Earlier this month, Diddy's ex-girlfriend Gina Huynh wrote a letter to a judge in support of his request for bail. In it, she explained that she's known him for years. According to her, he “was not always perfect,” but “he was willing to acknowledge his mistakes and make better decisions in the future.”
“By the time our relationship ended, he embodied an energy of love, patience and gentleness that was markedly different from his past behavior. To my knowledge, he has not been violent for many years, and he has been committed to being a father first,” she added, per CNN. “I am writing because I do not view Mr. Combs as a danger to me or to the community.”
She was referred to as "victim 3" in the indictment against Diddy, and this was the first time she identified herself by name. She later took to threads with a simple message, writing, “FreeDiddy ?.” Huynh's decision to support her ex earned her some backlash from social media users, who sounded off in her replies.
“Is there anything you won’t do for money??" one user asked. “Girl— you need a mental evaluation!!!!" someone else insisted. It appears, however, that Huynh couldn't care less about what haters have to say. Today, she hopped on the platform once again to double down on her decision to back Diddy amid his legal battle.
"I’ve never been the type of person to follow crowds & trends. I’m not a follower," she claimed, as captured by The Shade Room. “You sheeps ? act like I can’t forgive a man I once loved… I’m not gonna kick him while he’s down cause yall want me to. B***H I DONT EVEN KNOW YOU… TF lol ? goofies… ima always have his back. ?”
Unfortunately for Diddy and his former boo, Judge Arun Subramanian denied his request for bail. "Even if the flight-or-danger requirement was satisfied, there are no 'exceptional reasons' warranting a departure from what Congress has required," he stated.
Zara Larsson has indicated that she may have cancelled her December 3 appearance at the Formula One Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The singer initially confirmed that she would not attend, before removing the comment and sharing a more detailed explanation of why the performance no longer feels right for her.
The Swedish star was scheduled to take the stage at Etihad Live on Yas Island during the Yasalam After-Race Concerts. Zara and Lewis Capaldi were due to launch the weekend’s entertainment. However, supporters encouraged her to reconsider the booking because of concerns surrounding the United Arab Emirates’ reported connections to Sudan’s Rapid Support Forces, a paramilitary organisation accused of committing atrocities during the nation’s civil conflict.
A fan commented: “Please read about what UAE is doing to Sudan then cancel your Abu Dhabi show!” Zara responded: “I will not be going to Abu Dhabi.” Fans later realised that both comments had been removed.
She then shared that she had been considering what it means for her, as an artist, to perform in particular countries.
The Midnight Sun singer explained: “I think about that a lot in my life as an artist… I wanna perform and spread joy and music for people in every country, because no single person is their government.
“I’ve met so many wonderful people from every corner of the world and I know this to be true in my heart. I love people, and I love my fans soooo much.”
Zara acknowledged that her original comment “maybe came off as an impulsive response,” but explained that she had given the booking serious thought. She now believes withdrawing is the decision that “aligns with me the most right now, for many different personal reasons beyond politics.”
She continued: “Maybe I’ll delete both comments and do a better statement soon. I hope to sing with you in the beautiful future!”
