It comes as Diddy is awaiting trial at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn for multiple offenses including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The infamous rapper was arrested back in September in Manhattan, New York, just a few months after federal authorities carried out a sex trafficking investigation and raided both his homes in Los Angeles and Miami.
While the 55-year-old, who is often referred to by his real name Sean Combs, has pleaded not guilty to the crimes, authorities are currently delving into reports from at least 120 people who have come forward with sexual assault allegations against the music mogul that span two decades, as per Sky News.

As the case continues to develop, we’re seeing more and more stars who were connected to the disgraced star through friendships or romantic connections be put on the spot to try and justify their previous relationships.
In a new video that is garnering attention online, Jennifer Lopez can be seen walking away from fans after she was questioned about her past with Diddy.
The 55-year-old had been attending the AFI FEST 2024 Unstoppable screening which included a Q&A in Los Angeles earlier in the evening before signing autographs on her way out.

However, when she was asked “JLo, do you have any comments about Diddy and the allegations?” she immediately stopped signing and turned to walk away quickly followed by her security.
Other fans stated “Don’t leave” but the comment seemed to be enough for the ‘I’m Into You’ singer.

JLo and Diddy dated between 1999 and 2001, though it wasn’t all sunshine and roses for the singer as she later described it as “tempestuous” and “emotionally exhausting.”
“We broke up many times before that, and got back together and broke up again, and nobody knew about it,” she said in an old interview. “It was very tempestuous. Towards the end it was emotionally exhausting. It was good that I was young.”
Diddy’s trial is set for May 2025.
