Kristin Cavallari says she “dodged a f–king bullet” by rejecting Sean “Diddy” Combs in her early 20s.
Cavallari, now 37, claimed during Tuesday’s episode of her “Let’s Be Honest” podcast that the music mogul once showered her with Valentine’s Day gifts while trying to score a date.
“I was 22, I believe, we had a mutual friend, he got my number, whatever,” the “Laguna Beach” alum recalled.
“He sent me the biggest bouquet of flowers I’ve ever seen. The biggest box of chocolates I’ve ever seen. A huge teddy bear.”
The “I’ll Be Missing You” rapper, who was recently accused of sexual assault by several women, also sent her bottles of his DeLeón tequila.
“I mean, it was like, ‘Holy s–t.’ I mean, it was multiple people bringing s–t into my house,” she said. “It was like s–t you see in a movie.”

Although she didn’t go out with Combs, the reality star admitted that it was a bit tempting.
“I mean, there’s obviously a part where you’re like, ‘Whoa, this guy is spoiling the s—t out of me.’ Like that’s so sweet, and I’ve never met this guy,” she explained.

“It was like s—t you see in a movie,” she said of his lavish gestures. WireImage“Now, as an adult, I’m like, ‘Red f–king flag!'” she said. “I mean, that’s some love-bombing kind of s—t.”
Despite turning him down, Cavallari said Combs “kept asking [her] out” until she made it clear that she was not interested.
“I could never just go on a date with someone because it was so-and-so,” she explained. “I have always had to be attracted to you. … I don’t want to be the arm candy.”
Reps for Combs did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
However, Cavallari — who was in her early 20s at the time — shot the rapper down. J.
