Diddy’s interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live from February 2011, during which he referred to Justin Bieber as “a little brother,” is resurfacing on social media. It comes after authorities arrested the Bad Boy mogul in New York City, last month, on charges of alleged sex trafficking and racketeering.
“To a lot of us, he’s like a little brother,” Diddy said at the time. “He’s not afraid to call and ask for advice. He’s somebody that, in the industry wise, the record industry is a strong family and he’s somebody that we definitely have our arms around him. We wanna protect him. Because he’s such genuinely a nice person. Besides his talent, he’s one of the greatest kids that you could ever know.”

He also discussed the idea of buying Bieber a car. “He had the Lamborghini for a day or two and he had access to the house,” Diddy said. “He knows better than to be talking about the things that he does with big brother Puff on national television. Some things, everything ain’t for everybody.” When the TikTok account, WhatsTrending, shared the video on Friday, users in the comments section condemned Diddy and Bieber’s relationship. “Diddy took his innocence away. His smile. Where was his mother?” one user wrote. Another came to their defense: “Lord we just gonna take everything out of context and make it perverted.”
Diddy Discusses Justin Bieber In Resurfaced Clip
Diddy has already pleaded not guilty to the alleged charges and plans to argue his case in court. He currently remains behind bars in Brooklyn while awaiting trial. Bieber has yet to comment on his arrest. Check out the resurfaced clip from Jimmy Kimmel Live below. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy on HotNewHipHop.

The feud between Donald Trump and late-night talk-show host Jimmy Kimmel has been going on for almost nine years now. The Kimmel-Trump beef has been slow-cooking for years and has caught on fire once or twice, too. So far this year, the two have fired a couple of shots back and forth in their long-standing volley. Kimmel hosted the Oscars on March 10 and took the opportunity to call out Trump in his monologue. Trump has stewed over the comments for some time, attacking Kimmel on multiple occasions. Over a month later, Kimmel worked some fiery Trump “hush money” trial jabs into his April 16 talk-show monologue. These, of course, only continue to rub Trump the wrong way. Let’s take a look at key points along the Kimmel-Trump feud timeline now.
Trump Cancels Jimmy Kimmel Live Appearance In October 2015 at Last Minute
Every big beef has its humble beginnings. The Kimmel-Trump beef began quietly enough in late October of 2015. Trump was slated for an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live amid a whirlwind of other political appearances on the show. However, he canceled at the last minute, citing an important political event that popped up. Kimmel, in a segment on the Howard Stern Show, thrust a little jab at Trump when he reported that he didn’t “know what happened…we’re delighted, needless to say.”
Kimmel continued mysteriously, claiming that he would not be “interviewing [Trump]. It will be in studio, it’ll be live, and it’ll all make perfect sense when you see it.” During his monologue on the show Trump canceled, Kimme shot some more little pokes at the real estate mogul: “We’re gonna give everyone in the audience a basketball dipped in cologne so you can fully experience what it would have been like had Donald Trump been here.”
Kimmel & Trump In December 2015: Winners Aren’t Losers
The world found out what Kimmel had in store when Trump finally appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live two months later. The presidential nominee appeared more subdued than usual as he sat in the chair beside Kimmel’s desk. After some playful banter back and forth, Kimmel revealed a mock children’s book he “ghostwrote” titled Winners Aren’t Losers. The talk-show host continued on, reading from a portion of the Dr. Seuss-like book: “Winners aren’t losers, they’re winners – like me! A loser’s a loser, which one will you be?”
Obviously, the book was light-hearted mockery about Trump, though one section may have pushed things a bit further than Trump was comfortable with. “Oh, the places you’ll go on your yacht! On your plane! With your suits from Milan! And your wives from Ukraine!” Though Trump remained good-natured, this new mockery, added to Kimmel’s monologue when Trump canceled his original appearance, certainly set the stage for future altercations.
The Nationwide Text Alert Fiasco Of 2018
After Winners Aren’t Losers, a couple of quiet years passed between the pair, save a heartfelt series of pleas from Kimmel in 2017 regarding Trump’s overhauling of Obamacare. In 2018, Kimmel would reignite the beef after Trump tested a nationwide text alert system on October 3. The system was meant to be used in the event of terrorist attacks or natural disasters, though Kimmel turned it into a mock Hollywood film trailer.
The trailer plays off of Trump’s habit of constantly tweeting his thoughts to the public[ and what this could mean for a national alert system. Part of this was likely inspired by Trump’s viral “covfefe” tweet incident of May 2017. In the trailer, a family of three is driving along when they begin to receive alerts. At first, the father believes it is a tweet from Trump but realizes in horror that it’s a text. Messages reading “No collusion!” and “Witch hunt!” blare through their phone screens. The camera pans to families running from cars in horror and a police officer shooting his cell phone.
On Mother’s Day in 2020, the Kimmel-Trump beef boiled over. For some of the day, Jimmy Kimmel found himself embroiled in a tweet battle with the former president. It all began when Kimmel posted a video of Mike Pence carrying personal protective equipment to a senior citizen facility. At a certain point in the video, Pence finds empty boxes in a van and asks if he can carry them for the cameras—a joke Kimmel misunderstood because he’d only seen a portion of the video. When this was pointed out to the talk-show host, he apologized and took the video down. However, this was just the start of an online tussle that would carry on throughout the day.
Kimmel thought the issue was settled once he acknowledged his mistake and removed the video. But not long after, he started receiving updates that the president was tweeting about him. It wasn’t just one or two tweets, but a rambling rant by Trump and friends on Kimmel’s “doctored” video. Trump also made a slew of strange comments about alleged and unspecified crimes Barack Obama committed. Amid the flurry of tweets, Trump insulted Kimmel, writing, “More fake news, this time from Jimmy Kimmel’s last place show.” Kimmel sent one tweet back to the president, simply telling him to go make his wife brunch. “This is what the White House is working on and thinking about right now,” Kimmel concluded in an at-home quarantine monologue reviewing the incident.
Rolling Stone Reports That Trump Officials Complained to Disney About Kimmel
In February 2023, Rolling Stone published an article revealing just how much Kimmel’s continuous joking had gotten to Trump during his presidency. Apparently, members of Trump’s administration had contacted Disney, ABC’s parent company, regarding Kimmel’s ongoing jokes. Trump seemed to think that Disney and ABC would act off these calls to do something to “reign in” Kimmel. The Trump officials dealing with the calls to Disney reported that Trump felt Kimmel was being dishonest and that this kind of commentary was something Trump would’ve sued over before he was in public office. The officials noted they felt obliged to make the calls because Trump was so focused on Kimmel’s commentaries. They realized that nothing would likely change based on their intervention.
Kimmel-Trump Feud Explodes at the 2024 Oscars
Although the beef between DJT and Jimmy has been simmering for years, no one expected it to completely explode at the 2024 Oscars on March 10. Trump lambasted Kimmel repeatedly on his platform Truth Social during one of the talk show host’s on-stage monologues. The former president wrote things such as, “Has there EVER been a WORSE HOST than Jimmy Kimmel at The Oscars,” and, “His opening was that of a less than average person trying too hard to be something which he is not, and never can be.” Kimmel took the potshots in stride, responding to them in real-time. He smiled as he responded, “Thank you—I’m surprised you’re still watching. Isn’t it past your jail time?” The audience laughed in response to Kimmel’s reference to the ongoing Trump “hush money” trial.
Kimmel Reveals His Plans to Keep Driving Trump Nuts
It seems that Trump has continued to brew over Kimmel’s jabs during the Oscars. He said in a Fox News interview about a week later that Kimmel was both a “lousy host” and “not a talented guy.” He also told the interviewers that “ratings are terrible” for Jimmy Kimmel Live. Kimmel has no plans of slowing down amid Trump’s hush money trial, either. Kimmel joked during an interview on the Seth Meyers’s show that he had a “plan” to drive Trump crazy for years to come. He says that if Trump is convicted, he will “commit a crime in the tri-state area with the goal of getting incarcerated along with him, so I can drive him insane from the inside, too.”
Earlier this week, reality star Kim Kardashian made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel’s late night talk show. She was there primarily to discuss the season finale to the current American Horror Story anthology. She took on an acting role in the series and discussed some of her experiences and the upcoming finale while on the show. Additionally, the pair played a special game where Kim spoke on rumors about her that have allegedly been circulating for years.
Through the game she revealed all kinds of unique eccentricities about herself. She admitted that before putting on any metal jewelry or clothes she uses a blow dryer on it to heat it up. This is apparently because she doesn’t like the feeling of cold metal touching her skin. Similarly, she revealed she hates the sounds that cardboard makes dragging against other objects. Specifically, she makes her assistants remove the cardboard slip covers from her coffees to avoid having to hear the sound. She copped to even more strange things throughout the segment. Check out the full clip below.
Over the weekend, Kim Kardashian was at the center of the biggest, and perhaps only diss track to hit the pop music world so far in 2024. Taylor Swift has been feuding with the reality star for years now dating back to a 2016 beef that Kardashian inherited from Kanye West. Kim has been near silent on the beef for years but Taylor has brought it up repeatedly. She once again did so on a track from the deluxe edition of her new album The Tortured Poets Department.
She used playful capitalization on a song called “thanK you aIMee” to make sure fans knew just who the song was meant to be about. What do you think of Kim Kardashian confessing to various quirky behaviors? Do you think she purposefully tried to avoid the recent diss track Taylor Swift released about her? Let us know in the comment section below.
Jack Antonoff brought up the topic of Kanye West while appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday night. In doing so, he explained why he doesn’t like working with men in the music industry and accused the Vultures rapper of wearing diapers. The conversation arose after Kimmel listed off Antonoff’s most famous collaborators, all of whom were women.
“I think men… There’s two people that I think are are almost too over-sensitive to even function, and it’s men and members of the music industry,” he explained. “The amount of sensitivity… it’s sort of like watching Kanye. By the way — and Jimmy, you might like this because I know that you have your own relationship with the right and how you interact with them, and you’re much closer to how I see these things than other people. I don’t like going to people and, ‘You do this, you do this, blah blah blah,’ because that’s what they want, you know, this sort of type of over-sensitive man. So I just do more of this, like… like if I saw Kanye, I would run up to him and be like, ‘The diaper… your diaper is so full, we have to change your diaper. Your diaper needs to be changed, there’s a huge problem.’”

Antonoff previously labeled West a “little cry baby b*tch” in a viral post on Twitter from January. Speaking with the Los Angeles Times the following month, he reaffirmed that opinion while praising his collaborator, Taylor Swift. He elaborated that West “just needs his diaper changed so badly.”
Jack Antonoff Speaks With Jimmy Kimmel
Check out Antonoff’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! above. It comes after he performed at Coachella with his band, Bleachers. Be on the lookout for further updates on Jack Antonoff and Kanye West on HotNewHipHop.
To be clear: As far as we can gather from publicly available information, Kanye West does not wear diapers. That hasn’t stopped Jack Antonoff from jokingly making that assertion about Ye, though. He did so in a Los Angeles Times interview from February, and he did so again yesterday (April 16) on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
The discourse started when Kimmel rattled off a list of some of Antonoff’s collaborators, all of whom were women. He jokingly asked what Antonoff has against men, and then more seriously wondered if there’s something that makes him more inclined to work with female artists over male ones.
Antonoff attested that he works with a lot of men, too. He then went on to try to explain his perspective to Kimmel, and after a couple of unsuccessful attempts at getting Kimmel to understand, he eventually said:
“I think men… There’s two people that I think are are almost too over-sensitive to even function, and it’s men and members of the music industry. The amount of sensitivity… it’s sort of like watching Kanye. By the way — and Jimmy, you might like this because I know that you have your own relationship with the right and how you interact with them, and you’re much closer to how I see these things than other people. I don’t like going to people and, ‘You do this, you do this, blah blah blah,’ because that’s what they want, you know, this sort of type of over-sensitive man. So I just do more of this, like… like if I saw Kanye, I would run up to him and be like, ‘The diaper… your diaper is so full, we have to change your diaper. Your diaper needs to be changed, there’s a huge problem.’”
He then compared that mindset to Kimmel’s famously antagonistic approach to Donald Trump and his supporters, assessing that, like Kimmel, he prefers to “up the trolling” instead of being “overly offended.”
Antonoff’s band Bleachers also performed “Tiny Moves” on the show, by the way, so check that out below.
Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Eminem, and Snoop Dogg all starred in a “Dre’s Anatomy” skit on Live! With Jimmy Kimmel on Tuesday night. For the bit, the group of rappers attempted to locate the comedian’s penis with a magnifying glass and telescope. By the end of the sketch, the sounds of the medical equipment transition into “Still D.R.E.” and Eminem pops up to joke with 50 Cent.
In addition to appearing in the skit, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and 50 Cent, without Eminem, sat down with Kimmel for an interview on the show. In doing so, Dre revealed that Eminem has a new album coming out later this year that he contributed to. “Let me tell you something, let me explain something to you right now: Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year,” he said.

Dre went on to confirm that Eminem gave him permission to make the announcement. He explained: “So he has an album coming out, I’ve got songs on it and it’s fire. I’m actually gonna hear the entire album for the first time for tomorrow. And he holds his music close to his chest so I haven’t heard everything. I haven’t even heard everything complete that I’ve done, but I’m gonna hear it, and he’s putting out an album this year.” Check out the sketch on Live! With Jimmy Kimmel below.
Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, & Eminem Star In Jimmy Kimmel Skit
Earlier in the day, the group all joined Dre in Hollywood to celebrate the unveiling of his star on the Walk of Fame. Be on the lookout for further updates on Dr. Dre on HotNewHipHop.
Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and 50 Cent are four of the best to ever do it when it comes to hip-hop. Now, the four have come together on one project… that project being a Jimmy Kimmel Live! sketch.
The skit — which aired last night, March 19) is about a fictional TV show called Dre’s Anatomy, and anatomy is the issue here. The video starts with Kimmel being rushed into a hospital room, where Dr. Dre (playing an actual medical doctor, of course) lifts the blanket covering the host’s waist and is shocked by what he finds (or rather, doesn’t find).
Dre says, “What the f*ck is this? This man has no penis.”
Kimmel is confused by that, but Dre calls on “Dr. Broadus” (Snoop) for a second opinion. Even with help from a magnifying glass, Snoop has trouble locating the penis. 50 Cent then comes in with a telescope, focused squarely on Kimmel’s crotch, and still nothing. They eventually put Kimmel under anesthesia (which sure looks like weed smoke) before the beeping machines start producing the beat to “Still D.R.E.,” which gets a party started.
After the Dre’s Anatomy promo ends, it segues into a quick teaser for another fictional medical show, EM. Eminem makes a cameo, holding a syringe and deadpanning to the camera, “You only get one shot.” 50 enters and interjects, “One shot? I got shot nine times.” Eminem replies, “That’s a weird flex, but… OK.”
Check out the skit above. The group (minus Eminem) also sat down for a lengthy interview with Kimmel, so check that out below.
Eminem is easily one of the biggest legends in the music world. Overall, the hip-hop pioneer has classic records and classic songs. However, the last time we heard an album from Em was back in early 2020 with Music To Be Murdered By. His last few albums haven’t gotten the critical reception that you would hope for, and it has some wondering whether he has lost his touch. That said, he has a lot of friends in the industry, including Dr. Dre. Dre knows how to get an artist right, and it seems like he is doing just that.
After getting his star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame, Dre, Snoop Dogg, and 50 Cent made their way to Live! With Jimmy Kimmel. It was here where Dre made a bombshell announcement. As you can see at the 25-minute mark below, Dr. Dre revealed that Eminem will be dropping an album this year. “Let me tell you something, let me explain something to you right now: Eminem is working on his own album which is coming out this year,” he said. Overall, this is huge news. Moreover, Dre revealed that he has some songs to mix, and that his fingerprints will be on this record.
“And I actually talked to him and he told me it was okay for me to make that announcement right here on this show,” Dr. Dre said. “So he has an album coming out, I’ve got songs on it and it’s fire. I’m actually gonna hear the entire album for the first time for tomorrow. And he holds his music close to his chest so I haven’t heard everything. I haven’t even heard everything complete that I’ve done, but I’m gonna hear it, and he’s putting out an album this year.”

Jimmy Kimmel was happy to address Aaron Rodgers in a scathing rant on the latest episode of his late-night show, but rather than clapping back, the NFL star’s response makes it sound as though he’s ready to put their feud to rest. In his opening monologue on Monday (January 8), the TV personality gave the audience an ear-full about his nemesis, who he believes is obviously guilty of defamation. Kimmel insinuated that Rodgers was planning on popping bottles if his name came out along with the controversial Jeffrey Epstein documents. The former says he’s never met the embattled financier and dares “Karen Rodgers” to share any incriminating evidence in court.
Though Kimmel also asked for an apology, the quarterback doesn’t seem ready to give it. However, he did have a few words for the host that better clarified his stance on the 56-year-old’s alleged connection to Epstein. “I was referring to the fact that if there’s a list,” Rodgers said on a new episode of The Pat McAfee Show, “and there are names on it, that it’d be the second time a soft-brained, junior college wacko… Whatever other things have been said by him and other people in the media – would be right twice.”
“I totally understand how serious an allegation of pedophilia would be… I’m not [ignorant] enough to accuse you of that with zero evidence,” the California native continued before throwing in a few digs at Kimmel’s intelligence. From the sounds of things, Rodgers is about ready to put the spat behind him and move on with his life.
“I think it’s impressive that a man who went to Arizona State and has joke writers can read off a prompter,” Aaron Rodgers further responded to Kimmel. “I wish him the best, I don’t give a s*** what he says about me. I’m not accusing him of being on the list.” Check out the athlete’s full statement above and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
