Comedian and actor Kevin Hart has avoided answering questions over his friendship with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, who is facing allegations of sex trafficking and sexual misconduct
Kevin Hart sidestepped inquiries about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs amidst swirling sex trafficking accusations hanging over the music icon.
While being questioned by paparazzi about the parties he threw for Combs, Hart dismissed them at a West Hollywood eatery remarking, “You asking the wrong person the wrong question, man. It’s not a good question.” Hart reiterated his stance, asserting “Wrong person, wrong question,” as questions included concerns about Combs’ well-being if incarcerated. Combs faced arrest on Monday, September 16, amid allegations of sex trafficking.
Back in 2010, Kevin Hart was the host for a lavish affair for Combs at a New York hotel that was noted for its barely-dressed attendees.
Tony Buzbee, the attorney who stands with more than 120 people accusing Combs, has intimated bigger revelations are on the horizon.

At a news briefing, Buzbee declared: “We will expose the enablers who enabled this conduct behind closed doors,”.
He cautioned: “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.”
Allegations by Buzbee also pointed to Combs drugging victims and attacking a woman who was pregnant during a gathering in Miami. Erica Wolff, legal representative for Combs, adamantly refuted the accusations, stating: “Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors.”
Moreover, Wolff conveyed: “He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court.”
Last month saw Combs detained on myriad charges, inclusive of sex trafficking and racketeering. Currently held without bond in Brooklyn, Combs maintains a plea of not guilty. The indictment zeroes in on the gatherings Combs famously dubs “freak-offs.” While Hart and fellow stars who frequented past shindigs hosted by Combs remain free from accusation, Buzbee has made it clear: “We will pursue this matter no matter who the evidence implicates.”
This comes as a 1999 interview with Entertainment Tonight recently resurfaced amid the new claims, with Combs casually joking that he’d probably be arrested at some point for his “crazy” actions at his infamous parties. He said: “They won’t even give me a permit for the parties. And they don’t want me to throw the parties no more. But we ain’t going to stop. We gonna keep on having fun. Bringing people together from all walks of life. You’re going to hear about my parties. They gonna be shutting them down. They gonna probably be arresting me doing all types of crazy things just because we want to have a good time.”
