Sean 'Diddy' Combs Speaks Out After New Sexual Assault AllegationsSean "Diddy" Combs has finally spoken out about the sexual assault allegations against him, vehemently denying the claims.
Sean "Diddy" Combs has finally spoken out about the sexual assault allegations against him, vehemently denying the claims.
A total of four lawsuits have been filed against the rapper and Bad Boy Records founder, alleging sexual assault.
In an Instagram post, Combs wrote: "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy."
"Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday," he continued. "Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth."
Early this week, a woman, whose name wasn't disclosed, sued the hip-hop mogul, claiming he and two other men raped her 20 years ago in a New York City recording studio when she was 17.
The lawsuit alleges that Combs, Harve Pierre, the former president of Combs' Bad Boy Entertainment, and an unnamed man gave the accuser drugs and alcohol and then took turns raping her inside Daddy's House Recording Studio, a studio owned by Combs and Bad Boy, in 2003.
Diddy's ex-girlfriend Cassie was the first to accuse him of sexual assault, filing a lawsuit in November in which attorneys for Cassie claimed she "endured over a decade of his violent behavior and disturbed demands," including repeated physical attacks and forcing her to "engage in sex acts with male sex workers" while he masturbated. The case was settled.
Combs was later sued by two other women who claimed they were sexually abused by singer.

Alicia Keys Musical 'Hell's Kitchen' To Open On Broadway In Spring 2024Iconic singer-songwriter Alicia Keys' musical "Hell's Kitchen" is set to open on Broadway in Spring 2024.
Iconic singer-songwriter Alicia Keys' musical "Hell's Kitchen" is set to open on Broadway in Spring 2024.
"Hell's Kitchen" is based on her experience growing up in the Manhattan neighborhood of the same name.
"Good things take time and for 13 years, I've been dreaming, developing and finding inspiration for a musical based on my experience growing up in Hell's Kitchen, NYC. Hell's Kitchen is inspired by my life, but it's not a biographical story. It's a story about family relationships and identity: Who are we? Who do we want to be? Who are we becoming?" Keys said, per The Hollywood Reporter.
She added, "The score features new songs that I'm really excited to get out into the world alongside many of my album releases that you know but you've never heard like this - rearranged and reinterpreted."
Written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Kristoffer Diaz, the musical is directed by Michael Greif and choreographed by Camille Brown.
"Hell's Kitchen" revolves around a teenager, Ali, who is eager to achieve her New York dream.
According to the official description, "Ali's mother is just as determined to protect her daughter from the same mistakes she made. When Ali falls for a talented young drummer, both mother and daughter must face hard truths about race, defiance, and growing up. Ali feels trapped, until the sound of a neighbor playing piano opens the door to an unexpected friendship and a radically different future."
"Hell's Kitchen" made its premiere on November 19th at The Public Theater in New York.
