Jimmy Kimmel has the receipts.
Following Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs‘ recent indictment on racketeering and trafficking charges, Kimmel somehow unearthed a clip from Celebrity Apprentice Season 5 that shows Donald Trump defending the rapper and mogul.
In the clip, former Diddy employee Aubrey O’Day is trying to pitch herself to Trump, claiming her experience working with Diddy made her into a perfectionist.
“I’m a very strict and focused businesswoman because working for Diddy six years trained me to have to be perfect,” she told Trump, who replied, “I love Diddy. You know he’s a good friend of mine, he’s a good guy. Is he a good guy?”
O’Day, who later became a vocal critic of Diddy after she was fired from his R&B girl group Danity Kane in 2008, seemed hesitant to respond in the clip. “I don’t want to answer that question,” she replied.
“Oh, well I think he’s a good guy. I’m gonna stand up for him,” Trump responded.
The clip drew laughs from the audience as Kimmel noted, “Well, to be fair he also thinks Kim Jong Un is a good guy, so only the best, people.”
Diddy was arrested Monday (Sept. 16) and is facing a federal indictment on racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking and transportation to engage in prostitution.
