Diddy has been the talk of the hip-hop world for the past few days. That began when a lawsuit filed against him by Cassie was made public and it was packed full of damning allegations. The suit claimed he participated in numerous indefensible behaviors. Those allegations put many in the rap world in a difficult position, with some choosing total silence on the issue as the best approach. Even though the case quickly reached a settlement it’s still a hot topic of discussion.
Now, former Danity Kane singer Aubrey O’Day is weighing in on her Instagram story. She clearly has some strong thoughts on the allegations being made against Diddy and is imploring fans who feel similar to act with their wallets. “16 + years of our loyal fans.. I ask you to respectfully consider this. ALL of your coins spent on us directly supported/support Diddy and everything he just did. Not a dig. Just a fact you should be aware of next time you think to stream of buy your fav’s music. If you want to help the systemic problem we CLEARLY were just whiplashed with. Look into/ or ask you fav artist’s what money actually feeds them so you can help them stay healthy and not fall victim to being dependent on any executive,” she captioned her post. Check out the pictures from her story below.
In the comments, fans have mixed reactions to her revelation. “One thing Diddy ain’t gone do is give in to Aubrey out of all the people he’s dealt with. He got a real problem with her. And I think it’s because she’s the only woman who actually spoke up to him. He can’t stand her because of it. SMH,” one of the top comments on the post reads.
Elsewhere in the comment though, fans are calling for action from Aubrey. “Aubrey baby we are tired. Sue him or shut up please,” another top comment suggests. What do you think of Aubrey O’Day’s post about money from Danity Kane sales going to Diddy? Let us know in the comment section below.

Aubrey O’Day stepped into the limelight courtesy of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ reality TV spectacle, Making the Band 3. But her roots dig deep into the performing arts. Her childhood interest in the theater and her undergraduate years in musical theatre at the University of California, Irvine nurtured them. Her transformation from an aspiring performer to a pop sensation is one for the textbooks. When Danity Kane splashed onto the music scene, O’Day was already a seasoned performer. She’s a master of many disciplines within the entertainment world—actress, songwriter, and reality TV star—and it’s this multiplicity that has fattened her bank account to a reported $5 million in 2023, according to CAknowledge.

Additionally, O’Day’s inclusion in Danity Kane was pivotal, propelling her into stardom with the group’s eponymous debut album in 2006. Hit singles like “Show Stopper” and “Damaged” climbed the charts, cementing the band—and O’Day’s—status. She carried this momentum into her solo endeavors, releasing EPs that flaunted her vocal talents and sass. Not content to be confined to a recording studio, she capitalized on her growing celebrity by participating in reality TV shows like Celebrity Apprentice and Ex on the Beach. This added layers to her public persona and fortified her financial standing, making her a household name beyond just music circles.

In dissecting the melodrama and the music, the Aubrey O’Day story paints the picture of a woman determined to leave an indelible mark on the entertainment industry. Her multi-faceted career, far from being a medley of disjointed acts, forms a cohesive, compelling narrative.

They were a girl group that stormed the industry after being constructed by Sean “Diddy” Combs, but Dawn Richard is giving insight into the trials of Danity Kane. Richard was a singer in the quintet that took over the charts after coming together on Making the Band. The reality series followed hopefuls looking for their big break. Diddy and his team not only chose each singer but they documented the process of whipping them into shape. All these years later, many of the ladies have spoken out against their time on the show.
Dawn Richard has continued her career as a solo artist and creative. She’s continued to release music, and in a new interview, she revealed the Bad Boy “didn’t believe” in Danity Kane. “We were a show,” Richard told FashionXRadio. “Puff saw money. He saw ratings. MTV, that was where the money was. Danity Kane was just a concept of something bigger. He had no clue we were gonna be that big.”

“I’ll tell you: when we first came out, they said only do 100,000 copies ’cause they not gon’ do more than Cassie. That’s what they told us when the first album came out. We sold 100,000 in a day, and they had to figure out how to get more units in by the time the week [ended]. They barely got it, and we ended up selling 230,000 copies.”
The host chimed in to say that the label was lacking and didn’t have enough product. “They didn’t think we would sell,” Richard added. “When were touring, they wouldn’t give us any money. So, we were sewing our costumes from Forever 21.” This isn’t the first grievance a Danity Kane artist has brought up against Diddy. Aubrey O’Day has been vocal about Combs, often lashing out about his methods on social media.
Over the years, there have been murmurs about some of Danity Kane’s reunions. Richard, O’Day, and Shannon Bex came together as a Danity Kane trio, but still, the ladies opted to continue flying solo.
