According to a report by The Economic Times dated November 9, 2024, a former party planner spoke to The New York Post about Diddy's alleged freak-off parties on the condition that the planner's identity remains anonymous. Calling the reported parties "decadently extravagant."
The party planner shared that one of the parties involved the installation of hundreds of mirrors on the walls and ceiling of a room at Diddy's mansion stating that everywhere one looked, they could see themselves reflected repeatedly. The planner shared that Puffy's alleged freak-off parties were designed to be mainstream social events that would later turn into orgies, costing $500,000 each.
Commenting on Puffy's parties, the party planner said:
“It was definitely a vibe he wanted to put out there, that everywhere you looked there would be s*x happening. It was wall-to-wall debauchery,”
The planner mentioned that the $500,000 parties comprised expensive alcohol, dancers, acrobats, high-end food, and sometimes live animals as well.
In addition to denying his involvement in Diddy's alleged freak-off parties, Will Smith clarified that he hasn't been anywhere near the rapper despite being photographed with Puffy at multiple events over the years.
Additionally, Will Smith said that if anyone alleges that he has been involved with Puffy, "it's a damn lie". The actor also made fun of Puffy and said that he doesn't even like baby oil, referring to the feds allegedly finding hundreds of bottles of baby oil at the rapper's residences during a raid in March 2024.
