Jennifer Lopez remains silent amid questions about ex Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ legal troubles

Jennifer Lopez is notably avoiding questions about her ex-boyfriend Sean “Diddy” Combs as he faces serious legal troubles. The actress and singer, who dated Combs from 1999 to 2001, was recently approached twice by paparazzi with questions directed at her about Combs’ alleged crimes.

On October 26, after a screening of her new film Unstoppable in Los Angeles, Lopez was seen signing autographs when someone asked if she had any comments about Combs. She kept a stoic expression and quickly left with her bodyguard. During a similar encounter on October 19, Lopez was leaving LA hotspot Funke with her manager, Benny Medina, when photographers asked her again about the “P. Diddy situation.” She looked uncomfortable and quickly got into her car.

Lopez isn’t the only celebrity linked to Combs who has kept her distance. Comedian Kevin Hart also avoided questions about his connection to the rapper, who is facing multiple allegations, including sex trafficking and sexual assault. Moreover, ex-Playboy model Rachel Kennedy recently claimed The trial against Diddy podcast that she had to watch a music video of Lopez at one of Combs’ “Freak Off” parties in the early 2000s, describing the experience as “creepy.”

Combs, 54, pleaded not guilty to charges related to sex trafficking, extortion and coercion and is awaiting trial. Although Lopez has not been named in any lawsuits, attorney Tony Buzbee has indicated that “powerful people” connected to Combs could eventually be exposed as the case progresses.
