Michelle Branch has revealed that she is grateful that she left a Diddy party early. As reported by PEOPLE, in a post to her Instagram Stories shared on Monday, December 15th, Branch dropped a screenshot of her text messages with her former Wreckers bandmate Jessica Harp about a 2004 MTV Video Music Awards afterparty hosted by Sean “Diddy” Combs that they attended.
Harp texted Branch a Getty Images photo of the pair arriving at the event with the message, “Not me watching the Diddy docuseries and realizing that one of the freak offs absolutely happened this night 😂🫠.”
“Oh. My. God. I’ve wondered tbh,” Branch replied.
“I don’t remember why we left, but so glad our night was smoking weed and eating tacos with Owen Wilson instead,” Harp claimed. Branch agreed, writing, “Same lol.”
Branch penned, “VMA memories w/ @jessicaharp82 🤣,” over the screenshot.
Branch and Harp are longtime friends and performed together as The Wreckers between 2005 and 2007. The duo released their debut album Sit Still Look Pretty in 2006, which included the #1 hit “Leave The Pieces.” They parted ways in 2008 to pursue solo careers.
The Netflix docuseries Sean Combs: The Reckoning, released earlier this month and executive-produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, explores the story of the music mogul’s life up to his 2025 trial. The four-part series details Combs’ rise and fall, including his volatile relationship with rapper Tupac Shakur, his alleged abuse of ex-girlfriend Casandra “Cassie” Ventura, and several assault allegations.
