Ray J has made a drastic U-turn on his views about
Diddy after being confronted by the mogul’s sons.
In his latest interview to discuss the various criminal charges and civil lawsuits against Puffy, the singer and reality star defended the Bad Boy boss by questioning whether the allegations are true.
Appearing on NewsNation’s
Cuomo on Tuesday (November 19), Ray J said: “Is any of it real? Or how much of it is real? I think that’s where we are now because they just keep piling on. Now everybody is starting to feel weird about it and it’s starting to look like it’s one-sided against one man, and people aren’t liking it.”
The “One Wish” hitmaker specifically cast doubt on Diddy’s alleged “freak offs,” which prosecutors have described as “elaborate sex performances” where the record executive would force women to sleep with male prostitutes for his pleasure.
“I think that there might have been times where people have partied with a certain team of people and there might have been a ‘freak off,’ right? But I can guarantee you, most of the celebrities that went to Diddy’s parties never even heard of a ‘freak off.’
So, the ‘freak offs’ in the beginning sounded really interesting and entertaining, but in this space now, when you look back, where were the ‘freak offs?’
“Everybody that’s super legitimate, that’s an A-List celebrity, from my knowledge — I just know that I have never seen a ‘freak off’ — what does that really mean?
“Is that really real? Are we creating a new narrative for something that’s not there? Was there really dope in the baby oil? What are we doing?”
Ray J also addressed his
recent clash with Diddy’s sons, Justin, Christian and Quincy Combs, revealing that they have “worked out their differences.”
The singer confirmed in a chat with
Nicki Minaj that the Combs trio confronting him at a Halloween party in Los Angeles in October over comments he had made about their father.
“No, we didn’t have a fight. We had a big argument right outside the club,” he explained. “This time, I think I got loud and got aggressive. But it was the third time this happened so I felt like I needed to stand up for myself.
“Even though I was talking shit and we were having a lot of crazy words, I was walking that way to avoid the issue. So that’s what happened and it’s unfortunate.”

“There’s no room for that in this world that we’ve been working hard to get to […] That’s fucking unacceptable. I’ve never ever seen nothing like that in my life.”
“The homie need a public whipping,” he added. “It’s the only way it’s gonna be right […] 100 lashes […] 1,000 lashes. That would help.”
