*In a blistering comedy performance at the Comedy Store, Jamie Foxx didn’t hold back, targeting Sean “Diddy” Combs with sharp-witted jabs amid the music mogul’s high-profile federal trial in New York City.
Foxx, 56, took the stage alongside his daughter Corinne, labeling Diddy a “nasty motherf***er” in a video captured by Urban Hollywood 411. The Oscar winner’s remarks cut deep, addressing Diddy’s legal troubles involving charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation for prostitution, to which he has pleaded not guilty.
Foxx reflected on Diddy’s tarnished reputation, noting the particular sting felt by the Black community. “He used to be our hero,” Foxx quipped, contrasting this with a jest that “white folks might still think it’s all cool.”
He addressed the salacious details of Diddy’s trial, poking fun at the reported stockpiles of baby oil and referencing a disturbing allegation that Diddy once coerced an escort to urinate in Cassie’s mouth. Foxx likened Diddy to a scene from the 1999 film “Life,” where Martin Lawrence’s character hurls the same “nasty motherf***er” insult at Eddie Murphy.
Last year, Foxx used his platform to dispel swirling internet rumors tying Combs to his near-fatal health scare in April 2023. In his Netflix special “What Had Happened Was,” filmed in Atlanta’s Alliance Theater in October, Foxx recounted suffering a brain bleed that triggered a stroke, leaving him in a weeks-long coma with a 20-day memory gap. Addressing online speculation, he joked, “The Internet said Puffy was trying to kill me, that’s what the Internet was saying. I know what you thinking, ‘Diddy?’ Hell no, I left them parties early. I was out by 9, something don’t look right. It’s slippery in here.”

He added a darkly humorous twist, describing a vision during his coma: “I saw the tunnel. I didn’t see the light. It was hot in that tunnel. S— am I going to the wrong place in this mother—-er? Because I looked at the end of the tunnel, and I thought I saw the devil like, ‘Come on.’ Or is that Puffy?”
Foxx’s comedic barbs also referenced Diddy’s notorious “Freak Offs,” described in the September 17 federal indictment as “elaborate produced sex performances” that Combs allegedly orchestrated, directed, and recorded. The indictment accuses the disgraced music mogul of running a criminal enterprise through his companies, including Bad Boy Entertainment and Combs Enterprises, using “firearms, threats of violence, coercion and verbal, emotional, physical, and sexual abuse” to fulfill his desires. These events reportedly involved transporting sex workers across state lines and internationally, sometimes spanning multiple days.
As Diddy’s trial, which began on May 5, continues, a guilty verdict could mean a minimum of 15 years in prison or a life sentence.
