Diddy's alleged sex crimes don't surprise Sharon Osbourne: 'Where there's a lot of power'

Sharon Osbourne wasn't surprised about the sex crime charges musician Sean "Diddy" Combs now faces. Diddy remains in jail as he awaits his federal sex trafficking trial.

Sharon Osbourne didn't know about the alleged dark side of disgraced music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs.

Combs was arrested Sept. 16 and is facing federal sex crime charges.

"I never knew that side of him," Osbourne told paparazzi during a recent outing. "He was always so nice to me and respectful of my whole family."

DIDDY ACCUSED OF MOLESTING 16-YEAR-OLD BOY AT CELEBRITY-FILLED WHITE PARTY

"He was always very pleasant, beautifully respectful, never had a problem. But it's not like he's gonna ask the f---ing Osbournes to a white party, is he? So, you know what I mean? Different worlds and all of that."

While Osbourne claimed she hadn't attended the infamous parties, her daughter Kelly Osbourne has been photographed with Combs and Jay-Z at least once at a white party.

"It doesn't surprise me," Sharon Osbourne added, referencing the sexual abuse allegations against Diddy. "There's that saying, you know – where there's a lot of power, there's a lot of money, attracts a lot of pervs. And they think that they can do whatever cause they've got the power. It doesn't surprise me at all."

Judge Arun Subramanian scheduled Combs' trial for May 5. The prosecution expects the government's case to take three weeks to lay out, while Combs' legal team estimated needing one week to argue the rapper's defense.

The U.S. Attorney's Office also noted the investigation is ongoing and pointed to the possibility of a superseding indictment, which could lengthen the trial.

Combs was charged with racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution in an indictment unsealed Sept. 17. If found guilty, he faces a minimum of 15 years behind bars and a maximum sentence of life in prison.

Authorities alleged Combs ran a criminal enterprise through his businesses, including Bad Boy Entertainment, Combs Enterprises and Combs Global, among others. He used "firearms, threats of violence, coercion, and verbal, emotional, physical, and sexual abuse" to fulfill his sexual desires, according to the unsealed indictment obtained by Fox News Digital.

Combs and his employees would "intimidate, threaten, and lure female victims into Comb's orbit, often under the pretense of a romantic relationship. Combs allegedly then used force, threats of force, and coercion, to cause victims to engage in extended sex acts with male commercial sex workers that Combs referred to as, among other things, 'Freak Offs.'"

The music mogul has denied the allegations.
