotel in Venice, Italy, en route to the event, which preceded Bezos and Sánchez's nuptials. DiCaprio, a longtime friend of the newlyweds, wore a dark suit and black baseball cap, while Ceretti opted for a long, neutral dress with textured fabric and stitching down the sides. She had her hair styled in a chic updo, and carried a nude clutch bag. Prior to the rare sighting, a source revealed to PEOPLE that DiCaprio and Ceretti were expected to attend the star-studded wedding. Months earlier, Ceretti opened up about her relationship with DiCaprio in an interview, marking the first time she's done so since the pair were romantically linked. In a cover story for Vogue France (translated from French), the model discussed her dating life with the star, who was referred to simply as a "very, very famous actor" in the feature for the magazine's April 2025 issue. Ceretti revealed that the pair first met "in Milan,' but said, 'I prefer not to go into details.' Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human-interest stories. She also shared her stance on the potential risk of being recognized for her relationship with DiCaprio rather than for her own career. "As soon as you're in a relationship with someone who has a larger following than you, you become 'girlfriend of' — or 'boyfriend of,' for that matter. And that can be extremely annoying,' she told Vogue France. 'Suddenly, people are talking about you as so-and-so's girlfriend who was so-and-so's ex. So, it's not nice to think that you can't love whoever you want, because of the labels people need to stick on you.' Ceretti also said that dating someone whose star is as large as DiCaprio's is 'something you learn.' 'If what you're experiencing is real, if you know you love each other, then there's no reason to be alarmed,' she told the French outlet. 'Because love protects and gives confidence."
