REVEALED: Diddy’s $10 Million Investment Helped Musk Secure $44 Billion Twitter Takeover
When Elon Musk finalized his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter, few knew that the billionaire had some unexpected allies behind the scenes. Among these was Sean "Diddy" Combs, who quietly invested $10 million into the deal, joining a group of wealthy backers that included venture capital firms and even Saudi royalty. This surprising revelation comes as more details about the acquisition emerge, shedding light on how the Tesla and SpaceX CEO secured funding for one of the tech world’s most talked-about buyouts.
Reports suggest that Diddy’s decision to back Musk was fueled by his desire for a say in the future of the social media giant. The music mogul, now a billionaire himself, saw Musk’s vision for Twitter as a promising opportunity to diversify his investments and expand his influence beyond the music industry. With ambitions of gaining more representation at high-stakes business negotiations, Diddy’s move signaled a broader strategy to make his mark in the world of tech, especially as more Black investors seek positions at decision-making levels.
Diddy and Musk’s relationship had not been entirely under the radar. The two were spotted attending high-profile events together earlier in the year, including Kanye West’s Donda 2 listening party and Dave Chappelle’s show at the Hollywood Bowl.
