Kanye West made a surprise appearance at Sean “Diddy” Combs’ sex trafficking trial on Friday, according to TMZ. Combs is also being tried for racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution in the ongoing proceedings, which are expected to last into early July and could potentially hand him life in prison if convicted. West has been the only celebrity to publicly support Combs following his September arrest last year, even going so far to feature a leaked prison phone call between the two in his song “Lonely Roads Still Go to Sunshine.” The song also featured vocals by West’s 11-year-old daughter North West, to the chagrin of her mother Kim Kardashian. Prior to the song’s release, West had made a consistent habit of posting the message “Free Puff” in support of Combs on his social media pages, in between his racist or anti-semitic rants. He’d also begged Donald Trump to “free” his embattled buddy on X in February. According to TMZ, West made his support known in person on Friday, where he appeared at the courthouse in an all-white outfit—potentially a nod to Combs’ infamous White Parties. He walked in with Combs’ son Christian.
