Lamorne Morris and Damon Wayans Jr. revealed they both attended — and in one case crashed — Sean “Diddy” Combs’ infamous parties.
“We snuck into a Diddy party in 2009,” Morris, 41, revealed on the Wednesday, October 23, episode of his “The Lamorning After” podcast. Wayans Jr., 41, asked whether it was “before the freak offs,” to which Morris replied, “I’m sure he was doing freak offs then. But we didn’t see one.”
Morris clarified that he actually crashed “a day party” with his friends.
“It was one of those big all-white parties. I was not invited,” he admitted. “Me and my boys, we snuck in. There was a shuttle van and we got on the shuttle van that was taking us up to the house. All we knew was you had to be in a white. We found out where the van was and when we get in [the house], they asked for our wristbands. We didn’t have wristbands.”

He continued: “My boy walks away and within five minutes, he comes back with an envelope. He’s got like five wristbands in there. I don’t know how he got them. He said he found them on a table.”
Wayans Jr., however, joked that Morris’ friend must have stolen them. “He was like covered in baby oil and exhausted,” he quipped, referencing the allegation that Diddy had purchased 1,000 bottles of baby oil. Morris then joined in, adding, “He’s like, ‘I did what I had to do.’”
As for Wayans Jr., he only attended two “normal parties” thrown by Diddy, 54.
“That’s the thing. I think they’re getting conflated that there was the regular party and the freak offs,” the comedian noted. “So I went to a regular one. It was an all-white party. I remember there being beds outside or something. And chains.”
Amidst the jokes Morris and Wayans Jr. made it clear that they didn’t see anything out of the ordinary at the gatherings they attended. However, both of them said they were not “surprised” when news broke in September that Diddy was arrested on charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution. After his arrest, Diddy issued a plea of not guilty but was denied bail — he currently faces up to life in prison if convicted.
“When it came out that all this stuff was happening, I was not surprised,” Morris admitted. Wayans Jr. said he felt the same way, adding, “I wasn’t either. But only because he’s a big weirdo to me. But aside from that, his kids are normal. I know his son Quincy. He is super chill and normal. But that was a little weird.”

Later in the episode, Wayans Jr. said he didn’t know if the claims against Diddy are “true.”
“[I don’t know] if everything that everybody’s saying is true,” he clarified while Morris noted in a humorous tone, “There’s like small details that are not true. Like, no, he didn’t purchase the baby oil himself. It was not a thousand bottles.”
In the 14-page unsealed indictment, prosecutors alleged that he “abused, threatened and coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his conduct.”
“Combs relied on the employees, resources and influence of the multifaceted business empire that he led and controlled — creating a criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in, and attempted to engage in, among other crimes, sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery and obstruction of justice,” the indictment continued about the accusations, some of which date back to 2009.
According to the indictment, Diddy allegedly hosted “elaborate and produced sex performances” called “Freak Offs” at his gatherings. The documents claimed that law enforcement officials found “‘Freak Off’ supplies including narcotics and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant” when they raided Diddy’s Miami and Beverly Hills homes in March in connection with a federal sex trafficking investigation.
Diddy’s attorney Marc Agnifilo denied the accusations in a statement.
A Timeline of Diddy’s Legal Troubles, Accusations and Arrests
“We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Agnifilo told Us Weekly after the arrest. “Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children and working to uplift the Black community.”
Agnifilo added: “He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges. Please reserve your judgment until you have all the facts. These are the acts of an innocent man with nothing to hide, and he looks forward to clearing his name in court.”
Diddy has since been named in dozens of lawsuits where he has been accused of sexual assault, all of which his legal team continues to deny. Diddy’s six oldest kids recently issued a statement of support for their father.
“The past month has devastated our family,” they wrote in a joint Instagram post on Tuesday, October 22. “Many have judged both him and us based on accusations, conspiracy theories and false narratives that have spiraled into absurdity on social media. We stand united, supporting you every step of the way.”
