An old video of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ “last words” is going viral on social media after his arrest and allegations of sexual abuse.
The resurfaced clip shows Combs sitting alongside Usher and La La Anthony in 2017 while playing a game on Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg’s VH1 show, “Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party.”
The three guests were each given a fill-in-the-blank card they had to answer, and Combs’ read, “When I die, I want my last words to be …”
“I did it,” he answered with no hesitation while throwing the card in the air and smiling.
Stewart, Snoop and Anthony all clapped and laughed, while Usher, who was famously Combs’ mentee, simply sat with his arms crossed and looked straight ahead.
The video is making the rounds on social media as Combs awaits trial for sex trafficking charges and continues to be hit with sexual assault lawsuits.
However, a spokesperson for Combs told Page Six in a statement that the video was taken “out of context.”
“It’s disappointing to see the media and social commentators twist moments into something they were not. By taking video clips and photos out of context and attempting to link them to a false narrative implying inappropriate behavior is completely ridiculous,” Combs’ spokesperson told us.
Fans have had mixed reactions about the old clip, with some believing the Bad Boy Records founder, now 54, was hinting at his alleged crimes and others arguing he was referring to his successful career.
“You sure did, and that’s why you’re in jail buddy,” one person commented.
“Well that didn’t age well,” another person pointed out.
“…and our last words to you would be ‘We know,’” someone else wrote.
“He obviously meant ‘I did it’, as it living the ‘American Dream’ due his wealth and status but I can see how this could be manipulated to indicate otherwise,” one person opined.
“Yall know what he means. He meant he did everything. He said he was gonna do he successful. He accomplished everything he wanted to do. Lol not he commited [sic] the those crimes,” another defender wrote.
“You guys are reaching too much now and over analyzation every little thing now it’s going out of hand,” someone else commented.
Combs’ legal woes began in November 2023 when his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura sued him for rape and abuse. They settled the suit the following day, and Combs denied any guilt — but a 2016 video of him physically assaulting Ventura at a hotel surfaced in May.
Shortly after, authorities began investigating Combs before arresting him in New York City on Sept. 16. He was charged with three counts: racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The record executive has pleaded not guilty to all three charges and remains behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, NY.
Since his arrest, Combs has been hit with several assault allegations from several victims, including a 13-year-old girl who claimed he and two other celebrities drugged and raped her at a 2000 VMAs afterparty.
Combs has denied any wrongdoing, and his attorneys described the claims as “false to outright absurd” in court documents filed last week.
