While the rap mogul hopes that his Instagram post will motivate others to work harder, some people don't believe his claims about the roaches as many Twitter users troll him on the app.

AceShowbiz - Diddy (P. Diddy) made a shocking revelation in a new post on his Instagram page on Tuesday, July 6. The rap mogul shared in the post that despite his now-extravagant lifestyle, it wasn't always like that when he was young.

Diddy took to his account to share a video of him eating a mango while enjoying a view of ocean in his backyard. "You can be eating a mango with the ocean as your backyard too!" so Diddy said to the camera. However, it was the caption that caught most people's attention.

"One day when I was growing up, I woke up and there was 15 roaches on my face," he claimed. "At that moment I said hell no, I refuse to live like this. Work hard, believe in your crazy dreams… AND NEVER SETTLE! #LOVE."

While Diddy hoped that it would motivate others to work harder, some people found it hard to believe his claims about the roaches. "When Diddy mom find out he on the internet lying," a Twitter user wrote alongside a picture of an unimpressed Stephen A. Smith. "He lying. Roaches don't even ride 15 deep. It was maybe 2-3 at the most," another fan added.

"Diddy know he lying about them roaches. I'm dead," someone else wrote. "Diddy lying... I had roaches and never do they sit still on your face, roaches got places to be and s**t to do," another person opined."

Diddy has yet to comment on the lying accusations.

That aside, Diddy was recently urged by fans to come out after he showed support to Lil Nas X amid backlash over his BET Awards performance, in which the gay rapper kissed one of his dancers. "We are still waiting on you to come out of the closet! It's okay you are grown you won't lose a dime Sean Combs," one person said. "Come out 'puffy,' " someone else added, while a third chimed in, "You better come out too. We know you a lil some some."
