Diddy wasn’t totally absent from the Golden Globes this year, as host Nikki Glaser made an off-color joke about the embattled mogul’s “freak-offs,” much to the audience’s dismay.
Glaser became the first woman ever to host the iconic awards show in its 82-year history on Sunday night (January 5). While most of her jokes landed quite well, the Diddy reference in her opening monologue certainly wasn’t a favorite.

“Zendaya, you were incredible in Dune,” she began. “Oh my God, I woke up for all of your scenes. You were so good. And Challengers, girl? Oh my God! That movie was more sexually charged than Diddy’s credit card. I mean, seriously.”
She continued: “I’m sorry – I’m upset too. The afterparty is not going to be as good this year, but we have to move on. I know a Stanley Tucci freak-off doesn’t have the same ring to it. No baby oil this year, just lots of olive oil.”

The joke didn’t really elicit a laugh but more groans and sighs, and the internet didn’t seem to enjoy it either. The rest of the night went without a hitch, however.

In other news, Diddy has been labeled a “monster” in a trailer for the upcoming documentary, The Making of a Bad Boy.
The film, which will be released by Peacock on January 14, explores the embattled mogul’s journey to stardom and shocking sexual assault allegations, featuring interviews with a number of close associates.
Some of the names set to appear in the documentary include former Bad Boy producer Ron “Amen-Ra” Lawrence, journalist Kim Osorio, ex-bodyguard Gene Deal and singer Al B. Sure, who shares a son with Puffy’s late ex Kim Porter (and who has insinuated that Diddy was responsible for him ending up in a coma).
One talking head in the film brands the accused sex trafficker a “monster,” while the doc also features unseen footage of Diddy partying.

One anonymous voice in the trailer also adds: “I’ve been with Sean for quite a while and I’ve captured a lot of moments. Any time a studio or any rooms is red, he’s making love and sex. Some of the ones who went in the room, for sure they were underage.”
An official synopsis reads: “Featuring never-before-seen footage and stories from those who know him best, Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy sheds light on his childhood, rise to fame, and recent criminal allegations, challenging viewers to rethink everything they thought they knew about the mogul behind the music—and the mugshot.”
