The latest tell-all testimony about rap mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs comes from his former personal assistant in Investigation Discovery’s docuseries “The Fall of Diddy.” The man didn’t speak on the so-called “freak off” parties but revealed a never-before-heard-of sex-themed occasion the rapper is alleged to have held.
On the episode aired Tuesday (Jan 28.), Phillip Pines told ID he was often a witness to Combs’ alleged sexual debauchery. Though he didn’t bear witness to the “freak offs” (or what prosecutors describe as days-long, drug-induced sex parties), he claims he was on call to provide supplies for an event Combs called “Wild King Nights.” Pines claimed he was instructed to bring a variety of drugs, alcohol, sex toys and (as anticipated) baby oil.
“We usually had a laundry list of items that included lights, alcohol, marijuana, ketamine, Molly. You have mushrooms on the top there … baby oil and astro glide [lubricant] are very important; candles, incense, Apple TVs, electronics, computers, iPads. Obviously there was, you know, male libido supplements, stuff like that,” Pines said to journalist Mara S. Campo.
Following the affair, Pines said in the documentary that Combs would call him for an “emergency cleanup,” claiming the rapper had destroyed the hotel room following the event.
“That was, for me, probably one of the hardest things to do—when you get there and you see the wreckage,” Pines said.
Pines wasn’t only tasked to be the cleanup guy but was once forced into participating, he said. Pines claimed on one occasion, Combs told him to “prove his loyalty” by participating in sexual acts.
“He grabbed me by the shoulders, kind of gave me, like, a quick massage—like a coach would give a player that’s about to enter the game—and handed me a condom, pushed me to a girl that was on the couch, a guest,” Pines said. He added that he made sure to receive consent from the woman and only participated in fear of retaliation.
Pines filed a lawsuit against the rapper accusing him of sexual battery, sex trafficking and intentional infliction of emotional distress. In response to the new docuseries episode, Combs’ attorneys responded with the same statement they’ve shared with multiple media outlets, calling the accusations against the rapper “pure fiction.”
On Sept. 16, the 55-year-old rap mogul was arrested in Manhattan by federal authorities, six months after they raided his two homes in Los Angeles and Miami. His indictment was unsealed the following morning, revealing charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and engaging in interstate transportation for prostitution. The allegations against Combs include sexual abuse, physical abuse, bribery and various drug offenses.
The most notable claims stem from his so-called “freak off” sex parties, where prosecutors allege women and men were drugged and forced to perform sexual acts at Combs’ pleasure. He was also accused of using video footage to blackmail the victims into compliance. The accusations were first brought forth by singer Casandra “Cassie” Ventura who claimed in a lawsuit that she was forced to ingest drugs and perform sexual acts with men as Combs watched.
Combs faces criminal charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and engaging in interstate transportation for prostitution in federal court. He has pleaded not guilty, and was denied bail.
