Recently, a claim surfaced online suggesting that podcaster Joe Rogan had exposed arrest warrants for seven celebrities linked to Sean "Diddy" Combs' ongoing scandal. This rumor first appeared in a YouTube video uploaded by the channel Uncover Discovery on October 17, 2024.

“Joe Rogan Reveals ARREST Warrants for Hollywood Elites Involved with Diddy!” the post read.

The video quickly gained attention, amassing over 1.2 million views in under a week, along with more than 19,000 likes and 2,125 comments.

However, the viral claim has been proven false. Joe Rogan has not mentioned any arrest warrants for celebrities related to Combs, nor did the Uncover Discovery video provide any proof to support the rumor.

Furthermore, the channel’s About section includes a disclaimer that reads, “We do not claim any information to be factual or verified, and the content should not be taken as professional advice.”

The video, which began circulating last week, claimed that Rogan had revealed on The Joe Rogan Experience that at least seven high-profile celebrities allegedly linked to Diddy had arrest warrants. The 42-minute video, originally posted by Uncover Discovery, was titled, "Breaking News: They Are Done Now!" and featured an image of Rogan and Jennifer Lopez in handcuffs, escorted by a federal agent.

However, there was no verification or authentication of the claim in the video.

Instead, the video primarily included clips of Rogan's podcast where he discussed Diddy’s legal issues, along with news footage covering Diddy's recent arrest, federal charges, bail rejection, house searches, and related legal proceedings. It also featured press conferences from Diddy’s legal team, federal prosecutors, and lawyers representing his accusers. Interviews with outspoken Diddy critic Jaguar Wright and alleged victim Ally Carter were also included in the rumor video.

Moreover, the image of Jennifer Lopez in handcuffs used in the video thumbnail appeared to be AI-generated. As such, without any solid evidence that Joe Rogan revealed arrest warrants for multiple celebrities, this claim can be dismissed as fabricated and baseless.

The YouTube channel also clearly states in its bio that the content is for “entertainment and informational purposes only” and should not be considered factual.

Additionally, no credible media outlets or law enforcement agencies have reported any arrest warrants issued for celebrities allegedly connected to Sean Combs.
