Following Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs' recent arrest, a surge of old videos and clips related to him are resurfacing online. One such clip from 2011 features a young Taylor Swift mentioning Diddy as a dream prom date, which has now caught attention.
In the clip, filmed during an appearance on The Rachael Ray Show, a then-early-career Taylor listed her ideal prom dates, naming Diddy, Katy Perry, and Justin Timberlake. She spoke warmly about Diddy, saying, “Diddy has actually always been really nice to me.” When host Rachael Ray chimed in, “He’s a gentleman, isn’t he?” Taylor responded, “I’d really love to be in the group at prom.”
The clip’s resurfacing has led to mixed reactions online. While some criticize Taylor for her past admiration, others defend her, pointing out that she was only 19 or 20 at the time and that the admiration was likely innocent. “As a millennial, we looked up to these people. We didn’t know what was really going on,” shared one user. Another added, “She’s innocent; don’t drag her…she was a teenager.” Others speculated that Taylor’s knowledge of Diddy was limited to her brief interactions with him.
Meanwhile, Diddy, who is facing serious allegations involving sex trafficking, forced drug use, and a suspected link to Tupac Shakur’s murder, has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Following his arrest on charges of prostitution, trafficking, and alleged sexual misconduct, the rapper has encountered a wave of further allegations, including threats, forced drug use, and even an alleged link to Tupac Shakur’s murder.
Reports indicate that the Bad Boy Records founder is also accused of organizing events termed “freak-offs,” where women were allegedly coerced into extended acts. Combs has entered a not guilty plea and is currently held at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center awaiting trial. Recently, he saw a minor win as a judge admonished federal agents believed to have leaked sensitive details about the case, instructing them to cease sharing grand jury information and other confidential details to ensure a fair trial, per the NY Post.
