Blue Ivy Carter narrowly avoided a run-in with Diddy’s twin daughters Jessie and D’Lila Combs at Rolling Loud Festival.
The 13-year-old, who is the daughter of Jay-Z and Beyonce Knowles, was in attendance at the music event—the largest hip-hop festival in the world—held in California between March 15 and 16.
This year’s lineup included headline performances from A$AP Rocky and Playboi Carti, with names such as Ski Mask the Slump God, Cash Cobain, and Destroy Lonely also on the bill.
Blue Ivy was spotted in the audience as A$AP Rocky performed his set on Saturday, as was the rapper’s partner, Umbrella hitmaker Rihanna.
Meanwhile, twin sisters Jessie and D’Lila Combs—the daughters of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, from his relationship with late model and late actress Kim Porter—were also around at the same time.
The pair are regulars at the festival, having attended in 2023 and 2024, as regularly documented via their shared Instagram account.
Pictures from the event show Jessie and D’Lila, 18, dressed in matching all-white outfits, draped in fur coats and matching hats. The pair can be seen smiling as they walk the festival grounds at night.
Mufasa star Blue Ivy, meanwhile, is pictured walking among the crowds as night falls upon the festival, accompanied by what seems to be a friend.
In another image, she could be seen surrounded by what looks like a group of friends outside the festival bathrooms.
The two parties’ near miss comes as Jessie and D’Lila’s father found himself at the heart of a lawsuit that also involved their brother, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, and North West.
Rapper Ye, 47, has released a new track titled Lonely Roads Still Go To Sunshine, which includes what he alleges to be a collaboration between daughter North, Diddy, Diddy’s own son King, and Jasmine Williams.
‘LONELY ROADS STILL GO TO SUNSHINE new song by PUFF DADDY feat. His son KING COMBS my daughter NORTH WEST and new Yeezy artist from Chicago Jasmine Williams,’ wrote Ye on X as the song was released.
It is believed that North, 11, can be heard on the track, saying lines which include: ‘When you see me shining, then you see the light.’
According to TMZ, the track was nearly axed because ex-wife Kim Kardashian, 44, did not want her daughter to feature in the song.
The outlet reported that Kim sent letters demanding a ‘cease and desist,’ after which an emergency hearing was held, which Ye did not join.
Sources added that Kim didn’t want ‘North involved in her dad’s recent behaviour’ or involved in ‘any of the drama surrounding Diddy.’
Ahead of the song’s release, Ye leaked a series of text exchanges, which he alleges to be between himself and Kim, in which they apparently argue over the use of North’s name.
‘I asked u at the time if I can trademark her name and you said yes when she’s 18 it goes to her,’ Kim appeared to write in one message.
‘So stop. I sent paperwork over so she wouldn’t be in the Diddy song to protect her. One person has to trademark!
‘We agreed when they were born I would get all of our kids’ names and trademarks so no one else would take them.’
Kanye then appeared to respond: ‘Amend it or I’m going to war. And neither of us with recover from the public fallout.
‘You’re going to have to kill me.’
This comes as Combs is currently at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn, New York, where he is currently being held by law officials on numerous charges relating to several alleged sex crimes while he awaits trial.
After being denied bail, Combs has been locked up since he was arrested in 2024 on charges relating to sex crimes, racketeering, and prostitution.
He maintains a plea of innocence, strongly denying all charges brought forward. His trial is set to begin in May 2025.
