Ashton Kutcher can relax.
The actor is not a target of federal agents’ investigation into Sean “Diddy” Combs, TMZ reported on Friday.
“This narrative has got to stop. Ashton has nothing to do with this,” one source alleged to the outlet. “Zero involvement. Zero knowledge of [Combs’] activities.”
The insider continued, “Ashton, like everyone else in Hollywood, attended a Diddy party 20 years ago.”
Combs’ infamous soirees have been under scrutiny since the rapper was arrested in September and hit with sex trafficking, racketeering and prostitution charges.
Kutcher, who threw a White Party with the embattled music mogul in 2009, made headlines last month when his “Hot Ones” interview resurfaced.

When host Sean Evans asked the “That ’70s Show” alum about Combs’ gatherings in 2019, Kutcher played coy.
“I’ve got a lot I can’t tell,” he said. “So, uh … Can’t tell that one either. I’m actually cycling through them. … Diddy party stories, man — that was some weird memory lane thing.”
Kutcher did, however, elaborate on their “bizarre” relationship.
The duo “became fast friends” after Combs forbid the “Punk’d” host from pranking him — although Kutcher insisted “everybody is on the table.”
TMZ reported Friday that the “Ranch” alum is “regretting [his] association” with Combs.
Texas-based attorney Tony Buzbee is currently representing more than 100 victims, 25 of whom are minors, in sexual assault cases against the songwriter.
On Tuesday, the lawyer claimed that the public will be “shock[ed]” by his list of alleged perpetrators and bystanders in Combs’ alleged crimes.
“We will expose the enablers who enabled this conduct behind closed doors,” he said. “We will pursue this matter no matter who the evidence implicates.”
Combs has continued to deny any wrongdoing via his legal team.
Last year, Kutcher and his wife, Mila Kunis, were slammed for the letter they wrote supporting convicted rapist Danny Masterson’s character.
The “Two and a Half Men” alum subsequently resigned from Thorn, the anti-sex trafficking organization he helped create in 2009.
Kutcher met both Masterson, 48, and Kunis, 41, while filming “That ’70s Show,” but he did not begin dating his wife until years after the series wrapped.
The couple, who tied the knot in 2015, are the parents of daughter Wyatt, 10, and son Dimitri, 7.
