Comedian Kevin Hart was not having it when a paparazzo cornered him with a bizarre question involving Sean “Diddy” Combs.
The exchange occurred as Hart was spotted heading to dinner with his wife, Eniko Hart, in West Hollywood. The celebrity couple had just arrived when Entertainment Tonight reporters posed an unexpected and awkward inquiry about a resurfaced video featuring the comedian and Diddy.
The paparazzo asked Hart, “Hey, Kev. When you hosted for Diddy, did you catch any baby oil?”
Kevin Hart, visibly unimpressed by the wild question, didn’t hesitate to respond. “You’re asking the wrong person the wrong question, man,” he shot back, unwilling to discuss the controversial mogul’s past.
The question referenced an old video from 2010, in which Hart hosted a party for Diddy to celebrate the release of his Last Train to Paris album. The event occurred in a New York City hotel room, and the festivities were streamed live for viewers online. Over the years, clips from the party have resurfaced, particularly in the wake of Diddy’s recent legal troubles.

The viral footage shows moments that left Hart in visibly awkward situations, such as Diddy asking the comedian to sit next to him on a bed and recounting an odd story about “wrestling” Usher over cereal.
The party also saw a startling incident where a woman’s hair caught fire while she lounged in a bathtub. Hart, sitting nearby, jumped in shock, asking: “Oh shit! Did the camera catch that?!”
While the party clips sparked online speculation, Hart didn’t engage with any of the innuendo, including the mention of baby oil, a detail connected to Diddy’s ongoing legal battle.
Diddy is currently facing serious criminal charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering, with accusations of coercing women into illicit activities and storing an excessive amount of baby oil for questionable purposes.
