As new information continues to come out about Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ alleged illegal activities and his “freak off” parties, more and more celebrities are distancing themselves from the Bad Boy Records founder.

Many of the stars who once proudly smiled in photos with Diddy and were quite friendly with him are acting like they don’t know him now while staying quiet and laying low. However, one well-known actor just revealed that she was at plenty of Diddy’s parties. So now the question is: What did she see and hear?

Here’s what Sopranos star Drea de Matteo said about partying with Diddy and why she thinks there’s more to the story than what we know now.

De Matteo admits she was at ‘a lot’ of Diddy’s parties

On Oct. 10, de Matteo appeared on the podcast Sofia with an F where she chatted with host Sofia Franklyn about everything from her days on The Sopranos to doing love scenes in Sons of Anarchy to her rise on Only Fans and attending P. Diddy’s parties.

The TV star first talked about one party she was supposed to attend at Diddy’s mansion but never made it to.

“I never made it to the White Party. I was all in my white outfit. We were in the Hamptons,” she shared, before explaining that she accidentally backed into something with her car that same evening so she decided not to go that night. However, de Matteo admitted that she went to “a lot of [Diddy’s] parties,” but doesn’t remember many of them because she was “drinking all that tequila.”

She also told Franklyn what’s coming out now is surprising to her because it wasn’t “on her radar” that things like that were happening back then. And regarding the timing of allegations coming out recently, de Matteo said: “The word is, it’s all about let’s do it now before the election and this way we can blackmail everybody to endorse a certain someone … That’s the underground news that I’m hearing.”

She then added: “There’s something else going on with this P. Diddy thing, in my opinion.”

More allegations have been leveled against Diddy

On Oct. 10, Judge Arun Subramanian set Diddy’s court day for May 5, 2025. This decision comes after new allegations from 120 accusers were brought against the music mogul.

A law firm that represents at least 50 of the accusers took to Instagram with a statement that read in part: “Some of these brave individuals reported the incidents to the police, others did not. Each individual story is gut-wrenching and heartbreaking. The acts complained of occurred at hotels, private homes, and also at the infamous P.Diddy ‘freak off’ parties. The violations are mind-boggling and can only be described as debauchery and depravity, exacted by powerful people.”

Diddy is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. He has denied the allegations against him and his lawyers say he is looking forward to clearing his name.
