During an interview for The Graham Norton Show in 2011, Sean “Diddy” Combs spoke of the parties he regularly threw at his home. Norton peppered the entertainer with questions about them and was shocked when he learned just how hot things could get.
Norton asked about Combs’ parties, and he responded, “We have a party for everything.” The talk show host then asked about a party in New York City which a fireman had to respond.
Combs joked that firemen usually come because “it’s part of the festivities.” But Norton was serious when he asked, “But didn’t somebody catch on fire?”
“A lot of things happen at these parties. But in the bathroom at the party, in the bathtub jacuzzi with the strippers, one of the strippers’ hair got caught on fire because of the candles.” Norton quipped, “Thank God she was in a jacuzzi.”
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ said of his parties ‘they’re going to probably be charging me’

He continued, “Whenever you bring up a different element into people’s environment, things that broaden people’s horizons, people get intimidated. It’s a lot of people out there that feel intimidated by it.”
Just three years later, Combs told Conan O’Brien his secrets to throwing a “killer party.” These elements included, “Women. Beautiful women, of course. Beautiful men for the ladies, of course.”
Combs added, “You need some water. I don’t know if guys have noticed this but a lot of ladies drink water at parties, so if you don’t have what they need, they’re going to leave. Gotta keep them there. Need locks on the doors.” O’Brien countered, stating using locks on the doors sounded “kinda dangerous,” Combs added it was “a little kinky.”
