Fallen hip-hop mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been in the spotlight quite a bit recently, but not for good reason. The singer and producer was arrested in September 2024 on allegations including sex trafficking and racketeering, and he is currently sitting in jail awaiting his 2025 trial.

Few people have spoken out about Diddy’s situation, and in a documentary from TMZ, R&B singer Ray J claims that some celebrities are paying Diddy’s alleged victims in order to “keep their names out of it.”

Ray J drops a bombshell claim about celebrities who attended Diddy’s parties

Back in the early 2000s, anyone who was anyone wanted an invite to one of Diddy’s famous “white parties.” The parties, which cost upward of $500,000 each, were an easy way to prove you were rolling with the “in” crowd — but that the time, the public had no clue what was going on behind the scenes.

Now that everyone knows about Diddy’s “freak offs” that occurred after hours, celebrities are doing their best to distance themselves from the disgraced mogul. But they’re panicking because nobody knows whether Diddy has them on tape or not. And Ray J just dropped a bombshell claim that some celebs are paying Diddy’s victims to avoid mentioning their names.

“I’m hearing about artists paying victims to keep their names out of it,” Ray J said while interviewed in the new TMZ documentary “TMZ Presents The Downfall of Diddy: Inside the Freak Offs.”

“Here’s what I do know; people do catch and kills all day,” Ray J said. “For the regular world, somebody has a truth, somebody pays you to keep it quiet and hopefully that money you got paid secures your happiness while you watch the lie continue to succeed.”

Interestingly, Ray J said that celebrities are finding alleged victims and offering them money. “I’ll give you the money; please don’t talk,” he said of how the situations were going down.

Suge Knight says Diddy’s ‘life is in danger’

Ray J isn’t the only one who has spoken out about the mogul. Former producer Suge Knight, who has taken interviews from his own prison cell while he serves a 28-year sentence for voluntary manslaughter, has said that he believes Diddy is “in danger” due to how many “secrets” he knows about high-profile celebrities.

“I’ll tell you what, Puffy, your life is in danger ’cause you know the secrets of who’s involved in that little secret room you guys are participating in,” Knight said, according to The Source. “You know they gonna get you if they can.”

Diddy’s trial is set to begin in May 2025.
