Jimmy Kimmel’s Awkward Question Leaves Diddy Visibly Upset During Late-Night TV Appearance
It was a mix of camaraderie and discomfort when Sean “Diddy” Combs graced the stage of Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote his latest album, “The Love Album.”
After an initial conversation about his new project, Kimmel took an unexpected turn, raising a decades-old rumor involving Diddy’s ex-girlfriend, Jennifer Lopez. Diddy and J.Lo’s high-profile relationship, which began in 1999 and ended in 2001, had been heavily covered by tabloids.
The rumor in question suggested that J.Lo had been propositioned for a threesome by the power couple at the time, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith. Kimmel, with a casual interruption, delved into the topic, asking Diddy, “I saw a guy on the internet the other day. He said he used to be your security guard, who said that when you were dating J.Lo, Will Smith and Jada tried to pick her up for a threesome, and you were gonna beat up Will Smith. Is that true?”
Diddy’s response was a prolonged pause, followed by, “Yo, this show has gotten crazier since the last time I was here. No.”
Kimmel, trying to keep things lighthearted, responded, “It’s all about love though. That’s not true?”
This only added to the awkwardness, evident on Diddy’s face. He asked, “You really heard that?”
“Yeah, yeah, I watched it on the internet,” Kimmel replied nonchalantly. “You’re telling me I can’t believe everything I read?”
With a shrug, Diddy said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. Jimmy, I thought we were friends. Where did this interview just go?”
Returning to the subject of music, Diddy discussed “The Love Album,” which features artists like Justin Bieber and The Weeknd. He expressed his dedication to weaving his personal experiences into his songs, emphasizing vulnerability in his love life.
Love isn’t just the theme of his album but also the essence of Diddy’s identity. He officially changed his middle name to “Love,” becoming Sean Love Combs. He proudly declared, “I’m serious about love, y’all. I’m all in on love.” He even shared that his daughter’s name is Love Sean Combs, born to him and Dana Tran last year.
“The Love Album” is now available for streaming on various platforms.
