Hollywood was left reeling after the bombshell verdict dropped on Wednesday in the federal trial of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs as he was acquitted of racketeering conspiracy and two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion.

The rapper, 55, was found not guilty despite harrowing testimony about alleged sexual abuse, forced drug binges, and so-called Freak Offs, but was convicted on two counts of transporting individuals to engage in prostitution after the jury deliberated for three days.

Each count carries up to 10 years behind bars, and federal prosecutors have already confirmed they’ll push for the full 20-year sentence.

But as stars reacted to the news, Combs’s rival 50 Cent was among the first to speak out, as he shared a photo of himself smiling, with the words: ‘Diddy beat the Feds that boy a bad man beat the Rico….’

Reaction: 50 Cent wrote ‘Diddy beat the Feds that boy a bad man beat the Rico….’

50 Cent has long made it clear how he feels about his rap nemesis, and he’s never missed a chance to troll Diddy online.

But lately, he’s taken things to a whole new level, unleashing a wave of wild, AI-generated images mocking the rap mogul and the explosive allegations tied to his trial.

Meanwhile, Diddy’s former protegee Aubrey O’Day came forward with her own explosive reaction.

In a video posted to her Instagram, the Danity Kane singer is seen watching the news unfold on TV, visibly shaken. ‘This makes me physically ill,’ she says in the clip.

Danity Kane was a multi-platinum girl group formed by Diddy on MTV’s Making the Band, originally consisting of Aubrey, Dawn Richard, Shannon Bex, Aundrea Fimbres, and D Woods.

Aubrey then remarked: ‘Oh my god, not guilty on Cassie!’

Cassie Ventura, Diddy’s ex girlfriend and the prosecution’s star witness, went through weeks of gut-wrenching testimony as she alleged that she was coerced into marathon ‘freak off’ sexual performances during her relationship with Combs.

In her testimony, Ventura – who was heavily pregnant as she took the stand – claimed that Combs often beat and abused her during their 11-year relationship.

During cross-examination Diddy’s defense attorneys brought up text messages from their relationship where Ventura wrote that she ‘loved’ the Freak Offs.

Response: Combs looked panicked after jurors announced on Tuesday they had reached a verdict on four of the five charges against him

But a jury on Wednesday was not swayed by her testimony, and rejected the prosecution’s top charges and only convicted Combs of transportation to engage in prostitution of Ventura and another woman.

Cassie has since given birth with her husband Alex Fine. She was not in attendance when the jury delivered the verdict on Wednesday, but her attorney was.

Following the verdict on Wednesday, Ventura’s attorney praised her for ‘paving the way’ for the bombshell trial against one of the music industry’s most powerful men.

‘This entire criminal process started when our client Cassie Ventura had the courage to file her civil complaint in November 2023,’ they said.

‘Although the jury did not find Combs guilty of sex trafficking Cassie beyond a reasonable doubt, she paved the way for a jury to find him guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution.’

Rosie O’Donnell also weighed in on the Diddy verdict. Taking to Instagram with a photo of the rapper, she wrote:’ I guess a jury just never wants to believe that a woman stays because of power and coercion – wow – they just think women stay because what? Money – fame – ‘they love the abuse’ – what a f***ing joke – this decision got me angry #cassie.’
