Diddy Should Have Kept That Weak-Ass Apology

Sean “Diddy” Combs is as dangerous as he is unserious.

On Dec. 6, 2023, he posted a note to Instagram that said: “Enough is enough.”

“I was fucked up — I hit rock bottom — but I make no excuses. My behavior on that video is inexcusable.”

He added, “I was disgusted then when I did it. I’m disgusted now. I went, and I sought out professional help. I got into going to therapy going to rehab. I had to ask God for his mercy and grace. I’m so sorry. But I’m committed to be a better man each and every day. I’m not asking for forgiveness. I’m truly sorry.”
