There is an interview from 1999 that has come back to haunt Sean ‘Diddy‘ Combs.
The rapper told Entertainment Tonight that he felt one day he would be arrested for his ‘crazy parties.’
His wild fetes – which are not to be confused with his lurid Freak Offs – were attended by stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lopez, Sarah Jessica Parker as well as Kim and Khloe Kardashian.
‘You’re gonna hear about my parties,’ said the 54-year-old rap mogul as he referred to his star-studded bashes.
‘They’re gonna be shutting them down. They’re gonna probably be arresting me, doing all types of crazy things just ’cause we wanna have a good time,’ Combs added.

Diddy said that he was judged by adding a ‘different element’ to his bashes.
He argued, ‘Whenever you bring up a different element into people’s environment, things that broaden people’s horizons, people get intimidated. It’s a lot of people out there that feel intimidated by it.’
Diddy has been charged with sex trafficking and related crimes and will likely spend about 10 years behind bars.
The ex of JLo added that he had trouble getting support for his famous fetes.
‘They won’t even give me a permit for the parties no more,’ said Diddy. ‘They don’t want me to throw the parties no more, but we ain’t gonna stop. We gonna keep on having fun bringing people together from all walks of life.’
Combs felt he was helping join races together.
The first White Party was held on September 7, 1998. Paris Hilton described it as ‘iconic’.
Photos of the gatherings are like a time capsule of late Nineties, early Noughties celebrity. Howard Stern, Kelly Osbourne, Aretha Franklin, Martha Stewart, Jay-Z and Beyonce, ‘it’ couple Tommy Lee and Pamela Anderson.
Combs, 54, was arrested last week at a New York City hotel and charged with racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution.
On Wednesday Combs has been denied bail for a second time.

The star is set to remain in a Brooklyn jail until he stands trial in his sex trafficking case, after a second judge refused to accept a $50million bail package offered by his lawyers.
US district judge Andrew L Carter Jr dismissed Combs’ request to be released to home detention with GPS monitoring, with the judge pointing out that the hip-hop mogul could potentially tamper with witnesses.
Combs pleaded not guilty to allegations of sex trafficking on September 19.
The rapper appeared at a court in Manhattan after being charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution.
Asked during a court hearing how he pleaded to the charges, Combs replied: ‘Not guilty.’
The rapper’s lawyers subsequently requested that Combs be freed on bond, pending trial, after paying a sum of $50million.
However, following a a lengthy debate between legal teams on whether Combs represents a flight risk, Magistrate Judge Robyn Tarnofsky announced that the rap star will remain in detention until his sex trafficking trial begins.

Marc Agnifilo – Combs’ lawyer – subsequently said that the music star is determined to ‘establish his innocence’.
Agnifilo told reporters outside the court: ‘He’s going to fight this. He’s innocent. He came to New York to establish his innocence.
‘We believe in him wholeheartedly. He didn’t do these things. There’s no coercion and no crime.’
Combs is ‘not afraid of the charges’ he’s currently facing, according to his lawyer.
Agnifilo added: ‘He’s been looking forward to this day, and he’s been looking forward to clearing his name.’
It was also learned last week that the Quiet On Set documentary markers are working on a series about Combs.

True crime network Investigation Discovery was behind this year’s documentary in which a slew of former Nickelodeon child actors alleged instances of abuse and a toxic working environment at the hands of producer Dan Schneider.
Now, they have announced a multipart docuseries for 2025 which will tell ‘the rise and influence of Combs and the allegations of violent behavior and illegal activity that have trailed the music mogul’.
In a press release, they added: ‘As accounts of sexual assault, abusive behaviors, and other disturbing claims surface, the doc traces the story of this self-proclaimed Bad Boy, unraveling allegations of a pattern of depravity.’
