LeBron James is under social media scrutiny due to an old video where he said, "No party like a Diddy party," during an Instagram Live session. This comes amid ongoing allegations against rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs, accused of running a criminal enterprise involving sex trafficking, forced labor, and other crimes, according to CNN. Diddy's infamous parties, particularly his "white" and "Freak Off" gatherings, attracted high-profile celebrities, including Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Kim Kardashian, and Ashton Kutcher, as reported by American media outlets.

Former adult film star Adria English also accused Diddy of sex trafficking at his parties, claiming she was forced into compromising situations. While no formal allegations have been directed at LeBron, his past comment sparked debate over potential ties to the events. Boxer Devin Haney has also been linked to the scandal through a photo with Diddy, although no direct accusations have been made against him. Meanwhile, motorsport icon Lewis Hamilton was seen praising Diddy in a since-deleted 2018 tweet.

The investigation into Diddy's activities continues, with public interest focusing not only on his actions but also on those who attended his controversial parties. However, no evidence has yet surfaced connecting LeBron, Haney, or Hamilton to any illegal activities.
