I went to Diddy’s ‘scary’ parties as a young model – a lot of my friends from that time are dead now, but the choice I made saved my life

As a seasoned observer of the entertainment industry and someone who has witnessed its darker side, I can’t help but feel a mix of emotions reading about the allegations against Diddy. Having been a part of his inner circle myself, I can attest to the fact that the parties were indeed wild, filled with excess and innuendo. However, the revelation of non-consensual acts is appalling and utterly unacceptable.


A well-known figure from British television shared an account of her past, detailing how, as a young model residing in New York, she was a guest at Diddy’s infamous gatherings. She attributes a critical decision she made during that time with potentially saving her life.

In 2005, at the start of her twenties, Precious Muir relocated to New York City (often referred to as “The Big Apple”), where she was advised that the key to gaining recognition involved building connections through attending fancy gatherings frequented by the affluent and influential. This frequently meant socializing at extravagant events.

However, despite the seemingly enjoyable nature of these parties, there existed a sinister aspect. Young girls were given drinks spiked with drugs, coerced into sexual activities, and secretly recorded without their permission.

Hosted by Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, a renowned US rapper, were some of the wildest parties, though they have been marred by allegations that he kidnapped, drugged, and coerced women into sexual activities. Over 120 victims have so far come forward with similar claims against him.

As a seasoned broadcaster now in my forties, I find myself compelled to share my story, a tale that unfolds during the tumultuous era of the disgraced music mogul’s infamous soirees. My narrative sheds light on the pivotal decision that saved my life – the choice not to succumb to drugs. Many of my contemporaries in the industry, unfortunately, faced vastly different outcomes: quitting their careers, seeking rehabilitation, or worse still, losing their lives.

In conversation with TopMob, Precious expressed that many young women faced difficulties, some leaving modeling, seeking therapy, or entering rehabilitation centers. However, avoiding drug use was what ultimately saved her life.

I firmly think that my decision to abstain from drugs kept me away from a troubled path that many other girls found themselves on.

In 2018, Precious was the star of the initial season of reality show The Circle on Channel 4. Prior to this, she spent a decade residing in Manhattan, New York, where she worked as a model. During that period before social media’s prominence, she was advised to network with significant figures to secure lucrative deals.

To someone new to London, the idea of mingling with influential figures was, at first, quite thrilling.

As a dedicated follower, I learned from Precious that my agent strongly encouraged me to expand my connections and interact with others. He emphasized that by doing so, I’d open up possibilities for growth and potential opportunities.

‘I was encouraged to go to parties and events because it was important to meet the right people.

In a new nation, I found myself lacking the necessary connections to attend castings. Instead, many modeling opportunities in the past relied on building relationships, or networking.

In the past, I yearned to mingle with such outstanding individuals that attending events where they were present was not merely optional, it was integral to our profession. Unfortunately, we didn’t have the convenience of social media or direct messaging to brands back then, so going to parties became a crucial aspect of our work.

In my line of work, I’ve had the privilege of attending numerous high-profile events, and one that stands out is the brand event for Ciroc Vodka in 2007. During this event, an intriguing opportunity presented itself: a club promoter extended an invitation to join a party hosted by none other than Diddy (Sean Combs) in New York City. It was an unforgettable experience that I was honored to be part of.

He told her shuttle buses or blacked-out SUVs would transport her and fellow models from The Hamptons, where she was staying, to the nearby party, which was attended by a host of A-list celebrities.

Precious expressed: ‘I felt both anxious and thrilled, scarcely able to comprehend that I had been asked to mingle with such distinguished individuals. Up until then, I hadn’t really made a mark for myself; I was still building my reputation. At that point in time, I was quite young, uncertain about how else to advance my career.’

I’d been told by other models that these parties could be risky, as some individuals might attempt inappropriate advances. At the time, I was quite innocent and unaware.

Apart from other concerns, Precious showed signs of being careful. Prior to the Combs’ gathering, she tasted a laced beverage at another boisterous event in the industry, leaving one side of her face slightly numb.

She was also warned by a friend not to smoke any ‘weed’, as Diddy aids would allegedly ‘sprinkle stuff’ in it, plus the vodka shots were rumoured to be laced with drugs as one of the many ‘traps.’ 

She added: ‘Upon reaching the party, upon entering the house, there were waiters offering champagne.’

In designated areas, prominent personalities gathered, engaging in private conversations while lounging on daybeds and sofas. The entire setting was pristine, decorated in a crisp white theme, mirroring our own attire for the occasion.

In a short span at the party, someone might quickly propose drugs, such as “Would you like a line of cocaine?”, “Fancy some cocaine?”, or “How about smoking some weed?”.

‘Minutes into the party they want to kick it off in the right way.’

However, Precious declined all questionable items, confessing, “I faced a lot of criticism for this. Yet, it was about power and control; they aimed to discover who could be influenced effortlessly.

As a lifestyle guide, I’d like to express this thoughtfully: “Embarking on the path of drug use is often the initial step down a slippery slope. If you find yourself accepting such behavior, one must question where that tolerance might lead next in your life.

Precious stated, “It might seem unusual, but when such prominent celebrities extend offers, thoughts like, ‘He endorses this brand and is associated with that company’ often cross my mind. After all, they each have their unique selling points.

They referred to them as ‘The Professionals’, stating that they would aid me in my professional journey, and they intended to win you over with their charisma.

The model explained that rappers, in specific terms, exhibited a high level of ‘assertiveness.’ If staff noticed attendees snapping photos with their mobile devices, they would step in to handle the situation.

She stated: ‘In my viewpoint, the rappers were quite assertive, they were up-close-and-personal, featuring numerous hand movements, some even got close enough to take my phone and input their contact details into it.’

You were closely observed as you used your phone, apparently they discouraged photo-taking due to the confidential nature of the event. The venue had security present, and they aimed to limit the amount of information being disseminated since it was an extremely exclusive and private gathering.

At the parties, Diddy is clearly the dominant figure, orchestrating things like a seasoned pack leader. However, it should be noted that there were other influential individuals present as well.

She thinks that certain attendees came merely to exploit aspiring performers (young women with ambitions of being singers, dancers, or entertainers) for their own benefit.

One troubling factor that stood out to Precious regarding the events was the presence of children at the gathering, as they mingled among adults during the day, only for the atmosphere to shift towards a more adult-oriented, potentially dangerous, and secretive tone as night fell.

But the young attendees would still have been privy to nudity and sexual encounters.

She explained: ‘These were day parties that went into night, but I saw children there.

As a devoted fan, I often ponder over situations, and on one occasion, I found myself questioning: Why attend a lively daytime gathering in the Hamptons with a little one by your side? It seems an unusual choice, doesn’t it?

In this setting, you encounter numerous women, some partially clothed, swimming, and others engaging in various displays of affection while in the pool. The pool area seemed to be a place where many young women were attempting to captivate onlookers, often involving intimate acts such as kissing, touching, and groping one another. Additionally, there were performers dancing in diverse costumes around the area.

The environment here definitely isn’t suitable for kids. When I visited the restroom, I found evidence of adult activities such as discarded condom packaging and traces of what appeared to be cocaine residue near a snorting device.

‘The vibe was thick, filled with sexual tension, and explicit displays of intimacy were abundant – you could sense it and witness it. As I passed by a room, I could overhear couples engaging in intimate moments within.’

Indeed, the later into the party, the more extreme the behaviour.

Precious detailed the arrival of women resembling music video models, many boasting ample curves, along with adult film actresses.

She said: ‘Those types of girls would do anything, they were grinding and dancing and on platforms.

‘There was more drug taking, more drinking, more dancing and more everything.

I witnessed instances of females embracing, some even kissing, as well as males doing the same. Such occurrences indeed took place, and they were happening in close proximity to us, which we could clearly see.

According to Precious, she encountered Diddy, aged 54, during one of his social gatherings. This encounter took place at a time when Diddy was romantically involved with singer Cassie Ventura, who is now 38 years old. It’s important to note that an incident involving Diddy and Cassie occurred inside a Los Angeles hotel hallway in 2016, where Diddy was reportedly captured on camera committing assault.

The model expressed immediate worry about his companion, who was only 21 years old, because she appeared very youthful, similar to her age, and she sensed that their slim figures attracted unwanted attention from the guests.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I must share an intriguing encounter I had – I indeed crossed paths with Diddy at his lively soirees. And yes, on more than one occasion, I also met the captivating Cassie. Let me tell you, both of them are individuals who truly stand out in their unique ways.

It’s evident that he exudes self-assuredness, enjoys taking charge, and often guides his close circle with his decisions. I believe it’s safe to say no one has ever dared to refuse him.

I chose to maintain a distance since our encounters weren’t limited to just his Hamptons residence; we also crossed paths in Manhattan, as there were frequently sponsored events taking place.

‘Cassie and I weren’t far apart in age, which made me look at her and think how youthful and attractive she was, considering our close ages. Despite being her actual age, she carried a youthful appearance.’

As a devotee, I’ve always been wary of rappers approaching me and attempting to initiate such inappropriate situations. It was evident they harbored desires beyond friendly interaction, as I appeared so youthful. In their eyes, I resembled a child rather than the women with more mature figures.

Precious also confirmed cameras were scattered around the house, filming activity in each room.

Ever since whispers about Hollywood’s behind-the-scenes have been making the rounds, I can’t help but feel on edge, knowing that my idol, Diddy, is rumored to be holding onto tapes of intimate moments between him and A-list stars at his legendary parties. The thought of these private moments potentially being exposed in his upcoming trial sends shivers down my spine.

Precious mentioned: “I was cognizant that cameras were inside Diddy’s residence. Given the high price tag on such a property, it wasn’t surprising to anyone that cameras were installed all over.

Instead of revealing the identities of celebrities, I prefer not to, as they are fully conscious that they were present. At the time, I was a novice in this country and the entertainment industry, and I was mindful of the presence of cameras.

If someone has exploited another person, drugged them, or committed physical or sexual assault, there is a good chance that the incident will be caught on video. This ultimately depends on their moral compass (conscience) and inner self (soul).

Initially, I assumed everyone involved in such activities had given their agreement. However, it has since been revealed that this was not true.

If I’d realized back then what was happening beyond those doors, I wouldn’t have had any doubt about speaking up.

As the events prolonged, they grew increasingly explicit. Precious confessed that male attendees would attempt to persuade young models to join them in private below deck once all the vehicles transporting guests had left for home.

As time passed at Diddy’s parties, things started to deteriorate. People had been drinking throughout the day, which caused them to become less inhibited. This led to an increase in aggression, and the overall mood shifted.

At the party, some men were urging women to continue partying in the basement or other areas, and linger with them for a while. It was up to each individual to choose whether to comply with this suggestion.

The situation was awkward since you felt obligated due to being their guest, as if you were expected to provide entertainment. You didn’t want to anger or disappoint them because they seemed capable of negatively impacting your professional life if you didn’t comply with their requests.

In a foreign environment, a young girl found herself under immense stress. I felt exposed and defenseless, much like small rabbits surrounded by predators.

She commented: ‘You seemed to have a sense of duty to comply with their requests. It wasn’t a pleasant experience. Despite feeling honored to be present, I was terrified when things began to take a sinister turn. I’m not sure how I managed to persevere. You wouldn’t want to find yourself in a position where you might be shunned.’

At present, Diddy is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn while his trial is ongoing. If convicted, he may receive a significant jail term. However, he maintains his innocence regarding the allegations against him.

Ben Ofoedu’s partner, Precious, acknowledges that she didn’t find it unexpected when she learned about the rapper’s arrest, as he is involved with Phats & Small. (52 years old)

She expressed her feelings as follows: ‘Upon hearing the rumors, I feel utterly appalled. I find it hard to fathom why someone would aspire to such behavior, but given my past experiences at Diddy’s events, I am not in the least bit shocked by these accusations, as the situation was precariously close even then.’

‘It was a very adult atmosphere. It could go anywhere.’
