She’s Not Taking the Stand, But Eyes Are Still On Her
If you’ve been waiting for Aubrey O’Day’s day to take the stand, wait no longer — cause it won’t be happening.
The former Danity Kane singer made it crystal clear during a chat with T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach that she’s not testifying in the Diddy sex trafficking trial currently unfolding in New York.
“I posted on my Instagram that I was here in New York and enjoying myself because I wanted to make it clear to everyone that I am not here testifying,” Aubrey said on their new podcast.

She may not be headed to court, but that doesn’t mean she’s been completely out of the loop. Aubrey admitted that she was contacted by Homeland Security and sat down for a meeting. While she stayed tight-lipped about the details, that little nugget got folks buzzing. Could things shift later? Only time will tell.
Why People Were Expecting Aubrey O’Day To Testify
Let’s not act brand new — Aubrey O’Day’s name has been swirling in the mix when it comes to Diddy’s alleged behavior.
She was signed to Bad Boy Records, lived through that Danity Kane era under Diddy’s label, and has previously hinted at her own experiences while working with him. Over the years, she’s spoken up about toxic industry environments and controlling behavior, without always naming names — but folks could read between the lines.
When the allegations against Diddy broke, many believed Aubrey would be one of the first to come forward in court. Her previous statements online and in interviews had made her a vocal figure in the conversation about accountability in the music industry — especially for women.
Some even speculated she had damning details that could sway the case. So when she popped up in New York this week, people naturally assumed she was about to take the stand and go all the way in.
Diddy’s Trial Is Already Explosive Without Aubrey
Whether Aubrey testifies or not, this trial is staying in the headlines.
The court officially kicked off proceedings this Monday, and it’s already been intense. One of the biggest moments so far? Cassie — Diddy’s ex-girlfriend — taking the stand and dropping bombshells. According to her testimony, she was allegedly forced into humiliating and violent situations while under Diddy’s control.
It’s the kind of testimony that had the courtroom silent. Shocking. Emotional. Raw. Cassie didn’t hold back, and her words painted a dark picture of what she says went down behind closed doors. That’s what makes Aubrey’s absence even more notable — she might have added more heat to an already blazing fire.
Charges Diddy Is Facing — And What’s At Stake
Sean “Diddy” Combs is currently facing some of the most serious charges of his life.
He’s been charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution — allegations that stretch far beyond just celebrity gossip. These are federal-level offenses, and if convicted, Diddy could be looking at 15 years to life in prison.
He has vehemently denied all charges and claims the accusations are baseless and fueled by people trying to take him down.
But that’s not stopping the feds. Homeland Security, the FBI, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office have all gotten involved. And with multiple alleged victims already speaking out — and others like Aubrey being contacted — this trial is likely to drag on and get even more intense.
