Sean Combs, also known by his stage names Puff Daddy and P. Diddy, faced speculation about his sexuality for an extended period of time.

People began to speculate about Combs’ sexuality after his verse in a song by independent rapper Blood Orange. In the music video, two men were seen kissing and hugging while Combs rapped the lyrics, “What will it take for me to stop being fearful and to be loved the way I want to be loved?”

He added, “I find myself wondering this at times. But I know how I want to be loved, and I’m terrified of experiencing it. It’s as though you desire something, but are unsure about whether or not you’re capable of dealing with it.”

Although the rapper did not explicitly come out as gay, his lyrics hinted at proximity to doing so. Additionally, during an appearance on The Breakfast Club in 2018, Fif persistently referred to Combs as “gay.”

Similarly, in 2019, the rapper posted a video expressing, “The year 2019 was a wild one. Some of us had a fantastic year, but for others, that (explicit) was, really, really tough. 2017 was a challenging year.”

Following the video, numerous followers inundated the comments section, urging him to “come out of the closet” and encouraging him to embrace his authentic self. A comment read, “It’s fine if you’re a gay man, Diddy. If you truly loved yourself, you would do what you state in the video.” Another commenter wrote, “Bruh, just come out; it’s ok; we are still going to listen to your music.”

Despite numerous speculations surrounding his sexuality, Combs has never directly addressed them. However, given the fact that he has been married twice and has six children, it is reasonable to assume that his sexual orientation is heterosexual.

Who is Sean Combs dating now?

Combs and Yung Miami became the subject of dating rumors in the summer of 2021. While both of them initially avoided addressing their relationship, the year 2022 brought forth a newfound clarity.

In June 2022, the rapper appeared on Miami’s podcast, Caresha Please. During the episode, when Miami asked him, “So what are we?” Combs responded by saying, “We’re dating. We do have dates. We’re friends. We go to exotic locations. We have great times.”

Likewise, during the 2022 BET Awards, one of the standout moments was Miami’s remarkable public display of support for the rapper. As Combs received the BET Lifetime Achievement Award, Miami held up a vibrant red sign with “Go Papi” written on it.

Later, in an interview with XXL Mag, Miami made another attempt to clarify their relationship. She stated, “We are dating. We are single, but we’re dating. People don’t understand what dating means. He’s single, I’m single, but we’re dating.”

She continued, “He sees other people outside of me, and I see people outside of him. I’m young. I’m dating. I’m, you know, having fun. I’m doing me. He’s doing the same thing. I can’t speak for exactly what he doing or who he seeing, but we are single and we dating.”

Despite the drama, the duo spent New Year’s weekend together in St. Barts, enjoying a yacht getaway. On January 1, 2023, Miami also shared adorable photos of their holiday break, expressing happiness with the caption, “Another 365 days around the world with you. Happy New Year!”

Matt Rife is making people laugh here and there with his comedic sketches.

He has gone viral several times on various platforms like TikTok and YouTube. As a result, he has gained a massive fanbase, who are curious about his life.

Especially after Matt released his standup special, Matthew Steven Rife, people wanted to know about his family life. This is because he talks about his family, mom, and grandfather in the special.

So naturally, people wanted to know more about his parents, especially the details about his mom and dad. 

Matt Rife was raised by his mom and grandfather

Matt was born on September 10, 1995, to his mom April Rife and a father, in North Lewisburg, Ohio. However, there is no information about his dad.

This is because Matt’s dad died when he was about one and a half years old. As a result, he did not get to grow up with his biological father.

In an interview with Numero, he revealed that his mother remarried, and he had a stepdad, Jason Sievers. He said, “My dad passed away when I was about one and a half and I ended up getting a stepdad later on, but he and I never really had a connection.”

Regardless, Matt has complimented Jason numerous times during his standup routine. Despite not being his biological dad, he was there for Matt during his teenage years.

In various interviews, Matt has described Jason as a solid and helpful figure, particularly throughout his adolescence. He has stated that his stepdad was always prepared to listen and give advice to him through difficult times.

Matt’s grandfather, Steve Rife, raised him alongside his mom. For the comedian, his parents were his mom and grandfather.

He said, “So my grandpa really was my father figure.”

Even though his biological dad died, Matt and April lived with Steve for the first five years after Matt was born. Even after he moved out, Matt spent “every single weekend” with Steve.

Matt could not go out or hang out with his friends, even during his teenage years. So, he would go to his granddad’s house and watch movies.

He said, “Our big thing was watching movies together every weekend. He would have five or six new DVDs that he went to the store and picked out.”

They mostly watched comedy movies with actors like Jim Carrey, David Spade, Rob Schneider, and Adam Sandler. “That was who I grew up on, that’s what he was a fan of and that was kind of our connection,” Matt added.

Watching comedy movies with his grandfather helped Rife grow the sense of humor that he has now. 

Matt Rife paid tribute to his late grandfather

Steve died on November 29, 2022, and needless to say, Matt was heartbroken. He took to Instagram to mourn his grandfather.

He posted a lot of photos and videos with Steve and wrote a heartfelt caption starting with, “This morning I lost my best friend in the entire world. My grandpa Steve.”

Matt called Steve the greatest man he had ever known and how he had never loved someone so much. He credited his entire career to Steve and said, “If I’ve ever made you laugh- it’s because of him.”

He called Steve his “father figure” and penned, “He taught me every single thing I know and gave his entire life for me. He was at every baseball game, he took me to every comedy show, he made me blueberry waffles every morning, and he’s the first person I’d call whenever anything happened.”

Matt confessed that he was heartbroken to lose the person he considered to be his dad. He thanked Steve for everything he had done to date and wrote, “Thank you so much for being my best friend, my teacher, my father, my grandfather, my inspiration, my soul, my everything.”

Rife’s standup special, Matthew Steven Rife, was also a tribute to his grandfather. Steve encouraged him to do stand-up, and now, Matt is one of the most recognized comedians in the world. 

He told Numero, “So doing this special was then built to have a theme enveloping his and mine relationship, from beginning to finish. And there’s a thank you at the very end of the special that kind of ties it all together.”

Mia Dio is not scared to admit that she got plastic surgery.

Plastic surgery has become taboo in the entertainment industry, with many celebrities and influencers do not like to admit that they have gone under the knife. They also hesitate to talk about their body and face before surgery.

However, Dio is not like that. She does not hesitate to admit that she got plastic surgery and spent a lot of money on various procedures.

Similarly, she has also shown her pictures before surgery and after, i.e., her current face. Dio started getting various procedures at a young age, and to date, she gets different fillers like Botox on her face.

She opened up about it all on a YouTube video titled, ‘I was ugly until I spent over $30,000 on a new face.’

Mia Dio on her plastic surgery

On December 22, 2023, Dio uploaded a YouTube video where she got real with her fans and followers. She admitted that she did not like her face before surgery and fillers.

She found herself ugly from a young age and spent a lot of money to feel pretty. She started the video by addressing the haters and judgments she would get from her video.

She said, “Before you judge me, I don’t really care. Because based off of this video, I am obviously my worst judge. You cannot out-judge me more than I have judged myself in this life.”

Dio got her first beauty enhancement — a lip filler — when she was 16. Since she was not of age to get such enhancements, she had to get a fake ID to do so.

She loved the procedure so much that she got addicted to it. As a result, she kept on getting lip fillers since she wanted to “look like a Bratz doll.”

But during that time, she did not have a lot of money. So, she got the cheapest options available, which were not healthy for her lips.

They got lumpy, did not move properly, and were too big for her face. At this point, people were worried about her. 

Dio claimed that she had “lip-filler dysmorphia” where her pout was never big enough for her. However, when she was 19, she got some fillers dissolved and evened out her lips.

After lip fillers, the influencer started getting plastic surgery. After graduating high school, she got a nose job for $5,000.

“The result looks so much like my natural nose, just a little bit more angular, which basically just snatched my face up,” Dio noted.

Dio did not go under the knife for quite some time after her nose job. However, soon, she discovered Botox and started getting injected.

She noticed that she had marks on her forehead while making faces for videos. So, she got Botox to make her forehead smooth, which lifted her eyebrows up side by side.

Currently, she gets “baby Botox” on her forehead regularly. Moreover, Dio also experiments with “fox eyelift,” where she puts threads under her skin to pull her skin up to give her a tight facelift.

She noted how they did not last for a long time but did not give up on them. She said, “Apparently if you keep on doing it, the skin underneath your skin scars enough that maybe it’ll just stay like that.”

Dio has also gotten her teeth done —  20 porcelain veneers, no crowns, with no sharpened teeth. She got them at a dental clinic in Bodrum, Turkey. 

After getting all these, the influencer thought of stopping these procedures for a while. However, it did not last for a long time since she met “Dr. Ron,” a celebrity injector in Miami, Florida.

She did all the plastic surgery and procedures Dr. Ron suggested. Retouching Botox, filler in her cheekbones, under-eye filer, and facelifts are some procedures Dio gets every ten months.

Her most recent plastic surgery, according to her video, was a boob job where she went from an A-cup to double D’s.

Mia Dio said “Social media is fake”

Dio has a massive fanbase, and a lot of people constantly compliment her. She responded to one such compliment that said, “I wish I were you so much. Outrageously beautiful.”

She admitted that she got “a little sad,” when she received compliments like that. It was because Dio did a lot of plastic surgery and fillers to feel pretty about herself.

Dio told her fanbase how social media was fake and not to compare themselves to her. She explained that she had done a lot of plastic surgery, and hence, she did not look like herself.

Moreover, Dio pointed out that she wears a lot of makeup for her videos. She added how her eyebrows did not look like in the video because she wears eyebrow gels.

Similarly, she wears false lashes, making her eyes look bright and big. She said, “Don’t wish you were me, I am not even me.”

That being said, Dio is comfortable with everything she has done to date. She claims it’s money well spent and does not regret anything.
