Out of all the voices speaking out against Sean “Diddy” Combs in recent years, Gene Deal seems to be the loudest and most unwavering. As Diddy’s former bodyguard, Deal has seen and experienced a lot with Combs, and now that the disgraced Hip-Hop mogul is facing serious prison time over racketeering and sex crimes, Deal has yet another warning for some of Hollywood’s beloved celebrities.

In a recent interview with “The Art Of Dialogue” podcast, Deal said that Diddy may not hesitate to throw his celebrity friends under the bus if it means he’ll get a lighter sentence. “If the federal government wanted someone more than they wanted Diddy... he’s able to give that information to them,” Deal said. “He gon’ be as truthful as possible.”
Over the years, Diddy has been open about his close relationships with some of Hollywood’s most prominent figures, but now that the Diddy ship is rapidly sinking, Deal said people need to watch their backs.
This means celebrities like actor Ashton Kutcher, who has public ties to Puff Daddy and his family. “Ashton Kutcher and him were real tight,” Deal revealed in the interview before adding that he, Diddy, and Kutcher once attended a basketball game alongside Jay-Z.
“Ashton Kutcher has a right to be kind of alarmed if he was doing things with Diddy,” Deal said. The former security guard also noted that Diddy has most of his life on tape. “Wherever Diddy went, his tape recorders went,” Deal continued. “He was video taping everything.”
Like many celebrities, Kutcher attended Diddy’s infamous parties, where much of the alleged criminal activity took place, but does mean Kutcher is directly involved?
Rumors surrounding the “That ‘70s Show” actor’s possible involvement with Diddy’s nefarious activities began shortly after the Bad Boy Records CEO was arrested in September.
But despite their decades-long friendship, there’s been absolutely no evidence he’s done anything wrong but attend parties and that’s not against the law. And according to TMZ, Kutcher is NOT connected to the case.
One source close to Kutcher even told TMZ, “This narrative has got to stop. Ashton has nothing to do with this.” The source continued saying Kutcher had “zero involvement. Zero knowledge of [Diddy’s] activities.”
Combs and Kutcher began their close friendship after an episode of MTV’s “Punk’d.” In an interview of the duo on “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” Combs even referred to him and Kutcher’s friendship as “the new Rat Pack.”
Kutcher has not been named in any lawsuits or the federal indictment against Diddy. Since the mogul’s arrest, over 100 alleged victims have come out against Combs not Kutcher or any other A-lister so far. So maybe Diddy’s former bodyguards should stop with all these theories.
