During Sean “Diddy” Combs’ time in the public eye, the rapper has made many famous friends. What many of Combs’ fans likely won’t know, however, is that the music superstar has been friends with Ashton Kutcher for years.
Since Kutcher has headlined many blockbuster movies and Diddy is successful enough to have many employees, the two men have things in common. Still, Kutcher’s fans were left with a lot of questions after Diddy’s homes were raided. With that in mind, it makes sense that many fans want to learn more about Kutcher and Diddy’s friendship.
This article will reveal what is known about Ashton Kutcher and Diddy’s friendship. Then, the article will look at Kutcher’s history of having problematic friends.
Ashton Kutcher Stated He Couldn’t Talk About Parts Of His Friendship With Sean “Diddy” Combs
After Sean “Diddy” Combs had been in the public eye for many years, his career hit a major speed bump in 2024. That year, Diddy was sued multiple times. Following those lawsuits, Diddy was facing allegations about many deeply disturbing and criminal things happening at parties the rapper routinely held.
In 2019, Ashton Kutcher made an appearance on one of the best YouTube talk shows, Hot Ones. While Kutcher was talking to Hot Ones’ host, Sean Evans, the topic of Diddy’s parties came up. Instead of sharing stories, Kutcher said that he couldn’t speak publicly about Diddy’s parties.
“I’ve got a lot I can’t tell. [Kutcher pauses to think for a moment.] I can’t tell that one either.”
Given the allegations that Diddy faced in 2024, it is easy to assume the worst about Kutcher refusing to talk about the rapper’s parties. However, it is important to note that the allegations against Diddy hadn’t surfaced by 2019 when Kutcher appeared on Hot Ones.
According to Marca.com, several celebrities have spoken out about Sean “Diddy” Combs’ notorious parties. Two examples of that are Jamie Foxx and Usher who’ve both implied that wild stuff happened at Diddy’s parties .
With that timeline in mind, it is clear that Kutcher may not have had any idea that his comments would later imply something dark. Some celebrities simply don’t want to share many private details about their lives, especially when they involve other famous people.
Wendy Williams and Sean “Diddy” Combs feuded for years before the rapper got wrapped up in controversy, legal drama, and house raids.
However, it is worth noting that in April 2024, The Daily Mail reported that Kutcher expected to be subpoenaed to testify in a potential Diddy trial. The same report claimed that Mila Kunis had banned Kutcher from publicly supporting Diddy throughout his legal troubles.
“Regardless of Ashton’s long history with him, he has distanced himself from Diddy since Cassie’s lawsuit, and even more so in the wake of the new ones. Mila will not let Ashton be in any sort of contact. He is expecting a subpoena as they have been good friends for 20 years.”
Years before Diddy was facing so many lawsuits, home raids, and legal troubles, he and Kutcher were open about their friendship. One example of that is when Kutcher and Diddy appeared on The Late Late Show with James Corden together in 2018, the rapper revealed how their friendship began.
“I was doing Making the Band on MTV and he was doing Punk’d. I gave him a call one day and I said, ‘I heard you were going to punk me and I just don’t think that’s a good idea.’”
Kutcher then interrupted Combs to frame their first discussion a little bit differently. “I’m pretty sure that’s not the way you said it! I think it was some version of, ‘if you do that, I don’t think that will work out well for you.’”
When Usher was only 14, he went to one of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ infamous parties and had a shocking experience.
Even though it seems like Kutcher and Diddy’s relationship may have begun with a threat, the two men still became close friends. The Daily Mail’s aforementioned article about Kutcher being subpoenaed also included an anecdote about the pair’s friendship.

According to a story Kutcher once told, he inspired Diddy to run the New York City Marathon in 2013.
After Diddy went on a run with Kutcher in front of the paparazzi, the rapper felt embarrassed after he couldn’t keep up with the actor.
“Halfway through the run, he’s like “I’m running out of gas right now. There was paparazzi all around us at the time. He’s like, ‘You gotta slow down and make it look like you’re not slowing down because I don’t want to look like I’m not going to be able to finish this thing.’”
Once the two friends got back to Kutcher’s home, Diddy was so upset the actor was in better shape that he trained hard to finish a marathon. “We finish out the run and then he was so upset over the fact that he got skunked on this run that he decided he would run the New York Marathon. He just started immediately training for the New York Marathon. He just can’t lose. Even when he’s that close to humility, it becomes a driver, so then he went out and ran the New York Marathon.”
Several Of Ashton Kutcher’s Friends Have Become Problematic
When The Daily Mail reported that Mila Kunis wouldn’t let Ashton Kutcher support Sean “Diddy” Combs, it came at a sensitive time for the couple. Around that time, it had been reported that Kunis and Kutcher were worried their reputations would never recover after they supported their criminal friend.
Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis were longtime friends of Danny Masterson before he was convicted of an atrocious crime; do they still support him?
During Kutcher and Kunis’ time starring in That ’70s Show, they both became close with their co-star Danny Masterson. Many years later, Masterson was put on trial for forcing himself on two women, found guilty, and sentenced to thirty years in prison.
Throughout Masterson’s legal troubles, Kutcher and Kunis remained close friends with him. In fact, the couple remained loyal to Masterson despite the crimes he was accused of and then found guilty of. Kutcher and Kunis even infamously wrote letters requesting leniency for Masterson after he was found guilty.
Another one of Kutcher’s close friends who has been publicly shamed is Wilmer Valderrama. Another one of Kutcher’s That ’70s Show co-stars, many people consider Valderrama to be toxic because of his dating history.
In 2022, Demi Lovato released a song titled “29” that shone a renewed spotlight on Valderrama’s past relationships. As it turns out, Valderrama has a history of dating much younger celebrities including Lovato, Mandy Moore, and Lindsay Lohan.
All three of those relationships reportedly began when Lovato, Moore, and Lohan were 16 or 17 years old and Valderrama was in his 20s.
