Diddy causes huge fuss with just posted photo of Jennifer Lopez
There are some interesting developments in Jennifer Lopez's world. While the superstar appears to be living with ex-fiancé Ben Affleck following her split from ex-fiancé Alex Rodriguez, another ex has just entered the chat.
Diddy (aka Sean Combs) and Lopez dated for two and a half years after meeting on the set of a music video for his debut album in September 1999, by Billboard. They were a pretty hot item in the late 90s and early 2000s. When Lopez and Sean "Puffy" Combs (as he was called back then) met, they were both 30 years old. In December 1999, they were both arrested for fleeing a Manhattan nightclub where a triple shooting took place. Charges against JLo were dropped, however, Diddy was not, and he was tried for bribery and possession of firearms, according to HipHopDX. He was acquitted of all charges in January 2001, according to ABC News.
This whole incident put a lot of pressure on their relationship, but it didn't break them. At the time, Diddy told “Access Hollywood” (via HipHopDX), “It was a tough year and I just want her to be happy. Diddy was J-Lo's date at the 2000 Grammy Awards when she wore that famous green Versace dress with the neckline cut so far, per Daily Mail. However, by Valentine's Day 2001, Lopez and Diddy were done.
So check out the Instagram Diddy that just posted and tell us what's going on.
Diddy's #TBT got everyone in a tizzy
Diddy posted a throwback photo of himself holding Lopez's hand to his Instagram account on May 27. In the photo, he wears gray sweatshirts from his Sean Jean line, and J-Lo dressed casually in a white sweater, jeans and flat sandals and carrying a stack of magazines. “#Tbt,” he captioned the post. Wow.
The download immediately plunged fans into a whirlwind trying to figure out… what does all of this mean? Is Diddy on the hunt for J-Lo's heart? The comments section of the photo is a who's who of hip hop, with Timbaland posting eye emojis, Keyshia Cole commenting on “Say ha, come home baby” and songwriter Ester Dean writing, “Don't m do not excite !!!! Michael Strahan also jumped in, posting the emoji with his hand on his face followed by two laughing emojis. Everyone participates in this one!
So what's the deal with the return photo? Did Diddy let Ben Affleck know he was there first? Other commentators have noted it, commenting, “Stirring the pot we see! And "Oh, this is messy. The truth is, Diddy has always praised Lopez. In 2014, he called his famous behind a "work of art" after the release of his video "Booty", by Page Six. And in 2019, when J-Lo posted a photo on Instagram that looked toned and fit, Diddy commented, "OMG", and Alex Rodriguez hit back with "Lucky me."
