SELENA Gomez was left extremely embarrassed when she accidentally called someone “Diddy” at a charity event.
The Only Murders in the Building actress was hosting her second annual Rare Impact Fund event on Thursday night in Los Angeles, when she was supposed to introduce Didi Hirsch. However, he mistakenly called him “Diddy,” the name by which producer Sean Combs is known.
Diddy is currently facing federal charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. He denies all charges and is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

Selena immediately apologized for the mistake and looked a little awkward. According to TMZ, Selena is introducing Didi Hirsch, who runs Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services (DHMS) and works to prevent suicide among teens. After saying “Diddy,” he immediately apologized to the audience, saying, “I’m really sorry!”
Selena’s ex-boyfriend, Justin Bieber, was once mentored by Diddy. Justin appeared on Diddy’s album released last year, and videos of the two of them resurfaced after Diddy’s arrest.
A video shows a 15-year-old Justin with the rap mogul, with Diddy telling the camera they can’t “reveal” what they will do for the next 48 hours together. Justin has not commented on the accusations leveled against Diddy, but his body language recently suggests a “desire to hide.”

Recently, Justin and his wife Hailey Bieber attended the launch of the newest product from Hailey’s skin care brand, Barrier Butter. Hailey wore a gray suit with a white shirt and red tie.
Her hair was styled up with some of it surrounding her face, and she wore thin black glasses. This is the couple’s first public appearance following the birth of their son, Jack Blues Bieber, in August.
Justin wore a brown plaid shirt that was left open, revealing the many tattoos on his chest. He also wears a suede hat with the front turned down, partially covering his face.
Body language expert Judi James told Mirror US, “Bieber’s body language conveys an air of vulnerability and a subconscious desire to hide. This isn’t a big change for the star, as previously he often walked behind his wife with his head bowed, appearing less friendly and confident compared to Hailey, but here the difference in character between the two looks very striking.” (Mirror/Z-3)

**Interview with Celebrity Commentator, Alex Reid, on Selena Gomez’s Charity Event Mix-up**
**Editor:** Thank you for joining us today, Alex. We want to discuss the recent incident involving Selena Gomez at her Rare Impact Fund charity event. Can you give us some insight into what happened?
**Alex Reid:** Absolutely. During the event, Selena was supposed to introduce Didi Hirsch, who is a significant figure in mental health advocacy. However, she accidentally called him ”Diddy,” the moniker of the rapper Sean Combs, who is currently facing serious legal issues.
**Editor:** That must have been an awkward moment for her. How did the audience react?
**Alex Reid:** It was indeed a tense moment. Selena recognized her mistake immediately and apologized to the audience. Her awkwardness was evident, but I think people appreciated her honesty and humility in correcting herself right there.
**Editor:** Diddy is embroiled in some severe allegations right now. Do you think this mistake could have larger implications?
**Alex Reid:** It certainly added an unexpected layer to an already complicated situation. Considering Diddy’s current federal charges, it wasn’t the best moment for that name to be dropped. However, I think Selena’s focus on the importance of mental health overshadowed the slip-up. The event was about raising awareness and funds, and that remains the priority.
**Editor:** That makes sense. How do you think Selena will handle potential backlash or jokes about this incident on social media?
**Alex Reid:** Selena has always been quite adept at dealing with public scrutiny. She has a strong fan base that supports her, and while there may be some light-hearted jokes, I believe she’ll handle it with grace. It’s also an opportunity for her to highlight the work Didi Hirsch does, and I expect she’ll redirect attention back to that cause soon.
**Editor:** Thanks for your insights, Alex. It’s fascinating to see how celebrity moments intersect with significant social issues.
**Alex Reid:** Thank you for having me. It’s always important to look beyond the headlines.
Ppreciated her sincerity. Mistakes can happen, especially in high-pressure situations like hosting a charity event.
**Editor:** Given Diddy’s current legal troubles, do you think this slip-up might have any larger implications, especially in relation to public perception?
**Alex Reid:** Definitely. The mix-up could be interpreted in various ways, considering that Diddy is facing serious allegations of sex trafficking and racketeering. Some may view Selena’s mistake as a reflection of how intertwined these figures are in popular culture, even if inadvertently. But on the flip side, Selena’s focus was meant to highlight mental health awareness, and she quickly redirected attention back to that important mission.
**Editor:** How do you think this incident will affect Selena’s reputation, if at all?
**Alex Reid:** I believe most fans will understand it as an innocent mistake. Selena has a strong following and is known for her genuine personality. However, it certainly puts her in the spotlight amid Diddy’s controversies. It’s essential for her to maintain her focus on the charity work moving forward to keep the narrative positive.
**Editor:** And what impact do you think this will have on Didi Hirsch’s organization and its mission?
**Alex Reid:** It’s crucial for Didi Hirsch to remain in the spotlight for the work they do. However, they might face an avalanche of media attention, linking them to Diddy’s situation. I hope this doesn’t overshadow their significant efforts in mental health advocacy. The key will be to keep the conversation centered on their mission and the vital work they do for suicide prevention.
