Lil Tay is facing backlash for making a Diddy joke on Instagram.
On Wednesday, August 20, the influencer, 18, posted a video in which she holds two bottles of baby oil with an image of Diddy in the background. She sings along to “Every Breath You Take” by The Police. Text overlaying the clip reads, “Coming soon… .”
Lil Tay (real name: Claire Eileen Qi Hope) captioned the post, “Should I do it? 
.”
Her followers voiced alarm in the comments section.

“Please NO,” one follower replied, while another worried, “are you okay what is happening.”
Others wrote, “That is not even a little bit funny,” “What an insult to his victims” and “This isn’t something to joke about Tay, these kinda things happened in the real world so for you asking if you should do the ‘freak off’ what do you think..”
Lil Tay continued the disturbing content with another video where she lip-synced to someone saying, “Everybody know ain’t no party like a Diddy party.” The clip cut to footage of a dozen or so baby oil bottles.
On Instagram Stories, she wrote, “Whoever comments the correct number of bottles gets $500.”

Diddy, 55, was arrested and indicted on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering in September 2024. He pleaded not guilty to the charges and has denied all allegations. Ten months later, the disgraced music mogul was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, but he was acquitted on other charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
Lily Tay’s Diddy posts are the latest instances of her courting controversy online.
Earlier this month, the OnlyFans star took to Instagram and disparaged women who choose to work in 9 to 5 jobs.
“If you’re over the age of 25 and you’re still working a 9 to 5, you are a failure,” she said in an August 16 video. “Like, by then you should’ve already made your bag. And ladies, every single one of you should drop the link, like me. Literally just make your bag. Who gives a f*** what anybody thinks?”

She claimed that her family “kicked [her] out,” adding that she was “disowned.”
“They don’t talk to me anymore. They don’t f*** with me,” Lil Tay said. “But who gives a s***. I can literally buy their whole life if I wanted to. I’m good. Also f*** education ‘cause Harvard was never gonna help me make eight figures. That’s why I dropped out of it and I dropped the link instead.”
