Selena Gomez’s Slip-Up at Charity Event Brings Laughter Over Accidental “Diddy” Mention


Selena Gomez brought a light-hearted moment to her charity event in Los Angeles on Thursday night after a small slip-up while speaking about her mental health mission. The star, looking stunning as she addressed the crowd at the Rare Impact Fund Benefit, was discussing the important work of her charity in partnership with Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services to help prevent youth suicide.

However, while introducing Didi Hirsch’s executive director, Selena accidentally said "Diddy" instead. The crowd immediately caught on, breaking into laughter as Selena quickly realized her mix-up. Flashing a smile, she promptly corrected herself and offered a quick apology, saying, “I really am sorry.”

Following the light moment, she invited Didi Hirsch’s executive director, Lyn Morris, and another team member to join her on stage, where they exchanged hugs. The event carried on smoothly, with the brief mention of Diddy quickly forgotten.

Notably, the real Diddy—who’s been making headlines himself—was recently arrested and faces serious charges, including racketeering and sex trafficking. The music mogul, who has pled not guilty, remains in jail after two bail denials.
