Here's why Wendy Williams was 'scared' to date Diddy after he broke up with Cassie Ventura
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: After Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ bombshell arrest a week earlier, the internet has started digging into past interviews that delved deep into the music producer’s past deeds.
One such footage that has resurfaced is from a 2015 episode of ‘The Wendy Williams Show’, where the host suggested that she feared for the safety of Cassie Ventura, who had just split from the Bad Boy Records founder.
Diddy, who found himself in hot waters last year with Ventura after the 38-year-old songstress accused him of abuse, was arrested last Monday on charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
Wendy Williams admitted she’d be scared to date Diddy
In the resurfaced clip, Wendy Williams admitted in her eponymous talk show that she would have been afraid to date Diddy, fearing for her safety. The interview came years before Diddy was embroiled in the controversy regarding the abuse of his ex Cassie Ventura, per OK! Magazine.
On the episode, the 60-year-old television queen discussed the news that Ventura felt happy to be in Cape Town, South Africa, as it put a distance between her and the ‘Coming Home’ rapper after their split.
Discussing the situation, Williams said, "You know, my thing about when you date a mogul, is, that it’s really difficult to avoid them, because if you use your head, you never know when they’re going to pop up on the scene.”
The talk show host continued, "He’s a mogul! Like, he can hire a plane right now, zoom it to South Africa, land on the roof of the hotel where she’s staying, pay people off at the front desk, ‘Give me the key and let me up in her room'.”
"To know somebody could actually swoop down on me in the middle of nothing would scare the bejesus out of me! It would, it would,” continued the star.
Williams, who has recently been diagnosed with dementia, also claimed in the clip that the rapper had a "playboy lifestyle" that left "women hypnotized."
The resurfaced clip appeared just months after CNN unearthed a hotel's surveillance video footage where Diddy could be seen kicking and thrashing Cassie in the lobby.
Sean 'Diddy' Combs once hinted at locking women in his parties
While Diddy has been known to organize controversial parties, another old clip resurfaced where the rapper opened up about the "ingredients" for hosting successful parties.
During a 2002 interview with Conan O'Brien, Diddy revealed the requirements for his "killer parties," and said, "This is what you need to do. Women. Beautiful women, of course. Beautiful men for the ladies, of course," as per Us Weekly.
He continued, "You need some water. I don’t know if guys have noticed this but a lot of ladies drink water at parties, so if you don’t have what they need, they’re going to leave." He added, "Gotta keep them there. Need locks on the doors."
