The incident surprised onlookers, as Washington, known for his calm demeanor, rarely engages in confrontations. However, he’s been known to address disrespect directly when necessary. Sources recall a similar instance back in 2003, when Washington reportedly confronted Sean “Diddy” Combs at a party after witnessing something that disturbed him. While the details remain vague, it’s noted that the party ended with Washington leaving in frustration.
