Jay-Z Accused in Lawsuit of Assaulting 13-Year-Old Girl with Diddy in 2000

In a shocking new civil lawsuit, Jay-Z (Shawn Carter) is accused of assaulting a 13-year-old girl in 2000 alongside Sean “Diddy” Combs, a claim the artist strongly denies. The lawsuit, filed on December 8, 2024, alleges that the two music moguls assaulted the minor at an afterparty following the MTV Video Music Awards in New York. This new legal development adds to the mounting pressure on Diddy, who is already facing charges related to sex trafficking and racketeering.

Allegations in the Lawsuit

The civil complaint details that the young girl, referred to as “Jane Doe,” attended the afterparty with the hope of meeting celebrities. She was reportedly invited by a limousine driver working for Diddy. Once there, she was given a drink that made her feel disoriented, leading her to a room where she allegedly encountered Jay-Z and Diddy. According to the lawsuit, both men assaulted her while another celebrity reportedly watched. The victim claims that several other people were present at the party but did nothing to stop the incident.

In the lawsuit, it is revealed that Jay-Z had previously been identified as “Celebrity A” in earlier court documents related to Diddy’s case. The updated lawsuit now explicitly names him as a defendant in this grave matter.

Jay-Z’s Denial and Legal Response

Jay-Z, who is currently married to music superstar Beyoncé, has vehemently denied these serious allegations. Through his legal team, Jay-Z has accused the attorney representing the plaintiff, Tony Buzbee, of attempting to extort him. Jay-Z issued a statement through his record label, Roc Nation, stating that Buzbee had made a demand letter, which he deemed a calculated attempt to settle the case by exploiting public attention. Jay-Z emphasized that the accusations were false and suggested that the case should have been pursued as a criminal matter instead of a civil one.

The rapper’s statement went on to say, “These allegations are so serious in nature that I implore you to file a criminal complaint, not a civil one!! Whoever would commit such an act against a minor should be held accountable, would you not agree?” Jay-Z’s response indicates a strong desire to defend himself and clear his name in court.

Diddy’s Legal Troubles

While Jay-Z denies the claims, Diddy is already facing serious charges. The hip-hop mogul is accused of abusing women and coercing them into attending parties involving drugs, using threats and violence. He faces a criminal trial set for May 5, 2025, and has denied all allegations against him.

Beyoncé’s Role and Impact on the Allegations

As the wife of Jay-Z, Beyoncé’s connection to these allegations also adds a level of public attention to the case. With both Jay-Z and Diddy being prominent figures in the music industry, the entertainment world is watching closely as the case unfolds. If proven true, these allegations could have far-reaching consequences for both artists’ careers and personal lives.

The Legal Landscape

This lawsuit, which also involves alleged victims of Diddy, is part of a broader set of legal actions targeting high-profile celebrities in the entertainment industry. Attorney Tony Buzbee has also been involved in several high-profile cases against Diddy, and he stated that the plaintiff in this case never sought financial compensation, only a confidential resolution.

The legal process will continue to develop as both Jay-Z and Diddy are set to face court hearings in the coming months. With the criminal trial for Diddy scheduled for May 2025, the coming year will likely reveal more details as both artists fight against serious allegations.
