Friday, October 25, 2024 - New details have emerged
concerning rumours about American rapper, Sean 'Diddy' Combs being
'responsible' for singer Jamie Foxx’s hospitalization in 2023.
The actor, 56, has been filming his
upcoming Netflix special, 'What Had Happened Was', and three
eyewitnesses who attended the tapings told Page Six he discussed claims
that Diddy, 54, caused his medical emergency.
Two of them claim that Foxx said Diddy was responsible for
what happened to him, and that he 'is the one who called the FBI on
[Combs]', who's currently in prison awaiting trial on sex trafficking
charges.
A source close to Diddy insisted that 'there is no truth to
Sean Combs putting Jamie Foxx in the hospital.'
It's unclear if the comments were intended as a joke or how
others in the audience interpreted them.
Big Homie .CC, a celebrity security guard, claimed in an
interview with Cam Capone News last week that Foxx was 'poisoned' by
Diddy.
'I know [Combs] poisoned Jamie Foxx, and Jamie Foxx reported
him to the FBI because of it… Jamie Foxx reported this man to the FBI because
of this,' he claimed.
Big Homie .CC told Page Six his claims are based on hearing
Foxx describe the story at two of his comedy show tapings, which the security
guard said he attended with a client.
Videographer Choke No Joke revealed he attended two of
Foxx's three shows in Atlanta earlier this month. The shows took place on
Oct. 4, 5 and 6 at the Alliance Theatre.
'Jamie has a special coming out on Netflix called "What
Had Happened Was," and I went to the taping of it. It was three days
taping. I went to the first show; I went to the last show,' he said in an
interview on Comedy Hype.
Choke claimed Foxx said during the tapings that 'Diddy was
responsible for what happened to him, and [Foxx] is the one who called the FBI
on [Combs].'
It's not clear if the alleged comments will be included in
the final cut of the special.
When asked if the comments were made as a 'joke,' Choke
said, 'I don't think he was joking.'
'Y'all can determine was he joking or not when you see the
show, 'cause to me — I'm a new comedian, right? … I know when somebody's
setting up a punchline, and I know when you're serious.'
'After [Foxx] said, "Diddy did something to me,"
he said, "And I'm the one who called the feds on him,"' Choke
restated, adding that Foxx might have done so because he was 'scared.'
'He disappeared, right? He out now, soon as Puff went to
jail, right? We see him at the game with [Dallas Cowboys owner] Jerry Jones,
right?… We haven’t seen him. As soon as Puff went to jail, [Foxx] was at the
goddamn Dallas football game, right? And now he just went and shot his special.
And who’s the special strongly based around? Diddy,' he further claimed.
Choke claimed Foxx and Diddy appeared to be 'bros' until
something allegedly caused a rift between them.
In a statement to Page Six, Choke expressed his shock that
Foxx had publicly made the claims, adding he and other industry insiders had
previously heard the rumors.
However, Dennis L.A. White, a third attendee, told Page Six
he went to the second and third tapings of the show, and his recollections were
slightly different.
White shared he heard Foxx say something more in line of,
'People keep asking me if Diddy was responsible. He was not responsible. If he
was, I would've been dead.'
He also added he did not remember Foxx talking about the FBI
or law enforcement, though he did say the actor spent a good portion of the
sets discussing Combs, and even making jokes about 'baby oil.'
Following his tapings, Foxx shared two photos from the
stage, including one of him wiping away tears, as well as a heartfelt message
on Instagram.
'God is good…. As I post these pictures, my heart and my
soul is filled with nothing but pure joy…on October 3 fourth and fifth I had an
opportunity to tell my side of the story and there was no better place than
Atlanta Georgia.'
'I have to thank you Atlanta you showed up and you showed
out, I haven’t been on stage in 18 years but I needed the stage and I needed an
audience that was made up of nothing but pure love and that’s what you were.'
'When people ask me is this a stand up comedy show I say no it’s an artistic explanation. Of some thing that went terribly wrong, but thanks to the great people in Atlanta especially piedmont hospital you enabled me to come back and be on stage and do what I love to do the most… #nobaddays as my guy James would say #secondchance.'
