Diddy threw $5,000 in cash at the man he was paying to sleep with Cassie and told him one thing: "Shut up." Seconds earlier that man had called him out for asking if he was gay. For five or six years Diddy paid him in wads of cash to be with Cassie while he sat on a couch and watched every minute. It got so uncomfortable the man started taking drugs just to get through it. He took the money. He stayed quiet. Then it got crazier.
His name is Clayton Howard. In the video below he tells it himself, starting with the moment the cash hit him.
"He comes out. He tosses me a lot of money. Says shut up."
"You gave me five racks to shut up, stop calling you gay. No problem."
It started when Diddy looked at him in the middle of the night and asked:
"Yo, are you gay anyway?"
Clayton snapped.
"Look how I'm smashing your chick. Have I ever looked at you in any way like I want to smash you?"
Cassie walked in, heard it, and burst out laughing. Diddy got tight.
Then the freak off started. Diddy on the couch, the bed right in front of him, Clayton placed at an angle so Diddy could see everything.
"The drugs would help me focus on Cassie and not be so alert to what Diddy was doing."
A few minutes in, Diddy got on the bed and told Clayton to keep going right where he stood. Then he kept shifting so his backside was right in Clayton's view. Clayton moved. Diddy followed. Clayton moved again. Diddy followed again.
"Yo bro, you blocking the damn scenery. Stay in one place."
"Oh, oh, oh, my bad."
Years of cash to keep him in the room. $5,000 to stop one question.
Was Diddy paying for Cassie, or for the man watching her?
