Viral “Diddy Party Attendees” Jail List Debunked: No Official Document Released.
A viral tweet claiming to reveal an “official” list of celebrities and public figures who attended Sean “Diddy” Combs’ controversial parties has been debunked. The tweet, posted by X user @1mZerOCool on October 3, alleged that the individuals named on the list were all destined for jail following Diddy’s arrest on sex trafficking charges. While the post generated significant attention and sparked heated debates online, it has been confirmed that the document is entirely fake.
The list, which included 107 names, featured numerous high-profile celebrities and politicians, such as Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, Naomi Campbell, Serena Williams, Oprah Winfrey, and even public figures like Vice President Kamala Harris and British royals Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. The list gained almost three million views before being called out as false.
Why the List Is Fake
Shortly after the tweet began to circulate, X’s Community Notes feature flagged the post as a lie. Community Notes, a fact-checking tool used by the platform, confirmed that there had been no official release of any list of Diddy’s party attendees by law enforcement or credible news sources. The note read:
“This is a lie. There has been no ‘official’ Diddy list to drop, nor will anyone here ‘listed’ be going to jail. At most regarding a list, Tony Buzbee recently said some more powerful people could be revealed that are connected to this.”

The fabricated document was designed to appear authentic, with a mix of recognizable names from Hollywood, music, and politics. However, no law enforcement agency has released such a list, and no charges have been announced against the celebrities mentioned.
Who Is Tony Buzbee?
Tony Buzbee, a Houston-based lawyer representing many of the alleged victims in the case against Diddy, was mentioned in the Community Notes post. He is currently representing 120 individuals, including 60 males and 60 females, some of whom were reportedly as young as nine years old. Buzbee has confirmed that more high-profile individuals may be implicated in the case but has emphasized that his legal team is proceeding with caution.
In a public statement, Buzbee said, “The day will come when we will name names, other than Sean Combs, and there’s a lot of names. It’s a long list already, but because of the nature of this case, we are going to make damn sure that we’re right before we do that. But the names that we’re going to name … are names that will shock you.” Despite this assertion, no official list of attendees or other individuals involved has been revealed yet.

The Spread of Misinformation
The viral tweet underscores how quickly misinformation can spread, especially when it involves well-known figures and sensational claims. The fake list included a variety of stars, such as Justin Bieber, Drake, and Russell Simmons, falsely tying them to the scandal surrounding Diddy’s notorious “Freak Off” parties. These events, described in court documents, allegedly involved Diddy using his influence to coerce victims into inappropriate acts with male commercial sex workers.
As of now, Diddy remains in custody, awaiting trial on multiple charges, including racketeering and sex trafficking. However, the false list circulating online only serves to cloud the legal proceedings and sow confusion among the public.
The viral list of Diddy’s party attendees is a complete fabrication. It was not released by law enforcement, and there is no evidence to suggest that the individuals named in the document are under investigation or facing jail time. While Diddy’s case is ongoing and could potentially implicate others in the future, any claims about an official list at this stage are entirely unfounded. It’s important to rely on verified sources and refrain from spreading unconfirmed rumors, especially in sensitive legal matters like this one.
