Taylor Swift had made a comment about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in a 2011 episode of The Rachael Ray Show. The short clip has resurfaced amid recent controversies surrounding Diddy. While her remark was lighthearted, the implications have shifted dramatically in light of the rapper’s legal troubles.
Now, many fans are curious to know what Taylor Swift said about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in 2011. Here are the details.
Taylor Swift’s comment about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs explained
In a surprising turn of events, Taylor Swift’s old comment from a 2011 appearance on The Rachael Ray Show about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs as a dream prom date has resurfaced amidst serious allegations against the rapper. The clip shows the “Blank Space” singer taking part in the celebrity quiz game, where she was asked about her ideal prom companion.
When posed with the question, she replied, “It would be a group, and it would be a really fun group.” Rachael Ray humorously joked, “Boy, you’re going on a freaky prom date,” as Swift held up pictures of several music stars. This included Combs, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Timberlake, Sheryl Crow, and Katy Perry. (via Page Six)
When Ray asked about her selection, Swift replied, “Because … all these different reasons.” She described Katy Perry as “crazy fun” and emphasized that Diddy had always treated her well, stating, “He would be fun to be in the prom group.”
Ray confirmed, “He’s a gentleman, isn’t he? He’s a lovely gentleman.” This exchange gained renewed attention after it was shared in a now-deleted TikTok video, especially in light of Combs’ recent legal troubles.
On September 16, 2023, authorities arrested Combs on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution. Prosecutors accuse him of hosting “freak-offs,” events where he allegedly coerced women into engaging in lengthy sexual acts. Combs has pleaded not guilty to these charges and is awaiting trial.
