Tyrese Blames Trump Supporters for ‘Diddy Tape’ Rumors: ‘I Got No Regrets’

Singer and actor Tyrese Gibson recently went on Instagram Live and blamed Trump supporters for spreading rumors about his appearance in alleged “Diddy Tapes,” because the Fast & Furious star endorsed Kamala Harris for president.

“There is no such thing as a ‘Diddy tape,’ literally,” Tyrese began. “So allegedly whatever that brother is dealing with, whatever reasons he’s in jail, whatever the FBI, the law is dealing with allegedly pertaining to Diddy — I wanna tell y’all that I’ve been to some of the most legendary parties, I got no regrets.”

He added: “I think some of the best parties in L.A., and if you’re from L.A. and you’ve been to these parties, you would know that Diddy always had the most legendary parties that were always star-studded. The biggest and most legendary stars: white, Black, Latino, Asian, billionaires, fashion, you name it — Diddy hands down, from the Hamptons all the way to L.A. all the way to his legendary New Year’s parties that he would do in Miami — I got plenty of photos, proudly, like every other celebrity and star that went to his party.”

Finally, he finished by saying people should be more worried about the celebrities that aren’t talking about their experiences while attending one of the fallen mogul’s lavish parties. “Anybody who’s not on the Internet talking about a Diddy party — you should be more concerned about them, allegedly, about what they did or what they on tape doing,” he proclaimed. “There is no such thing allegedly as a Tyrese-Diddy tape. That is a bunch of Donald Trump n—as in my comments, trying to discourage me from speaking up and speaking out.”

In a now-deleted post, Tyrese talks about how much Diddy means to music and offers his friend emotional support, while also saying he’s going to pray for Diddy, his family and the alleged victims. “I don’t condone nor do I support abuse, bullying, sexual assault or anything that is currently being alleged,” he wrote in an Instagram caption. “But what I can’t do is turn the blinds on how much this meant to me and all of us, and what he has done for the community of music and culture.”

He added: “I’m praying for Diddy, his kids, his family, his mother and all of the alleged victims that’s in the middle of trying to simply have their voices to be heard. I love this brother. He’s been nothing but kind and generous towards me, and that’s the way I feel praying and praying for more of a better outcome of all of this is happening. God bless you Diddy. If you ever need to call me and just need a listening ear, I’m right here, bro.”

Diddy is currently in jail as he awaits a May 5, 2025, trial date.

Earlier this month, Tyrese scored his fourth No. 1 on Adult R&B Airplay with “Wildflower,” ending a nine-year absence from the chart’s top spot.
