Diddy trial sparks wild theories, and celebs are worried they are next on the list
Wild conspiracy theories go viral
After the trial, crazy theories exploded online, connecting Diddy to famous people like Obama, Kamala Harris, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and even Prince and Kim Porter. Some even claimed L.A.'s deadly Palisades Fire was started to destroy Diddy's evidence, as per the reports.
Conspiracy theorists believe Diddy used underground tunnels linking his house to places like the Playboy Mansion and Michael Jackson's house.

Justin Bieber fans worry
A video from Bieber's teen years showed him spending 48 hours with Diddy, where Diddy said it was 'a 15-year-old's dream' and mentioned 'going full crazy.' Fans worried that young Justin may have been abused, as mentioned in the report by DailyMail.
But Bieber's rep told TMZ, he was not a victim, and shifting focus away from real victims is wrong. Insiders said the video moments were just for show, and Justin was closer to Diddy's sons, not Diddy himself.
Live Events
After California wildfires hit in January, theories claimed fires were meant to cover up Diddy's crimes and protect his allies. His Holmby Hills mansion survived, while homes 5–50 miles away, including those of other celebs, were destroyed. Ex-government official Catherine Austin Fitts even asked if celebs on the 'Diddy party list' had their homes saved on purpose, according to the report by DailyMail.
Kamala Harris and Diddy
An old 2019 tweet by Kamala Harris praised Diddy for holding a racial justice town hall. Conservatives brought the tweet back during the 2024 elections, saying it 'didn't age well.' Even Donald Trump posted a meme on Truth Social joking if Harris had been to Diddy's wild parties, as per the reports.
Jay-Z and Beyoncé also get dragged in
Singer Jaguar Wright went on Piers Morgan's show saying Jay-Z and Beyoncé were involved in crimes like Diddy. Their lawyers demanded an apology. Piers Morgan apologized on-air and edited out the claims from the show, according to the report by BBC.
Jay-Z was also accused in a lawsuit of raping a 13-year-old with Diddy after the 2000 VMAs, but the suit was dismissed in Feb 2024. Jay-Z later said the lawsuit was 'fictitious and appalling.'
The Smith family targeted
A fake story said Will Smith 'sold' his daughter Willow to Diddy — it used a doctored bed photo. Some YouTubers claimed 'leaked' clips showed Jaden and Willow in bad situations with Diddy. One person even said Jada Pinkett Smith sold Jaden to Diddy. No real evidence exists for any of these claims, according to the report by DailyMail.

Obama gets pulled in
A photo of Diddy and Obama from 2004 went viral after Diddy's arrest. Conservative voice Charlie Kirk suggested Diddy may have 'dirt' on Obama. Diddy first met Obama while supporting Democrats and interviewed him on MTV in 2004, as stated by the reports.
Obama joked with Diddy during that interview, and Diddy backed Obama in the 2008 election. At Diddy's parties, celebs used pills shaped like Obama's face, but no one said Obama attended.
Prince's name pops up too
A rumor said Prince secretly recorded Diddy's crimes and left instructions to release it if anything happened to him. No such video has been found. AI-made 'Prince & Diddy' clips went viral but were marked as fake content, as per the report by DailyMail.
Cassie Ventura, in court, mentioned fleeing a party at Prince's house before Diddy later assaulted her. Prince died in 2016 due to an accidental overdose.
Fake memoir by Kim Porter?
Diddy's ex Kim Porter, who died in 2018, was linked to a fake memoir that said she was abused. The book was called 'Kim's Lost Words: A Journey for Justice' and went viral on Amazon in 2023. Her family said the memoir was completely fake, according to the report by DailyMail.
Amazon removed the book. The publisher, Chris Todd, claimed he got a flash drive of info from 'close sources,' but never proved it. He used a fake name Jamal T. Millwood, which links to a Tupac conspiracy theory, according to the report by AP.
Brittany Murphy death linked?
Online sleuths also claimed Diddy was involved in Brittany Murphy's death in 2009. She died of pneumonia, just like Kim Porter, which started more rumors. Fans pointed out that her husband and ex-boyfriend were friends with Diddy — but there is zero proof of any connection, as mentioned in the reports.
