The P Diddy affair gives rise to the most convoluted theories.
Sean Combs, his real name, is accused of rape, sexual assault and sex trafficking by more than a hundred victims. He is officially considered by American justice as a “sexual predator”. The American authorities, recalls Paris Match, would have found 1000 bottles of lubricant, drugs, and “arranged sexual rooms” at his home.
But in parallel with the consequent trial to come, more or less conspiratorial and fanciful allegations follow one another, particularly on TikTok, in an attempt to pin down alleged accomplices. We have already mentioned the theories that directly concern Jennifer Lopez. And those that touch on the sacrosanct Beyoncé, or Queen B.
And among these rumors, one of the most viral remains undeniably… The one that links the rap megastar to Leonardo Dicaprio. In the 90s, in full Leo-mania, it was actually not difficult to find photographs of the hunk from Titanic in the rapper's Hedges Banks Drive house (in East Hampton), or even during his “White Parties”, his famous evenings. Photos dating from 98, where the actor actually wears characteristic white outfits.
Evenings where, according to the victims' allegations, rapes, sexual assaults, chemical submissions took place…
In recent months, the mention of Dicaprio has sparked its share of allegations. Just recently, a People.com publication reporting Leonardo Dicaprio's recent reunion with Kate Winslet revealed in the Comments section of Internet users in the process of rebelling. Anthology: “Too bad he's on P Diddy's list”, “He's been Diddy-ized”, “It's too late Leo (P Diddy)”, “He can't see his very good friend P Diddy again“.
Deciphering a rumor…
Leonardo Dicaprio and P Diddy: famous “list”, fake news and “web archives”
Like Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Snoop Dog, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, Leonardo Dicaprio has found himself accused for months by Internet users of having been an accomplice of P. Diddy.
But why?
It's simple. Last October, a list with extra flammable potential was widely relayed on Twitter, then on other platforms. On this list, a quantity of names of potentially “accomplices” celebrities. Including that of Leonardo Dicaprio.
However, our colleagues from franceinfo debunked in their True or False fact checking section, this list was most certainly generated by artificial intelligence. It is therefore not naturally strong evidence of supposed wrongdoing, or even hypothetical allegations.
In parallel, observe franceinfo, “Internet users search the web archives to find photos of public figures who allegedly posed with the rapper, to accuse them of complicity“in what is clearly akin, warns the media, to “a hunt” fueling “the idea of a sprawling organization” around the rap superstar.
In fact, this AI-generated list is just the tip of the iceberg.
“White Parties”: Leonardo Dicaprio “tries to be forgotten”
Despite fact checking, assumptions persist.
Since the photos of “Leo” at the “White Parties” do indeed exist.
Moreover, specifies Le Point by reporting interviews with the Oscar-winning actor, if Leonardo DiCaprio did not hesitate to appear near Puff Daddy, “dressed all in white and surrounded by bottles of champagne after his success in Titanic“, he would now minimize his participation in these famous not-so-secret parties in the press: “he hasn't been in contact with Sean Combs in years“, would assure a close source in the English-speaking tabloids.
Notified presence of Dicaprio at these white parties, just like those of Jennifer Lopez, Ashton Kutcher, Kim Kardashian…
It doesn’t (still) stop there.
Indeed, report our colleagues from Le Figaro, the enormous scandal surrounding the P. Diddy affair, and more precisely the complaint from the rapper's ex-partner, reported in the indictment of the federal prosecutor's office in Manhattan, has also highlighted highlight the existence of alternative evenings to White Parties: Freak Offs.
Evenings during which “Diddy” allegedly solicited “elaborate sexual performances in the presence of prostitutes, male or female, under the influence of drugs“. The existence of these evenings once again influences Internet users' theories regarding the presence of supposed celebrities… And supposedly “accomplices”.
