Media personality DJ Vlad stated on Sunday, May 31, 2026, that he has verified the authenticity of a leaked 40-minute video circulating on social media.
The footage allegedly features incarcerated music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, adult film actor Sly Diggler, and Daphne Joy.

The video, which has sparked intense debate online, reportedly shows a man and a woman in a dimly lit room with red lights.
An off-camera voice resembling Combs appears to give instructions to the individuals.
Online users quickly identified the woman as Joy, the mother of rapper 50 Cent's son.
However, independent verification from other outlets has not been established, and neither Combs, Joy, nor 50 Cent has publicly commented on the clip.
DJ Vlad's Authentication
DJ Vlad addressed the footage on his Vlad TV YouTube channel, referencing a prior interview where Diggler alleged that Combs grabbed his phone to record a sexual encounter.
"I was not prepared for what I saw in that video," DJ Vlad said, noting that the leaked footage began with the exact censored screenshot he displayed during that earlier segment.
He emphasized that the connection between the leak and his prior coverage was not a coincidence, asserting the content is genuine and not artificially generated.
"That's not coincidence, that's not just by chance," he expressed.
DJ Vlad clarified he has never owned the footage, though he previously viewed a few minutes of it.

But that video is 100% real. I have no idea where it came from...
I don't think Sly knows where the leak came from, either. Maybe somebody hacked his phone.

The leak comes as Combs remains incarcerated following a federal criminal conviction.
