A LOT of celebs attended Diddy‘s parties. Basically everyone who was anyone in the 2000s. But very few are talking about them now, for obvious reasons. One star who doesn’t mind spilling? Kendra Wilkinson!
The Girls Next Door alum went on the Kyle And Jackie O Radio Show this week to talk about the shocking allegations being levied against Diddy. The Bad Boy Records mogul has been charged with a host of offenses including sex trafficking and racketeering. He’s sitting in a Brooklyn jail cell right now on those charges — and supposedly refusing to eat for fear of being poisoned. All the while, shocking new lawsuits continue to be filed against him as more and more alleged victims of his rape, abuse, and trafficking come forward.
The charges stem mostly from parties Diddy threw which would end in what he called “freak offs” — what prosecutors say was actually exploitation of drugged models and sex workers who couldn’t consent to the sex they were having in front of everyone.
Kendra was a major partier back in the day. As you might expect, when the radio hosts pressed the former Playboy model about whether she ever attended Diddy’s parties, she confirmed that she did have experience with the rapper’s events:
“I remember just going to, like, one or two.”
Makes sense, obviously. Kendra’s been famous for two decades now via her Hugh Hefner-related connections. She had a hit TV show. No surprise she’d be on the invite list at some point.
But!!!
Hank Baskett‘s ex didn’t think what went on there was a big deal! Not to her, at least! Explaining that she never saw anything “really bad” occurring, Kendra shrugged it off:
“I had a great time in my youth. I didn’t really see anything. Like, I never saw anything really bad happening around me. Sex is sex, in my opinion.”
Wait, sorry — “sex is sex”?? So she’s saying she did see people having sex? Did she see what prosecutors are talking about? People having sex for the celebs’ amusement? And she just didn’t realize this was trafficking — thinking folks were just having a good time?? Whoa! If that’s true, she may be a witness the feds need to talk to…
Kendra may have been oblivious to some awful things… but she did clarify to the Australian radio hosts that she was not trying to dismiss anyone else’s accusations:
“I’m not saying that something bad didn’t happen. I’m saying that nothing bad ever happened to me.”
This kind of makes sense when you put it into the context of her career, right? When you’re in Hef’s orbit for years, seeing a bunch of people do the nasty in full view at a party isn’t that wild.
And in fact, that was exactly Kendra’s angle! She summed it up:
“Look, it’s like you’re going to the Playboy Mansion — you know there’s girls topless in the grotto. Don’t we already know that?”
We do! We certainly do! Of course, we’ve recently heard accusations the Playboy owner was drugging women, too..
Now, obviously, there are waaaaaaaay darker allegations swirling around Diddy’s “freak off” parties. In the indictment against the rapper, among the allegations listed are claims that sex workers were “abused, threatened and coerced” by Diddy in order to “fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his conduct.” So, those alleged acts are clearly WAY beyond what Kendra saw or experienced firsthand.
But still, it’s interesting to hear her take. And considering in the 2000s Playboy Mansion parties were also a big thing, it kind of makes sense stars wouldn’t be shocked by all the debauchery… and wouldn’t assume there was something more horrible going on!
Reactions, Perezcious readers??
