BET Awards 2025 recap: performances, winners, biggest moments, more

Kevin Hart savagely roasted Sean “Diddy” Combs’ wild afterparties — that he once hosted — during his opening monologue at the BET Awards 2025.

The comedian addressed his previous hosting gig with Diddy by quipping that he was “shutting down after-parties” after the award show, which is typically held on a Sunday.

“Take your asses home after this; that’s why I did this on a Monday. People gotta go to work tomorrow,” he told a laughing crowd at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles.

Hart, 45, then alluded to the Bad Boy Records founder’s sex- and drug-filled parties, which sometimes included profuse amounts of baby oil.

“That’s where s–t gets slippery, at them goddamn afterparties,” the “Ride Along” actor added. “We’re learning a lot about people, ain’t we?”

Page Six has reached out to reps for both Hart and Combs for comment, but did not immediately hear back.

Last October, Hart dodged questions about Combs’ wild functions after a video resurfaced of him hosting one of the disgraced rapper’s parties.

While the dad of four was on his way to dinner at West Hollywood’s LAVO restaurant, the paparazzi asked him if he had seen any of the massive amounts of baby oil found at the “Act Bad” rapper’s Miami and LA mansions when he “hosted” his parties.

“When I hosted for Diddy?” Hart questioned back in the clip. “You asking the wrong person the wrong question, man. It’s not a good question.”

When asked if he thought Combs, 55, would “be safe” in jail, Hart deflected once again.

“Wrong person, wrong question,” he said again while walking into the restaurant with his wife, Eniko Hart, 40, by his side.

In 2010, Kevin hosted one of Combs’ hotel parties, which was filled with half-naked women and alcohol.

In one part of the video, the “Jumanji: The Next Level” star could be seen sitting on the edge of a jacuzzi tub in NYC’s London Hotel while surrounded by bikini-clad women.

Several stars attended the party, as well, including Usher, Fabolous and Swizz Beatz and Combs’ Dirty Money bandmates, Dawn Richard and Kalenna Harper.

Kevin and the other celebs from the party have not been accused of any wrongdoing.
