Charlamagne Tha God recently delved into the contentious history between his mentor Wendy Williams and Diddy, stretching back several decades. On Andrew Schulz’s podcast, Flagrant, Charlamagne disclosed that Diddy allegedly had Wendy Williams fired from Hot 97 in 1998 after she insinuated that Diddy was gay.
The incident occurred while Williams was employed at Hot 97. She reportedly possessed a photo of Diddy in an intimate situation with another man, which ultimately led to her termination. Charlamagne affirmed that Diddy played a crucial role in Williams’ dismissal from the station, primarily due to her assertion regarding his sexual orientation.

Gene Deal, Diddy’s former bodyguard, corroborated this account in a 2022 interview with The Art of Dialogue. Deal recounted that Diddy wielded substantial influence over New York radio stations and could effectively boycott them if they did not meet his demands. He claimed that Diddy threatened to withhold music from his friends and record label executives if Hot 97 did not fire Williams.
Recent rumors have been swirling about Diddy’s sexuality, with producer Lil Rod accusing him of sexual assault and allegations of sexual encounters with other celebrities. Comedian Luce Cannon also alleged that Diddy had sexual relations with actor Reginald VelJohnson, known for his role as Carl Winslow on the popular TV show Family Matters.
Diddy has denied the allegations, obviously.
