Kevin Hart seemed unwilling to dive into the conversation around P Diddy
Comedian Kevin Hart was tight-lipped about his involvement with Diddy when he was stopped and quizzed by the paparazzi.
Diddy, once a force to be reckoned with in the music industry, now faces multiple sexual allegations against him, and was arrested last month.
The rapper, producer and record executive, whose real name is Sean Combs, was taken in by police while he was in Manhattan, New York, in September. He has since been charged with racketeering and sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion – all of which he has denied.
Earlier this week, it was reported that 120 individuals have come forward to accuse the producer of sexual misconduct.

As people on social media eagerly await further developments in the accusations levied against him, speculation has been rife regarding celebrities who have interacted with Diddy.
Videos of Kevin Hart have begun to circulate on Twitter when the comedian hosted one of Diddy’s parties back in 2010 at a London hotel.
The actor, who hasn’t been accused of any wrongdoing, was questioned by paparazzi about details of Diddy’s sinister ‘freak offs’.
While on his way to dinner at the LAVO restaurant in Los Angeles, Hart was asked whether he noticed anything unusual at the parties, such as baby oil.
Hart simply replied: “You asking the wrong person, the wrong question, man. It’s not a good question.”
The actor was then pressed on his views regarding whether Combs was safe in jail, and Hart reiterated, ‘Wrong person, wrong question’, and did not engage further.
The question regarding baby oil is in reference to a discovery Homeland Security made when they raided the disgraced music mogul’s home, as they reportedly found 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lube at his house.
The question on Diddy’s safety likely stems from the ongoing and unconfirmed rumors that Diddy is currently on suicide watch while in police custody.
Tony Buzbee, an attorney who is representing those who are making the claims, said at a press conference: “We will expose the enablers who enabled this conduct behind closed doors. We will pursue this matter no matter who the evidence implicates.

“The biggest secret in the entertainment industry, that really wasn’t a secret at all, has finally been revealed to the world. The wall of silence has now been broken.”
One of the plaintiffs’ attorneys, Andrew Van Arsdale, has since told the Washington Post that the allegations are from both men and women.
They reportedly range in age from nine to 38 at the time of the attacks, with the attorney stating the filings are ‘unprecedented in scope’.
