Baskin noted that the tiger was stressed and that caused it to pace and breath heavily from its mouth. She said that both sides also pointed to the tiger not being comfortable in the small cage.

Baskin added that she felt the action of bringing the tiger to the party was a "slap in the face of mother nature." Her train of thoughts also had her double-checking if the tiger was illegally brought in.

An insider also opened up on an incident during the occasion. The informant shared that a dancer's outfit caught fire. There were dancers on a table wearing feathery outfits and one of them strayed too close to a candle.

Her dress caught fire, but it was immediately doused so the incident could not have been caught on camera. The source relayed that the dancer was left with only her thong.

Another occurrence that raised eyebrows was Diddy's spectacular rapport with City Girls rapper Yung Miami. The mainstream rapper who stepped out in a red evening dress was by his side.

The pair were said to have held hands and danced together. Diddy also posted a photo of them holding hands on his Instagram page, and Yung Miami reposted the same picture, fueling rumors that they might be dating.
