Jennifer Lopez Claims No Interest In Dating After Ben Affleck Divorce

Jennifer Lopez has been one of the most famous people on the planet for three decades. She has been able to dominate multiple mediums, and remains beloved by many. The downside to being so famous, of course, is that her life is constantly under a microscope. Lopez cannot go for so much as a walk without the paparazzi snapping photos and tying it into her recent divorce from Ben Affleck. She decided to get out in front of the paparazzi on Wednesday, however. Jennifer Lopez sat down with TMZ and opened up about the current state of her love life.

The singer and actress admitted that things have been tough since her split from Affleck. There have been pros and cons to becoming newly single, as she laid out. “Being in a relationship doesn’t define me,” she explained. “I can’t be looking for happiness in other people…. I have to have happiness within myself.” Jennifer Lopez didn’t mention Ben Affleck by name, but she did allude to the reason she felt the relationship had to ultimately come to an end. “You have to be complete,” she asserted to the outlet. “If you want something that’s more complete.” Lopez is happy with her decision, but she did not that it was not initially easy. She liked her divorce to having her “whole f*cking world” explode.

Jennifer Lopez does not yet know what the future holds. She does, however, know that she is not looking to get into a relationship anytime soon. “[I’m] not looking for anybody,” the singer announced. Instead of romance, Lopez told the outlet that she wanted to focus on herself and her relationship with her children. This would mark a pretty radical change for Jennifer Lopez, in terms of public image. She has one of the most notable relationship track records of any celebrity in her age range. She’s dated Alex Rodriguez, as well as Diddy, and been married to Affleck and salsa superstar Marc Anthony. Naturally, her feelings on Diddy have soured in the wake of recent allegations.

Jennifer Lopez has not gone on the record to discuss the Diddy controversy. A source close to the singer, however, told Daily Star that she’s allegedly “disgusted” with what she has learned. “Among everything else that Jen is dealing with in her life,” the source claimed. “She is aware and has seen what Diddy did. “[She’s] not going to address the accusations or take time to talk about them because it is not her story to tell.” Lopez and Diddy dated from 1999 to 2001. She began her (first) relationship with Ben Affleck the following year.

Diddy’s Ideal Trial Date Revealed In New Joint Filing

Diddy’s legal battle appears to be just beginning, as the mogul was arrested last month and hit with various charges. He’s currently behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn and has been denied release on bail two times already. Now, according to a new joint filing obtained by Meghann Cuniff, he’s looking to get his trial underway.

The filing from earlier today says that Diddy “intends to request a trial date in April or May 2025.” It also states that he plans to file “a motion for a hearing and other remedies related to unauthorized and prejudicial leaks of grand jury information.” The filing arrives shortly after Diddy was hit with even more disturbing allegations, outlined by attorney Ariel Mitchell-Kidd earlier this week.

Mitchell-Kidd alleges that her client was sexually assaulted by Diddy, his bodyguard, and another man at the mogul’s home. “[My client] was raped by Mr. Combs, his bodyguard, and another man,” she alleged in an interview with News Nation. “They invited her to Combs’ home and orchestrated this entire situation. The upcoming lawsuit outlines her traumatic flight to safety after that horrific night.” Mitchell-Kidd also alleges that an unknown oily substance was poured on her client during the alleged attack.

“She initially thought it was acid,” she alleged. “Her body went limp, and she couldn’t understand why. Earlier in the evening, she drank some water that tasted off. She believes the oil used during the assault might have contained a drug that rendered her unable to resist.” What do you think of Diddy requesting a trial date in April or May of next year, according to Meghann Cuniff?

50 Cent Reacts To Ray J’s Bizarre Diddy Rant

During the first episode of his new show The Reality Check News, Ray J went off on Diddy in a bizarre rant. “Diddy was my friend. What do you do when you never seen all this sh*t that people are talking about? Do you believe it? Everybody’s innocent until proven guilty?” he wondered. “Do you forgive somebody for taking somebody’s ass? There’s a lot of people out here taking from people. People are getting robbed of not only their money and their spirituality, they’re getting robbed of their womanhood and manhood. Asses are being taken in ways that nobody can explain.”

Ray J continued, claiming that he knows several more individuals in the entertainment industry who allegedly abuse their power. “I’m exhausted with the people in this industry that have power who are abusing the power. I can say a lot of names,” he explained. “I won’t today but I will soon.” He also brought up the fact that authorities reportedly found roughly 1,000 bottles of baby oil on Diddy’s property when they raided it earlier this year. For obvious reasons, the rant earned mixed reactions from social media users.

50 Cent Calls Out Diddy Accuser Thalia Graves Over Bribe Allegations

50 Cent is no friend of Diddy. The rapper has spent the last two decades criticizing the Bad Boy mogul. Some felt be was just hating, but it seems as though 50 was on to something. Diddy has become one of the most reviled figures in the music industry. It seems like every day, a new person comes forward with a gruesome new allegation against him. 50 is all for exposing Diddy. He does, however, want to make sure that the allegations are coming from an honest place. If not, the rapper proved that he will call people out.

Thalia Graves is a woman who has accused Diddy of sexual assault. She is currently suing Diddy and his head of security, Joseph Sherman, for allegedly raping her in 2001. Graves claims that she was dating an employee of Diddy’s at the time the alleged rape took place. That said, Graves’ story has suffered under close inspection. TMZ reports that they obtained a text conversation between the accuser and her ex, in which she divulges her plan to sue Diddy because “he’s the one that has the money.” The conversation also sees Graves offer her ex $3 million if he backs up her assault allegations. She reportedly asked the ex to attest that he saw footage of the rape.

50 Cent Announces That Graves Was Caught ‘Lying’

50 Cent took notice of this turn of events. He grabbed a screenshot from TMZ and threw it up on his Instagram with the caption: “un hun caught this b!tch lying ! LOL.” 50 Cent is not someone who has watched the Diddy case unfold casually, either. The G-Unit founder has made the Diddy scandal an aspect of his business. 50 landed an absolutely massive deal to produce a documentary about the scandal for Netflix. TMZ has put out several of their own documentaries on the subject, but Netflix undeniably draws more eyes to their releases, which puts 50 in an ideal spot.

Given how invested 50 Cent is in the Diddy case, it makes sense that he would want to double check the validity of the Bad Boy founder’s accusers. The sheer number of people who have come forward with an awful allegation has been shocking. The lawyer who publicized a hotline for Diddy’s alleged victims, Tony Buzbee, claims that the hotline received 12K callers in the first day. That is a lot of people to fact check. Thalia Graves has been one of Diddy’s most visible accusers, but the more evidence comes out, the more her case looks questionable.

Diddy Accused Of Sexual Assault With A Knife And Oil In His Home

More Diddy allegations have rolled in. The Bad Boy mogul was accused of orchestrating a sexual assault in his home by an unnamed victim. AllHipHop reports that the alleged victim was cornered in the home of Diddy by the mogul, his bodyguard, and a third individual. Furthermore, the allege that Diddy poured an oil like substance on her, which she initially believed to be acid. The alleged incident was recounted by the lawyer of the accuser, Ariel Mitchell-Kidd.

Mitchell-Kidd relayed the accusations made by their client. According to both the lawyer and accuser, Diddy coerced the latter into coming into his home. Once there, the mogul doused her in a substance similar to oil. While it was not acid, as the accuser initially thought, she alleged that her body reacted to the substance immediately. “Her body went limp, and she couldn’t understand why,” Mitchell-Kidd said. “Earlier in the evening, she drank some water that tasted off. She believes the oil used during the assault might have contained a drug that rendered her unable to resist.”

To make matters even more harrowing, Mitchell-Kidd alleges that Diddy wielded a knife around their client. “[My client] was raped by Mr. Combs, his bodyguard, and another man,” he asserted. “They invited her to Combs’ home and orchestrated this entire situation.” A lawsuit has not yet been filed by said accuser, but Mitchell-Kidd assured the courts that one is incoming. “The upcoming lawsuit,” the lawyer added. “Outlines her traumatic flight to safety after that horrific night.”

Diddy Files New Appeal To Be Released From Prison After Two Denials

Diddy has been behind bars since for several weeks. The mogul has been held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn since he was charged with racketeering and trafficking. According to TMZ, however, Diddy is still trying to make bail. The outlet reported that the Bad Boy founder issued another appeal to be released from MDC Brooklyn on bond. His legal team has filed documents appealing the most recent denial, claiming that he is not at risk for fleeing the country.

Diddy’s legal team previously offered a whopping $50 million bond, but it was denied at the urging of the prosecutors. The legal team, led by lawyer Marc Agnifilo, feel that the sizable bond amount ensures that Diddy will not be a flight risk. They also noted that the mogul has not had any female visitors besides the occasional family member. TMZ also reported that Diddy promised not contact grand jury members, and continue to look for a buyer for his private plane. To further sell the prosecution and the judge, Diddy said that he would agree to be subjected to drug tests on a weekly basis.

Both of Diddy’s previous attempts at posting bond have been denied outright. U.S. Magistrate Judge Robyn Tarnofsky denied Diddy’s initial attempt to make bond on the grounds of his alleged actions. “I don’t believe that counsel has the ability to control you,” the Magistrate ruled. “Given the very significant concerns I have, particularly because of substance abuse and what seem like anger issues.” The second attempt to post bail was denied by U.S. District Judge Andrew L. Carter. Diddy and his legal team tried to present a different array of guarantees, including GPS monitoring and visitor limitations. Unfortunately for them, the outcome was the same.

Carter determined that the offers made were “insufficient,” and ruled that Diddy must stay behind bars in order to ensure the integrity of the upcoming case. Marc Agnifilo has been the most vocal member of the Bad Boy founder’s legal team. After the second appeal was denied, he told reporters that he would not rest until Diddy was freed. “I’m not going to let him sit in that jail a day longer than he has to,” Agnifilo asserted. We will have to wait and see if Diddy’s third attempt at making bond proves successful.

Diddy And Cassie Perform Together In Chilling Resurfaced Video: Watch

Diddy and Cassie were together for years, but the information that has come out over the last year has radically altered how the public views them. Diddy has been accused of several harrowing acts by Cassie and other alleged victims. The Bad Boy founder has been charged with racketeering and sex trafficking. He also received widespread hatred after security footage leaked in which physically assaulted Cassie in a hotel hallway. The internet has been sifting through old Diddy clips ever since his allegedly darker side has come to light. And the latest involves Cassie.

TMZ uncovered footage of Diddy and Cassie performing together at a Dubai show in 2018. The couple take the stage, and Diddy performs one of his best-known solo hits, “I Need a Girl, Pt. 2.” Cassie appears to be all smiles as she dances with the mogul. Nobody suspected anything was wrong at the time, and in watching the footage back, it’s easy to see why. Two years prior, however, Diddy had attacked the singer during the aforementioned hotel incident. To make matters even more sinister, Cassie decided to break up with Diddy for good only a few months after this 2018 performance took place. Reps for the singer confirmed the timeline.

Cassie has been vocal about the trauma she allegedly suffered at the hands of her famous ex. She took to Instagram shortly after the hotel footage surfaced to clarify her stance on Diddy. “Domestic Violence is THE issue,” the singer explained. “It broke me down to someone I never thought I would become. With a lot of heart work, I am better today, but I will always be recovering from my past.” Diddy initially denied the allegations made against him by Cassie, but changed his tune upon the release of the hotel footage. He issued a much maligned apology in which he voiced regret over what he did.

Cassie is allegedly not alone in her experience. The singer is one of many alleged victims who have come forward and accused Diddy of physical and/or sexual abuse. Diddy’s lawyer, however, claims that Cassie will be one of the alleged victims who plan to testify against the Bad Boy mogul during his criminal trial. This claim arrived shortly after the lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, tried to turn the media narrative against Cassie and accuse her of being unfaithful to the mogul. He also alleged that Cassie hit Diddy with a cell phone prior to the hotel confrontation. Neither of these allegations have been proven.

Lord Jamar Alleges That Diddy’s Sexuality Got Him Fired From Uptown Records

Lord Jamar always has something to say. The rapper has become a regular on podcasts and interview channels. He has bold opinions and wild stories, and he regularly sticks by both. It was only a matter of time before Lord Jamar weighed in on the Diddy situation. The rapper claims to have heard stories about Diddy dating back to the early 1990s. He seem unsurprised by the wave of allegations leveled at the Bad Boy founder. In fact, he claims that Diddy’s sexuality actually led to him being fired from his first industry job.

Diddy got his start as an A&R at Uptown Records in the early 1990s. He worked under Andre Harrell, and helped to develop iconic R&B acts like Mary J. Blige and Jodeci. Diddy was fired from Uptown in 1993, in turn leading to the creation of Bad Boy Records. Diddy has repeatedly blamed his ambition as the reason he was fired, but Lord Jamar tells another story. The Brand Nubian rapper alleges that Diddy was let go because he was caught having sex with another man in the Uptown offices. “That’s why I heard,” Lord Jamar told The Art of Dialogue. “He got caught in a precarious act, doing something real baby oil-ish in the office.”

Lord Jamar implied that the other man involved in the alleged “precarious act” is also someone of not. He declines naming the man, however. “I don’t know,” the rapper stated. “I’m just saying, that was the rumor.” Jamar then went on to allege that Diddy is part of a so-called “Gay Mafia” within the music industry. He didn’t get into detail about who the other members of this alleged group were. He did, however, claim that the Bad Boy founder is not actually the one in charge.

“You just saw one of the gay mafia members. That’s who he is, that’s who Puffy is,” Lord Jamar told the outlet. “He is one of the members of the mob. He’s a mafia member. But he might not be the Don Carl, he is not the godfather. He is one of the heads of the family.” Jamar isn’t the only one who has claimed to have heard unnerving rumors about Diddy in the 1990s. The latter’s former bodyguard alleged that he heard a story involving Diddy and a teenage Usher, which you learn more about here.

Dame Dash Questions Whether Diddy Sold Spiked Ciroc Bottles To Fans

Dame Dash and Diddy were moguls during the same time period. They were two of the faces of New York during the late 90s and early 2000s. Dash has had his legal troubles over the years, but nothing can compare to what Diddy is currently going through. The Bad Boy founder is currently behind bars. He’s been accused of horrifying crimes by multiple parties, and is awaiting trial on federal charges. One of the allegations leveled at Diddy is that he spiked the drinks of the attendees at his so-called “freak off” parties. This allegation has led Dame Dash to question one of the mogul’s side hustles.

Ciroc was launched in 2003, and entered into a partnership with Diddy in 2007. The mogul became the face of the alcohol brand for years. This association has led Dame Dash to question whether dangerous things were being put in the bottles that were being sold to fans. “What’s crazy to me,” Dame Dash told America Nu Network. “Is, if his hustle is putting stuff in people’s drink. He made a liquor. Everybody was partying, and you don’t know what was in that drink.” The Roc-A-Fella founder clarified that he doesn’t have proof to support this claim, and is simply making a correlation that he finds to be concerning.

Dame Dash Claims That He Avoided Drinking Ciroc

“They saying homie was putting sh*t in motherf*cker’s baby oil,” Dame Dash added. “How could you trust that person to serve you drinks at such a big scale?” The mogul also recounted an incident from years ago in which he alleges that N.O.R.E. tried to get him to take a shot of Ciroc. Dash brought his own personal drink with him, which is something he’s done for years. “Now y’all can understand,” he noted. “Why I always wanted to make my own. I was taking shots of my own.” He then alleged that N.O.R.E. got extremely drunk from drinking Diddy’s brand.

Dame Dash is obviously best known for his affiliation with JAY-Z. He talked about JAY during the America Nu Network interview. He did not accuse the rapper of being affiliated with Diddy, but he did voice some concerns about what he may know. Especially given how close Dash and JAY have been over the years. “JAY’s supposed to be my son’s godfather,” Dame Dash asserted. “There are some levels that I know are dark, but again, I’m just hoping that it’s not that dark.”
