has addressed the rumors that he attended a -themed birthday party that made light of the sexual assault allegations against the rapper.
In a video posted via his TikTok account on Tuesday, October 15, the singer apologized and set the record straight.
“I’d like to come on here and apologize and address the fact that people are saying I had this whole themed birthday party,” Barker said in the video. “First off, I’ve not had a birthday party. My birthday party is next week.”
Videos surfaced last week that showed Barker, 21, attending a party that appeared to mock Diddy’s victims. This came after the singer went to dinner at Nobu in Los Angeles with his father, Blink-182 drummer , and stepmom, .
Landon admitted that he did eat at Nobu with his family to celebrate his birthday and later went out with his friends. He explained that a club promoter invited the group to a party with the promise of a table and bottle service.
Later, video showed guests holding light-up baby oil bottles of alcohol, an apparent reference to the 1,000 bottles of baby oil that police took when they raided the rapper’s Miami and Los Angeles homes earlier this year.
In another video from that night, a DJ could be heard saying, “We’re getting really freaky tonight. We’re getting Diddy freaky tonight.”
Landon explained that the club’s poor lighting prevented him from being able to tell what the bottles represented.
“Everybody’s saying, ‘Why didn’t you leave right away?’ That was because I didn’t know what was going on right away,” he said. “It was a dark environment and all I could really see was another table having flashing bottles being brought out. The bottles had flashing lights underneath them, so I wasn’t able to distinguish what they were. I’m just thinking they’re bringing out tequila with the bottle. I have no idea of what’s going on at this point.”
“I didn’t pick up the bottle once and I did not condone,” he added. “I just went to a club to celebrate my birthday and ended up in a bad situation.”
Lastly, Landon apologized to those he hurt by ending up in that situation.
“My apologies go out to everyone I hurt — this wasn’t my idea and I never wanted that to happen,” he told followers.
A source told People last week that the footage was from another individual’s party and that Landon was not aware that the bottles would be present.
“He, nor ownership, had any knowledge of the theme of the party, nor was he aware that the servers would be presenting bottles of baby oil that night for someone else,” the source said. “He did not participate in the baby oil service and refused to engage.”
