Precious Muir previously worked as a Playboy bunny and even attended parties hosted by rapper Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs during her time working as a model in New York

Sean “P Diddy” Combs has been likened to Hugh Hefner, with a former model claiming they “had the same handbook.”

Precious Muir worked as a model in New York in the early 2000s. She attended parties hosted by both Hugh and P Diddy during her early 20s and suggested the two men used similar tactics to become the “king of all parties.”

In an exclusive interview with the Mirror US, Precious said: “It’s almost like to me, Hugh Hefner and Diddy had the same handbook as it were. It’s almost like these very powerful men have the same formula of how they run their circle and how they create the atmosphere that they want to be the king of all parties.”

Precious also claimed the same people would attend both Diddy and Hugh’s parties. She explained: “The same people, the same celebrities, the same athletes that attend Diddy’s parties, they’d go to the Hugh Hefner parties and the ones that go to Hugh Hefner parties go to the Diddy parties. It’s the same crowd.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Precious recalled what happened when she first met Hefner. She told us: “We were at his house and they said, ‘Oh he’s coming down. He’s coming down to greet you girls.’ I was like, ‘Oh my God, I’ve really admired this man for so long because he’s the King of Playboy.’

“We were told we were going to take a picture together. And he greeted me, he said, ‘Hi Precious,’ and I said, ‘Hi,’ I just barely said hi because I was like, ‘This is Hugh Hefner!’ Like, it was just crazy to me.

“So, we went to take a picture, the photographer was taking a picture, and as we were taking a picture, he groped my a— behind. And that was my first experience with him.”

Precious also opened up about her experience at Diddy’s bashes. She said the invitations to the wild events were the “opportunity of a lifetime,” but claimed there was a dark side.

Precious told us: “When you’re presented with that kind of experience, you think, ‘Wow, this is an opportunity to go far in my career. I can meet the right people, I can get to meet all these amazing celebrities, like, why not go?’ It’s an opportunity pretty much of a lifetime because not everybody gets the opportunity to go to these white parties.”

Precious explained how the events were invite-only and said she was approached by a VIP host who asked her to attend. She continued: “He basically said, ‘I host these amazing parties, everything is taken care of, you don’t have to worry about anything, we provide accommodation so when you go to the Hamptons, there is a house you can stay at, which is very beautiful, very lavish, very stylish and you don’t have to worry about anything, you don’t have to pay for anything, everything is covered.'”

The former model said she went to the party to “see where it could take me.” Once at the party, however, she described feeling as though she and her fellow models were “seen maybe as fresh meat.”

She explained: “We were just kind of thrown in at the deep end amongst all these people that are well established, very well-known celebrities and so when we came into the party, people automatically knew that we were new faces, we were new talent and we were very vulnerable. We were seen maybe as fresh meat, someone new to the business we can manipulate.”

Her comments about Diddy’s events come as the rapper is currently awaiting trial after he was arrested and charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, transportation, and engaging in prostitution. He has vehemently denied any wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty in court.

He is also facing several civil lawsuits filed by Texas-based attorney Tony Buzbee. The lawyer previously claimed to have 120 individuals who have either sued or are planning to sue Combs.

Responding to the announcement of the lawsuits, Combs’ attorney Erica Wolff said: “We cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus. That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors.”

She concluded: “He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court if and when claims are filed and served, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.”

In a second statement about the lawsuits, Diddy’s attorneys told the Mirror US: “The press conference and 1-800 number that preceded today’s barrage of filings were clear attempts to garner publicity. Mr. Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defenses, and the integrity of the judicial process. In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone — adult or minor, man or woman.”
