Stephen Baldwin and Oprah Winfrey gushed over Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs in an unearthed video which saw them invite Hollywood stars to one of the rapper’s famous parties
Stephen Baldwin and Oprah Winfrey praised Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs as they invited Hollywood A-listers to one of the rapper’s infamous parties in a resurfaced video.
Combs was arrested last month and held without bail on on federal charges including sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution. Diddy has denied all charges against him, with his lawyer stating that the mogul is “an innocent man with nothing to hide.”
The unearthed video, which was released in 1998, shows Hailey Bieber’s dad Stephen Baldwin, Oprah Winfrey and other celebrities heaping praise on Diddy and his extravagant parties. The video was shared on social media with the caption: “sooo Hailey Bieber’s dad partied with diddy.”

It also saw former President Trump refer to Diddy as “legendary”. The celebrities featured in the clip revealed the date and time of the party, but said the venue was to be revealed at a later date.
The party took place at the Cipriani Wall Street and is believed to have cost $600,000 to host. More than 1,500 people were on the invite list.
The resurfaced video comes after Combs was arrested last month and charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has vehemently denied the charges.
Amid the arrest, Diddy is also facing the possibility of lawsuits from 120 people who are planning to sue him, according to attorney Tony Buzbee. The individuals are planning to sue Diddy for alleged exploitation and sexual abuse.

In a press conference held in Houston, Texas, on Tuesday, Buzbee said 25 of those individuals were minors at the time of the alleged offenses. The attorney said he plans to file the lawsuits over the next 30 days, with the alleged victims aged between nine and 38 when the alleged abuse took place.
Diddy’s lawyer Erica Wolff denied the allegations. In a statement, she said the rapper “cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus.”
Wolff continued: “That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors. He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court if and when claims are filed and served, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.”
