Chris Rock once made a joke about Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs teaching kids “wrong from wronger” in a clip which has resurfaced amid the rapper’s ongoing legal trouble.

P Diddy, 55, was arrested in September on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has also been hit with civil lawsuits filed by attorney Tony Buzbee, including allegations of rape, sexual assault and sexual abuse.

The Bad Boy records founder has denied all allegations against him and pleaded not guilty to the federal charges in court. As Combs awaits trial, more attention is being paid to his past – including comments made about him by other celebrities.

At the 2003 VMAs, Chris Rock referenced the 55-year-old as he hosted the event. The comedian joked about Diddy’s time on the program Making the Band.

Making the Band aired on various networks, including MTV, from 2000 to 2009. The program followed aspiring singers as they competed for the chance to form a new music group and sign a record deal. Diddy was a producer for the show.

“My favorite show on MTV is Making the Band with P Diddy,” Chris began. “It’s the best show on television because you get to see Puff Daddy being a mentor to the children. And who better than Puff Daddy to show the kids wrong from wronger? That’s right, you get to see Puff Daddy pass down great fatherly advice.”

The clip has resurfaced on TikTok, with one user saying the joke has “aged so badly”. Another person wrote: “After diddys arrest…”

A disappointed fan said: “Chris rock used to be my favorite VMA’s host.” A fourth person simply commented: “OUCH.”

As the video has resurfaced, Diddy’s attorneys have again requested bail as he awaits federal trial. Diddy has previously been denied bail, but in a new motion filed on Friday his attorneys cited similar cases in which defendants had been released.

They have also suggested strict bail conditions for Combs to follow, including around-the-clock security monitoring and restrictions on his ability to contact anyone but his lawyers. The proposed bail package, which was obtained by the Associated Press, would also include a $50 million bond.

Diddy’s attorneys also pointed to new evidence they claim “makes clear that the government’s case is thin.” The alleged new evidence refutes the government’s claim that a March 2016 video showing Combs physically assaulting his then-girlfriend occurred during a coerced “freak off,” according to the rapper’s attorneys. Instead, they have claimed the encounter was “a minutes-long glimpse into a complex but decade-long consensual relationship.”

The lawyers further argued that the conditions inside the MDC violate Combs’ rights to participate in his defense. The Mirror US has approached Diddy’s attorneys for comment.
