Leaked Sean ‘Diddy' Combs tape shows disgraced star enforcing ‘women only' rule
A never before seen video shows Sean 'Diddy' Combs at one of his notorious house parties ordering women onto the dance floor to enforce his 'guys don't dance with guys' rule. The U.S. Sun has exclusively obtained the clip from a celeb-filled private bash hosted by Combs before the Grammy Awards in January 2020. The likes of Jay Z, Jamie Foxx, and Chance The Rapper were at the party to celebrate Combs being honoured during Grammy week. In the dimly lit room inside the star's mansion in Holmby Hills, Combs is filmed wearing all-black clothing with a huge diamond necklace as he stands behind the DJ booth. A crowd of people is seen gathered on the dance floor after Combs abruptly stops the music during the party. Holding a microphone, Combs boldly addresses his guests, telling them, 'We're here to dance. Guys, don't be smoking on the dancefloor, man. 'You ain't got no girl, you gotta get a girl on the dancefloor. That's Combs' rules. 'We dance with girls, we don't dance with guys over here. 'And ain't nothing wrong with that. If you're a guy, you like guys, hey man, it's all good, but you gotta dance, aight.' He then orders, 'But open up that door so I can speak to the people in my kitchen. 'Open the door so I can speak to the people in my kitchen, please. Because we gotta get the people out of the house and into the party.' The crowd is then heard shouting at him to put the music back on, to which he blasts, 'Look, no, you don't do that and you don't yell nothing.' The seemingly homophobic comment comes amid claims Combs drugged and sexually abused men as well as women at drug-fuelled orgies, known as freak-offs. Combs is facing multiple civil suits but has always denied any wrongdoing. The disgraced star himself has never publicly addressed or denied any rumours regarding his sexual orientation. The U.S. Sun has seen the location and time stamp of the videos from the party, showing it was held at Combs' mansion, a 17,000-square-foot estate in Beverly Hills with 10 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. In March 2024, the property was raided by Homeland Security as part of the investigation into Combs. It was put up for sale shortly before his arrest and is still listed for $61,500,000. The party video comes as Combs' trial begins this week in Manhattan, New York, as he's tried over allegations of racketeering and sex trafficking. The male partygoer who filmed the clip and took other photographs of guests at the party is known to The U.S. Sun but wishes to remain anonymous. When asked about the party, he said: 'I got invited to Diddy's house in the early hours of January 26, 2020, through a mutual friend. 'It was pretty dark in there but they had this dance floor with like a 70s disco vibe. 'Some of the celebrities in attendance were Jay-Z, Chance the Rapper, Migos, Ne-Yo, and Jamie Foxx. 'During one of the dance songs, Diddy jumped on the microphone and was saying kind of crazy stuff where he didn't want to see dudes dancing with other dudes. 'I felt that was disrespectful. We are all there to have a great time.' The partygoer said it was his first Diddy party and although he never saw anyone having sex he claimed people were going into back rooms at the house. 'I was offered cocaine a bunch of times, I remember that much,' he said. 'He had a lot of security but quite a few people had their phones out on the dance floor and they didn't say anything. 'Diddy made the speech on the mic about 3am and the party went on until 5am. 'I saw some girls walking around holding hands and celebrities in different side rooms hanging out.' Combs hosted his house party after being named the 2020 Grammy Salute To Industry Icons honoree the day before the awards. He drew a star-studded crowd at the annual Clive Davis pre-Grammy gala on Saturday, January 26, just hours before his private bash. The likes of Jay Z, Beyonce, Cardi B, Lana Del Rey, Ozzy Osbourne, Janet Jackson, and John Legend were in attendance to honour him at the event.

"There was the video showing him beating his ex-girlfriend [Cassie Ventura ] so what makes people think he didn't do that to other random girls?" Diddy locked eyes with us as he entered the courtroom - inside the trial of the decade By Israel S-Rodriguez, Senior News Reporter at The U.S. Sun: The federal sex trafficking trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs began with jury selection on May 5. Combs is standing trial at the Southern District of New York Courthouse in Lower Manhattan - an intimidating federal courthouse where the cases of Ghislaine Maxwell, Donald Trump, and Bernard Madoff, among others, were tried. Once a powerful founder of a music and business empire, Combs has been reduced to a defendant, inmate 37452-054, stripped of his mogul status, and now standing trial on five federal charges with the full wrath of the United States government against him. When I attended Day 3 of jury selection at the federal courthouse on May 7, the buzz around the start of the trial was palpable. Hours before the courthouse opened its doors, more than a dozen reporters and members of the public stood in line in hopes of securing a seat in the gallery for the high-profile trial. As you walk through the glass door entrance of the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse, you are met by bulletproof vest-clad court officers. All visitors must separate their electronic devices from their personal belongings, which are passed through a metal detector. Visitors walk through a metal detector before a court officer hands them a poker chip. The courthouse uses a poker chip system to sort the number of electronic devices visitors are in possession of. Electronic devices, such as Bluetooth-powered headphones, voice recorders, laptops, cellphones, and smart watches, are confiscated before you're allowed to enter the courthouse's main hallway. As about a half-dozen reporters and I waited in the gallery for jury selection, we witnessed how Combs entered the courtroom shackle-free. Combs entered with his hands pressed together, greeted his defense team before he examined the gallery, and locked eyes with reporters and potential jurors. The 55-year-old disgraced Bad Boy Records executive was attentive and engaged with his counsel as they grilled dozens of potential jurors. As jury selection wrapped up for the day, Combs embraced each of his female defense attorneys before he mouthed "thank you" to a handful of supporters in the gallery. Combs' trial is being held on the 26th floor in Judge Arun Subramanian's courtroom and is expected to last for eight weeks. We'll bring it all to you on The U.S. Sun. GRAMMY HONOR Combs hosted his house party after being named the 2020 Grammy Salute To Industry Icons honoree the day before the awards. He drew a star-studded crowd at the annual Clive Davis pre-Grammy gala on Saturday, January 26, just hours before his private bash. The likes of Jay Z, Beyonce, Cardi B, Lana Del Rey, Ozzy Osbourne, Janet Jackson, and John Legend were in attendance to honor him at the event. Several artists including Faith Evans, Ma$e, Lil' Kim, and his son King Combs, also performed a musical tribute. Combs took to the stage and delivered a 50-minute acceptance speech for his award, which Variety described at the time as "rambling and excruciatingly long". He reminisced about his life and career, along with the people who had supported him over the years. Combs also claimed hip-hop and black music have "never been respected by the Grammys", as he ironically accepted his award at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles. Fast-forward five years and Combs' life is very different as he remains behind bars after being arrested in September 2024. Combs appeared emotionless in court as opening statements began in his trial on Monday after the jury, consisting of eight men and four women, was seated. Prosecutors alleged Combs brutally beat his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and threatened to release a video of her at one of his alleged drug-fueled sex orgies, to keep control of her. "So he threatened her and said if she defies her again he will release video of her having sex with male escorts," they told the jury. "Souvenirs of the most humiliating nights of her life. "This is just the tip of the iceberg in 20 years of Combs using his inner circle to cover up crime after crime." Combs is accused of abusing several women and leading Bad Boy Records as a "criminal enterprise" for more than a decade. He was originally being tried on three criminal charges before an additional two for prostitution and sex trafficking were added at a later date. Combs has pleaded not guilty to all the charges. He was previously offered a chance to accept a plea deal, which would have reduced any final sentence and allowed him to leave jail at an earlier date. But he rejected the offer at a hearing, meaning he now faces a more severe sentence if he is convicted. The trial is expected to last at least eight weeks, during which the jury will hear testimonies from three or possibly four of Combs' female accusers. Among these is the rapper's former girlfriend, Ventura, who was seen in disturbing footage being beaten by Combs in a Los Angeles hotel in 2016, which was obtained by CNN in May last year. He can be seen chasing his ex-girlfriend down the hallway before brutally punching, kicking, and beating her. Combs had previously slammed claims he was violent towards Ventura but after the footage emerged he publicly apologized for his behavior in an Instagram video. Diddy's charges explained by a lawyer Former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani explained the set of charges Diddy is facing to The U.S. Sun: "Diddy is facing three charges, or three sets of charges. "The first is racketeering, which you typically see with organized crime enterprises - so the mob, cartels, street gangs -but we're seeing it a lot more in sex trafficking cases. "And you don't need an organization like the mob, as long as it's an enterprise, which is something that consists of two or more people, and they engage in two or more RICO predicate acts, that's enough for racketeering. "Racketeering is a powerful charge because it allows the government to bring in all sorts of evidence of criminal activity, as well as all sorts of people, into that racketeering conspiracy. "And anyone who's a co-conspirator, they're on the hook for any criminal acts committed in furtherance of the conspiracy. "The most serious charge, though, is sex trafficking. "What separates sex trafficking from normal sex? Adults, of course, can consent to any type of sex, no matter how freaky it is. But sex trafficking has one of three elements: force, fraud, or coercion. "And the government is saying that Diddy used force to force these men and women to participate in these freak-offs, and he coerced them by drugging them. "The least serious charge is the prostitution, sometimes called the Man Act, and that's engaging in prostitution using some sort of interstate commerce across state lines. That obviously is unlawful. "Typically, you don't see federal cases for prostitution only, which is why it's the least serious of the crimes." 9 9 9
