Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs was out at the Seventh Heaven strip club in Tokyo with an entourage of around 25 people at the height of his fame in the early 2000s, when he summoned topless dancer Rachel Kennedy to come back to his hotel for a party, she exclusively told The Post.
“He was asking for me and we started drinking and talking,” Kennedy, now 51, who now lives in Arizona, recalled.
“We hit it off, we’re talking and he invites me and my friends back to his hotel for a party. I took the girls with me and we went to Diddy’s hotel.”
However, as Kennedy recalls, Diddy – arrested this week on federal sex charges – was the only one present when she and two friends arrived at his room.
The now-disgraced hip hop mogul answered the door in a robe holding a bottle of Champagne.
“We all knew at that point it was going to turn out to be just a party of one,” Kennedy said.
Kennedy told The Post she was doing cocaine with her pals on the night they were lured to Diddy’s hotel room under false party pretences, but the rapper did not partake.
Little did she know at the time she was about to be introduced to what Diddy would later call “Freak Offs” – highly charged sexual performances – which have now landed him in legal trouble, charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.
“We were partying, doing cocaine. I never saw Diddy doing cocaine. He said he only smoked weed at the time,” Kennedy said.
Diddy, now 54, even bragged about bringing marijuana through the airport saying “he doesn’t need to hide it,” Kennedy said, noting she spotted marijuana in the hotel room.
At the time Diddy was at the peak of his celebrity, having had a worldwide mega-hit with I’ll Be Missing You in 1997 and Bad Boy For Life in 2001. He’d also been embroiled in a deadly 1999 nightclub shooting and was a hugely successful record label boss and entrepreneur as well as a rapper.
He was also famously dating one of the most beautiful women in the world – Jennifer Lopez.
Kennedy recalls how Combs bizarrely even “started showing us videos of his girlfriend [J. Lo’s] music videos. He was having us watch her music videos back to back to back.
“I said, ‘Oh, that’s really cool.’ It felt weird because we were in his hotel room and he’s showing us videos of his girlfriend,” Kennedy said.
“That happened for a while. He invited me and my friend to his bedroom with him. He didn’t like the other girl [so she stayed in the living room of the suite].
“We went back into his bedroom and started having oral sex. We were all on his bed. Right when we were done, he was still naked, and in comes his head of security,” Kennedy recalled.
The Post has reached out to Combs’ team for comment.
That’s when Kennedy recalled Diddy’s bodyguard allegedly became “forceful” with her and her friends – and Diddy did nothing to stop it.
“He [the bodyguard] starts trying to kick us out the door. We thought he was going to stomp our faces in,” Kennedy said. “He was forceful. We just wanted to get out as quickly as possible.
“[The bodyguard] came in with a force we knew he wasn’t just coming in to party with us.
“Maybe it was a set up between the two of them. This is [Diddy’s] private bedroom in his hotel room – who has that kind of access that they can barge in his hotel like that while he’s having relations with girls?” Kennedy said.
“He [Diddy] wouldn’t say a word to us, he was just quietly putting his clothes on while the bodyguard was trying to kick us out the door. It’s that gang mentality – if one can’t take care of business the other one got his back. It’s scary.”
The embattled hip-hop mogul is currently held in jail at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.
The indictment against Diddy alleges he “abused, threatened, and coerced women and others around him to fulfil his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct.”
He is also accused of abusing women and forcing them to engage in so-called “Freak Off” performances to fulfil his sexual desires, according to federal prosecutors. The Freak Offs were described in the indictment as elaborate sex performances that the disgraced hip hop mogul “arranged, directed, masturbated during, and often electronically recorded.”
In the 14-page bombshell indictment, Diddy is also accused of leading a criminal enterprise that enabled him to allegedly abuse, threaten and coerce women for more than a decade.
Diddy pleaded not guilty and was placed on suicide watch inside the Brooklyn jail on Friday where he awaits trial for the alleged sex crimes. A judge turned down his offer of $US50 million for bail.
The Post previously reported Combs’ alleged Freak Off parties were so wild they stunned one drug dealer who claims he saw household-name celebrities having sex with each other at his East Hampton mansion.
The dealer told The Post Diddy opened the door to his former Hamptons mansion while wearing nothing but a robe – just like when greeting Kennedy – and brought him through to a back bedroom to make the cocaine deal.
“Weird s**t was starting to happen. Celebrity guys f***ing each other.
“You’d see two people you would not think would be hooking up, rappers, that was what shocked me,” the dealer explained.
Allegations of Combs’ criminal indictment first came to light last November when the rapper’s ex-girlfriend, R&B singer Cassie Ventura, sued him for rape and physical abuse.
Ventura’s lawsuit shared details of the drug-fuelled “Freak Offs,” and her harrowing accounts that the rapper trafficked, raped and viciously beat her starting in 2005 and through 2018.
“After years in silence and darkness, I am finally ready to tell my story, and to speak up on behalf of myself and for the benefit of other women who face violence and abuse in their relationships,” Ventura, 37, said in a statement via her attorneys at the time.
Diddy denied any wrongdoing through his lawyers and settled the lawsuit within 24 hours of it being filed.
However, the floodgates were opened and further lawsuits have followed. The charges in each of which have also been denied by his legal team but none of them came to be heard in court before his arrest.
Kennedy – who is currently not working but previously ran a non-profit and founded Lucky Puppy Animal Rescue — told The Post Diddy did nothing to stop his “violent” bodyguard.
“We got away from him [the bodyguard] and we were able to run faster than him. It was probably 30 rooms we had to pass before we got to the elevator. We went downstairs – I called Diddy asking why is your friend being so violent with us? He hung up the phone on me,” Kennedy recalled.
“Our thought was we were going to a party. I can see how a party can turn into a one-on-one with P Diddy when you’re not expecting it,” Kennedy said.
“We never thought we were going to be in a room with him only,” Kennedy added.
