From Usher to Cuba Gooding Jr: Post on alleged Diddy freak off party list of names goes massively viral online 

Amid the chaos surrounding Sean "Diddy" Combs and the allegations against him, an alleged list had been reportedly shared by a Facebook user recently, whose handle is named Rap Legends. It is said to have contained the names of several stars from the music industry, along with other celebrities too who reportedly attended Combs' "freak off parties."

The alleged list included- Steve Stoute, EVE, Aaron Hall, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Drake, Stevie J, Dr. Dre, The Game, Lil Rod, Jade Ramey, Chris Brown, Yung Miami, Daphne Joy, Lebron James, Meek Meel, Bishop T.D. Jakes, Rick Ross, Justin Bieber, Usher, Cuba Gooding Jr., and Russell Simmons. The post went viral soon and has now garnered about 13,000 comments & 12,000 likes. However, the authenticity of the list is yet to be confirmed.

Trigger warning: The article contains references to s*x abuse. Readers' discretion is advised.

The phrase "freak off party" has been used quite a lot of times in the indictment against Combs, that eventually led to his arrest by the federal agents. The indictment had further defined the "freak offs" as:

"gatherings where Diddy allegedly misused his power to lure victims into s*x acts with male commercial s*x workers."

A drug dealer, who once went to Diddy's former Hamptons mansion, during a "freak off party" to reportedly close a cocaine deal, said:

"You’d see two people you would not think would be hooking up, rappers, that was what shocked me."

Several celebrities had previously mentioned attending Diddy's parties

While there's no confirmation of the authenticity of the list that has been going viral on social media, it goes without saying that over the years, many celebrities have mentioned attending his parties.

In 2016, Usher had an interview scheduled on The Howard Stern Show, where he spoke about his experience of living with Combs back in the 90s. Usher had reportedly stayed with the music mogul for about a year.

At that time, the singer, who was only 14 or 15 years old, later claimed that there were no orgies happening at Combs' residence. He, however, revealed that he had seen some "wild" things going on in the house. In the interview, Usher said:

"I got a chance to see some things. I went there to see the lifestyle, and I saw it. I don't know if I could indulge and understand what I was even looking at. I had curiosity of my own. I just didn't understand it. It was pretty wild. It was crazy."

In an article published in March 2024, by Rolling Stone, it was revealed that at that time Combs was working with several artists, but Usher was the only young one there.

A list of names became public when Lil Rod filed a suit against Diddy earlier this year. The list included names of celebrities who were seemingly close to the mogul and were allegedly part of his "inner circle." This included Cuba Gooding Jr., Ashton Kutcher, and Usher.

Another well-known personality had, meanwhile, come out in support of Diddy, as reported by Vibe in May 2024. American entrepreneur and writer Russell Simmons revealed that he felt sad about the mogul's condition. He added:

"Watching our brothers fall is hurtful. And everybody [getting] together and [laughing] at our brothers fall or supporting the tearing down of our brothers..."

His bail has been denied, and as of now, he's supposed to be in jail until the trial begins.
