Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs invites 12-year-old ‘The Ring’ actress to MTV party in resurfaced video

A resurfaced video of Sean “Diddy” Combs inviting a child actress to a party has gone viral amid allegations that the embattled music mogul has committed sexual misconduct against minors.

The clip shows the “I Need a Girl” rapper, then 33, asking Daveigh Chase, then 12, backstage at the 2003 MTV Movie Awards, “You coming to the afterparty tonight?” as he walks up to her while holding a drink near his mouth.

The young girl then nods yes, prompting Combs — who was known at the time to throw wild and lavish Hollywood parties — to laugh in a mischievous manner and say, “Yeah!”

The pair had seemingly met earlier in the night when the Bad Boy Records founder and Ashton Kutcher presented Chase with the best villain award for her role as Samara in the hit horror flick “The Ring.”

When Chase went up to accept her award during the live show, Kutcher — who once hinted at knowing secrets about party-loving Combs — leaned in to tell the preteen that she was “doing so good” and gently patted her arms. The “Last Night” rapper then told her at the podium, “Take your time.”

The “That’s ’70s Show” alum, then 25, was also backstage when Combs extended the party invitation, as it appears to have taken place right after the award exchange, but he just laughed off his co-presenter’s remarks.

“Diddy did all this publicly, imagine what happened behind closed doors. I hope they lock him up for life!” one person commented on X Tuesday after seeing the video.

Another social media user added, “Damn, it’s blatant when you have hindsight. Poor kids didn’t have a chance. His glee is repulsive.”

A spokesperson for Combs tells Page Six, “It’s disappointing to see the media and social media commentators twist moments into something they were not.”

The “Coming Home” rapper, now 54, has been down this road before amid his recent legal issues, as several clips of him with a young Justin Bieber have also resurfaced online, sparking new questions and concerns.

Page Six also reached out to a rep for Kutcher but did not immediately hear back. Chase, now 34, did not return our requests for comment either nor has she commented on the matter online.

However, the “Donnie Darko” star has been keeping a low profile on social media in recent years. She shared her last post on Instagram in 2017.

That same year, Chase got into some trouble with the law when she was arrested for riding in a stolen car. The following year, the “Lilo & Stitch” voice actress was charged with drug possession.

Combs’ legal issues, meanwhile, are much more severe, as he has been charged with sex trafficking, racketeering, fraud or coercion and transportation to engage in prostitution after being arrested last month.

The father of seven is also facing numerous civil lawsuits for sexual assault against 120 alleged victims, including 25 minors. One of the accusers was as young as 9 years old at the time of the alleged crime.

In a complaint filed this week, Combs and a second unnamed male celebrity were accused of raping a 13-year-old girl after the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards in front of a famous adult female.

The identities of the two other stars and the teen were not included in the filing.

Combs’ team has demanded that the alleged victims’ names be released so that the “It’s All About the Benjamins” rapper can defend himself against the allegations during his trial, which begins in May 2025.

Combs — who has denied any wrongdoing in all of the cases against him — is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, NY.

He faces a minimum of 15 years in prison or a maximum life sentence if he is convicted.
