Ex Diddy Employee Details Toxic Work Environment


The hits keep on coming for Bad Boy Entertainment CEO Sean 'Diddy' Combs. 

Last week Rolling Stone Magazine published their shocking Bad Boy exposé, [click here if you missed that], and now another media outlet has been contacted by former Diddy employees...

Former employees of Combs’ lifestyle brand Sean John and Blue Flame, his now-shuttered advertising agency, recalled “erratic” behavior while in Combs’ employ, including instances where he grabbed, berated, and threatened them. These former staffers spoke to The Daily Beast under condition of anonymity out of fear of retribution.
One female Sean John ex-employee shared a harrowing account about a time Combs grabbed her face following a disagreement about a creative decision. “He didn’t like that I wasn’t agreeing with him, and he wasn’t interested in hearing my point of view,” the former employee recalled.
Instead, Combs allegedly began to yell and compared himself to a renowned fashion designer. “When you speak to me, you should imagine that you’re talking to Karl Lagerfeld,” she recalled Combs telling her. “Anything I say, assume that it’s coming from Karl Lagerfeld.”
“At that point, I didn’t have a response to that, and he reaches out and he grabs my face,” she added. “He puts one hand on both sides of my cheeks and says ‘Stick out your tongue,’ and then he squeezes my face harder and yells at me to stick out my tongue, forces his hands on my face.”
She recounted how Combs then told her he “just wanted to see” if her tongue was bleeding, because she was clearly biting it. “I started looking for a job immediately after that moment,” she said. “I just wasn’t interested in being there to deal with that kind of treatment. You have to really idolize him and see him as an icon. I didn’t. I was just there to do my job.”

Malignant narcissist behavior. I wish a nucca would man handle me that way. He would have caught a quick kick to da nutz. Diddy is a small boned man. Surely someone could have put hands on him by now. He kept being a physically abusive jerk cuz no one checked him.

Shawn did alllll that behind the scene to get fans to worship him arguementively on the internet without a doubt speaking about his success on blog sites commentary. Then used Cassie by working her up as a trophy from his success. Just SICK!

Hell, we all have toxic work environments. I work in one now.

Some industry people put up with a lot for money and/or access to the celebrity lifestyle. Some can handle it, some can't. At least this one was smart enough to move on. I have a lot of respect for people who value their dignity over dollars or fame. And for the record, Cassie was no trophy and did nothing for his image or career. He was already a gigantic, well known a-hole before she came on the scene. If anybody gets credit it would be JHo because she's the one who propelled him to another level.

Whenever I think of JLo and Diddy I'm reminded of Kerry Washington playing the JLo role in the Shyne gun situation on Law & Order.

Great! Keep coming forward with your workplace abuse.
We've seen how he treats people whom he deems as beneath him!

He must've known who he could get away with man handling. I would have gone straight to the hospital. Pressed charges and sued that very day. I know my rights as a lowly employee.

I might have even called 911. The CEO grabbed my face? Jackpot.

Karl Lagerfeld is dead, and so will he, when all the charges go to trial, with an outcome of guilty. The boi's in cell block "D" are warming up his position as we speak. Do you still have your tonsils DoDo Diddy?

Not hard to believe. I’ll never forget him making the band walk to Bklyn for some cheesecake, or how disrespectful he was to Laurieann Gibson.
