Kevin Hart distances himself from Diddy after he’s asked about baby oil and ‘hosting’ parties for the disgraced music mogul
Kevin Hart appeared to distance himself from Diddy after he was asked about hosting parties with the disgraced music mogul in an exclusive new DailyMail.com video.
The comedian, 45, was questioned about his ties to the rapper, real name Sean Combs, while dining with his wife Eniko Hart, 40, at LAVO restaurant in West Hollywood last week.
Hart was seen arriving at the restaurant before being asked if he remembered seeing one of the now infamous bottles of baby oil found at Combs’ home while hosting “parties” for the Bad Boy founder.

But the actor quickly denied any involvement in the sordid parties, firing back: “When I hosted Diddy? You’re asking the wrong person the wrong question.’
When he asked if Combs would be safe in jail, Hart again tried to deflect.
“Wrong person, wrong question,” he replied before walking away with his wife and bodyguard.
The actor’s comments come after questionable videos and photos of Diddy partying with A-list stars recently resurfaced and went viral on social media following his arrest.
Combs, 54, is currently awaiting trial behind bars after being arrested in New York on September 16 on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.
A federal indictment alleges that Combs has abused, threatened and coerced victims since 2008 to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his behavior.

Hart’s comment comes as videos of the comedian and Diddy partying together in 2010 (pictured) have recently resurfaced and gone viral on social media.
Prosecutors also revealed that their raids on his homes in Los Angeles and Miami gathered evidence of the Hollywood star’s long-publicized, drug-fueled sex parties – which he called “freak offs” – during which “electronic devices that captured images and contain images’. videos of the freak-offs, with multiple victims.”
Unmarked AR-15s, ammunition and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and other lubricants were also recovered in the raid.
Among the images now circulating online is a clip showing Hart and Combs together at a party at the height of the music manager’s hedonistic heyday in 2010.

It also comes after news emerged earlier this month that Hart has abruptly closed Hart House, his vegan fast-food restaurant chain in Los Angeles, sparking online conspiracies that it could be linked to Diddy’s arrest.
Earlier this month, Hart House announced the closure of its four Southern California locations with a farewell message on Instagram that read: ‘Thank you. For now, a warm farewell as we start a new chapter.’
The chain launched in 2022 amid a wave of plant-based burger options in Los Angeles, planning to offer a traditional fast-food experience but without animal products at a good price.
Just in January, Hart House announced plans to expand by adding four to six additional locations and exploring markets in Washington, DC and Atlanta.
