Russell Brand recalls ‘very intense’ Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs taking him on an ‘enforced holiday’
Russell Brand recalled Sean “Diddy” Combs taking him on an “enforced holiday” while working on their 2010 movie, “Get Him to the Greek.”
The controversial comedian got candid about taking a trip to Las Vegas with the now-disgraced rapper in a resurfaced interview with BlackTree TV from May 2010.
“Diddy is new to me, right?” Brand told the interviewer. “He looked after me, he took me on an enforced holiday to Vegas.”
The British actor, 49, continued, “He’s a very intense man because — I think he comes from nothing, and now he’s very, very powerful. People that do stuff like that, they’re intense.”
“Now, I like him, he’s very influential,” Brand explained, adding that Combs, 54, is difficult to say no to.
“Say that you don’t want to do something and Diddy does want you to do it, it’s really hard to not do that thing … you still do it because you think, ‘Ahh, don’t upset him.’ He’s an influential person.”
The “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” star admitted he worried about the pressure of being “very friendly” with Combs.
“He may ask you for loads of favors and you can’t say no to him. That’s my worry … pressure,” he said. “I don’t want to be nobody’s bitch, I work too hard in life, not even Diddy’s bitch.”
The “Rock of Ages” star’s comments have resurfaced after Combs was arrested and charged with prostitution, sex trafficking, fraud and racketeering.
Per an unsealed indictment, the hitmaker allegedly “coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires.”
He’s also accused of “creating a criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in … sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery and obstruction of justice.”
Combs’ arrest followed the raids of his Miami and LA mansions in March, during which feds uncovered 1,000 bottles of lubricant, AR-15s and drugs.
The “Making the Band” star, who pleaded not guilty to the charges, was denied bail.
Last week, the embattled music mogul was also placed on suicide watch at the Brooklyn, NY, detention center where he’s currently being held.
Brand, meanwhile, revealed in April that he was getting baptized as an “opportunity to leave the past behind” after being accused of sexual assault, rape and emotional abuse by multiple women last year.
