LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: A wild claim about beloved comedian and host Steve Harvey is making the rounds on the internet. According to a YouTube video, Harvey fled the country right after hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs was arrested.
The video was posted on the CELEB LIVE channel on Wednesday, September 25, with a catchy title: “FBI Hunting Steve Harvey After He FLEES The Country On Diddy’s ARREST Day!”
The video took off like crazy, racking up nearly a million views in less than 24 hours. People were all over it, with more than 11,000 likes and over 3,200 comments. However, the whole thing is completely fake.
Debunking viral rumor about Steve Harvey
While the story may seem intriguing, the video does not furnish any substantial evidence to support claims that Steve Harvey fled the country or was involved in Diddy’s arrest. There is no verified information to corroborate these assertions.
It turns out that CELEB LIVE — the YouTube channel behind the video — has a disclaimer in their description admitting that their content might be “gossip, rumors, exaggerated, or indirectly beside the truth.”
The video runs for about 18 minutes with a clickbait headline saying, “He’ll Be Arrested Next,” and even features a photo of Harvey in an orange prison jumpsuit made to look like a mugshot.
However, the image is fabricated and is likely either AI-generated or photoshopped. The video does not provide any evidence that Steve Harvey left the country, nor does it establish any connection between him and Diddy’s legal troubles.
Steve Harvey deletes old tweet about Diddy
Amid all the speculation and rumors, one notable development that caught people’s attention was Steve Harvey’s quiet deletion of an old tweet regarding Diddy.
On September 22, Harvey took to X (formerly Twitter) and removed a post he had made in November 2017 praising Diddy for his philanthropic efforts. “My brother @Diddy is doing a world of good for these kids.”
Naturally, with the internet’s inherent scrutiny, people noticed the deletion immediately, leading to even more gossip and speculation.

Some individuals online drew comparisons between Harvey’s actions and those of other celebrities such as Usher, Megan Fox, and Pink, who have also deleted or deactivated their social media accounts recently.
While Usher later clarified that his situation was the result of a hack, the other celebrities, including Harvey, have remained silent regarding the reasons behind their decisions to clean up their online presence.
