LeBron James was humiliated while attending an NFL game on Sunday when he was confronted by a fan who heckled him about his alleged ties to the disgraced music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs.
James Confronted By Heckler
James tried to shrug off the Los Angeles Lakers’ demoralizing loss to the Denver Nuggets by attending Sunday’s NFL game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Philadelphia Eagles at SoFi Stadium. Unfortunately for James and other Rams fans, the Eagles dominated and won by a score of 37-20.
James’ worst moment of the day, however, came when a heckler confronted him about Diddy, who was arrested two months ago on sex trafficking charges.
“Bron! ‘Bron! We know you was at them Diddy parties! We know you were there,” the heckler can be seen yelling at James in video that has since gone viral. The heckler appeared to be referring to Diddy’s infamous parties that some people were allegedly forced to participate in against their will.
James, 39, looks visibly uncomfortable as he does his best to ignore the loud heckler.

Diddy’s Arrest
Back in March, federal agents raided Diddy’s mansions in Miami and Los Angeles. They seized hundreds of videos and tons of paraphernalia, including 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lube. The U.S. Attorney’s Office then claimed that Diddy had spent years hosting the infamous parties that James’ heckler was seemingly referring to.
Diddy, 55, was arrested on September 16 and charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The rapper has pled not guilty to all of the charges against him.
Due to the seriousness of the charges against Diddy, he has been remanded without bail to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where he remains to this day.
Diddy has requested bail multiple times since then, but two different judges have deemed him to pose too much of a flight risk. They’ve ruled that he must stay behind bars until his trial, which is set to begin in May 5. If convicted, Diddy is facing fifteen years to life in prison.

James’ Disturbing Diddy Video
Soon after Diddy’s arrest, disturbing footage surfaced of James joining Diddy on an Instagram live chat four years ago.
“Hey, everybody know, ain’t no party like a Diddy party!” James chillingly says in the video.
“Yeah that’s what’s up!” Diddy responds.
Since then, rumors have swirled about James’ potential connections to Diddy and his alleged crimes. James himself has yet to speak out on Diddy at all since his arrest at the time of this writing.
After decades of success in the entertainment world, Diddy has tons of famous friends. This means that James is far from the only celebrity who is undoubtedly sweating over past ties to Diddy. Indeed, even if James had no involvement in Diddy’s alleged crimes, the above video is surely going to be haunting James for life.
Lakers fans will be hoping that James can shrug this off, as the team is currently on a three-game losing streak. Only time will tell if James is actually able to do that!
