Will Smith has firmly denied any involvement in the recent allegations surrounding music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, addressing viral memes and rumors that linked him to the controversial figure. During a performance at the Observatory North Park in San Diego on December 12, the Oscar-winning actor took a moment to speak out against the online trolling and clarify his stance on his past association with Combs, who is currently in jail awaiting trial on serious charges including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitut
In a video shared online, Smith tells the sold-out crowd: “The world we’re in right now, it’s really hard for y’all to discern what’s real and what’s true.” He acknowledged that while some memes mocking him were funny, he wanted to set the record straight and shut down any rumors regarding his connection to the music mogul.
Smith, best known for his role in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, directly addressed the issue, stating: “I haven’t addressed any of this publicly, but I just want to say this very clearly—I don’t have nothing to do with Puffy.” He was referring to Combs, who is also known by other names like Puff Daddy or P. Diddy. Smith added, “So y’all can stop all the memes. Stop all of that.”
The actor went on to express his frustration: “I ain’t been nowhere near no damn freak off. I do enough of my own… Don’t be putting me in other people’s stuff. I ain’t been nowhere near that man. I ain’t did none of that stupid s**t. So whenever y’all hear somebody say that, it’s a damn lie. I don’t even like baby oil.”
The term “freak offs” is in reference to shocking details revealed in a federal indictment against Combs following his September 16th arrest. The indictment, obtained by E! News, described “freak offs” as elaborate sex performances in which female victims were allegedly coerced into performing extended sex acts with male sex workers, under threats of force or coercion.
According to the indictment, Combs was also accused of directing, recording, and sometimes participating in these performances. Authorities allegedly seized over 1,000 bottles of baby oil from his homes as part of their investigation. Additionally, the document claims Combs arranged to transport sex workers across state lines and internationally for these acts.
The 54-year-old music mogul has pleaded not guilty to all charges and continues to maintain his innocence.
Smith’s response marks the first time he has addressed the rumors publicly. By speaking out, he aims to clear his name and distance himself from the serious allegations facing Combs, emphasizing that he has no involvement in any illegal activities.
