As Diddy continues to fight mounting legal cases surrounding sex abuse and sex trafficking allegations, stories from years past have begun to pop up about his infamous parties.
The latest comes from US Weekly, which reports that Denzel Washington got into an argument with Diddy at a late-night party in 2003.
The reports, from someone friendly with Diddy in the early 2000s, claim the heated exchange was recognized when, “Denzel screamed, ‘You don’t respect anyone.’”
Soon after, Washington and his wife left the gathering.
“The incident ended in Washington storming out. “[Denzel and his wife, Pauletta] had been partying until dawn [with Diddy], and they had seen something and stormed out,” the source told Us Weekly.
More than 20 years later, Diddy faces the consequences of his alleged crimes. It began when he was the subject of a lawsuit from ex-girlfriend Cassie last November, accusing him of rape and domestic abuse, which was later proved when a leaked hotel security video showed him hitting her as she attempted to get into an elevator with her bags.
His legal issues escalated even more this past March when his Miami and Beverly Hills mansions were raided, where federal agents reportedly uncovered guns and 1,000 bottles of lube and baby oil.
Then, in September, Diddy would be arrested by the feds when entering the lobby of the New York hotel he’d relocated to.
After he was jailed and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution, he attempted to post a $50 million bail package several times. Still, it was denied because his resources meant he could be a flight risk, and the judge didn’t want him having any contact with alleged victims.
“I don’t believe that counsel has the ability to control you, given the very significant concerns I have, particularly because of substance abuse and what seem like anger issues,” U.S. Magistrate Judge Robyn Tarnofsky told Combs and his lawyer.
