Credit to the host who didn't interrupt Foxx during a story about attending Diddy's parties. Looking back at Foxx's words, fans feel like it did not age well, particularly in light of the allegations made against Diddy in the recent year.

We'll take a look back at the interview and what fans had to say. In addition, we're going to take a closer look at some of the disturbing allegations made against Diddy.

Let's take a closer look.

Jamie Foxx Mocked Diddy For His Insane Budget When Throwing Parties

Five years ago, prior to the disturbing Diddy allegations, Jamie Foox opened up about his own experiences partying with Diddy. The assessment was very lighthearted, but Foxx did take aim at Diddy's ridiculous budget, which was typically over $1 million. It seems like Diddy didn't take kindly to Foxx's words.

Foxx tells Colbert, "I'd hang out and watch him throw parties. He told me, 'Hey Playboy, this party cost $1.5 million.' I said Puff, I'll throw you a party for $400. That will rival this party. And he got pissed at me. I said I respect you, but in LA, I'm known for throwing these cool parties."

Foxx continued that he invited Diddy into his "modest home," and that the artist was blown away by the insane guest list. Foxx would brag about his budget for the party, which included food from KFC.

The reveal is definitely worth watching back, as Foxx would go on to admit that the same party would lead to his first encounter with Kanye West, and the two would later collab together.

Jamie Foxx received a lot of praise for the interview. However, given his comments about Diddy, fans admitted the chat did not age well years later.

Fans Think Jamie Foxx's Interview With Stephen Colbert Didn't Age Well

All these years later, fans are still watching the interview back. With over 5.8 million views, fans had a lot to say. Among the recent comments included fans stating that the interview comments did not age well.

"These anecdotes are going to age like unpasteurized milk after these Diddy allegations."

Other fans just had high praise for Foxx's interview conduct and his ability to tell a story.

"Jamie Foxx is the definition of an entertainer!! He sings, acts, impersonates, and tells stories!! He’s awesome!!!"

"I know he's told a lot of these stories before, but they don't get old. Also, I completely admire his hustle. How he got hooked up with Diddy's crew because he convinced them to let him film them. The story about his name change and the comedy club. He's just a great storyteller."

Fans also credited Stephen Colbert for allowing his guests to talk and not interrupting during their stories.

A fan wrote, "Why is Colbert the best interviewer? Because he shuts up and let's the guest tell their story. He gets it; people WANT to hear about Jamie's party. They don't want to hear Colbert yacking and interrupting."

A great interview but one that is tainted because of the allegations against Diddy in recent years.

Allegations Against Diddy Continue To Pile Up

The timeline of Diddy's sexual assault allegations and lawsuits continues to fill up, with four different women stepping up. It all started in November of 2023 after ex Cassie made major claims, which included trafficking and domestic violence.

As expected, Diddy's team completely denied the claims.

Diddy's lawyer Ben Brafman said, "Mr. Combs vehemently denies these offensive and outrageous allegations. Ms. Ventura's demand of $30 million, under the threat of writing a damaging book about their relationship, was unequivocally rejected as blatant blackmail," Brafman said. "Despite withdrawing her initial threat, Ms. Ventura has now resorted to filing a lawsuit riddled with baseless and outrageous lies, aiming to tarnish Mr. Combs' reputation, and seeking a pay day."

Just one day after the lawsuit was filed, the two agreed to resolve things outside of court. The terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Combs' lawyer tells People, "Just so we’re clear, a decision to settle a lawsuit, especially in 2023, is in no way an admission of wrongdoing. Mr. Combs‘ decision to settle the lawsuit does not in any way undermine his flat-out denial of the claims. He is happy they got to a mutual settlement and wishes Ms. Ventura the best.”

Diddy did respond to all the allegations, calling them "sickening" and an attempt to ruin his legacy.
