    Cliff Notes – Oscar-nominated Hollywood star claims Diddy ‘tried to have sex with him’

    • Terrence Howard alleges that Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs made sexual advances towards him, claiming Combs invited him under the pretext of seeking acting lessons.
    • Combs is currently in police custody facing serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, which he denies; his trial is scheduled for May 5.
    • Howard’s comments highlight broader concerns about masculinity in Hollywood, as he expresses a refusal to compromise his principles or accept sexual advances.

    Oscar-nominated Hollywood star claims Diddy ‘tried to have sex with him’

    Actor Terrence Howard has claimed he thinks Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs attempted to have sex with him, or as he put it… ‘Diddy was getting ready to fxxk him’.

    Terrence Howard has revealed he believes that Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs once made sexual advances towards him.

    Combs, who is currently awaiting trial for charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution – which he denies – has been held in police custody in jail since September.

    Bail has been repeatedly denied over ‘very significant concerns’ regarding alleged substance abuse and ‘what appears to be anger issues’, according to US Magistrate Judge Robyn F Tarnofsky.

    This week the controversial rapper, 55, was also hit with five new criminal counts, including racketeering and sex trafficking once more, according to court records, to which he has also pleaded not guilty.

    Now Hollywood actor Howard, who was Oscar nominated for his turn as a drug dealer and pimp in 2005 film Hustle & Flow, has claimed that Combs ‘invited him for weeks’ to meet previously on the supposed grounds that he wanted acting lessons.

    Simply staring at him

    However, the 56-year-old alleged that Combs spent their time together simply staring at him, before asking him over to ‘hang out’ one weekend.

    The Empire star, 56, has recalled Combs inviting him over to his house, firstly to be his acting coach, but ‘just looking’ instead of acting.

    When Howard’s unnamed assistant then suggested that, in his opinion, the music artist was ‘trying to f**k’ Howard, the Empire star cut contact.

    ‘Puffy invited me for weeks, asking me to come and teach him how to – he wanted me to be his acting coach for a while,’ said Howard, using one of Combs’ former nicknames, on the PBD Podcast.

    ‘[I] go there, and he’s sitting around just looking. I’m like: “Okay, what’s the material you want to work on?” He’s just looking at me.

    ‘Then next thing you know, okay: “Hey, will you help me? I wanna hear your music.” So, I come over there and I’m playing the music. He’s sitting there, just looking at me, like waiting.’

    Howard continued: ‘So then my assistant was like: “He wants to hang out with you next weekend.” I was like: “For what?” He’s like: “I think he’s trying to f**k you.”’

    Howard’s former assistant suggested he thought Combs was ‘trying to f**k’ him following another invitation to ‘hang out’, after which the actor cut contact.

    ‘I was like: “Oh, okay. Now I get it.” So now, no more communication. Now you know to be hands-off with somebody,’ he recalled.

    Ray and Crash actor Howard then alleged further: ‘A number of producers come in and make the approach, and you threaten to punch them in the mouth, or threaten to knock their head off for talking to you like – or looking at you – like you’re a woman.’

    The former Marvel star, who played James ‘Rhodey’ Rhodes in 2008’s Iron Man, also defended his reaction, saying: ‘When you approach a real man about his masculinity, you’re gonna get a real reaction back. It’s a difference when a guy walks in a room and when a man walks into a room, and a man don’t take the same things that a guy will accept.’

    He further claimed that he had always strived to ‘be the man in the room, and that’s always been my whole thing’.

    ‘I’ve lost businesses because I don’t bend over in that way,’ he added. ‘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.’

    Oscar nominated for 2005 movie Hustle & Flow

    Ex-Marvel star Howard was Oscar nominated for 2005 movie Hustle & Flow, where he played drug dealer and pimp DJay, who has dreams of becoming a hip-hop artist.

    Ahead of his specific claim against Combs, he had claimed during a wide-ranging interview that everyone who attended the music mogul’s notorious parties had ‘given up their manhood’ and ‘never recovered from it’.

    He also rallied against Hollywood and its actors’ current ‘fluidity’.

    ‘You shouldn’t have a greater desire than being a man. I believe that’s a big problem with a lot of the actors out there because they get fluid, and next thing you know, once you go fluid it’s gone,’ he said.

    ‘You don’t have any foundation to pull yourself back from – so maintain your man card, no matter what.’

    Combs’ trial is set for May 5 in Manhattan, and if found guilty, the mandatory minimum sentence he faces is 15 years, with a maximum sentence of life in prison.

    Combs is currently behind bars awaiting trial next month

    An estimated 60 civil lawsuits have also been filed against Combs, including a $10million (£7.85million) lawsuit after he allegedly dangling a woman from a 17th-floor balcony.

    One case, filed in January by an anonymous woman, claimed she was lured into his car after babysitting and assaulted by Combs.

    Another case was put forward by an unnamed man who claimed Combs sexually assaulted him at a hotel in New York in 2005, when he was aged just 10, during an ‘audition’.

    Many other accusations stem from his so-called ‘Freak-Off’ parties, with documents and videos reportedly seen by the New York Post said to show Combs held at least three of these raucous sex parties.

    He allegedly coerced multiple alleged victims into sex acts, known as ‘freak offs’, and is accused of ‘directing, masturbating during, and often electronically recording’ them during the events.

    He has been hit hit with multiple lawsuits alongside the criminal charges, which include sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution.

    Over 100 people are said to be planning to sue Combs after allegations from unnamed accusers who were as young as 9 at the time.

    The timeline of accusations against the rapper is extensive, with previous allegations and court cases stretching back to the 90s.

    Combs has denied all allegations against him.
