Nick Cannon Speaks Out on Diddy’s Alleged Abuse Scandal.
Nick Cannon has recently voiced his thoughts on the abuse allegations against Sean “Diddy” Combs, expressing his shock and deep concern. Cannon, who has had a close relationship with Diddy over the years, conveyed his disbelief upon learning about the accusations that have surfaced.
“I used to be close to Diddy and never knew he could do such things,” Cannon stated during an episode of his “Cancel Culture” podcast back in February. These comments have now resurfaced, coinciding with federal home raids on Diddy following sexual assault allegations brought by his ex-girlfriend, Cassie.
Diddy has firmly denied these claims, though he ultimately reached a settlement with Cassie. Cannon’s remarks are particularly poignant given his personal connections to those involved.
He shared, “I know these people—they’re not just public figures to me,” emphasizing the emotional complexity and the personal stakes involved in this unfolding drama. Expressing his sympathy for the victims, Cannon underscored the necessity of navigating this scandal with love and understanding.During a December interview on “Way Up with Angela Yee,” Cannon spoke candidly about his prayers for Cassie amidst the allegations against Diddy. He acknowledged that the public often lacks comprehensive details about such situations but stressed the importance of supporting those who come forward. “This is someone who was hurt, who was victimized,” he said, highlighting the need for compassionate and appropriate discourse.
The allegations against Diddy have shed light on the experiences of several young artists he has mentored over the years. One such figure is Jaden Smith. Rumors and discussions have long circulated regarding Diddy’s infamous parties, which reportedly involved young celebrities in potentially compromising situations.
Cannon noted that Jaden Smith’s parents, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, often attended these events, raising concerns about the environment in which these young stars were placed.
