Ashton Kutcher Allegedly ‘Terrified’ He’ll Show Up in Diddy’s Tapes, Source Says
Hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs and Ashton Kutcher have a legendary friendship. Kutcher and Combs often talked about how close they became through the years after first meeting when Kutcher planned to put Combs on the MTV show, Punk’d. Now, in the wake of Combs’ 2024 arrest, Kutcher allegedly feels “terrified” that Combs possessed video footage of him at parties.
Ashton Kutcher is allegedly worried about showing up in tapes that Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs had
Sean “Diddy” Combs and Ashton Kutcher often talked about their close friendship. They became friendly after Kutcher tried to “punk” Combs on the MTV show Punk’d. When Combs caught wind of Kutcher’s plan, he called Kutcher and warned him not to. Later, Combs and Kutcher discussed partying together, with Kutcher co-hosting one of Combs’ infamous White Parties in 2009.
Unfortunately, Kutcher may be involved in Combs’ current court case. Federal agents arrested Combs in September 2024. Combs pleaded not guilty to racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. His infamous parties are at the center of the case, as allegations suggest that Combs held sexually explicit “freak-offs” late into the morning. The “freak-offs” allegedly included famous names and were filmed by Combs.
A source told In Touch Weekly that Kutcher feels the heat. “Ashton needs to pick his friends better,” the insider said. “The spotlight has turned on him for reveling in his relationships with a couple of Hollywood’s most notorious stars. He’s going to have a tough time salvaging his career after this Diddy mess!”
The insider added that if Kutcher “saw” or “participated” in the freak-offs, “it would sound the death knell of his career.” Kutcher’s career already allegedly took a hit after defending Danny Masterson in the past. “The word is he’s terrified he’ll show up on Diddy’s videotapes!” the source continued.
Mila Kunis allegedly banned Ashton Kutcher from speaking to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs
Before Sean “Diddy” Combs’ arrest, Homeland Security raided two of his properties in March 2024. By April 2024, sources claimed that Mila Kunis wanted Ashton Kutcher to keep his distance from former friend Combs.
“There is no way in hell Ashton or Mila will be showing any sort of public support for Diddy right now,” a source told DailyMail.com. “Regardless of Ashton’s long history with him, he has distanced himself from Diddy since Cassie’s lawsuit, and even more so in the wake of the new ones.”
The insider added that Kunis won’t allow Kutcher “to be in any sort of contact” with Combs. “He is expecting a subpoena as they have been good friends for 20 years,” the source continued. Kunis and Kutcher allegedly aimed to focus “on their family and their marriage” while blocking out this news.
The ‘Punk’d’ producer allegedly ‘regrets’ his friendship with the hip-hop star
Years before Sean “Diddy” Combs’ arrest, Ashton Kutcher had no issue discussing their friendship during interviews. However, a source recently claimed that Kutcher “regrets” his close ties with Combs.
“Ashton absolutely regrets his friendship with Diddy considering what has happened,” an insider told DailyMail.com. “He feels lied to, betrayed, taken for granted, and manipulated.”
The source said Kutcher “fears” what will happen with Combs’ investigation. “He feels Diddy would have no problem lying to authorities and tossing out some of his famous friend’s names if it meant it could get him out of jail,” they added.
