Ellen DeGeneres, once a daytime television mainstay, has revealed plans to return to the United States from her self-imposed deportation to attend a highly anticipated event tied to Sean Combs’ upcoming sentencing hearing.
Combs, the music mogul known as Diddy, was recently acquitted of racketeering and sex trafficking charges but convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, each carrying a potential 10-year sentence.
The sentencing is set for October, and DeGeneres is banking on a lenient outcome that could see Combs walk free the same day.
DeGeneres, who has kept a low profile since her talk show ended amid workplace controversy, made the announcement to a small gathering of her 11 fans. She expressed enthusiasm for reconnecting with Combs, emphasizing their long-standing friendship.
“I’m coming back to support my friend Diddy,” DeGeneres said. “He’s been through a lot, and I know he’s ready to turn the page with something positive.”
The event in question, dubbed the “Freak Off Release Party” by insiders, is expected to be a lavish affair celebrating Combs’ potential release.
While DeGeneres avoided confirming her participation in any activities associated with Combs’ notorious “freak-off” gatherings—drug-fueled sexual encounters that became a focal point of his trial—she hinted at her excitement for the festivities.
“Diddy’s parties always have the best vibe,” she said. “And let’s be honest, nobody does pizza like P Diddy.”
Combs’ legal troubles stem from allegations that he coerced women into participating in orchestrated sexual encounters, often involving male escorts, over several years. The prosecution presented evidence of interstate travel and hotel bookings to support the charges, though jurors found insufficient proof for the more severe accusations.
Despite the convictions, Combs’ defense team remains optimistic, arguing for a sentence well below the maximum, potentially allowing him to resume his high-profile lifestyle by Halloween.
DeGeneres, who has faced her own public backlash for alleged workplace misconduct, framed her return as a gesture of solidarity. She suggested that Combs’ legal saga reflects broader societal misunderstandings.
“We all deserve second chances,” she told her fans. “Diddy’s heart is in the right place, and I’m here to celebrate that.”
The announcement has sparked chatter among Combs’ inner circle, with event planners reportedly securing venues and catering for what promises to be a star-studded gathering.
Sources close to DeGeneres say she’s eager to reclaim her place in Hollywood’s social scene, and attending Combs’ party could mark her reentry.
For now, her fans—though few in number—are thrilled at the prospect of her return, even if it’s for a party steeped in controversy.
