What was Cole LaBrant thinking with this post?!
In a video posted on Friday to his Instagram and TikTok, the 28-year-old social media personality and his 11-year-old step-daughter Everleigh danced to the 1997 track I’ll Be Missing You by Diddy and Faith Evans. We are not kidding. Check it out (below):

Mind you, this clip came just days after the rapper was arrested on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution! WTF! Even if Cole somehow had no idea about the arrest at the time, he must have at least heard a little bit about the disturbing allegations against Puffy over the past year, right?! It is one of the biggest controversies out there! And yes, we know the track was used in a viral dance trend on social media. The LaBrant family has danced to it several times before. But in light of what happened last week, this was just NOT the best song choice at all! And the YouTube star got called out for the inappropriate timing online! One person on X (Twitter) wrote:
“I find it incredibly weird that Cole Labrant picked a Diddy song to dance to with his step daughter”
Someone on TikTok stitched the video and said:
“Ik this sposs to be a cutesy father daughter dance but was now the right time to use this song?”
@kommentarykeziah #duet with @Cole LaBrant #daddaughter im sure they couldve found sum else #diddy
No. No, it was not. And clearly, Cole heard the complaints loud and clear as the video has since been deleted from his accounts. It is safe to say that TikTok sound is now retired for the LaBrant family moving forward. Reactions to the backlash, Perezcious readers? Sound OFF in the comments!
