Diddy Spotted For First Time Since Release of Cassie Hotel Video

Diddy isn’t hiding from cameras in the wake of the Cassie video – if anything, he’s making a point to be out in public … stepping out into the wild and seemingly telegraphing a few things, if these pics are any indication.

The rap mogul looked unbothered as he smoked a cigar while taking a leisurely stroll through his Miami neighborhood Sunday. Dressed in an all-white outfit and wearing a medallion — which featured a childhood photo of himself and his father — Diddy appeared to be signaling something with his look … although, he stayed mum when he ran into photogs.

Instead, the rapper offered up a one word response, “Love” … which he supported by making the shape of the letter “L” with his hand. Hard to say for sure what he’s trying to communicate – but on its face, he’s showing that he ain’t ducking out of the spotlight … even at this point, with many in the public having turned on him.

Mind you … this is the first time Diddy has been seen in public since the release of the 2016 hotel security footage, which showed Puff beating on his ex – something he addressed this weekend as well in an apology video.

Cassie’s lawyer called BS on Diddy’s mea culpa, slamming the video as self-serving.

Diddy is facing lots of other allegations in several different civil lawsuits … but has vehemently denied those claims and maintained his innocence. His lawyer also blasted the March raids on Diddy’s Miami and Los Angeles as a “witch hunt” … noting the rapper was never detained by authorities.
