As Sean “Diddy” Combs continues to battle serious sex trafficking and racketeering charges in court, an unexpected celebrity anecdote from the past has suddenly come back to haunt him—this time involving a Met Gala, a Kardashian, and some truly wild behavior in a bathroom.
The explosive claim? That Diddy was seen “dry humping” a Kardashian in the women’s restroom during fashion’s most high-profile night.
Yep, that’s what journalist Megyn Kelly says she witnessed firsthand.
Megyn Kelly Recalls Eye-Opening Met Gala Moment
While speaking on the podcast The Nerve with Maureen Callahan, Kelly didn’t hold back as she described what she allegedly saw at the event.
“I went to the Met Gala… two years, Maureen,” she began.
“The thing I remember is P. Diddy, in the restroom—the women’s restroom, that’s why I was there—dry humping a Kardashian.”
She didn’t specify which Kardashian, but did add that there were “multiple Kardashians” present, along with “some other lame supermodel—not the ones we grew up with, but those lame influencer types.”
“No one was using the bathroom,” Kelly said.
“They were smoking and dry humping… and that was P. Diddy.”
The Kardashian Connection at the Met Gala
Kelly attended the Met Gala in both 2016 and 2017—years when the Kardashian-Jenner crew were very much part of the scene.
In fact, the 2017 gala included that now-iconic bathroom selfie featuring Kim Kardashian, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, along with Diddy, A$AP Rocky, and Willow Smith.
It’s unclear which event the incident allegedly took place at, and so far, reps for the Kardashians and Diddy haven’t commented on the resurfaced claim.
Diddy Faces Mounting Legal Trouble in Court
The timing of this story hitting the headlines couldn’t be more dramatic.
Diddy is currently on trial in a federal court facing serious charges, including sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, racketeering conspiracy, and transporting individuals for prostitution.
On Monday, a witness took the stand, and on Tuesday, his former longtime partner Cassie testified against him, painting a disturbing picture of their relationship.
Cassie’s Emotional Testimony Reveals Years of Control
Cassie—whose full name is Casandra Ventura—told the court she didn’t feel like she could ever say no to Diddy. “Sean controlled a lot of my life,” she said.
“Whether it was my career, the way I dressed—everything. Sean is a really polarizing person, also very charming.”
Her testimony marks a major development in the case, especially considering she previously filed a civil lawsuit against him in late 2023 that was settled almost immediately.
A Pattern of Abuse and Power Allegations Emerges
Following that lawsuit, things escalated. Authorities raided multiple properties owned by Combs in March 2024.
By September, he was arrested and taken into custody.
Since then, he’s been denied bail several times and is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.
Federal prosecutors allege that Diddy used threats, manipulation, and physical violence to silence accusers.
One of the more disturbing claims is that he forced women into so-called “Freak Offs”—group sex acts they say they were coerced into.
Attempts at Bail Denied Over Fears of Interference
Since his arrest on September 16, 2024, Diddy has tried three times to secure bail, but each attempt has been denied.
The court has made it clear: they’re concerned he might flee or interfere with witnesses if released.
Meanwhile, the court proceedings continue—and as they do, more stories from Diddy’s past, like Kelly’s Met Gala memory, keep surfacing.
High-Profile Fallout and Public Scrutiny
The court of public opinion hasn’t exactly been quiet either.
In May, just days before his trial resumed, video footage of Diddy allegedly assaulting Cassie aired on CNN, reigniting media attention and adding more fuel to an already high-profile legal firestorm.
Diddy Remains in Custody as Trial Unfolds
As of now, the 55-year-old music mogul remains behind bars, with federal prosecutors continuing to build their case against him.
The charges he’s facing are severe and the testimony so far paints a troubling picture of abuse, control, and manipulation spanning years.
