A celebrity photographer who attended some of Diddy’s parties claimed there was a ‘warning for children’.

Real name Sean Combs, Diddy recently issued a damning statement from jail following reports that 120 alleged victims are going to come forward with sexual assault claims.

The hip-hop music star has denied allegations and is currently being held behind bars after pleading not guilty to charges of racketeering, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution.

Diddy is known for having thrown infamous parties filled with celebrities from across the entertainment industry. And celebrity photographer Selma Fonseca went to ‘20 to 30 Diddy parties’ throughout her career.

The celebrity photographer described ‘all his parties’ as ‘incredible’ as she recalled: “The best food, the best music, drinks, entertainers, people with fire.”

Explaining how party goers ‘could have whatever you wanted’, she said they were almost like being at ‘a mini circus’. In the indictment presented in court last month, it was alleged ‘Freak Offs’ would take place at parties which were ‘elaborate produced sex performances that Combs arranged, directed, masturbated during, and often electronically recorded’.

Saying she didn’t witness these alleged events, Fonseca added how there was ‘no VIP area that was closed off’ but some people got to go inside whereas others weren’t allowed.

The photographer was ‘never invited’ to go inside and wasn’t really sure at the time what would be going on.

Fonesca added how most of the time, the parties would start off innocently with various celebs’ children being in tow.

But when parents were told to put them down, ‘things were going to get crazy’.

In a video obtained by Fox News Digital, Diddy can be heard warning parents to ‘put the kids away’ so everyone else could get their ‘groove on.’

“We fed ya’ll, gave ya’ll some drinks. Now it’s time to enjoy life,” the music mogul said. “This is a celebration of life. This is the legendary white party. And to all the kids, the kids have an hour left.

“Get extra comfortable kids, because after that, ya’ll got to go. It’s a wrap for ya’ll. Because this thing turns into something that when ya’ll get older, ya’ll are going to want to come to.

"Let’s start to get our groove on and in an hour we’ll put the kids away.”
