Russell Brand previously revealed that Sean Combs took him on a “forced” vacation.
In a resurfaced interview on Black Ree TV in 2010, Brand said it was difficult to “say no” to the rapper, known as P Diddy, whom he described as an “influential person.”
When asked what it was like working with Diddy on the film Get Him to the Creek, Brand commented: “Diddy was new to me. He took care of me. He took me on a forced vacation to Las Vegas.
‘He is a very intense man because I think he came out of nowhere and now he is very, very powerful. People who do things like that are intense.
The comedian continued: ‘Now I like it. It is very influential. Let’s say you don’t want to do something and Diddy wants you to do it, it’s very hard not to do that.
A resurfaced interview shows Russell Brand revealing that rapper Sean Combs, known as P Diddy, took him on a “forced” vacation.
Describing P Diddy as “influential” and “intense,” Brand said he felt obligated to agree to the rapper’s requests so as not to upset him.

Brand was charged with rape, assault and emotional abuse as part of a joint investigation by Channel 4’s Dispatches programme, The Times and the Sunday Times last year.
Combs was in Britain in 2008 and 2010 to film and promote Get Him to the Greek, in which he appeared alongside Russell Brand. Pictured: Combs with the British comedian in 2009.
Brand gave examples of things someone would have to do at Diddy’s request, including feeding his fish and picking him up at the airport.
He added that he would feel obligated to agree to the rapper’s demands for fear of upsetting him.
He said: ‘It’s a bit of a mental fuck-up.’ Like it was very influential.
“He’s a lot of fun, but… he may ask you for a lot of favors and you won’t be able to say no.” That’s my concern.’
‘I don’t want to be anyone’s bitch. I have worked very hard in life. Not even Diddy’s bitch,’ he added.
Combs, 54, is currently awaiting trial at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center in New York City on charges of sex trafficking, extortion and transportation into prostitution.
He pleaded not guilty to all three charges and was denied bail.
The rapper allegedly coerced and manipulated victims into participating in so-called “freak-offs,” or all-day sexual performances, while giving them drugs to keep them compliant and threatening them if they refused.
A regular visitor to Britain for the past 30 years, Comb’s alleged activities may have targeted victims in the UK.

Last year, Brand was charged with rape, assault and emotional abuse as part of a joint investigation by Channel 4’s Dispatches, The Times and Sunday Times.
He continues to deny all claims about his behavior, which allegedly occurred during the height of his fame between 2006 and 2013.
This week Brand continued his conversion to Christianity, performing a baptism and interpreting the Bible.
The comedian was baptized in April and since December 2023 he has published several posts talking about his relationship with religion.
In a video uploaded this week, the former Buddhist said: ‘How can we understand with the conscious and limited mind that God Himself descended to earth and was sacrificed, so that we could be redeemed and resurrected, so that we could have eternal life? With our limited consciousness, it is not possible.’
