Nick Cannon shocked when he revealed that he attended a Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs party at the age of 16-years-old.

The 44-year-old father-of-12 was appeared on The Breakfast Club on Friday as he made the admission which hushed the hosts of the morning radio chat show.

Cannon and host Jess Hilarious were the only two people on the show who admitted to attending one of the rap mogul’s famous parties as the star has been moaning about the food in his hellhole jail.

The Wild ‘N Out host said: ‘I have even been to one when I was a kid like 16, 17 standing outside.’

The other two hosts of the morning show DJ Envy and Charlamagne tha God reacted audibly to the news by grunting.

Cannon explained: ‘I’ve lived my truth. I remember standing outside, you know, trying to get into a Puff party out here in New York.

‘Like how the One More Chance video look, that was real stuff out here. Like people standing at the door, who can get in and stuff. Bad Boy parties was official in New York in the late ’90s.’

The three hosts met the television personality’s statement with silence as he shrugged his shoulders and said ‘whatever.’

Nick began his career in the late 1990s as one-third of the rap group Da G4 Dope Bomb Squad.

Meanwhile, this comes after Diddy’s lawyer has outrageously claimed that the most challenging part of being locked up in jail on sex trafficking charges has been what’s on the menu.

When asked how Combs was coping in detention at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, the rapper’s attorney Marc Agnifilo told People, ‘I think the food’s probably the roughest part of it.’

Outside the courthouse, another attorney for the disgraced musician, Anthony Ricco, boldly compared his client to civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. 

‘Dr. King called it the law of unintended consequences,’ Riccio told reporters.

Ricco added, ‘Sometimes the more you push a person down, the stronger they become.’ 

The Metropolitan Detention Center, where Combs is currently being held, typically serves hamburgers, baked fish or beef tacos for lunch during the week, with scrambled eggs and biscuits on the weekends.

For dinner, they offer chicken fajitas, pasta and roast beef, as well as healthy and vegetarian meals.

The rapper formerly known as Puff Daddy has also noticeably slimmed down.

While some speculated that his weight loss was due to his recent arrest, sources close to TMZ told the outlet that he began a health regimen before being taken into custody.

Combs reportedly spent a significant amount of time in his Miami mansion this year as federal authorities investigated him. 

During this period, he adopted a healthier lifestyle that included exercise. While the exact amount of weight he lost is unclear, photos taken before his arrest suggest that he had already begun to shed pounds.

The disgraced hitmaker appeared before Judge Arun Subramanian in Manhattan federal court on Thursday. 

Combs reportedly looked miserable in court after a brief emotional reunion with his mother and children, despite his lawyers securing a May 2025 trial date.

Diddy’s mother, Janice Smalls Combs, along with his daughters Chance, D’Lila, and Jessie Combs, attended the hearing.

His sons, Justin Dior and King Combs, were also present to show their support for their embattled father.

The rapper’s 84-year-old mother was heckled on her way in as critics shouted: ‘Your son is a predator.’

Combs was charged with a host of sex trafficking and racketeering offenses following his September 16 arrest. Since then, upward of 120 victims have already come forward.

The 54-year-old music mogul was granted a few extra minutes to stay after the hearing, while his family remained seated and court officials cleared the press from the room.

When asked by reporters if Combs had a chance to speak with his family, his lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, replied ‘a little bit’ — a rare privilege for criminal defendants, who usually have only seconds to exit the courtroom.

Judge Subramanian scheduled another court appearance for Combs in December, though his lawyers may decide it isn’t necessary.

The judge also promised to issue a gag order, limiting what both the prosecution and defense can publicly discuss regarding the charges and the sex trafficking investigation.

Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges filed against him last month, which include racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking, stemming from allegations dating back to 2008. 

The rapper has been denied bail twice, though his lawyers have filed another appeal for his release this week.

The allegations against him escalated after a 2016 video surfaced showing the rapper assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, in a hotel.

On Wednesday, his legal team submitted court papers accusing the Department of Homeland Security of leaking the video to the media.

Following the release of the incriminating footage, Combs took to social media, expressing remorse, stating, ‘I was disgusted when I did it, and I’m disgusted now.’

Several accusers have come forward with disturbing allegations against Combs, including a woman who claims she was violently raped by him in his recording studio in 2001.

Combs’ mother, Janice Smalls Combs, has fiercely condemned what she calls her son’s ‘public lynching.’ 

Speaking to The Daily Mail, she said, ‘As a mother, I am devastated and profoundly saddened by the allegations made against my son.’

‘It is heartbreaking to see my son judged not by the truth, but by a narrative built on lies,’ she continued. ‘Witnessing what feels like a public lynching before he’s had the chance to prove his innocence is a pain too unbearable to describe.’

Combs’ mother defended her son against the ‘repulsive allegations,’ claiming that his imperfections don’t make him guilty.

However, an indictment released last month accuses Combs of coercing and abusing women for years with the assistance of a network of associates who allegedly helped silence the victims through violence, including kidnapping and physical assaults.

The indictment claims Combs hosted notorious ‘Freak Offs,’ fueled by drugs, that went on for days and left guests requiring IV drips to recover.

Earlier this month, attorney Tony Buzbee announced he is representing 120 accusers, including one who claims he was just nine years old when the rapper allegedly abused him. Buzbee warned, ‘The names will shock you.’

He further said that the allegations involve ‘many powerful people’ and ‘many dirty secrets,’ adding that his team has ‘pictures, video, and texts’ to support the claims.

‘We will expose the enablers who allowed this behavior behind closed doors,’ Buzbee told reporters. ‘We will pursue this matter no matter who the evidence implicates.’
