Amid the recent news surrounding the arrest of Sean “Diddy” Combs, previous videos and clips showing his personality have resurfaced online.
One particular video that’s garnered new attention is Taylor Swift describing Diddy as her “dream date.”
In a recently unearthed clip from 2011, the “Fortnight” singer is seen participating in a celebrity trivia challenge on the popular TV show “Rachael Ray” when she was just 21 years old.
During the show, Swift answered a question from a group of people who she wanted to go to prom with by holding up photos of music icons like Diddy, Jennifer Lopez and Katy Perry.
Swift expressed her admiration for each individual she chose and favorably commented on Diddy: “Diddy has always been really good to me.”
She added, “He’ll be happy to be on the prom team.”
The host interjected and said: “He’s a gentleman, isn’t he? He’s a nice gentleman.”
After the video spread across social media platforms again, many people mentioned the dated nature of Swift’s response.
According to a comment on the video, “As a millennial, we admire these people so much. We don’t know what’s really going on. This is like bravery/speaking now is taylor. She likes 19-21 here.”
Another comment said: “Girl was nice to you for the wrong reasons” along with a crying face emoji.
Fans praised the consistent support and guidance of Swift’s parents, Andrea and Scott Swift, as she went through her journey in the music industry.
A third person commented: “She only has a superficial knowledge of Diddy because her parents have never not been there for her. Unlike his victim’s parents who abandoned their child and left with a salary check.”
“Swift’s mom would never let Taylor Hangout at stupid games! I can’t even imagine. It’s great that she’s had the guidance of her parents growing up in the industry. #lovemommaswift, ” a fourth commenter wrote.
As the controversy surrounding Diddy continues to rage, new and troubling allegations have emerged. These latest claims not only build on the serious allegations of sex trafficking and misconduct he faces but also include shocking reports of forced drug use and sexual harassment. Note the connection to the tragic death of Tupac Shakur.
