Katt Williams has reacted to Sean "Diddy" Combs' arrest by reposting a joke about the rapper possibly snitching on his co-conspirators in his alleged sex crimes.
The comedian had previously spoken out about declining an invitation to a party hosted by the rapper and stated at the time that he could back up his claims.
Sean "Diddy" Combs has been at the center of controversy since his arrest following a grand jury indictment last week.
Katt Williams Believes Diddy Will 'Snitch' On Everybody
Taking to his Instagram Story, Williams reposted a video related to Diddy, who was recently arrested on sex crime charges.
"Diddy about to snitch on everybody," read the caption on the video, reposted by Williams.
Even more humorous was the AI-generated clip the comedian shared on his IG stories. It cleverly parodied scenes from the iconic 1991 film "New Jack City," which starred Wesley Snipes as a drug pusher character, Nino Brown.
In the AI-edited version, Diddy's face is replaced with Brown and backdrops on the famous courtroom scene in the film. Brown is then seen attempting to shift blame by identifying one of his assistants as the "real head" of his gang.
Williams also appears to be in the crowd, looking appalled after Brown (Diddy) implicated the associate.

Williams' comments follow his previous claim that he had been invited to a party hosted by Diddy but chose to decline the offer, per US Weekly.
"I've had to turn down $50 million four times. Just to protect my integrity and that virgin hole I was telling you about, right?" said Williams during an appearance on Shannon Sharpe's "Club Shay Shay" podcast in January.
He added, "Cause P. Diddy be wanting to party, and you got to tell him no. You got to tell him no! I did. See, I got the receipts for everything I'm telling you, that's why I can say them so freely."
At the time, the comedian also predicted that the year would be rife with scandals involving numerous high-profile individuals.
"All of these big d-ck deviants is all catching hell in 2024," Williams continued. "It's up for all of them. It don't matter if it's Diddy or whoever you is."
When Was Diddy Arrested?
On September 16, Diddy was arrested on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution after a grand jury in New York indicted him earlier that same day.
The news of Diddy's arrest quickly dominated headlines, though it didn't come as a surprise. Federal prosecutors had launched an investigation into him earlier in the year, which resulted in a raid on his homes back in March.
The rapper himself also seemed to have expected to be arrested, as he had traveled to New York ahead of the indictment and made himself available to authorities when it came time to be taken into custody.
He has since been denied bail twice by two different judges and is currently being held in the Special Housing Unit of the Metropolitan Detention Center in New York.
A trial date has yet to be set, and there is a possibility that additional charges may be filed as the case continues to develop.
Diddy's Lawyer Says He's 'Strong' And 'Focused On His Defense' After Suicide Watch Report
People Magazine revealed that the "Finna Get Loose" rapper was placed under surveillance just in case he attempted to commit suicide while awaiting trial.
An insider told the news outlet that the decision was made for "preventative measures as Diddy is in shock and his mental state is unclear."
However, Diddy's lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, noted that Combs is "not at all suicidal," telling TMZthat the directive was routine for "new, high-profile inmates."
Agnifilo added that he spent six hours with the disgraced music producer on Thursday and found him to be "strong, healthy, confident, and focused on his defense."
