Denzel Washington allegedly confronted Sean “Diddy” Combs at a house party years ago, only to abruptly leave the gathering with his wife Pauletta.
Denzel Washington and Sean “Diddy” Combs allegedly had their own private issues aired publicly more than 20 years ago.
Washington, 69, reportedly stood up to the disgraced rapper, 54, at an all-night party in 2003, a source told US Weekly.
It’s unclear why the Oscar-winning actor was upset with Diddy, but he reportedly had enough and confronted the billionaire Bad Boy Entertainment founder.
“Denzel screamed, ‘You don’t respect anyone'”, the insider recalled.
Shortly after the incident, Denzel and his wife abruptly left the festivities.
“[Denzel and his wife, Pauletta] had been partying until dawn [with Diddy], and they had seen something and stormed out”, the source said. It’s unclear what the couple witnessed at the event.
Fox News Digital has reached out to representatives for both Washington and Combs.
The reported rift that night didn’t appear to affect their friendship, as Diddy and Denzel had been seen together through the years at various public events, including basketball games and President Barack Obama’s 2009 inauguration.
More than 100 accusers reportedly came forward alleging “rape, sexual assault and sexual exploitation” claims against Diddy, with the youngest accuser being 9 years old, Houston attorney Tony Buzbee said Tuesday during a press conference.
