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.
Perry Farrell has released another public apology following an on-stage confrontation involving his bandmate Dave Navarro.
The Jane's Addiction frontman was involved in a physical altercation with guitarist Dave Navarro last year during a live performance, an incident that prompted the band to cancel their reunion tour and eventually led to their split.
“I'd like to address what happened on stage last year,” Perry, 66, said in a statement shared across both his personal Instagram account and Jane's Addiction’s official page. “I've reflected on it and know I didn't handle myself the way I should have. I apologize to our patrons and my bandmates for losing my temper and for disrupting the show.”
He went on to admit that he did not meet fan expectations and described himself as deeply remorseful toward everyone impacted by the incident.
“Jane's Addiction has been at the center of my life for decades. The band, the songs, the patrons, and the impact that we've had on music and culture mean more to me than any words I could ever possibly write down,” he shared.
“My aim has always been to give our audience the best possible show, something real, honest and positive. In Boston, we fell short of that, and I'm truly sorry to everyone who was impacted.”
Jane's Addiction also issued its own statement regarding the altercation, which ultimately led to the group’s remaining members filing a lawsuit against Perry alleging assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, and breach of contract.
“Today we are here to announce that we have come together one last time to resolve our differences, so that the legacy of Jane's Addiction will remain the work the four of us created together,” the band wrote, signaling that the group would not move forward with Perry. “We now look forward to the future as we embark on our separate musical and creative endeavors.”
