Jay-Z accused of raping 13-year-old girl with Diddy, as seen by unnamed star

Jay-Z is accused in a lawsuit of raping a 13-year-old girl with fellow music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs.

The process it was first submitted in October but did not list Jay-Z, whose given name is Shawn Carter, by name until an amended complaint was filed on Sunday, NBC News first reported it.

The plaintiff, listed as “Jane Doe,” alleges that Carter and Combs drugged and later raped her in turns while an unnamed female celebrity stalked her in 2000 at a Manhattan after-party after MTV Video Music Awards, according to the amended complaint. obtained by HuffPost. At the time, she was 13 years old, and Carter and Combs were both reportedly about 31 years old.

She claimed that Carter first raped her vaginally and then Combs did the same. Combs then tried to force her to perform oral sex while Carter and the woman looked on, but she was able to escape by running to a nearby gas station, the lawsuit added.

Carter was initially named “Celebrity A” in the lawsuit, and the woman was named “Celebrity B.” However, when the plaintiff’s legal team notified Carter of the lawsuit in an attempt at “mediation,” he filed an “absolutely frivolous lawsuit” and orchestrated “a conspiracy of harassment, bullying and intimidation” against attorneys for “Jane Doe” and others in an effort. to keep his name out of the suit, the complaint said.

“This effort was intended to scare the plaintiff and discredit her lawyer. That effort failed. Indeed, Plaintiff chose to file this amendment as a result of the egregious conduct perpetuated by Carter,” the complaint continued.

It’s unclear to HuffPost what lawsuit Carter filed. However, a “John Doe” filed a lawsuit last month against the plaintiff’s attorney, Tony Buzbee, accusing him of extortion. Buzbee denied the claim – calling it “frivolous” and an “aggressive attempt to intimidate or silence me and ultimately my clients”.

The female “Celebrity B” has not been named.

HuffPost reached out to Carter’s attorney for comment, but did not immediately hear back. However, Carter released a chilling statement via Roc Nation, which he founded, on Sunday night, denying the “heinous” allegations and going after Buzbee’s character and background as a Marine.

In his deposition, Carter claimed that Buzbee tried to blackmail him with a demand letter. Instead of accepting the alleged blackmail attempt, Carter said, he is now trying to “expose” Buzbee, whom he called a “fraud” and a “deplorable man.”

“My wife and I will have to settle our children, one of whom is at an age where her friends will surely see the press and question the nature of these claims and explain the cruelty and greed of people. I mourn yet another loss of innocence. Children should not have to endure this at such a young age,” the statement added.

Carter is married to singer Beyoncé Knowles and they have three children together.

Buzbee, who led an effort to file more than 120 lawsuits against Combs, did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment. He released a statement on social media that appeared to address Carter’s statement on Sunday.

“Despite a coordinated and aggressive effort that included harassing my children, contacting my clients and former clients to encourage them to sue me, contacting my colleagues or former employees asking if I had ‘abused’ them, and presenting to current my employees’ houses to harass them, filing frivolous lawsuits against me and my law firm, defaming me with outrageous claims to anyone who will listen and having mysterious people follow me and my family, I’m still that guy,” Buzbee wrote, alluding to an earlier photo of himself as a young Marine.

“I will not be intimidated or intimidated. People will go through this effort to discredit me and my clients and the truth will be revealed. I will also not allow anyone to scare my customers into silence,” Buzbee added.

Combs and Carter have a friendship that goes back decades, as documented through songs and photos together. During a 2023 conversation with James CordenCombs said Carter was the only person other than his mother who allowed him to call him by his first name, Sean. (Carter’s first name is Shawn. Although their names are spelled differently, they are both pronounced the same.)

Combs faces countless civil lawsuits — and a criminal investigation — which began to appear when his ex Cassandra “Cassie” Ventura accused him of rape and abuse in a speedy lawsuit in November 2023. He is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn pending a May 15 court date on his federal charges. He has denied many of the claims against him.
