Famous US actor Terrence Howard says embattled rapper Sean ‘Diddy‘ Combs, wanted him for “sex under the guise of acting coaching”.
In a recent interview on the PBD podcast, Howard recalled an incident that happened during a visit to Diddy’s place.
The Hollywood star revealed that the music executive “invited him for weeks” to meet up, claiming he wanted acting lessons.
Howard, 56, alleged that Combs stared at him when they eventually met. He claimed that his assistant later revealed that Diddy’s true intention was to “engage in a sexual encounter”.
Howard said he cut off all communications with Diddy because “a man’s card means everything”.
“Puffy invited me for weeks, asking me to come and telling me that I should be his acting coach. Asking me to teach him. I would go there and I am sitting around and asking him what material we want to work on, and he kept looking at me. And the next day, he said I should come and he wants to hear my music and I answered him,”

he said.
“And my assistant was like, he wants to hang out with you next week. And I was like for what? And he said ‘I think he is trying to f**k you’. I said oh ok. Now, there is no more communication. Now you know that you will be hands-off.
Some numbers of producers have come to make the approach, and you threaten to punch them in the mouth. You threaten to knock their heads off. You are looking at them like they are women.
When you ask real men about his real masculinity, you are going to get a real reaction. But it is different when a guy walks into a room.”
Howard expressed his views on homosexuality, saying he has lost business deals due to his refusal to compromise his values.
“I have lost businesses because I do not bend over. I do not compromise it. I do not play gay roles. I do not kiss a man. I do not do that shit because a man’s card means everything,”
he added.
“When you give up your manhood, I have never seen anyone recover from it. That was all the people that went to Puffy’s parties. There were a lot of men who did what they wanted to do for themselves.
“hose people did all those things thinking there were not going to be consequences for what they were doing. No matter what, never give up your man card. If you gave up your man card, you need therapy. That’s the thing that hurts them the most, and they end up doing drugs.”
Diddy was arrested on September 16 over sex trafficking and racketeering charges. He, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges. His trial is set to begin on May 5, 2025.
The rapper faces life in prison if convicted on the racketeering charge. He faces another statutory minimum of 15 years for the sex trafficking charge.
