Russell Brand Defends His Presence at Diddy’s Controversial Party
Russell Brand has addressed his presence at one of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ infamous “freak-off” parties, asserting he left the event early and did not witness any questionable activities.
The 49-year-old English actor and podcaster, known for his eccentric personality, clarified his attendance amidst ongoing scandals involving both him and Diddy.
Brand’s Explanation of His Attendance
Brand revealed that he attended the party during his marriage to singer Katy Perry and spent most of the evening conversing with comedian Tom Green. He claimed he left around 7 p.m., citing his marital responsibilities and a desire to avoid situations misaligned with his spiritual pursuits.
In his words, “I’m glad I did. It turns out there was stuff that went on that I was not qualified to handle as someone who craves a deep and profound connection to God.” Reflecting on his decisions, he added, “How would you have done if you had been invited to a Diddy party back in the day?”
