Sean Combs is no stranger to sex crime allegations. The latest involves former adult film star Adria English. She is accusing the rapper of sex trafficking her at white parties at his residences.
Also known as Diddy or P Diddy, Sean Combs faces accusations of hiring English and forcing her into prostitution and sex work at his Hamptons and Miami residences. The ex-porn star filed a lawsuit against the musician in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on July 3.
English also named individuals and companies, including Vibe Magazine, Bad Boy Entertainment Holdings, Inc., and Penske Media Corporation, that she claims helped facilitate the parties.
What are English’s Claims Against Sean Combs?
English claims that Sean Combs demanded that she work at white parties at his residences. He forced her to partake in sexual intercourse with guests, including celebrity jewelry designer Jacob Arabo, between 2006 and 2009.
She also claimed that Combs’ guests required her to take narcotics and drink liquor laced with ecstasy. Her lawyer argued that she could not recall many details of the parties due to her altered state.
She is asking for damages to cover her legal fees and losses and “legal equitable relief” through trial by jury. She is targeting Combs, Vibe, and PMC.
Diddy’s History of Sexual Abuse with Ex-Girlfriend
This is not the first time Sean Combs has faced accusations of sexual assault. He was also accused of abusing his former girlfriend, Casandra “Cassie” Ventura. Cassie took legal action against Combs, and they settled the case out of court. The rapper’s lawyer insisted that the settlement did not indicate Combs’ guilt.
However, a video later surfaced showing Combs assaulting Ventura in a hotel. He took to Instagram to publicly apologize to Ventura. Still, he later wiped his account and sold his majority stake in Revolt, a music-focused television network he co-founded with Andy Schuon.
Justin Bieber Allegations
Justin Bieber recently went public about his relationship with Diddy after authorities discovered videos of the pair during a raid on Sean Combs’ home. The videos show them involved in uncomfortable discussions that took place when Bieber was just 15 and Combs was 40.
“Where we hanging out and what we’re doing, we can’t really disclose. But it’s definitely a 15-year-old’s dream,” Diddy says.
He then claims he has legal guardianship of Beiber and that they are going “full buck crazy.”
“Let’s just go get some girls,” says Bieber.
“Man after my heart,” Combs replies.
Subsequent footage filmed years later shows the two together, with Bieber looking uncomfortable when Diddy asks him why he hasn’t been returning his phone calls.
At least six other people have filed lawsuits claiming Diddy has sexually assaulted or harassed them since November 2023.
Attorney Says Sean Combs is Innocent
Despite the many lawsuits and accusations, Diddy and his lawyer claim the rapper is innocent.
“We live in a world where anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason and without any proof. Fortunately, a fair and impartial judicial process exists to find the truth. Mr. Combs is confident he will prevail against these and other baseless claims in court,” said Combs’ attorney, Jonathan Davis.
Diddy also spoke out, saying, “Enough is enough. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character and destroy my reputation and my legacy.
“Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday. Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family, and the truth.”
