Kanye West made a surprise appearance at Sean “Diddy” Combs’ ongoing trial, leading to Tia Kemp publicly calling out celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Rick Ross, and Kevin Hart for not showing support.
Kanye West, also known as Ye, arrived at the Manhattan federal courthouse on June 13, 2025, to support Diddy, who is facing charges related to s*x trafficking and racketeering. West wore all white and confirmed to reporters that he was there for Diddy before leaving after about 40 minutes.
Tia Kemp, an entrepreneur and mother of Rick Ross’ child, took to social media to criticize celebrities who have not publicly backed Diddy. She specifically called out Jennifer Lopez, Yung Miami, DJ Khaled, French Montana, Kevin Hart, and Meek Mill, demanding they show up in court.
“So Kanye gonna be the only one to show up at the courthouse in support of his buddy. Since nobody don’t want to say it, I’ll say it. Alright, Khaled, get your big fat a* down to the courthouse, Ross get your big wide a** down to the fking courthouse. French Montana, get your yellow a down to the courthouse too. Kevin Hart, get your short a, funny a, down to the motherfking courthouse. Meek Mill, get your Philly a down there to the courthouse too.”*
Kemp also targeted women linked to Diddy in the past, including Jennifer Lopez and Yung Miami.
“And all them bhes he was fking, Yung Miami, I love you, but get your a** down to the motherfking courthouse too, City Girl. Who else, Saucy Santana, that’s your dawg too. Go down there to the motherfking courthouse, he needs your support y’all…Jennifer Lopez, get your a** down there too.”*
Diddy and Lopez dated in the late 1990s and were involved in a high-profile club shooting incident in 1999. Though Lopez’s charges were dropped, Diddy and rapper Shyne faced trial. Diddy was acquitted, while Shyne served 10 years.
The trial has seen testimonies from multiple witnesses, including Diddy’s ex-girlfriend “Jane,” who described alleged coercive situations involving male escorts. Another key witness, Cassie Ventura, detailed past abuse during her relationship with Diddy.
