SIPPING champagne on the balcony of his mansion, P Diddy told guests at his White Party to “put the kids away” as it was about to be transformed into a very adult event.

For more than a decade, the billionaire rapper used to invite a who’s who of showbiz to his legendary bashes.

They were held in either the Hamptons, the upmarket resort area on the US East Coast, Saint-Tropez in the South of France, or equally well-to-do Beverly Hills.

The big names enjoying Diddy’s hospitality included Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, Paris Hilton, designer Donna Karan and Ivanka Trump.

Topless young women splashed in his outdoor pool and the music mogul would pour bubbly on them.

But with 54-year-old Diddy — whose real name is Sean Combs — now behind bars facing charges of s3x trafficking by force and racketeering, far more sordid details of the White Parties are leaking out.

A former go-go dancer called Adria Sheri English claims she was drugged and forced to have s3x at the events.

Music insider Tom Swoope alleges that Diddy offered one 18-year-old man a record deal if he would perform a s3x act on a bodyguard.

And a drug dealer said that he wouldn’t touch the booze being handed round because he believed it was spiked with illegal substances.

Boxer shorts

These most d3bauch3d activities are said to have taken place after 2am when most guests had gone home.

Diddy has pleaded not guilty to all the charges against him and denied allegations made by former associates that he forced them to have s3x.

But it was clear that the powerful businessman knew from the start that his White Parties — which had a strict all-white dress code — would land him in hot water.

They gonna be shutting them down. They gonna probably be arresting me — doing all types of crazy things just because we want to have a good time.

He said in 1999, the year after the first one was held: “You’re going to hear about my parties.

“They gonna be shutting them down. They gonna probably be arresting me — doing all types of crazy things just because we want to have a good time.”

When Diddy held his first White Party at his all-white home in the Hamptons, he was the toast of the music industry, having won Best Rap Album at 1998’s Grammy Awards.

More than 1,000 people turned up to the party, including Paris Hilton, who said: “It was iconic and everyone was there.”

But no matter how famous you were, if you were wearing anything less than pure white, such as cream shoes, you would be barred.

The following year the invitations even went out on white boxer shorts.

During that event Diddy’s then girlfriend Jennifer Lopez was spotted drawing the curtains after sneaking into Diddy’s bedroom.

By December 1999 she was drawn into his circle of danger when he was accused of firing a gun at a New York nightclub, and a weapon was later found in the vehicle that J-Lo was travelling in.

But that did nothing to stop her being photographed at a Fourth of July party in the Hamptons in 2000 in a giant bed shared by Diddy, singer Aaliyah and fellow rapper Jay-Z.

Diddy was acquitted of firearms charges at a trial in 2001 — and the show went on.

His party guests knew they were sure to rub shoulders with music industry insiders if they accepted his invitation.

They would be served drinks by beautiful women wearing angel wings and little else. But some women were not impressed by the s3xist behaviour. Amy DuBois Barnett, who attended a White Party as editor in chief of Honey magazine, told the LA Times earlier this year: “I’d never been around a crowd so universally beautiful and dressed to the nines — it was nearly impossible to tell which fabulous woman was a model and which was an executive.

“Though my boss introduced me as the new editor-in-chief of Honey, almost every man I spoke with openly ogled me, asked if I ever thought about modelling, or offered to put me in their next video.

“I was grateful when rain cut the party short.”

The newly resurfaced footage of Diddy standing on the balcony at one of the White Parties offers a glimpse of the kind of behaviour he expected guests to indulge in.

To cheers from the onlookers, he says: “We fed you all, we gave you drinks, now it’s time to enjoy life. This is a celebration of life. This is the real White Party.

“Kids have an hour left. This thing turns into something that when you get older, this is something you’ll all want to come to.”

Later in the evening and into the early hours of the morning, some of the darkest chapters in Diddy’s life are said to have unfolded.

Secret cameras

At parties in 2004 and 2005 dancer Adria was expected to entertain guests, but got far more than she bargained for.

According to a lawsuit she filed earlier this year, “the things that we were forced to do haunt me to this day”.

Her lawyer Ariel Mitchell-Kidd said: “They began to supply her with alcohol, which she later discovered to be laced with drugs because of its effect on her.” With bodyguards in front of the bedroom doors, Adria was allegedly directed to have s3x with one person after another.

One drug dealer who attended a White Party in the Hamptons claimed that ketamine and GHB were being consumed.

He says he witnessed well-known celebrities having s3x in secret rooms away from the main events.

The unnamed source told The New York Post: “I got the f*** out of there.”

It was when Adria attended another of Diddy’s d3bauch3d all-nighters in Miami, Florida, in 2008 that she decided she had had enough.

At that event Ariel Mitchell-Kidd alleges there were secret cameras in all the bedrooms.

According to the lawsuit: “Defendant Combs used his power and influence to threaten and intimidate Plaintiff to continue participating in Defendant Combs’ corrupt s3x and drug trafficking organisation.”

When Adria complained, she was reportedly removed by the security team.

She now intends to give evidence against Diddy if the cases against him go to trial.

She said: “I anticipate testifying in New York’s federal court to help ensure Diddy is imprisoned for life.”

I thought it was time to share the s3xiness and glamour of the White Party with all of my friends and family in LA.

The last White Party was held on the Fourth of July holiday in Beverly Hills in 2009, with Ashton Kutcher and Russell Brand in attendance.

Diddy said at the time: “I thought it was time to share the s3xiness and glamour of the White Party with all of my friends and family in LA.” A source close to Leonardo DiCaprio, who attended the first bash in 1998 without any knowledge of what it would be like, claimed he “has absolutely nothing to do with any of this”.

According to various sources, Diddy did not curb his behaviour when the White Parties ended.

If their lawsuits are to be believed, the rapper became increasingly twisted.

Video footage

Last November his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura claimed she had been forced to have s3x with male prostitutes for days at a time in horrific ordeals known as “freak-offs” while Diddy watched.

The pair settled out of court, but in May this year video footage from 2016 was leaked which showed him kicking Cassie in the head in a hotel corridor.

Afterwards, father-of-seven Diddy posted an apology on Instagram, saying he was “disgusted” by his attack on his ex.

Earlier this month he appeared in a New York court accused of conducting those “freak-offs”.

In the official documents he was alleged to have “abused, threatened, and coerced women and others around him to fulfil his s3xual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct”.

There is no suggestion that any of the celebrities who attended Diddy’s White Parties took part in any “freak-offs” or any other form of illegal activity.

The rapper’s lawyer Marc Agnifilo said outside court: “He didn’t do these things.”
