Nick Cannon recalls attending Diddy's infamous party at the age of 16

Nick Cannon and Sean "Diddy" Combs

Nick Cannon shocked listeners on The Breakfast Club when he revealed that he attended one of Sean "Diddy" Combs’ parties at just 16 years old. The 44-year-old shared the shocking detail during his appearance on the popular morning radio show on Friday.

Cannon and co-host Jess Hilarious were the only two people on the show who admitted to having experienced one of the rap mogul’s now-infamous gatherings. Cannon reminisced about his teenage years, saying, "I’ve even been to one when I was a kid like 16, 17, standing outside."

The hosts, DJ Envy and Charlamagne tha God reacted audibly, expressing their surprise as Cannon described the scene at one of Diddy's famous New York parties in the late ‘90s.

“I remember standing outside, you know, trying to get into a Puff party out here in New York. Like how the ‘One More Chance’ video looked—that was real stuff,” Cannon explained, comparing the experience to the iconic music video.

Cannon’s story about his early brushes with the glitzy world of celebrity comes during a time when Diddy is facing serious legal issues. The music mogul is currently detained on sex trafficking charges and his lawyer recently claimed that Diddy’s biggest challenge in jail is the food.

Diddy’s attorney Marc Agnifilo told People magazine that the food in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, where the rapper is being held, is the toughest part of his situation. Another attorney, Anthony Ricco, even compared Diddy's struggle to civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr, stating, "Sometimes the more you push a person down, the stronger they become."

Diddy, once known for throwing extravagant parties attended by several A-list celebrities, is now facing accusations from dozens of victims in a sex trafficking and racketeering case. He was arrested on September 16.
