Sexual orgy at the White Party.
According to sources like Radar Online, after Combs was arrested for charges including human trafficking, sexual assault, extortion, kidnapping, and other serious crimes, celebrities who had attended his parties are reportedly fearful of being called as witnesses in court.
Combs was known for inviting celebrities to his lavish mansions in the Hamptons, New York, and in Beverly Hills, where he hosted the legendary “White Parties.”
These wild parties were notorious for their diverse activities, including drug use, scantily clad women, and continuous consumption of large bottles of champagne, all contributing to the atmosphere of an orgy party.
“Numerous Hollywood celebrities have been photographed partying with Combs into the night. Even among the most talked-about names now, we have his ex-girlfriend, singer-actress Jennifer Lopez, actress Sarah Jessica Parker, known for ‘Sex and the City’, pop diva Beyoncé, her husband rapper Jay-Z, actor Ashton Kutcher, Justin Bieber, and more—music industry figures and celebrities from the entertainment world. And it’s not just entertainers; even business mogul Martha Stewart’s name has come up,” reported a women’s magazine journalist.
Leonardo DiCaprio is also one of the celebrities reported to have attended Combs’ “White Party.” A photo of him laughing and smoking at a party held at Combs’ East Hampton home in 1998 was published in the British newspaper Daily Mail.
A representative of Leonardo DiCaprio stated:
“DiCaprio has no connection to the Combs case. He attended a few of Combs’ parties in the early 2000s, but he was just one of many attendees.”
In response to media inquiries, DiCaprio’s representative strongly denied any involvement in the case, stating:
“It’s ridiculous to assume he’s involved in this case based on a few photos from over 20 years ago.”
They stated.
The connection with Combs became the beginning of the downfall.
A Hollywood insider familiar with the parties hosted by Combs told *Radar Online*:
“The ‘White Party’ was a great opportunity for stars and high society figures to experience Combs’ luxurious world. The celebrities who attended were treated like royalty, and they loved attending those parties.”
The insider pointed out, however, that with the revelation of Combs’ case, the stars who participated are now fearful:
“There are dozens of people in Hollywood who are afraid of being called as witnesses. They are terrified that if their connection to Combs becomes public, it could bring about their downfall.” (Same insider)
The insider stated.
It was reported that federal investigators seized videos during a raid on Combs’ mansion. The existence of a bed video involving a famous celebrity and Combs has been speculated, and there have been reports of a sex tape involving Combs and three celebrities.
Combs, who rose to prominence as a rapper in the 1990s, had a significant influence on the U.S. music industry, producing songs for artists like Mariah Carey. Employees of the company Combs founded are also implicated in the crimes, and prosecutors have stated:
“They used his business empire for the sexual exploitation of women.”
Prosecutors have pointed out that Combs used his business empire for the sexual exploitation of women, and he faces the possibility of a life sentence.
However, Combs’ lawyer has stated:
“Mr. Combs categorically denies any claims of sexual abuse involving anyone, including minors, calling them false and defamatory.”
He denies the allegations.
Combs’ sexual assault case has evolved into a large-scale scandal, surpassing even the sexual abuse incidents involving Harvey Weinstein, the former Hollywood producer sentenced for multiple assaults on actresses. There is speculation about the possibility of Hollywood stars being called as witnesses, and all eyes in the U.S. are on the unprecedented mass sexual assault trial, which is drawing nationwide attention.
