Things got hilariously crazy on the latest episode of Ellen. During the episode, she alleged that she heard claims that her special guest, Diddy, was afraid of clowns. He vehemently denied her claim. “No, impossible,” he said denying it. “I’m a Black man. I have so many other things to be fearful of, a clown isn’t going to scare me. I’m not afraid of clowns.”

Next, Ellen decided to put Diddy to the test. As soon as he finished denying her seemingly outlandish claim, she then had a clown pop out and scare the daylights out of him. The clown resembled Pennywise from the movie It, which made the ordeal even scarier.

After being frightened out of his seat and trying to play it off, Diddy began laughing about the whole experience. “You know I woke up this morning and said I want my life to be full of surprises, Ellen I thank you,” he said. “You really affected my street cred with that.” Check out the clip of Diddy confronting his clown fears below.
