Beyoncé Warned Zendaya About Diddy’s ‘Ritual Parties’: The Dark Truth Behind Hollywood’s Secrets

In the shadowy corridors of Hollywood’s elite, whispers of power, control, and secrecy have long circulated. However, recent revelations from sealed court testimonies and insider accounts have brought these whispers into the light. At the heart of these allegations is Sean “Diddy” Combs, whose infamous “ritual parties” have become a focal point of investigations. Among the many shocking details that have emerged, one story stands out: Beyoncé’s warning to Zendaya about attending one of Diddy’s exclusive gatherings.

The Warning That Changed Everything

In October 2018, Zendaya, then a rising star transitioning from her Disney Channel roots to serious Hollywood roles, received an invitation to a private mentorship retreat hosted by Combs Enterprises. The event, held at a secluded Malibu estate, was presented as an empowerment weekend for young actresses. However, behind the glamorous facade lay something far more sinister.

According to a sworn statement from a former Roc Nation assistant, Beyoncé quietly intervened before Zendaya attended the event. At a Tom Ford afterparty, Beyoncé reportedly pulled Zendaya aside, placed a hand on her wrist, and said, “Don’t go upstairs, no matter what they say.” When Zendaya laughed nervously, Beyoncé’s expression remained serious. “Not everyone who goes up comes back the same,” she added before walking away.

The Malibu Retreat: A Cloak of Secrecy

Two days later, Zendaya arrived at the Malibu estate. Security was tight, phones were confiscated, and attendees were required to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs). A mandatory black outfit was provided on-site, a detail that seemed odd but harmless at the time.

The first day passed uneventfully, but on the second night, everything changed. Zendaya was informed she had been “selected” for a special “blessing ceremony” held upstairs. When she inquired about the ceremony, a host smiled and replied, “Only the ones who understand power.” Feeling uneasy, Zendaya excused herself to the bathroom but instead made her way to the front door. Security attempted to stop her, but Zendaya invoked Beyoncé’s name and walked out.

The next morning, Zendaya’s team received a cryptic message from an unlisted number, expressing gratitude for her presence and lamenting that she “didn’t feel the energy.” Zendaya never returned to the estate and resumed her work as if nothing had happened. However, something had undeniably shifted.

The Envelope and the List

Shortly after the retreat, Zendaya found a red envelope waiting for her in her trailer on the Warner Bros. lot. Inside was a single sheet of paper with a list of names, including hers. Her name was crossed out in red ink, while the others remained untouched. Confused and unsettled, Zendaya reached out to Beyoncé, who responded with a cryptic warning: “That means they knew you listened. Stay quiet, or they’ll start listening back.”

This ominous exchange marked the beginning of a chilling pattern. Over the following months, Zendaya’s career faced subtle setbacks, including a major cover shoot being inexplicably canceled. Despite these challenges, Zendaya remained silent, unwilling to draw attention to the events of that weekend.

The Leak That Sparked a Reckoning

In March 2023, a grainy 23-second security camera clip surfaced online, showing Zendaya leaving the Malibu estate on the night of the retreat. The footage confirmed her account of the evening and revealed another figure entering the house shortly after she left. The woman, dressed in black, has not been publicly identified, but industry insiders note that she has not been seen in public since late 2019.

The leaked footage reignited interest in the case, prompting Zendaya to file an official statement under protective order. In her testimony, she described the atmosphere of the retreat, the unsettling instructions to wear black robes, and the pervasive sense of unease. “I never went upstairs,” she wrote, “but I remember the hallway, the voices, and the silence that followed.”

The USB Stick and the Rituals

Weeks after the leak, Zendaya received a package containing a USB stick and a note that read, “You left the room, but the room remembers you.” The file on the drive was an unedited video showing a private room with candles and three women in black robes. A male voice in the background stated, “Number four didn’t return. We’ll adjust.” This phrase haunted Zendaya, as it matched language used in other testimonies related to Diddy’s alleged “ritual parties.”

Further corroboration came from Cassie’s unsealed testimony, which referenced “numbered participants” in similar ceremonies. Zendaya’s lawyer submitted the USB footage as evidence, marking a significant breakthrough in the ongoing investigation.

The Shadow of Hollywood’s Power

As more details emerged, it became clear that Zendaya was not alone in her experiences. The list from the red envelope included several other names, some of whom have since disappeared from the public eye. Beyoncé’s role in warning Zendaya has also drawn attention, highlighting the quiet ways in which those in the know attempt to protect others from Hollywood’s darker corners.

One particularly chilling detail involved a dressing room memo from 2018, recovered by Zendaya’s team. The document, marked “Participant Zed: Status Unrobed,” indicated that Zendaya’s refusal to participate in the ceremony had been noted and logged. This revelation confirmed suspicions that compliance was being monitored, even without formal agreements.

The Final Warning

Zendaya’s story reached a turning point when she received a voice note from an unknown number. The message, spoken by a trembling female voice, said, “I’m still in the house. I never left.” This haunting message, combined with the mounting evidence, compelled Zendaya to take action. She signed a declaration under federal protective status, ensuring her testimony would remain on record.

In a final conversation with Beyoncé, Zendaya asked, “Was there ever a list?” Beyoncé’s response was simple yet profound: “There’s always a list.”

A Call for Change

Zendaya’s courage in coming forward has shed light on a system that thrives on secrecy and fear. Her experiences echo those of others who have been caught in Hollywood’s web of power and manipulation. By sharing her story, Zendaya has not only protected herself but also paved the way for others to speak out.

As investigations into Diddy’s activities continue, the entertainment industry faces a reckoning. The revelations from Zendaya’s testimony and the corroborating evidence have exposed the lengths to which some will go to maintain control. For Zendaya, the message is clear: “This isn’t about me anymore. It’s about the next girl standing at that staircase.”
