Former US President Barack Obama’s name has come forward into the Diddy trial as Diddy’s former personal assistant says his boss used to take ecstasy pills shaped like Obama’s mug via TMZ.
David James, who worked for Bad Boy from 2007 to 2009 has testified for the prosecution on Tuesday and told the jury that he witnessed Diddy with a bunch of different pills, including one with a very specific feature.
James claimed that one of the pills was ecstasy in the shape of a former president’s face.
“Can you describe the ecstasy that you saw him taking?” Assistant U.S. Attorney Christine Slavik asked.
“There were various pills, but there was one that was in the shape of a former president’s face,” James explained.
“Which former president?” the prosecutor questioned.
“President Obama,” James answered.
Diddy’s treasure trove of pills also included Viagra, weight loss pills and sperm count supplements … James testified.
TMZ had previously reported that James also told the jury he took ecstasy and drank Ciroc vodka, Diddy’s own brand of alcohol, while employed by Diddy … describing it as “Diddy-bopping.”
Earlier in the trial, federal agents testified they found ketamine and MDMA in Diddy’s New York hotel room after he was arrested in September 2024 … and photos from the search were recently entered as exhibits in the case.
