The mother of a now 16-year-old named M, who I met backstage, told me he’s an amazing young man. I thanked her and told him, “You’re a bright light, kid.”
Just when it seemed like the allegations against Diddy couldn’t get any darker, new details are coming out that have people stunned. Word is that federal investigators have uncovered information suggesting Diddy may have been interested in Wendy Williams’ son, Kevin Hunter Jr., as part of some twisted revenge for things Wendy exposed about him in the past. And Wendy, who’s never been one to hold back, finally spoke up, essentially saying, “I warned you all.”
Reflecting on this, Wendy said, “We come from a time in hip-hop when even hinting at these things was career suicide. There was a radio personality back then—me—who was practically blacklisted for calling things out. Now it’s all coming full circle. There were countless situations I was aware of back in the day that I didn’t speak on. But here we are.”
So, in case you missed it, Wendy finally broke her silence on the Diddy situation, telling The Daily Mail that she’s not surprised by the investigation. “It’s strange,” she said, “because so many people, even family, have been telling me, ‘Wendy, you called it.’ To be honest, it’s about time. Watching that footage of Cassie suffering was gut-wrenching. And now, I just keep wondering—how many more times? How many people? How many women? It’s horrifying.”
Wendy’s recent comments seemed to be throwing some serious shade at Diddy, alluding to the many accusations that have surfaced about him over the years. And now, a recent story has come out involving Tai Storus, John Legend’s manager, who shared in a New York Times article a disturbing experience from a party hosted by Diddy in St. Barts in the late ‘90s. Tai says she was locked in a bedroom and had to talk her way out of a situation that felt odd at the time, but she later realized was a red flag in a wider toxic culture in the music industry.
Adding to this, attorney Tony Busby has taken on 120 cases against Diddy, with allegations piling up from both men and women across multiple states. He claims these cases include accusations from 60 men and 60 women, with 25 of them involving minors at the time of the alleged incidents. Among these is a particularly shocking claim from a 9-year-old boy who says he was assaulted during an audition at Bad Boy Records. Busby has shared that in many cases, victims allege they were drugged with tranquilizers, and that these incidents often took place at Diddy’s infamous parties. Tony also mentioned his firm received over 3,280 calls related to the case, though he’s representing just 120 individuals, some of whom have even spoken to the FBI.
Diddy hasn’t stayed quiet amidst all these allegations. His lawyers recently requested a ban on public statements from potential witnesses in his federal trial after one witness held a press conference accusing Diddy of assaulting celebrities and minors. Before this, Diddy’s team had also requested a gag order on federal officials, pointing to a New York Post article where a federal law enforcement source was quoted, as proof the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was interfering with his right to a fair trial. Diddy’s legal team even alleged that DHS leaked an incriminating video of him to CNN, though DHS has denied the claim.
In light of these new allegations, people are starting to reexamine past incidents, like a tense moment when Diddy appeared on Wendy’s show and mentioned her son, Kevin Jr. Some viewers pointed out how Wendy seemed uneasy when Diddy brought up meeting Kevin, which has led to suspicions that Diddy may have been using intimidation tactics.
The speculation doesn’t stop there. Rumor has it that Diddy may have had a hand in some of the hardships Wendy’s faced recently—from her financial struggles to her declining health. Those close to the situation believe that even though Wendy and Diddy seemed to make amends publicly, he may have been quietly plotting revenge for all the times she’d exposed him over the years. In her 2004 book, The Wendy Williams Experience, Wendy herself admitted she had a “certain level of contempt” for Diddy, saying he once tried to ruin her career. And now, with all these allegations coming to light, it seems like Wendy’s long-standing suspicions about Diddy might not have been so far off.
In 2005, Wendy Williams shared a shocking story on her radio show, The Wendy Williams Experience, where she claimed that the girl group Total, who were signed to Diddy’s Bad Boy Records, almost attacked her. She later revisited the incident during a 2019 episode of her talk show, suggesting that Diddy was somehow involved. Wendy recalled the moment: “I’m wrapping up in my headphones, heading downstairs. My boyfriend at the time—good Kevin, before he became the bad Kevin—was supposed to pick me up. So, I’m in the elevator with my intern, Skeletor, and suddenly, I notice everyone is looking down at the sidewalk. I get downstairs and this girl group jumps out of a gypsy cab, ready to come after me. I’m thinking, ‘Why?’ I never said anything that wasn’t true—you were broke and living in the projects. That’s all I said. But what I’m really trying to get at is, Amanda, you shouldn’t have done that. Instead of reacting by going back on the radio to talk about it, I decided to focus on doing better so I could eventually sit in my purple chair and tell this whole story, maybe even in a Lifetime movie.”
Wendy also implied that Diddy had a hand in her firing from radio during a 2013 interview with Vlad TV. She mentioned that her dismissal was connected to her speculation about a particular hip-hop artist. In recent months, multiple revelations about Diddy have surfaced. This includes his arrest in Manhattan, which came after federal agents raided his homes in Los Angeles and Miami. Prosecutors reported that they’d already interviewed over 50 witnesses, with more expected to testify. Court documents from the grand jury detailed some alarming findings, including 1,000 bottles of baby oil and three AR-15 rifles discovered in Diddy’s homes.
The baby oil discovery is still puzzling. Prosecutors explained that the bottles were part of Diddy’s “freak offs”—extravagant, wild parties he allegedly hosted. These parties were said to involve drugs, special lighting, linens, and other supplies. The indictment also included accusations that Diddy used threats and manipulation to coerce women into attending these events, and that he used his wealth and influence to protect his reputation while building his empire, which prosecutors claim was part of a criminal operation. The charges against him include forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice.
The indictment went into further detail about how Diddy mistreated women, allegedly throwing objects at them and luring them into participating in these “freak offs” under false pretenses, using both physical and psychological pressure. These gatherings were reportedly planned out meticulously, with Diddy’s staff booking hotel rooms and stocking them with baby oil, lubricant, sheets, and lighting. The parties could go on for days, and it’s said that Diddy and others involved often needed IV fluids to recover afterward.
Wendy, having worked in the Hollywood scene for years, clearly knew exactly what she was talking about. She was also the one who famously commented on the power dynamic between Diddy and his former girlfriend, Cassie. Wendy had said there was a significant imbalance, with Diddy always holding the upper hand. “Dating a mogul like that, you can never really avoid them. They can show up at any time, anywhere. Think about it—he could hire a plane, land it on the roof of a hotel where she’s staying, bribe people for a key, and just walk straight into her room. I’d be paranoid if I knew someone could just swoop down on me like that. It would scare the heck out of me.”
Cassie’s lawsuit against Diddy paints a shocking picture of the abuse she went through during their relationship. She described how Diddy’s rage would often spiral out of control, with him subjecting her to brutal acts like punching and stomping her. There were multiple times she was hospitalized, and at one point, she even lost her memory because of his violence. Cassie opened up about the deep emotional toll it took on her, admitting that she had even considered taking her own life due to the trauma. On top of that, she claimed that Diddy forced her into having sexual encounters with other men, which he recorded. Toward the end of their relationship in 2018, she accused him of forcibly entering her home and assaulting her.
Cassie went on to explain how Diddy introduced her to a high-paced, reckless lifestyle just after they met when she was 19 and signed to his label, while he was nearing 40. Her account lines up with what Wendy Williams has said about Diddy, particularly in regard to the dangerous world he brought Cassie into.
Wendy has never shied away from speaking out about Diddy. She once had former Bad Boy rapper Mark Curry on her show to talk about his book Dancing with the Devil: How Puff Burned the Bad Boys of Hip Hop, where he referred to Diddy as the “devil,” explaining how his dark presence seemed to affect everyone around him. Wendy agreed wholeheartedly with Mark, saying she saw the same things.
Wendy also interviewed Karrine “Superhead” Steffans after she released her book, where Karrine exposed Diddy’s behavior. Karrine recounted how Diddy had taken her to one of his infamous parties, which involved questionable and disturbing activities, including wanting to involve a male participant. She later ran into him again with rapper Xzibit, and noticed the same type of atmosphere. Diddy, paranoid that Karrine might expose him, acted defensively, and Wendy made sure to ask all the tough questions during their interview.
Wendy also brought up the 1999 incident with Jennifer Lopez, saying she didn’t like how Diddy handled the situation and felt that something shady was going on. This incident was later mentioned in a lawsuit by a person named L. Rod, who claimed that Diddy boasted about getting away with crimes, including an incident at a nightclub in New York City involving Shine.
Considering how many times Wendy has exposed Diddy over the years, it’s not hard to imagine that Diddy might want to get back at her for it. Do you think, as some have suggested, he could have tried to target Kevin Jr. as part of some twisted revenge, or might he be behind some of the struggles Wendy has faced recently? Let me know what you think in the comments below.
