Nick Cannon is reflecting on going to a Diddy party at the age of 16.
Earlier this week, a clip was posted on the official Instagram account of the ‘The Breakfast Club’ radio show. The clip showed footage of Cannon co-hosting alongside the show’s hosts, Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy.
Furthermore, in the clip, Cannon asks the hosts if they’ve ever been to a Diddy party. Both men seemingly decline before Cannon asks a separate question to the room.
“So what’s classified as a Diddy party?” he said. “You’ve definitely been to a Bad Boy event.”
Both men continued to deny ever attending a Diddy or Diddy adjacent event. As the conversation continued, Cannon explained:
“I’ve even been to one when I was a kid 16-17 [years old],” he said.
Cannon explained that he remembers waiting outside a particular Diddy party and officially attending another.
“How the ‘One More Chance’ [music] video looked that was real stuff out here. People standing at the door… Bad Boy parties was official…” he said. “Everybody gets scared to talk [about it] because they got something to hide. [But] I ain’t got nothing to hide I was in there Harlem-shaking, doing all of that stuff. But it wasn’t c’mon now.”
Ultimately, Cannon explained that he doesn’t partake in drinking or other substances, so he “doesn’t know” about any of the nefarious acts that allegedly took place at Diddy’s events.
Social media users reacted to Cannon’s comments in The Shade Room’s comment section.

As The Shade Room previously reported, Diddy was arrested by federal agents on September 16. A few days later, on September 20, footage surfaced of him being taken into custody while in the lobby of a hotel in New York City.
On September 17, Diddy’s federal charges were revealed to be sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution, per The Shade Room. Additionally, a 14-page federal indictment accused the 54-year-old of utilizing his business ventures and employees to engage in or attempt actions of “sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice.”
Earlier this week, a judge revealed that the 54-year-old’s trial has been scheduled to begin on May 5, 2025. Until then, Diddy was reportedly remain in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York.
