Video: Sean Diddy Combs' fans spray baby oil on each other in bizarre courthouse celebration

Music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs was denied bail and will remain in custody after he was found guilty of guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution related to his ex-partner Casandra Ventura and another woman referred to as "Jane". The controversial rapper was found guilty of sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

Sean "Diddy" Combs supporters celebrated the verdict with “Freak-Off” essential — baby oil. Ardent supporters of the embattled hip-hop mogul gathered outside Manhattan court on Wednesday to celebrate the conclusion of Combs' nearly two-month trial, according to footage shared on social media.

Diddy fans celebrate by spraying baby oil

Sean Diddy Combs' fans celebrated by spraying baby oil on one another in front of the Manhattan federal courthouse, the video shows. According to a video shared online, one of Combs’ supporters rejoiced by screaming and jumping up and down as a man poured a mini-sized bottle of the moisturizer all over her chest as people watched in awe. Some of Combs' fans expressed enthusiasm by covering themselves in baby oil.

Authorities in September last year seized at least 1,000 bottles of baby oil when they raided Diddy's mansion, US attorney Damian Williams revealed in a September 2024 press conference. Baby oil and lubricant items referenced throughout the sweeping federal sex-crimes case.

The baby oil was used in days-long freak offs which were described by the court papers as "elaborate and produced sex performances that Combs arranged, directed...and often electronically recorded." The Freak Offs could last for days and Combs and the victims would often receive IV fluids in the aftermath “to recover from the physical exertion and drug use,” the feds alleged. His employees used to facilitate these sessions by arranging travel, booking hotel rooms -- stocked with supplies of drugs, baby oil, lubricants and extra linen.

In one clip, shared by news outlet TMZ and X user CultureClips, a female fan wearing a blue wig could be heard chanting "I want the baby oil!" while she jumped around in excitement.

In another video, shared by X user Katherine Harris, a shirtless male fan screamed "More oil!" as he reacted to the verdict news with other spectators.

Legal analyst and attorney Laura Coates spoke about the incident on CNN, saying, “I kid you not, people are pouring baby oil on one another outside this courthouse.”

Baby oil produced as evidence in court

In May, prosecutors released photos showing that Combs’ hotel room was stocked with lube and baby oil on the day he was arrested. One of the photos featured big and mini-sized bottles of Johnson & Johnson baby oil in the sink, while another had bottles of Astroglide lubricant in the drawer.

Last month, photos from the FBI’s raids showed that Combs kept his massive supply of baby oil and lubricant in cabinets, drawers and a humidity-controlled case.

On Wednesday, Combs was acquitted of his more serious charges in his sex trafficking trial after the jurors deliberated for more than a day.

However, the “I’ll Be Missing You” emcee was found guilty of two counts of prostitution and each charge carried a maximum of 10 years in prison.

The judge will now decide whether to keep Combs in jail until his sentencing, which has not yet been set, or let him go home pending the hearing.
