Tyrese Gibson isn’t here for the gossip. The Fast & Furious star recently took to social media to address rumors linking him to an alleged Diddy tape, as music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs remains behind bars facing serious charges related to sex trafficking and racketeering. With Diddy’s trial slated for May next year, whispers about supposed footage from his infamous parties are reportedly making rounds in Hollywood, adding fuel to the fire.
The buzz began in September when attorney Ariel Mitchell-Kidd claimed on NewsNation that she was approached with an offer to purchase an alleged tape that featured someone even “more high-profile” than Diddy himself. While no names were confirmed, the statement set social media ablaze with theories and wild speculation.
Tyrese has found himself in the middle of these unfounded accusations, prompting him to set the record straight. In a video clip, Tyrese cleared the air, saying, “There is no such thing as a Diddy tape, literally.”
Tyrese acknowledged attending Diddy’s star-studded gatherings but made it clear that there’s no incriminating footage of him. “So, allegedly, whatever that brother is dealing with… Whatever reasons he’s in jail, whatever the FBI and the law is dealing with, allegedly, pertaining to Diddy. I wanna tell y’all that I’ve been to some of the most legendary parties. I got no regrets, I think some of the best parties in LA.”
Tyrese didn’t stop there; he called out those fueling the false narratives. “Anybody who’s not on the Internet talking about a Diddy party, you should be more concerned about them, allegedly… About what they did or what they on tape doing,” he added. “There is no such thing allegedly as a Tyrese Diddy tape. That is a bunch of Donald Trump n****s in my comments trying to discourage me from speaking up and speaking out.”
With Diddy’s legal issues grabbing headlines and tapes rumored to be circulating, Tyrese’s candid response puts an end to at least one part of the swirling saga.
