Speaking on the “PBD Podcast” hosted by Patrick Bet-David, Terrence Howard said he was once invited by Diddy under the impression that they would be working on acting techniques.
But, according to Howard, things quickly took a strange turn, as Diddy would just be “sitting” and “just looking” at him.
“Puffy invited me, for weeks, asking me to come teach him how to — wanted me to be his acting coach for a while. He didn’t have any material, nothing to work on,” Howard recalled, alleging that Diddy simply stared at him and later asked him to play music—only to continue watching him.
Terrence Howard said it became clear after a second invitation that Diddy’s intentions were personal, not professional.
“That’s when I knew he didn’t want acting lessons — he wanted something else,” the Empire star said.
Without accusing Diddy of any crime, the actor said he felt the situation was inappropriate.
“I knew what was going on. He wanted to have sex with me,” Howard claimed, stressing that he also asked his assistant for clarity.
Howard’s assistant allegedly responded, “‘I think he’s trying to f–k you,’” which prompted the “Iron Man” actor to allegedly cut off all communication with Diddy moving forward.
“Now you know to be hands off with somebody,” Howard explained before noting he allegedly had similar experiences with “a number of producers,” whom he had to “threaten to punch” or “knock their head off.”
“A lot of people give up their man card to make it in Hollywood. I never did. I refused. When you approach a real man about his masculinity, you’re going to get a real reaction back,” he added.
“I’ve lost businesses because I don’t bend over in that way. I don’t compromise. I don’t play gay roles. I don’t kiss a man. I don’t do that s–t because the man card means everything.”
Podcast host Patrick Bet-David had originally asked a general question about the hidden side of the industry, but Howard’s response quickly led to a direct mention of Diddy, who is currently facing several lawsuits and allegations from other individuals.
So far, Diddy has not responded publicly to Terrence Howard’s comments. No official complaint or legal action has been filed in relation to this incident.
KanyiDaily recalls that American rapper Meek Mill had publicly distanced himself from Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs amid allegations of sexual assault and trafficking against the music mogul.
