Sean Diddy Combs' Hamptons White parties have been a bone of contention since his arrest. It was further highlighted by Justin Litovsky, who was six years old when he attended one of these parties with his parents.
In a piece by the New York Post from October 2, 2024, influencer Maya Litovsky, Justin's mother, said she quickly decided against letting her son join the activities. She reflected on the scene, noting the presence of bottles and naked women. Maya said:
“There were bottles everywhere and n*ked women. I wasn’t sure if this was appropriate or normal. I wondered about how kids were allowed into the party to begin with.”
They unknowingly showed up at Diddy's July 3, 1999, ‘afternoon barbecue,’ and found that it was filled with partygoers celebrating extravagantly. Justin expressed his desire to join the party and whenever he was near a pool, he wanted to swim. At the time, he was unsure whether these aspects of the party were good or bad. He said:
“I remember a lot of weed and a bunch of topless women in the pool and around the pool.”
Guests at Diddy’s party included Jay-Z, who was smoking a Cohiba, along with Lil’ Kim sporting platinum hair, designer Donna Karan, and Tyson Beckford. Reportedly, if Diddy had concerns about the presence of a minor, he didn’t show it.
Justin and Maya attended the event with David Allen, Justin’s father. Allen recalled moving around the lively gathering, capturing images of the celebrities as part of his job.

Justin mentioned that his father helped him get photos with various celebrities, including Magic Johnson, Patti LaBelle, and Keith Richards. However, he found his experience at the Diddy event somewhat mixed, feeling that his smile in the pictures didn’t appear typical, likely due to the adult activities happening around him.
The family navigated the elite party by steering clear of marijuana smoke, alcohol, and topless partygoers. At the time, they didn’t think much of it but with the recent serious s*xual misconduct charges against Diddy, they now find themselves questioning what they had gotten involved in. Maya said:
“We didn’t see people having s*x, but we left at 9:30 PM. The party continued and nobody was getting out of the pool. So, who knows what happened.”
The rapper later implemented a curfew for kids at future parties, joking in 2007 about the need for child welfare to arrive on time. Justin recalled being the only child present at the 1999 event. He noted that he didn't see any other kids around.
The first White party was reportedly held exclusively in the Hamptons before expanding to other luxurious locations worldwide. The dress code was strictly enforced, requiring guests to wear white. According to The Tab, the last party took place on July 4, 2009, and was co-hosted by Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore.
Diddy was arrested on charges such as racketeering and sex trafficking and is currently awaiting trial at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where he has pleaded not guilty.
