Yahoo Lifestyle Lance Bass Confesses He 'Never Really Liked' Diddy
Lance Bass revealed on Wednesday night’s episode of “Watch What Happens Live” that he never really liked Diddy, aka Sean Combs, after overhearing a conversation between the rapper and Justin Timberlake.
The former *NSYNC member said he overheard Combs telling Timberlake that he should “drop these effers,” referring to the other members of *NSYNC, saying, “You need to go solo.”
“And I was like, I don’t like you anymore, Diddy,” Bass said on “Watch What Happens Live.” “Like, at my own show? What the hell? Never liked him.”
Bass said Combs opened for *NSYNC during the band’s 2002 Celebrity Tour and he overheard the conversation during a stop in Orlando.
Combs was indicted on sex trafficking and racketeering charges last week.
Since the arrest, videos of celebrities talking about him have resurfaced, including a video of Rosie O’Donnell in 2000 joking about the rapper going to jail. While promoting her stint to host the 2000 Grammys, O’Donnell filmed a segment with TLC.
“Lot of multiple nominees — multiple Grammy nominees — this year. Lauryn Hill’s got four, TLC’s got eight and Sean Combs 5 to 10,” O’Donnell cracked.
“Get it? Like, he’s going to jail?”
O’Donnell clarified to HuffPost that her jokes were about a 1999 club shooting in which a woman claimed she saw Combs with a gun before she was shot in the face.
Combs pleaded not guilty to the charges and was denied bail. Several women have alleged that the rapper was abusive, including his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, who filed a lawsuit, claiming Combs raped her and forced her to have sex with male sex workers.
