Sean "Diddy" Combs has slammed reports he was
verbally abusive after being denied entry into a
Golden Globe Awards after-party on Monday night.
The hip-hop mogul arrived with his entourage at
the Sunset Tower Hotel at a party hosted by
members of Hollywood's Creative Artists Agency (CAA),
and according to one witness, was verbally
hostile towards hotel security when he was told
his name was not on the guest list.
Hotel owner Jeff Klein asked the star to leave,
which reportedly caused Combs to shout back,
"What are you going to do - call the police?
Just try it - I'll spend the rest of my life
hunting you down!" Combs and his entourage left
soon after the exchange.
Combs was allegedly banned from CAA parties
after an incident several years ago when he lost
his temper with an assistant to CAA co-chief
Bryan Lourd, who was hosting an Oscar party -
according to PageSix.com. But a CAA
representative has refuted the claims, saying,
"There is no ban on Puffy officially or
unofficially. He just wasn't invited."
Combs' spokesperson has denied the star was
verbally abusive, saying, "Sean never said those
things. He respects people's wishes and left. He
went to Prince's party instead.
