Kourtney Kardashian recalled attending one of Sean 'Diddy' Combs' birthday parties at TAO nightclub in 2001 when she was 'socked in the face' by a woman
Kourtney Kardashian previously claimed she was 'socked in the face' by a random woman while attending one of Sean 'Diddy' Combs ' birthday parties in 2001. At the time, long before the Last Night rapper was put on trial, he rented out TAO nightclub to celebrate his birthday with a host of stars.
In an old clip from Khloe Kardashian's 2016 show, Kocktails with Khloé, Kourtney, 46, recalled the horrific moment during a casual chat. "I got socked in the face cuz I was waiting in line for the bathroom at TAO, which Diddy rented out the whole restaurant. It was for his birthday," she said.

Kourtney told the story with talk show guests Diddy and Kylie Jenner and said his invitations were sent out in the form of a CD as she admitted he 'went all out' for the party.
"I remember somebody getting socked [in line at the bathroom]," Diddy responded. Kourtney went on to explain how she was waiting in line at the bathroom when a girl 'cut in front' of her and turned to violence after the socialite told her to wait her turn.
The star, who is married to Travis Barker, added: "I was like, 'Excuse me, I'm next.' And she literally just went, like, boom right in the face,' Kourtney said. 'I didn't know what to do. Nobody was with me. I was by myself."
After the woman left, Kourtney said she went into the bathroom stall and cried before rushing out to find her sister Khloe.
Khloe joked she tried to search for the woman to 'beat her up' for hurting Kourtney. During the same chat, Khloe said Diddy was 'known for' his lavish parties.

She said: "When you think of a party or a good time you think of Puff. We've been known to party with you a few times."
Meanwhile, the 55-year-old hip hop mogul is currently facing a number of serious charges, including racketeering conspiracy, sex ­trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution.
He was arrested in September and strongly denies all allegations made against him. He has been in prison since his arrest, and a number of bail requests have been rejected.

Last week saw his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, take to the stand to testify as she detailed the abuse she was subjected to by him.
Singer Dawn Richard, who was part of the MTV show Making The Band that was produced by Diddy, appeared in the witness box on Monday. Cassie's former friend Kerry Morgan also took to the stand on Monday.
Meanwhile, his former assistant David James and Cassie Ventura's mother Regina Ventura among those who gave evidence on Tuesday.
James testified that he saw the rapper take drugs and provided him with baby oil, lubricant and condoms for his hotel rooms. James told the court that Diddy would stay with women including ex girlfriend Cassie Ventura. Cassie's mother made a heartbreaking claim in court, telling the jury she took out a loan to pay Combs as she feared for her daughter's safety.
