Comedian Nikki Glaser wasn’t afraid to take a swipe at Sean “Diddy” Combs on the Golden Globes.
The first-time Globes host shocked the celebrity audience at the Beverly Hilton hotel on Sunday night, with her opening monologue by bringing up the film Challengers — the love triangle sports drama that stars Zendaya, Josh O’Connor, and Mike Faist – and Diddy’s infamous “freak-off” sex parties.
“Challengers’ was more sexually charged than Diddy’s credit card,” Glaser said while acknowledging Zendaya in the room.
“I know Stanley Tucci’s freak-off doesn’t have the same ring to it. No baby oil this year, just lots of olive oil,” she added while the camera panned to actor and food show host Stanley Tucci laughing in the crowd.

Diddy is dealing with more than two dozen civil lawsuits alleging sexual abuse, including from some accusers who allege they were assaulted at the mogul’s infamous “freak-off” parties held after award shows, including the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards.
In one lawsuit, which was filed on Friday, Dec. 20, an Oklahoma woman named LaTroya Grayson alleged she was raped in 2006.
According to the complaint, Grayson’s sibling won a contest through local radio station KJAMZ. The winner received a trip for two to New York City to attend a Diddy “White Party.”
The accuser claimed she “began to feel sick” after consuming two drinks at the event. She passed out and later woke up at Saint Vincent’s Medical Center with no memory of how she got there.
She claimed her clothing was ripped, her underwear was missing, and the money she traveled with was stolen. According to the complaint, Grayson believed she was drugged and assaulted, although she had no recollection of who attacked her.
In another lawsuit, which was filed on Oct. 14, an anonymous John Doe accuser claimed he was allegedly assaulted by Diddy at one of his infamous “white parties” in 2007.
Per the suit, Doe was employed by a private security firm in 2007, when he was asked to work at one of the Bad Boy Records founder’s parties at his estate in East Hampton, New York. Doe said he was allegedly drugged and sodomized by the mogul at the party.
Glaser’s jokes didn’t go over well with another accuser’s lawyer. Attorney Ariel Mitchell, who represents Diddy accuser Ashley Parham wasn’t happy with the comedian.
Mitchell told TMZ she hopes Nikki “has never been sexually assaulted or mocked for it,” and added, “making light of this ugly situation is exactly why so many sexual assault victims never come forward and report their abuse.”
Diddy has denied all of the allegations in the lawsuits and says he never assaulted anyone.
He was arrested on Sept. 16 in New York City on federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Diddy is currently jailed in the Metropolitan Detention Center, after being denied bail by three different judges.
His trial is scheduled for May 5, 2025.
