Diddy’s Lawyer Says The Rapper Had 1,000 Bottles Of Baby Oil In His Home Because He Shops At Costco

Everybody loves a good deal in this economy. Obviously one of the big stories over the past week or so has been the arrest of rapper Diddy (formerly known as Puff Daddy, and P. Diddy, and Puffy, and Sean Combs...already a little suspicious that this guy keeps changing his name) on some pretty disturbing charges. The rapper and producer has been under heavy fire lately, starting in November of last year when a lawsuit was filed against him by his former girlfriend accusing Diddy of rape, sex trafficking and physical abuse. Since then, numerous other lawsuits have been filed with similar allegations, and earlier this year federal agents raided Diddy’s homes in Los Angeles, New York and Miami in relation to an unspecified investigation. But on September 16, the rapper and founder of Bad Boy Records was finally arrested after being indicted by a grand jury on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. He has since pled not guilty, and the courts have rejected his requests for bail, meaning it looks like he's going to be behind bars at least until his trial. After his arrest, we got a disturbing look at what Diddy's accused of, including holding "freak offs" filled with prostitutes, sexual activity and...whatever else you do at a freak off. And we also got a look at what authorities found when they raided his home - including 1,000 bottles of lube and baby oil. Now, Diddy does have a two-year old daughter, but something tells me that baby oil isn't all for childcare... His lawyer has an explanation for the stash though: Diddy shops at Costco. During an interview with TMZ, the disgraced rapper's attorney Marc Agnifilo said that his client has a big house and simply buys in bulk: "I mean, he has a big house. He buys in bulk. I think they have Costcos in every place where he has a home. Have you sat in a parking lot of a Costco and seen what people walk out of there with?" Now, who am I to argue with somebody who's just looking for a good deal, but I've shopped at Costco quite a bit and I've never noticed the 1,000-pack of bottles of baby oil. And I'm also not a parent, but I'm just assuming here that a kid doesn't go through 1,000 bottles of baby oil in their lifetime. You'd just have a bunch of slippery kids running around all over the place at that point. Of course this guy's just doing his job, trying to explain away his client's (alleged) despicable behavior. But I'm not sure I'd want to have to walk into court with "he shops at Costco" as my only defense in this case. https://twitter.com/TMZ/status/1839004687946637400

Jelly Roll Turned Down An Invitation To Meet Diddy Last Year

Trust those instincts. During an appearance on CANCELLED with Tana Mongeau, country superstar Jelly Roll revealed that he was offered the opportunity to meet Combs while they were both appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live - but something told him to decline: "I did Kimmel the day Diddy did Kimmel. And this is the first time in my career, ever, where they said, 'Do you want to meet such-and-such?' And I said yeah and I started walking that way. And I was getting down the hallway - this is a true story - I said, 'Nah,' and went and got back in the car." SMART move. Jelly also said that at first he made a joke about wanting to meet him, but that it wasn't well-received: "I made a joke at first, I was like, 'Who don't want to meet the guy that got Tupac killed?' And nobody thought that was funny so I was like, 'Ooh, that's a bomb, maybe I shouldn't go and do this anyway.' So I was already skeptical because I thought I had a funny one." Now, I'm not going to get too much into East Coast/West Coast rap feuds of the '90s (although they've always fascinated me and I could talk for hours about them), but just let me say: Jelly's right, that joke's not funny...it's f*cking hilarious. He was, of course, referring to the longstanding conspiracy theory (if you can even call it a conspiracy theory anymore) that Diddy, who was the founder of Bad Boy Records which served as home to the Notorious B.I.G., was responsible for ordering a hit on rival West Coast rapper Tupac Shakur of Death Row Records. But I digress... Back to Jelly Roll: "We were walking and I was just like, I dunno. Very seldom does things rub me in a way where I was like, 'I don't even know if that's a picture I want to have.'" I think it's safe to say that Jelly made the right call on that one - even if he wasn't sure why at the time. https://youtu.be/cktywYSBMck?si=Efmz0aZHsAhP1R6E&t=2602
