Resurfaced Video Shows Diddy Inviting 12-Year-Old Actress Daveigh Chase to Afterparty, Sparks Social Media Outrage
A resurfaced video from 2003 showing Sean "Diddy" Combs inviting a 12-year-old actress to an afterparty has sparked widespread criticism on social media, with many accusing the music mogul of inappropriate behavior. The video, originally from the MTV Movie Awards, was recently reshared by an account called "The Gworls Are Fighting," reigniting controversy surrounding Combs amid existing allegations against him. The video shows Combs, who was 33 at the time, asking young actress Daveigh Chase if she was “coming to the afterparty tonight” while standing on stage at the awards show. Also seen in the clip is actor Ashton Kutcher, 25 at the time, who smiles and laughs backstage with Fonzworth Bentley. Chase, who had just won the award for Best Villain for her role in *The Ring*, appears nervous as Kutcher reassures her, saying, “You’re doing great,” and Combs adds, “Take your time.” The seemingly innocent interaction has sparked outrage on social media, where users questioned Combs’ intentions and expressed concern for Chase’s well-being at the time. One commenter remarked, “Diddy was so serious about asking that lil girl to come to his party, look at how Ashton is looking at her—so sick!!!” Another user expressed frustration with the situation, writing, “Where are her parents? Lock them all up!! Like now!!! Where is this little girl, I pray that she is okay.” Some have gone further, accusing Combs of sexual misconduct based on the interaction. “This is sick, and anyone that tries to defend him is as sick as he is. Celebrities have defiled so many young children,” another commenter claimed. Many users called for a boycott of Combs’ music and other works, with one person adding, “We need to stop listening, stop buying their music, and stop watching their movies. They won’t get anywhere if we don’t empower them.” Amid the growing backlash, a spokesperson for Sean Combs issued a statement, denying any inappropriate behavior in the clip. “It’s disappointing to see the media and social media commentators twist moments into something they were not,” the representative said, defending the artist against the accusations. Daveigh Chase, the actress at the center of the controversy, has not commented on the resurfaced video or the allegations against Combs. She has largely stayed out of the public eye in recent years, with her last known activity on social media dating back to 2017. That same year, Chase was reportedly arrested for riding in a stolen car, according to the *Daily Mail*. While the resurfaced video has reignited public debate over Combs’ past actions, his team maintains that the moment is being unfairly mischaracterized, adding another layer to the ongoing conversation surrounding the music industry and celebrity culture.
