Diddy Accused of Sexually Assaulting a Minor, Kanye West Faces Drugging Allegations

Sean "Diddy" Combs is facing fresh sexual assault allegations, with six anonymous plaintiffs filing lawsuits in Manhattan federal court on Monday. The accusations, spanning from 1995 to 2021, involve claims of rape and sexual assault, including one from a 2004 Da Band photo shoot and another alleging the assault of a 16-year-old boy at a 1998 Hamptons party. These allegations surface as Combs already battles racketeering conspiracy charges, to which he has pleaded not guilty.

This morning, the Buzbee firm filed 6 complaints against #SeanCombs. I have seen 4 complaints by John Does and 2 complaints by Jane Does. The accusations are all violent and disturbing. One John Doe was a 16 yr old minor.

Meanwhile, Kanye West, now legally known as Ye, is being sued by his former assistant Lauren Pisciotta, who alleges West drugged and sexually assaulted her during a 2021 studio session. Pisciotta also claims West made inappropriate comments about wanting to have sex with his wife Bianca Censori’s mother, Alexandra Censori, while she watched.

What ties the cases together is Pisciotta’s claim that West’s alleged assault occurred during a session co-hosted by Combs, though no allegations directly implicate Combs in that incident. West’s attorney denied Pisciotta’s accusations, calling the lawsuit a “shakedown.”

These new lawsuits intensify the legal and public scrutiny surrounding both Combs and West. Several brands have distanced themselves from West following his recent controversial actions. Combs’ representatives have yet to respond to the new lawsuits. Both men, however, assert their innocence.

These cases come amid growing demands for accountability within the music industry, raising broader concerns about power dynamics and the exploitation of women.
