Katt Williams wasn’t kidding when he said, “This is the year of the truth,” especially with the dark side of Hollywood slowly being exposed.
What was once a destination for fame and dreams is being revealed as a place with its fair share of scandal and controversy.
The Kardashians, no strangers to the spotlight, have often found themselves at the centre of some shady dealings.
Over the years, they’ve faced numerous scandals, many of which have quietly faded. From accusations of cultural appropriation to rumours of manipulating media narratives, the Kardashians have managed to keep their empire intact despite the noise.
Now, with P Diddy, aka Sean Combs, preparing to stand trial after his recent indictment, old Hollywood connections are being scrutinised.
One that’s been catching attention is the link between the Kardashians and Diddy. The two have long been part of the same glittering Hollywood circle, attending star-studded events and lavish parties together.
In a 2014 episode of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians”, Khloe shared details of one of Diddy’s wild parties. Recalling the night for Kourtney, Khloe said Justin Bieber, who was 20 years old t the time, was also in attendance.
“I got on a plane at 5.30am. Well, this party … I think half the people there were butt naked,” she said. Khloe listed names like Diddy, Quincy and Justin Bieber, giving fans a glimpse into the A-list crowd.
Fast forward to 2016, another clip from “Kocktails with Khloe” resurfaced, showing Khloe and Kourtney chatting to Diddy about his infamous parties.
“When you think of a party, you think of Puff,” Khloe said, to which Diddy simply responded, "Yeah".
They reminisced about one of Diddy’s birthday parties, with Kourtney recalling a fun night spent with Kanye West, Corey Gamble and Tyga.
While some speculate that not all Diddy’s parties were as wild as others, it's clear that the Kardashians were regulars at the high-profile events. However, in recent months, the connection seems to have cooled.
Just before Diddy’s homes were searched in March 2024, Kim reportedly unfollowed him on Instagram, joining other Hollywood stars distancing themselves from Diddy.
Kris Jenner, the mastermind behind the Kardashian brand, has always been strategic about who the family associates with, and this recent shift signals that even long-standing connections can change when the stakes are high.
As more details come to light about Diddy’s legal troubles, it’s no surprise the Kardashians are keeping their distance.
