After the release of a 2016 video of Diddy physically assaulting former girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, the rapper faces new sexual assault allegations.

Diddy is hit with a new sexual assault lawsuit and 50 Cent reportedly finds a home for his documentary. After CNN released security footage of Diddy assaulting Cassie in a hotel in 2016, New York’s Mayor Eric Adams told PIX11 News he’s considering rescinding the key to the city presented to Combs back in September. While Diddy and Cassie’s legal battle was settled, Combs has been hit with another lawsuit. In a complaint filed in US District Court in New York, Crystal McKinney claims while visiting Diddy’s recording studio, he gave her alcohol and a marijuana joint, which she believed was laced with a narcotic, or other intoxicating substances. She says Combs then led her to a bathroom, where he allegedly began kissing her without her consent, before shoving her head into his crotch, and forcing her to perform oral sex over her protests. Representatives for Combs, Bad Boy Entertainment, Sean John clothing, and Universal Music Group did not immediately respond to Billboard’s requests for comment. 50 Cent’s documentary series about many of Diddy’s sexual assault allegations may have found a home. 50 reposted a headline claiming he sold the series to Netflix with the caption, “NETFLIX wins the bidding war but if more victims keep coming out, I’m going to need more episodes.” Billboard reached out to Netflix, but they have yet to confirm the purchase.
