Jennifer Lopez walked away after being peppered with questions about her relationship with alleged sex offender Diddy at an autograph signing.
A new video shows the singer, 55, dodging the interrogation after she was bombarded with reminders about her past connection to ex Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.
The star has previously spoken about her ‘tempestuous’ and ’emotionally exhausting’ two-year romance with the rapper, 54, who she split with over his infidelities.
Jennifer had been attending the AFI FEST 2024 Unstoppable screening and Q&A in Los Angeles earlier in the evening before signing autographs on her way out.
Jennifer, who is in the process of divorcing estranged husband Ben Affleck, was met with personal questions about her link to Diddy at the signing.
In the clip, a fan moved towards the Hollywood favourite, and asked: ‘JLo, do you have any comments about Diddy and the allegations?’

Jennifer immediately stopped signing autographs and walked out of the door, with other fans shouting after her ‘don’t leave’.
However, she ignored their request to stay and left the event without answering any questions about her past relationship.
JLo and Diddy were one of the most high profile couples of the late nineties and early noughties, dating between 1999 and 2001.
Previously speaking on their romance, Jennifer said: ‘And we broke up many times before that, and got back together and broke up again, and nobody knew about it.
‘It was very tempestuous. Towards the end it was emotionally exhausting. It was good that I was young.’
Jennifer’s first husband, Ojani Noa, blamed Diddy for their split during an interview with Despierta America.
The 50-year-old actor reflected on the end of his relationship with the superstar as he alleged that ‘part of that divorce’ was the hip-hop mogul’s ‘fault.’
‘When Sony came and paid her the millions she got, there was Puffy [Combs], who was going to be one of the producers of several tracks on the first album On The 6, Noa told the outlet.
He continued, ‘I was in Los Angeles opening my restaurant and she was between Miami and New York working on the album.’

JLo and Diddy never married, however she previously revealed that the disgraced star did refer to their relationship as a marriage and often asked for a ‘divorce’.
She told Rolling Stone in 2001: ‘He told me many times, “I want a divorce”. I would be away a lot, or he would… he couldn’t go far, whatever, but he would say, “So, where do I send the paper?.”
The couple generally kept their relationship private and Jennifer explained she wanted to keep details about them ‘sacred and private’.
The questions came as Diddy faces a new lawsuit alleging sexual assault against a 13-year-old girl.
The same night Jennifer and Diddy were pictured arguing at a party together before leaving later on alongside his entourage.

The alleged incident is said to have occurred at a house later that night, but the timing adds a troubling layer to the evening’s events and raises questions about the dynamics of Diddy and Jennifer’s relationship during a time now overshadowed by serious allegations.
The couple stayed together for another five months, eventually splitting in February 2001.
The new legal filing seen by DailyMail.com claims Diddy had allegedly ‘aggressively approached’ the young girl with a ‘crazed look in his eyes’ before sexually assaulting her.
She claims an unidentified male celebrity also raped her while Diddy and an unnamed female celebrity watched. There is no suggestion this woman was Jennifer.
Diddy has denied the allegations. His attorneys told DailyMail.com he ‘never sexually assaulted anyone’ and said the most recent ‘barrage of filings’ were nothing but ‘clear attempts to garner publicity’.
