Kid Cudi Has This To Say to Fans After Speaking at Diddy Trial
Kid Cudi is speaking out after playing his part in Sean 'Diddy' Combs federal sex trafficking trial. And trust us when we say, it's something we all needed to hear.
As we previously told you, on Thursday, the 'Entergalactic' rapper took the stand where he divulged some of the alleged wrongdoing done to him by Diddy. Chief among it was his corroborating account that the Bad Boy mogul allegedly blew up his car after finding out he was romantically involved with his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. Cudi also alleged that Diddy broke into his home a month prior to the incident, opened gifts, and locked his dog in the bathroom because he wanted to get specifics on him and Ventura's relationship dynamics. He also described him as a 'Marvel supervillain.'
In the immediate aftermath of him sharing his testimony, Cudi was met with mixed reactions on social media. Some people felt as if he shouldn't have said anything and 'should've kept it hip-hop' and 'not snitched.' Others, however, applauded him for his bravery (mind you, he wasn't the one who brought it up in the first place and only confirmed it happened after he was subpoenaed) and offered positive words.
Now, after seeing all the love online, Cudi decided to address all the chatter later on Thursday after finishing his testimony. Speaking in a video message posted on his official X/Twitter page, the 'Day 'n' Nite' rapper said that while the situation has been stressful for him, he was deeply appreciative for the love and support he was being shown.
'I just wanna say thank you so much man. People have been hitting me up the past week just checking in. Even today, it really means a lot to me. You guys are the best, I love y'all. This was a stressful situation, I'm glad it's behind me. And yeah, I love y'all man. Big love,' he said.
As to be expected, fans flooded his comments section with more admiration and gratitude.
'I know how hard it is to hold someone accountable in a public space. You did the right thing for yourself and others today. Hope this helps you heal,' wrote one user.
'You know we got your back big bro,' said another.
Added one other user, 'Sending love man, sorry you had to experience all of that sh*t.'

Jury awards $2.25 million to Georgia couple in suit over autopsy images of decapitated baby
ATLANTA (AP) — A jury has awarded a Georgia couple $2.25 million in their lawsuit accusing a pathologist of posting graphic videos of an autopsy of their decapitated baby. A Fulton County jury returned the verdict against Dr. Jackson Gates on Wednesday. The couple, Jessica Ross and Treveon Isaiah Taylor Sr., hired Gates to perform an autopsy on their son, Treveon Taylor Jr., who was decapitated during delivery in July 2023. They have separately sued the doctor who delivered the baby and the hospital where the delivery occurred. That case is pending. In a lawsuit filed in September 2023, the couple said Gates posted several videos of the autopsy on Instagram without their permission. Gates initially removed the videos after receiving a letter from the couple's attorneys, but then reposted them, according to the couple's attorneys. Ira Livnat, an attorney for Gates, said Saturday the jury's finding that Gates did not intend to cause harm 'flies in the face' of the plaintiffs' 'entire case.' His client generally made posts about autopsies to educate other pathologists and advocate for independent evaluations when people felt a hospital had engaged in wrongdoing, he said. The couple received a default judgment for intentional infliction of emotional distress, invasion of privacy and fraud after Gates did not immediately respond to their lawsuit. 'Dr. Gates testified that he is deeply sorry for any harm that he unintentionally caused the plaintiffs,' Livnat said. 'Had he known for one second that they would see that and that they would know it was their child, he would never have done it.' Attorneys for the couple said in a statement that the doctor 'poured salt into the couple's already deep wounds.' 'This young couple trusted him with the remains of their precious baby,' they said. 'Gates, in turn, repaid this trust by posting horrific images of their child for the world to see.' Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request. There was a problem with the recaptcha.
