Diddy got a little hot under the collar at the 2023 Met Gala â and not just because of his sweltering outfit.
The Bad Boy boss was among the many A-list celebrities who attended the annual glitzy fundraising bash in New York City on Monday night (May 1).
While the lavish outfits are usually the main topic of conversation, it was Diddyâs undefined relationship with Yung Miami that was put under the microscope on the red carpet.
During a brief yet chat with La La Anthony for Vogue, Puff was seen sweating bullets as he was grilled about his seemingly on-again, off-again fling with the City Girls star, who was his date for the night.
âI have the million dollar question right now. Are you ready for it? ⊠So, do yâall officially go together real bad?â La La asked, which left Diddy wiping sweat from his forehead before attempting to deflect the question to Miami.
Not letting him off the hook, La La then put her arm around the Harlem-bred hitmaker â who was draped in a custom couture Sean John suit and cape that was designed in honor of the late fashion icon Karl Lagerfeld, the theme of this yearâs Met Gala â and pressed him for a straight answer.

After stumbling over his words and pleading ignorance over the question, Diddy finally replied â albeit without quite giving La La the clarity she was looking for.
âWe definitely go together real bad. Sheâs my date for the night, sheâs incredible,â he said. âWe donât put titles on it. Everybody wants us to put a title on it; we donât put titles on it.

âThis is like my best friend in the world, one of the most beautiful people God has blessed me to meet, and Iâm blessed that sheâs my date tonight.â
A significantly less ruffled Yung Miami took the question in stride and echoed Diddyâs sentiment by simply offering: âItâs just a good date night.â

Diddy and Yung Miamiâs Met Gala date came as something of a surprise considering the City Girls rapper had alluded to them calling it quits just days earlier.
When asked during an interview with The Cut last week if she and Puff were still together, Miami replied: âNo,â before confirming theyâre both very much âsingle.â

âWeâre still friends! Weâre still good friends!â she said. âBut weâre single. Thatâs not my man. We had our own situation, Iâm not gonna put a title on it. We were fucking with each other hard. We were together every day at one point. He supported me, I supported him. Iâll let the internet call it whatever they want to call it.â
The duo first sparked dating rumors almost two years ago when they were seen holding hands at Quality Control CEO Pierre âPeeâ Thomasâ birthday party in June 2021.
However, it wasnât until last summer that they made their romance official, with Diddy confirming that they were âdatingâ during an appearance on Miamiâs REVOLT talk show, Caresha Please.
The pairâs budding romance came under scrutiny again late last year when Puff announced that he had quietly fathered a daughter, Love Sean Combs, whose mother is 28-year-old cybersecurity specialist Dana Tran.

Although the news led Yung Miami to be labeled by some as Diddyâs âside chick,â the Florida native revealed she wasnât kept in the dark about it.
âYeah, I did,â she replied when asked by G Herbo if she knew about Puffâs baby during an episode of Caresha Please. âI think communication is the key. I feel like when you dealing with somebody, communication is the key. It wasnât a surprise.â
