Tyrese Gibson has denied appearing in any videos with Sean “Diddy” Combs.

In an Instagram Live stream this week, the singer-actor debunked rumors that he appeared in a compromising video with Diddy, 55. Gibson says the claims were spread by supporters of President-elect Donald Trump who were upset with his endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential race.

“There is no such thing as a Diddy tape, literally,” said Gibson, 45, on IG. “I wanna tell y'all that I've been to some of the most legendary parties, I got no regrets."

He continued to describe lavish events that took place from the Hamptons to Miami.

"If you're from L.A. and you've been to these parties, you would know that Diddy always had the most legendary parties that were always star-studded,” Gibson said.

“I got plenty of photos, proudly, like every other celebrity and star that went to his party,” Gibson added before suggesting some party attendees might have more to hide. “Anybody who's not on the internet talking about a Diddy party—you should be more concerned about them, allegedly, about what they did or what they on tape doing.”

He concluded, “There is no such thing allegedly as a Tyrese-Diddy tape. That is a bunch of Donald Trump n****s in my comments, trying to discourage me from speaking up and speaking out.”

GIbson endorsed Harris in multiple posts shared across his social media accounts. The comments section of his video sharing his feelings on the Vice President’s election loss featured comments from Trump supporters accusing him of being in an alleged incriminating video with the Bad Boy Records founder.

The “Love Transaction” singer publicly defended Diddy in March after his homes in Los Angeles and Miami were raided by authorities as part of an alleged sex trafficking investigation.

"I don’t condone nor do I support abuse, bullying sexual assault or anything that is currently being alleged but what I can’t do is turn the blinds on how much this mean to me and all of us, and what he has done for the community of music and culture," Gibson wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post.

"I’m praying for Diddy his kids, his family, his mother, and all of the alleged victims that’s in the middle of trying to simply have their voices to be heard," he added. "I love this brother he’s been nothing but kind and generous towards me and that’s the way I feel praying and praying for more of a better outcome of all of this is happening, God bless you Diddy if you ever need to call me and just need a listening here I’m right here bro."
