In addition to the continuing accusations against Sean “Diddy” Combs, Terrence Howard has made a shocking new claim.
If it checks out, this would make him the first well-known celebrity to accuse Sean “Diddy” Combs of allegedly making a sexual gesture towards him during an encounter.
According to the actor, Diddy attempted to have sex with him while claiming to be assisting him with his acting.
This purported accusation was made public after Terrence Howard’s April 4 appearance on the “PBD” podcast.
The Empire star who was a guest on the platform described how Diddy attempted to approach him.
“Puffy invited me for weeks, asking me to come teach him how to, and wanted me to be his acting coach for a while,” Howard said of what led him to initially link with Diddy.
The actor claimed that when he finally met Combs, the hitmaker just sat there and stared at him until it started to bother him.
Howard says the alleged sexual assailant kept “looking at him,” leaving him perplexed by Diddy’s unsettling actions.
At one point, Diddy asked Howard to play some of the music he had recorded himself, and Howard complied.
Howard, who was upset by the encounter, says he told his assistant about it, and the assistant concluded that Diddy had made a discreet sexual approach to Howard.
“‘I think he’s trying to f**k you,’” the Hustle & Flow star remembered the assistant saying of the famed impresario.
Additionally, Howard said that his encounter with Diddy was comparable to his encounters with other Hollywood producers, some of whom he had to “knock their head off” or “threaten to punch” due to their belligerent conduct.
“When you approach a real man about his masculinity, you’re going to get a real reaction back,” the Empire star added on the podcast.
“I’ve lost businesses because I don’t bend over in that way. I don’t compromise. I don’t play gay roles. I don’t kiss a man. I don’t do that sh*t because the man card means everything.”
