Over the years, Hollywood has been exposed for a plethora of dark, illegal reasons. One of the most recent surfacings is the arrest of Sean Combs, famously known as P. Diddy. P. Diddy is a three time Grammy Award winner, a rapper, a record producer, and a record executive. He holds close ties with various celebrities and is credited with the discovery of many big musical artists including Usher. Combs has been denied bail and was arrested for sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The accounts for Combs’ arrest are lengthy including racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, transportation to engage in prostitution, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and assault. It has been reported that Combs would host parties in which women were required to engage in days long sexual performances then Combs would threaten, drug, or physically harm the victims to comply or keep quiet of the abuse. Cassie Ventura (Combs’ ex girlfriend of over a decade) filed a lawsuit accusing Combs of sexual abuse, rape, forceful drug use, and violent control. Various other celebrities and people with ties to Combs followed Ventura’s lead by filing their own lawsuits for similar reasons. A team of lawyers working on behalf of the alleged victims have announced that they will be filing over one hundred suits against Combs. It is alleged that Combs ran a sex trafficking ring for over a decade and across several states. It is assumed that Combs was using business employees to carry out criminal activities to keep his secret life out of the public eye.
Due to P Diddy’s association with various well known celebrities, these people are also now facing association and involvement allegations. These celebrities include Jay-Z, Justin Bieber, Usher, Jennifer Lopez, Ashton Kutcher, Kid Cudi, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim Kardashian, Mariah Carey, and many more. These people are known to have had close ties with Combs and attended at least one, if not more, of his exclusive parties. These celebrities are also keeping quiet about their opinions on the actions of P. Diddy, causing the public to speculate some sort of involvement. There has also been public speculation about rappers, specifically J. Cole and Eminem, accusing P. Diddy of sexual abuse and even murder in discrete lyrics.
Sean Combs, also P. Diddy, is being exposed for a decade-long, several state-wide sex trafficking ring and numerous cases of sexual and physical abuse. With his association to many well known names in the entertainment industry, this case has gotten a lot of coverage from the public eye. The public and fans of these celebrities are impatiently awaiting a judicial decision and more information about the insights to one of Hollywood’s best kept secrets. As suits continue to be filed against Sean Combs and more evidence is found against him, there will be more insight into the disturbing and disgusting secrets of Hollywood’s elite.
P. Diddy is a more recent celebrity who very publicly gets exposed for unforgivable actions. Although the cases and trials are still pending, the mere fact that over 100 suits are going to be filed against him is an alarming sign of huge foul play. As an elite P. Diddy had the terrifying power to get away with serious crime for over a decade. As a producer of art and now the face of a stack load of crimes, this article covers a topic where art and crime meet in an uncommon way. I feel even more reinforced with the idea that there comes a point where art should no longer be appreciated or consumed without the given context of the artist behind it. Personally I have observed the ongoing updates to the P. Diddy case and how much mass coverage it has been getting from all corners of the internet. This public case has yet to unfold fully and only time will tell if any celebrities will break their silence and shed more light on P. Diddy’s crimes and their involvement in his private parties.
