Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, is back in the spotlight, and not for his music.
New victims drag ‘battered’ Diddy through the mud with abuse claims
The Hip-Hop mogul is facing new allegations from five more individuals who claim they were subjected to his abusive behaviour. This follows a string of lawsuits accusing him of rape, assault, and other violent acts.
These new claims, plastered over a Daily Beast exclusive, paint a grim picture of the once-celebrated artist.
The allegations detail a series of disturbing encounters that range from physical assaults to psychological torment.
The victims, who remain anonymous out of fear of retribution, have shared their harrowing experiences, which they say left them traumatised.
Diddy’s former employees from his brands Sean John and Blue Flame describe a toxic work environment where Diddy’s erratic behaviour and violent tendencies were a regular occurrence.
One former employee from Sean John recounted an incident where Diddy grabbed her face during a disagreement, yelling at her to stick out her tongue.
This was just one of many instances where he allegedly berated and threatened his staff.
Another ex-employee claimed that he was fired simply for making eye contact with Diddy and expressing disappointment when the mogul showed up late for a meeting.
He described the workplace as being ruled by a culture of fear, with long working hours and constant verbal abuse.
This isn’t the first time Diddy has faced legal troubles. Earlier this year, Diddy faced a lawsuit from businesswoman April Lampros, who accused him of sexual assault in the 1990s.
The lawsuit, filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, also names Bad Boy Records and Arista Records as defendants. Lampros alleged that Diddy assaulted her on multiple occasions, citing violations under the Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law and the Gender-Motivated Violence Act.
This lawsuit was part of a wave of legal challenges that have plagued Diddy recently. The accusations against him have only grown more serious and numerous, casting a long shadow over his career and personal life.
