Cassie Reportedly “Sickened” By Diddy Minor Abuse Allegations & Baby Oil Jokes

October 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

At a press conference earlier this week, attorney Tony Buzbee revealed that he’ll be representing over 120 individuals who plan to take legal action against Diddy. They accuse him of sexual assault, abuse, and more. 25 of them even claim to have been minors when the alleged abuse took place. For obvious reasons, this has prompted outrage from the public, including some of Diddy’s other alleged victims.

A source recently told Daily Mail, for example, that Cassie is disgusted. The singer sued Diddy in November of last year, and they reached a settlement roughly a day later. “Cassie had heard mumblings about the class action suit but broke down in tears when she was informed of the allegation about the child,” the source claimed. “She is planning to take time away from receiving updates because it has sickened her, and she hopes that anyone who was hurt receives justice and peace of body and mind.”

The allegations involving minors aren’t the only thing upsetting Cassie these days, however, according to the source. They add that she’s hurt by the jokes and memes that have been shared about baby oil in recent weeks. For those who don’t recall, Diddy’s indictment states that 1,000 bottles of the substance were discovered on his property.

“She is hurt that people are making jokes and memes out of the baby oil because of what it could have been used for,” the source told the outlet. “It isn’t funny to her or anyone who experienced similar.” What do you think of Cassie reportedly being “sickened” over allegations Diddy abused minors? What about her reportedly being hurt by all of the memes and jokes about baby oil? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Kevin Hart Dodges Diddy Party Questions As Resurfaced Footage Goes Viral

October 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy’s ongoing legal battle and recent arrest have prompted the public to take a closer look at the mogul’s past. He’s not the only person under intense scrutiny these days, however. Those who’ve attended his parties, or otherwise associated with him, are also being called into question. Recently, for example, Kevin Hart was questioned about previously hosting one of his hotel bashes.

Entertainment Tonight spotted the comedian in West Hollywood earlier this week, grabbing dinner with his wife Eniko. “Hey, Kev. When you hosted for Diddy, did you catch any baby oil?” the paparazzo asked him. Of course, this is a reference to Diddy’s federal indictment, which revealed that authorities found roughly 1,000 bottles of baby oil on his property. While this revelation has resulted in countless jokes and memes, Hart didn’t seem amused by the question.

Kevin Hart Refuses To Answer Questions About Hosting Diddy’s 2010 Hotel Party

“You asking the wrong person the wrong question, man,” he said simply. The paparazzo persisted, however, proceeding to ask whether or not he thought the Bad Boy founder was “safe” behind bars. Hart repeated his answer from before, making it clear that he didn’t plan on discussing Diddy during his date night. His unenthused response arrives after footage of him hosting a Diddy party at a hotel back in 2010 surfaced online and went viral. The party in question was thrown to celebrate the Diddy-Dirty Money album Last Train to Paris.

As for how Diddy’s legal battle is going, attorney Tony Buzbee announced earlier this week that he’s representing 120 individuals who plan to take legal action against him. Reportedly, they accuse him of sexual assault, abuse, and more with some claiming to have been minors during the alleged abuse. What do you think of Kevin Hart’s response to being asked about hosting one of Diddy’s parties? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Diddy Responds To Former Adult Film Star’s Sexual Assault Lawsuit

October 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy and his legal team have spent a lot of time responding to various allegations against him, whether in his federal case or in other lawsuits. They directed their latest address to a filing from former adult film star Adria English, who alleged that he sexually assaulted her. However, this case got an important update recently, as her lawyers recently backed out as English’s counsel according to a statement from her ex attorneys Ariel Mitchell-Kidd and Steven A. Metcalf. They submitted this motion due to how they “fundamentally disagree” with the nature of the allegations put forth and how they presented them.

“[English] has provided conflicting instructions that make it unreasonably difficult for Attorneys to effectively represent English,” Mitchell-Kidd stated concerning Adria English’s allegations against Diddy. “There has been a breakdown in the Attorney-Client relationship between Attorneys and [English].” After this development, Sean Combs’ legal team reportedly issued a statement to AllHipHop. This not only references English’s specific allegations against the Bad Boy mogul, but her lawyers’ decision. In addition, they alleged that English’s lawsuit reflects false accusations against him from other suits.

“Less than three months after filing her lawsuit against Sean Combs, Adria English has been dropped by both of her attorneys after making completely fabricated statements,” a spokesperson for Diddy reportedly told the publication. “In papers filed with the court today, her former attorneys cited Ms. English’s ‘questionable antics’ and ‘undermining behavior.’ As we’ve said from the start, anyone can file a lawsuit without proof, and this case is a clear example of that. Adria English escalated things by filing false police reports and making baseless claims, using high-profile events as a backdrop to harm innocent people. No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won’t change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted, or sex trafficked anyone.”

Meanwhile, Diddy’s legal team will reportedly make a third attempt at bail, as they filed a notice of appeal to the court’s last denial of it. At press time, it’s still unclear if legal authorities have an answer or not, nor do we know what an alternative course of action would be if they face another rejection.

Jaguar Wright Alleges To Have Diddy “Freak-Off” Tapes In Her Possession

October 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Jaguar Wright recently hopped on Piers Morgan’s Uncensored show on YouTube (published Wednesday, October 2) to allege that she has footage from Diddy’s alleged “freak-off” parties. They discussed the scope of these alleged crimes, speculative theories about other celebrities’ alleged involvement, and how this allegedly goes further back than Sean Combs. “He’s got everybody on tape!” Jaguar Wright’s allegations began. “They all know it! See, this is the thing. Everything that I’m about to say to you is not my first-hand knowledge: it is my first-hand witness account experience. I was a sex worker, I was a dominatrix before I got my record deal. That’s how I know how the dark world and the sex world and the entertainment world run hand-in-hand.

“That’s why the movie Blink Twice is so important. Salute to Zoë Kravitz,” Jaguar Wright’s allegations continued. “The sex workers that I have worked with throughout the years, and continue to work with even to this day, have worn hidden cameras. I have my own tapes. I’ve seen what they do. The ritualistic behaviors. The drugging. Putting girls into suitcases. Dumping them in alleyways. It’s horrifying.

Jaguar Wright Allegedly Has Footage Of Diddy Parties

“And it’s all done under the protection of ‘This is going to be paid off. There’s another NDA.’ It’s terrible. It’s terrible,” Jaguar Wright alleged. “Everyone knows. Everyone knows! And every person that’s sitting there trying to act surprised knows very well. The whole point of this – like Katt Williams said when he sat with Shay Shay earlier this year. The whole point of this is for them, in a coordinated effort, to pretend like none of it is real for the public’s perception. But everyone knows what’s going on, and it’s been going on for years. It’s been going on before Diddy!

“See, people keep looking at him like he’s this Sputnik that came out of nowhere,” Jaguar Wright’s allegations concluded. “This is someone who was designed to be what he is. We got to stop making Diddys. And if we’re going to do that, then we got to go back. We got to go back to even further: the mentors of these people. Because Diddy was taught how to do what he does systematically, and Clive Davis has been his greatest teacher.”

Rihanna Laughs At Reporter Who Asks If She Attended Diddy Parties: Watch

October 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy knows everybody in the music industry. He’s been one of the most well-connected moguls of the last three decades. Anyone who has made it big has been photographed with him, or has interacted with him at some point. Rihanna is no exception. The pop icon was recently leaving a party when journalists approached her and began asking her about the Diddy scandal. She was asked whether she had ever attended one of the mogul’s alleged “freak offs,” and she gave a characteristically Rihanna answer.

The questions were quick and direct. “Did you attend any of P. Diddy’s parties,” the singer was asked while being escorted by her security. “Were you involved in any of the ‘freak offs’?” It was the second line of questioning that elicited a response. Rihanna couldn’t help but crack a smirk, and she can be seen and heard mumbling the phrase “that’s crazy” as she gets in her vehicle. The timing of her response was not lost on the journalists, who can be heard laughing behind the camera. The singer might find the whole thing crazy, but this question has seemingly become the norm for fans and journalists.

Rihanna Dismissed The Questions As Being “Crazy”

Rihanna and Diddy have not have many interactions over the years. At least, publicly. They have been photographed together at parties and public events. They exchanged niceties during the 2014 iHeart Radio Music Awards when they were both onstage. Diddy also commented on the domestic abuse that Rihanna suffered at the hands of Chris Brown. Unsurprisingly, the mogul’s comments have aged very poorly in light of the allegations made against him. “We know sometimes those relationships get ugly, you know,” he said during a 2009 appearance on Ellen.

People want to know who was and wasn’t involved with Diddy’s alleged crimes. Joe Budden, a man who gets paid to talk about other artists for a living, felt the need to set the record straight during his podcast. “For the last time, can y’all take me off the list of names that y’all think is on these tapes,” the ex-rapper asked. “I ran the jokes long but I thought the joke was a joke because of who I be.” Then there was Trick Daddy. The Miami rapper went on Instagram Live and threatened to beat up the next person who asked if he ever attended a Diddy party. “I’mma slap the sh*t out you,” he asserted. “They don’t like my kind at them parties.”

Drake Unfollows Diddy On Instagram Following Mogul’s Allegations

October 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Drake continues to exercise his right to unfollow celebrities on Instagram. The rapper decided to cut several notable figures off on October 1. Some of them needed little in the way of an explanation, like Metro Boomin and Kendrick Lamar. Others, like LeBron James and Playboi Carti, were surprising given the seemingly good relationships Drake had with them in the past. The 6 God decided to unfollow one more celebrity on October 2, though, and this one made all the sense in the world. Drake is no longer following Diddy on Instagram.

The Diddy follow was actually a point of discussion the day before. Drake fans and haters, both of whom are a passionate late, debated the meaning of the rapper’s continued follow. Diddy has, after all, become a pariah in the music industry. The Bad Boy founder has been hit with several federal charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering. More allegations against Diddy seemingly come out every couple days. Drake cutting ties is unsurprising. This is not, however, the first time the Toronto rapper has appeared to draw a line in the sand between him and Diddy.

Drake Has Had A Complicated History With Diddy

Following Diddy’s arrest in September, Drake posted a cryptic message on his burner account. It was a film clip from The Big Short (2015), in which Ryan Gosling’s character claims not to hang out with his co-workers. “I never hung out with these idiots after work, ever,” the character noted. “I had fashion friends.” Drake loves to use film clips to do his talking for him, as we all learned during the K. Dot battle. Drake and Diddy’s relationship has never been friendly, however, dating back to the early 2010s. Diddy accused the Toronto rapper of stealing the beat for the song “0 to 100 / The Catch Up” and the rumor goes that he slapped Drizzy outside of a club.

The Game alleged that Diddy tried to have a hit put out on the rapper in 2014. There’s nothing to validate this bold claim, however. The only time the Compton legend spoke on the matter was during a VladTV interview. What is verifiable, however, are the shots that Drizzy took at the Bad Boy founder on the 2016 song “4PM In Calabasas.” He not only borrowed Diddy’s flow and lines, but threw subliminal digs at him throughout his verses.

Diddy’s Alleged Victims Reportedly Continue To Come Forward After Arrest

October 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy’s legal battle continues, and according to TMZ, even more alleged victims of his have come forward in recent days. This is because of the mogul’s recent arrest in New York City, a source tells the outlet. Reportedly, the fact that Diddy is behind bars has made his alleged victims feel more comfortable speaking up.

The outlet reports that these alleged victims and witnesses are working with federal prosecutors, and providing them with any info they might have on his alleged wrongdoings. The source also revealed that the feds are fielding numerous calls from people alleging that they know something or have been a victim of Diddy. The news arrives shortly after attorney Tony Buzbee announced that he’ll be representing 120 individuals who plan to take legal action against the Bad Boy founder.

Source Claims Alleged Diddy Victims Feel More Comfortable Speaking Up While Mogul Is Behind Bars, TMZ Reports

During a press conference earlier this week, Buzbee explained that these individuals accuse Diddy of sexual assault and abuse. 25 of the individuals claim to have been minors when they were allegedly victimized by Diddy. Erica Wolff, an attorney representing Diddy, denied these allegations on his behalf earlier this week.

“As Mr. Combs’ legal team has emphasized, he cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus,” Wolff told Rolling Stone. “That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors. He looks forward to proving his innocence and vindicating himself in court if and when claims are filed and served, where the truth will be established based on evidence, not speculation.” What do you think of sources telling TMZ that more alleged Diddy victims have come forward since his arrest?

Lil Rod Claims He Will Name Diddy Co-Conspirators Unless Lawsuit Is Settled

October 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lil Rod saw the writing on the wall. The musician and producer filed a lawsuit against Diddy months before the mogul was indicted on multiple federal counts. He’s seeking $30 million from Diddy, but has been met with opposition. Diddy’s legal team has filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. But Lil Rod, born Rodney Jones, did not budge. In fact, he doubled down on his accusations. He threatened Diddy’s team by claiming to reveal the name of his co-conspirators if he wasn’t willing to pay up.

Lil Rod’s lawyer, Tyrone Blackburn, contested Diddy’s motion on September 30. He issued a statement to the court, according to AllHipHop. He noted that Diddy’s credibility is at an all time low. Diddy doesn’t have much to offer, or combat Rod’s heinous accusations. Furthermore, Blackburn noted that his client declined to name some of the people that have aided Diddy in his alleged criminal exploits. This was by design. If Diddy refuses to settle the lawsuit, however, Rod has no problem calling them out.

“Plaintiff has opted not to name these individuals in this opposition to the motion to dismiss,” the lawyer noted. “If, in their reply, the defendants decide to foolishly ‘look a gift horse in the mouth,’ then plaintiff will gladly supplement this opposition memo. And provide the court with the identities of the individuals.” Blackburn effectively dared Diddy to challenge his client, so that they can replead the case and make it even more difficult for the mogul.

“The plaintiff will gladly replead and include the identity of the defendant’s accountant,” he asserted. “As well as the account number which they used to commit their wire fraud. Blackburn also claimed that Lil Rod would be willing to provide the identities of agents who helped Diddy book international flights. “The travel agent who booked all of the flights,” he explained. “And rented all of the chartered planes that Mr. Combs and the members of the Combs RICO enterprise used to traffic prostitutes.” It’s looking bad for Diddy, and increasingly advantageous for Lil Rod.

Kevin Hart Shuts Down Reporter Who Asks Him About Diddy Connection

September 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kevin Hart has had controversies throughout his career, but he remains as viable a brand as ever. He’s one of the most successful comedians in the world, and is known to rub shoulders with just about every other big name in Hollywood. When it came to one big name in particular, though, Kevin Hart decided not to separate himself. The comedian was approached by a Daily Mail reporter and asked whether he had any affiliation with Diddy. He immediately shut down this line of questioning.

Kevin Hart was out and about with his wife in West Hollywood. The reporter approached him on the street and asked him to weigh in on the Diddy situation. In particular, his involvement in Diddy’s infamous parties. Daily Mail asked Hart whether he recalled seeing baby oil bottles at any of the parties he went to. This, of course, being a reference to the fact that over 1,000 bottles of baby oil were found at Diddy’s home. There was also an implication that Hart hosted some of these parties, which is not something the comedian appreciated. “When I hosted for Diddy?,” he fired back. “You’re asking the wrong person the wrong question.”

Kevin Hart Said He Was The ‘Wrong Person’ To Give Answers

The interaction didn’t stop there, though. The reporter asked whether Kevin Hart feared for Diddy’s life behind bars, and whether he felt the mogul was safe. Once again, the comedian avoided taking the bait. “Wrong person,” he asserted. “Wrong question.” He then walked away with his wife and his bodyguard in tow. The Daily Mail interaction takes place after footage of Hart seemingly partying with Diddy surfaced online. According to Radar Online, one video sees Kevin Hart hold a microphone and address the camera while a woman in a bikini is in the bathtub next to him.

The woman’s hair catches on fire after getting caught on a candle next to the bathtub, and Hart attempts to make light of the situation with a few jokes. Another video, which made the social media rounds earlier in the year, saw Kevin Hart interview Diddy and Usher in a bedroom. Diddy makes some suspect remarks about Usher, who was ten years old when he was taken under the mogul’s wing. Hart displays discomfort over the remarks and tries to gloss over them before changing the subject.

Diddy’s Baby Mother Dana Tran Appears To Support Him By Wearing “Love” Ring

September 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

While most celebrities are keeping quiet amid the Diddy scandal as fans react to its developments, some of them have spoken out against him or even defended him. However, not all signs of support came equal, and sometimes a simple piece of jewelry can lead to certain assumptions. Moreover, Dana Tran – with whom Sean Combs shares a daughter named Love – was recently spotted out with the little one on Saturday (September 28). What really caught folks’ attention was a ring that she wore, which seems to spell out the word “Love.” Of course, not only does this refer to their child, but also around how the Bad Boy mogul used the word as a marketing push for his Love Album: Off The Grid.

As such, a lot of folks believe that Dana Tran is supporting Diddy through this choice. However, according to a TMZ report, not all is what it seems. An alleged source with direct knowledge reportedly told the publication that she bought the ring herself, and that it’s an homage to her mother and grandmother. So it looks like nothing that Tran wears that says “Love” refers to her baby daddy. Check out the pictures by clicking the “Via” link down below.

This news comes as other famous figures like Master P address the situation. In this case, the New Orleans legend explained how he stayed far away from that path. “Because I realized I had the same friends I had when I started out,” he explained his aversion to the type of scene that Diddy allegedly involved himself in. “I think a lot of these people don’t realize that a lot of these people want to be your friend once you make it. My thing is, this about a family. We stronger together. Whatever we have, we gon’ share it with each other.

“A lot of people want to meet people and hang out with people,” Master P added while talking about the Diddy case. “But I realized that people really just want to be with you because now you’re successful, so I stick to myself. […] People show all the negative stuff, but look at all the positive things we’ve been doing all these years that don’t go viral.”
