He’s not that kind of bad boy. Will Smith is setting the record straight on online rumors that he participated in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ nefarious “Freak-Off” parties, in which several sex crimes allegedly occurred. “I been seein’ y’all memes and stuff.
I see the memes. Some of that stuff is funny, some of it’s funny,” the “Bad Boy for Life” star, 56, began while onstage at The Observatory North Park in San Diego, Calif., Thursday, according to a video obtained by TMZ .
He then said, “I just wanna say this very clearly: I don’t have s–t to do with Puffy, so you all can stop all them memes. Y’all can stop all of that bulls–t. I ain’t been nowhere near no damn ‘Freak Off.
'” Smith joked that he does “enough” of his “own s–t” that he doesn’t need to be in “other people’s s–t.” “I ain’t been nowhere near that man, ain’t did none of that stupid s–t,” the “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” alum further insisted before quipping, “I don’t even like baby oil,” referring to thousands of bottles of lube that federal investigators found when they raided Combs’ houses amid their sex trafficking probe. The “Men In Black” star has been seen acting very friendly with Combs in the past.
Smith invited the “Bad Boy for Life” rapper and his son to the premiere of his 2008 action flick, “Hancock.” The entertainers were also spotted partying together at a fête in Miami back in 2004, at which Combs was seen eating chocolate-covered strawberries off of a naked woman. At the time, the Bad Boy Records founder was known for hosting lavish and wild parties for Hollywood’s hottest stars, but many insisted that they left before any suspicious activities occurred.
Decades later, Combs, 55, is now facing up to life in prison if convicted of the crimes of which he is being accused of doing. The feds have charged the “I Need a Girl” rapper with sex trafficking , racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution, and he is awaiting his trial behind bars in Brooklyn, NY. Attorney Tony Buzbee, who is representing at least 120 of Combs’ alleged victims in separate civil suits, has alleged that he has knowledge of other stars — besides Diddy — who partook in the sex crimes.
“The day will come when we will name names other than Sean Combs, and there’s a lot of names. It’s a long list already, but because of the nature of this case, we are going to make damn sure — damn sure — that we’re right before we do that,” he said in a press conference in October. “The names will shock you.
” Buzbee — who has been accused of encouraging victims to lie for his own agenda — named one of the major celebs earlier this week, claiming Jay-Z raped a 13-year-old girl right after Combs in 2000. The hip-hop mogul, 55, has strongly denied the allegations and filed to dismiss the lawsuit . In the meantime, several other stars who were previously seen partying with Combs, including Ashton Kutcher , Kevin Hart and the disgraced music mogul’s ex Jennifer Lopez are staying mum on the scandal.
Combs, who is fighting numerous civil lawsuits , is set to stand trial for his federal case on May 5. He has denied any wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty . If you or someone you know is affected by any of the issues raised in this story, call the Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-330-0226 .
