Sean “Diddy” Combs once called his Chief at Combs Enterprises Staff Kristina Khorram his “right hand” – but a source close to the federal sex trafficking investigation into him believes she is more his “manipulator in chief.”
“If anybody is gatekeeper, Kristina would know everything,” the source added to The Post.
“High ranking supervisors” were flagged in the three-count federal indictment charging Combs with sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution on Tuesday, a day after the 54-year-old hip hop mogul was arrested by Homeland Security agents at a New York City hotel.

Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges, but remains in custody on judge’s orders after a $50 million bail bid was rejected. Khorram has not been arrested or charged with any crime.
According to the indictment, Combs is alleged to have used “certain employees,” including the “high ranking supervisors” to “carry out, facilitate and cover up his abuse and commercial sex [ring],” although none of his employees were named in the papers.
The supervisors facilitated sexual performances dubbed “Freak Offs,” according to the indictment, which included sex workers and “stocking the hotel rooms in advance with the required Freak Off supplies, including controlled substances, baby oil lubricant, extra linens, lighting.”

During raids at Diddy’s mansions earlier this year, “narcotics and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant,” were seized by federal agents.
“[The Feds] have gotten evidence from a lot of sources – recordings, text messages – names, texts from Kristina Khorram.”
In 2021 Diddy had posted about her on Facebook saying: “She’s been my right hand for the last 8 years and has consistently proven to execute and get s—t done. Don’t know how I’d function without her.”
In a lawsuit separate to the federal investigation filed by rapper Lil Rod in February, Khorram, 37, was described as the “Ghislaine Maxwell to Sean Combs’ Jeffrey Epstein” — a reference to the notorious sex offender and his now imprisoned right hand woman — and accused of having “ordered sex workers and prostitutes for him.”
Lil Rod, born Rodney Jones, also alleged in an amended complaint Khorram “required” Combs’ domestic employees including the butler, chef and housekeepers to carry a “fanny pack.”
This fanny pack would contain cocaine, GHB, ecstasy, marijuana gummies and a pink drug called Tuci – a combination of ecstasy and cocaine – so Combs could indulge in his “drug of choice” at any time.
Khorram, according to Lil Rod’s suit, also “knowingly and intentionally participated in, perpetrated, assisted, supported, facilitated a sex-trafficking Venture.”
As the Chief of Staff, Khorram, according to Lil Rod’s suit was “instrumental in organising and executing the [Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act] enterprise,” which he claims Diddy was running.

Also according to Lil Rod’s suit, Khorram had another employee, Stevie J, recruit sex workers to participate in the “freak offs.”
Lil Rod’s lawsuit is ongoing, but Diddy’s lawyers have filed asking for it to be dismissed.
“Mr. Jones’ lawsuit is pure fiction—a shameless attempt to create media hype and extract a quick settlement … Mr. Jones was not threatened, groomed, assaulted, or trafficked.
“We look forward to proving – in a court of law – that all of Mr. Jones’s claims are made-up and must be dismissed,” said attorney Erica Wolff.
Kristina Khorram joined Bad Boy Entertainment as a senior executive in 2013 and became a manager for Diddy, the “director, office of the chairman” of Combs Enterprises, according to her now-deleted LinkedIn profile. She was appointed Chief of Staff in 2020.
“Kristina might be cooperative,” the source said, referring to the federal case against Diddy. “At least if she’s smart she will be.”
