Sean Combs Accused of Assaulting, Drugging, Dousing Adult Male Entertainer in Baby Oil

Sean Combs Accused of Assaulting, Drugging, Dousing Adult Male Entertainer in Baby Oil

Yahoo05-02-2025

An adult male entertainer has sued Sean 'Diddy' Combs, alleging the Bad Boy Records founder sexually assaulted him, drugged, and 'coerced' him into commercial sex acts with various women over the course of five years, all the while dangling the promise of a potential music career.
The Las Vegas man, who sued under a John Doe pseudonym in the Southern District of New York on Tuesday, claims that Combs would insist that he'd douse himself in baby oil, which made him feel disoriented and alarmed, according to the lawsuit obtained by Rolling Stone.

If Doe or the woman expressed any discomfort or reluctance to perform the way Combs wanted, the mogul would become 'enraged' at 'any sign of hesitation or defiance,' the lawsuit claims. The 55-year-old would allegedly scream and curse, throw objects around the room, and raise his fists as if he were going to hit the man.
Trapped in a 'vortex of exploitation and fear,' the man claims Combs also made threats against his life and blackmailed him with secretly recorded videos of the sexual encounters. After his final meeting with Combs in November 2012, the man says he 'experienced a strong and unrelenting desire to come forward about Combs' abuse, but was deterred by his fears that Combs would follow through with his threats to release the compromising videos of Plaintiff and irreparably harm Plaintiff's reputation.'
'Combs dehumanized Plaintiff and reduced him to a mere object for Combs' own amusement and to satisfy his own sexual fetishes,' the suit claims. 'Combs gravely exploited Plaintiff, effectively imprisoning him and controlling him through surreptitious surveillance and filming.'
In addition to Doe's complaint, two more women sued Combs on Tuesday, alleging they both had been drugged, trapped in spaces, and forced to engage in sexual acts with Combs' associates in the Nineties.
When approached for comment by Rolling Stone, Combs' legal team sent over a previously issued statement. 'No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won't change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex-trafficked anyone — man or woman, adult or minor,' the statement read. 'Fortunately, a fair and impartial judicial process exists to separate fact from fiction, and Mr. Combs is confident that he will prevail in court.'
Doe's lawsuit did not specifically mention 'freak-offs' or 'Wild King Nights' that Combs' ex-partner Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura and former assistant Phil Pines described in their own respective sexual abuse lawsuits against Combs. However, the descriptions around the sexual encounters' organization and events resemblance details from both Ventura and Pines' lawsuits.
Last week, a Rolling Stone investigation included an account from a male sex worker who detailed what would allegedly occur during freak-offs. Nathan, who was identified by a pseudonym for safety reasons, recalled being summoned to 'lavish' hotel rooms in New York, Miami, and Los Angeles, surrendering his phone, undressing, and swiping a bottle of baby oil from a tub of hot water. 'I don't use baby oil to this day because of all the baby oil I used to put on me,' he said. 'The hotel rooms were freezing. The baby oil was warm, so if you were cold and your clothes were locked in another room, the baby oil kept you warm.'
In Tuesday's filing, Doe claims he first met Combs while he worked as a popular and in-demand adult entertainer in Las Vegas in 2007. He alleges he was booked through his agency to perform a strip show at a hotel for an unnamed client. Doe claims the client was Combs. After a few bookings through the man's agency, the man alleges that Combs wanted to bypass the agency and book him directly. Knowing Doe's desire to be a musician, Combs allegedly offered to listen to his music and expressed a willingness to help Doe advance his career. 'I can make you a millionaire overnight,' Combs allegedly told Doe.
For the next few years, the man claims Combs and his team members would book him directly, flying him around the country to various hotel rooms and Combs' own residences. Combs would always be with a woman, the man claims, but sometimes there were other men and women present. The man allegedly had to strip off his clothes, leaving them and his phone in another room for the sometimes days-long encounters.
Almost immediately, Combs allegedly pushed Doe's boundaries. The man claims that after he was instructed to douse himself in baby oil, he would suddenly feel disoriented, unusually sleepy, and 'alarmed by the sensation of being trapped in his own body.' Combs would allegedly push him to apply more baby oil, becoming furious if he refused to put more on. 'You're getting a little dull – rub some more baby oil on yourself,' Combs would purportedly say. 'On multiple occasions, Combs squirted large amounts of baby oil onto Plaintiff's skin, coating his skin so heavily that it dripped off of his body,' the lawsuit alleges. The man claims he later suspected there was a link between the baby oil and his feeling of sudden drowsiness.
While he was in this disoriented state, 'Combs instructed him to perform acts that were outside the scope of the agreed-upon performance and limitations set by Plaintiff and his agency,' the lawsuit claims. 'Combs instructed Plaintiff to engage in acts such as masturbating while Combs and the woman engaged in sexual intercourse.'
'During most encounters, Combs demanded that Plaintiff engage in sexual activity with the woman who was present,' the lawsuit continues. 'This included touching her breasts, vagina, and buttocks, and engaging in vaginal intercourse. Combs often positioned his face directly between Plaintiff's and the woman's genitals to closely monitor and ensure they were engaging in penetration.'
If the man did not immediately comply with Combs' demands, Combs would grab Doe 'by the shaft of his penis, causing him physical pain, and forced Plaintiff's penis into the woman's vagina,' the lawsuit claims. 'On some occasions, Combs touched and stroked Plaintiff's penis.' The man claims he believes Combs sexually assaulted him on occasions when he'd wake up and discover semen in his anus.
The man accuses Combs of covertly drugging him, alleging that on several occasions he found that his 'penis involuntarily erect even though he was not sexually aroused.' He claims that Combs admitted to putting Viagra in his drink.
The two Jane Does also accused Combs of sexual misconduct, claiming they were both in the hip-hop scene in the late Eighties and Nineties. They allege that during parties where Combs was present, they were drugged, held against their will, and sexually assaulted by some of Combs' associates as he watched.
The three new complaints bring the total civil lawsuits against Combs to more than 45, the vast majority accusing the 55-year-old of sexual misconduct. Combs' team has issued a broad denial of all the claims. 'As we have repeatedly said, it is unfortunate that anyone can file a complaint even without any proof,' they said. Combs is also facing 15 years to life in prison after he was arrested and charged with sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy in September. He pleaded not guilty to the charges and a trial date is set for this May.

Shakira laments 'constant fear' faced by immigrants: 'It's painful to see'

Shakira laments 'constant fear' faced by immigrants: 'It's painful to see' Show Caption Hide Caption Shakira cancels Boston concert hours before showtime Hours before doors opened, ticket seller Live Nation announced that the Shakira and Jason Aldean and Brooks & Dunn concert had been cancelled. Cover Media Shakira has conquered the world with her music, but she hasn't forgotten her raíces. The Colombian pop star, 48, reflected on her immigrant background, as well as the impact of the current political climate on immigrant communities, in an interview with the BBC published June 12. The singer, who started her music career as a teenager in her native Colombia, moved to the United States in the late 1990s to raise her musical profile. "I was only 19 when I moved to the U.S., like many other Colombian immigrants who come to this country looking for a better future," Shakira told the British outlet. "And I remember I was surrounded by Spanish-English dictionaries and synonym dictionaries — because back in the day, I didn't really have Google or ChatGPT to (help). So, it was all very precarious." The Grammy-winning songstress, known for her bilingual dance hits, also got candid on the tensions faced by many immigrants amid the Trump administration's sweeping deportation efforts, which have sparked nationwide protests. "It means living in constant fear. And it's painful to see," she said. Earlier this month, several demonstrations erupted across Los Angeles in response to a handful of immigration raids. The federal invasions, carried out by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, took place in several parts of the city as part of a directive from President Donald Trump to find immigrants living in the United States without legal status. The White House previously set a goal of removing 1 million people annually, making good on Trump's campaign promise to conduct the largest deportation operation in history. Shakira interview: Singer talks tour, special guests and prioritizing her kids After small protests against the raids on June 6, Trump took several swift actions, including calling in the 4,000 California National Guard troops and 700 Marines, which drew ire — and at least one lawsuit — from state officials who accused the president of stoking tension and escalating unrest. "Now, more than ever, we have to remain united," Shakira continued. "Now, more than ever, we have to raise our voices and make it very clear that a country can change its immigration policies, but the treatment of all people must always be humane." Shakira vows to 'always fight' with 'my immigrant brothers and sisters' in Grammys speech This isn't the first time Shakira has shown her support for immigrant communities. While attending the 67th annual Grammy Awards in February, Shakira gave a heartfelt shout-out to her fellow immigrants while accepting the award for best Latin pop album. "I want to dedicate this award to all my immigrant brothers and sisters in this country," she said. "You are loved, you are worth it, and I will always fight with you."

Sabrina Carpenter's New Album Cover Art Is a Rorschach Test

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Sabrina Carpenter is no stranger to making playful innuendos that send jaws dropping. The Grammy winner did it with her first NSFW "Nonsense" outro, during the "Please Please Please" music video, and on-stage with one "Juno" position after another. This is classic Carpenter conduct: tongue-in-cheek lyrics, campy corsets and négligées, all catered toward the female gaze. But on June 11, she outdid herself. Less than one year after Short n' Sweet debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 charts, Carpenter announced the forthcoming August 29 release of her new album, Man's Best Friend. The moment she shared the album cover, it immediately started a capital-D discourse online. With help from her stylist, Jared Ellner, Carpenter posed on all fours in an archival Dolce & Gabbana little black dress and sky-high pumps, while an unidentified man pulled her by her blonde bombshell hair. I immediately drafted a text to my sister (an equally enthusiastic Carpenter fan) to gush over the impending new album. But I also had a question: "Did you see the cover photo?" My first instinct was to interrogate the image's motive. When misogyny is at an all-time high and women's rights are constantly on the line, should a pop star produce this sort of imagery? I thought I'd find it more empowering to see her as the tugger, not the "tuggee." I'm not the only one—one commenter on Instagram wrote, "This just set us back about 5 decades," while another shared, "Excited for new music but this cover is a big no from me, dawg. In this political climate?? Girls, get up!" Glasgow Women's Aid, a Scotland-based advocacy organization for women experiencing domestic abuse, said it's a "throwback to tired tropes that reduce women to pets, props, and possessions, and promote an element of violence and control." Then, The Telegraph chimed in with a pearl-clutching headline: "Sabrina Carpenter's over-sexed, degrading new album cover has gone too far." But as a longtime Carpenter fan, I believe she thought long and hard (no pun intended) before pressing "Post." The "Espresso" singer knew this would trigger important conversations about agency and the female gaze—like most of her music and accompanying outfits do. The album title is clearly a play on words, for starters. Instead of outright calling her album, B*tch, she's cheekily referencing the word for a female dog. Some TikTokers believe the title track, "A Man's Best Friend" might even reference a man calling her a "b*tch," hence the name. Metaphors and wordplay are a trademark in the Carpenterverse. From my POV, the entire package is an ironic response to the slut-shaming she's received for dressing, speaking, and singing in a way the internet dubs "provocative." Also, who says we've seen the whole cover? What if it's her hand after all? Pardon me, my inner Swiftie is coming out. In the words of Beyoncé, "you know you that b*tch when you cause all this conversation." Is the photo controversial? Yes, but so is Carpenter. She literally wrote the lyrics, "I'm so f*ckin' horny," in Short n' Sweet's "Juno." Causing a stir by embracing her sexuality is the backbone of her brand, and at this point, she's a pro at it. If you think she's appealing to the male gaze, you obviously don't listen to Carpenter's music. And if you do listen, you need to listen harder. In songs like "because I liked a boy," "lie to girls," and "Sharpest Tool," her lyrics challenge various patriarchal assumptions placed on women. In "because I liked a boy," she sings, "I'm a home-wrecker, I'm a slut / I got death threats filling up semi-trucks / Tell me who I am, guess I don't have a choice / All because I liked a boy." "[Women] just have to grow thicker skin, but they don't have to learn how to shut their mouths," Carpenter says in a recent Rolling Stone interview in response to online scrutiny. "I've never lived in a time where women have been picked apart more, and scrutinized in every capacity." On the surface, her lyrics, choreography, and costumes might appear over-sexualized, but this aesthetic is a gateway to empowerment. She's hardly the first woman to dress provocatively in service of her art. Carpenter's character frequently references vintage icons like Marilyn Monroe, Brigitte Bardot, Dolly Parton, Betty Grable, and Rita Hayworth, all of whom similarly wielded sex appeal as agency. And where is this criticism when modern male artists have delivered explicit covers—with nary a nuance in sight? Back in 2013, Talk Dirty showcased a nearly-naked Jason Derulo with a woman's hands caressing his lower stomach. More recently, The Dare's "Girls" record depicts women in sexually-suggestive positions. Not only is Sabrina Carpenter's music for the girls, the star's entire aura is—and it's nothing new. 'Femininity is something that I've always embraced,' Carpenter shared in an Oct. 2024 interview with Time. 'And if right now that means corsets and garter belts and fuzzy robes or whatever, then that's what that means.' Since early 2023, Carpenter's vibe has leaned '60s pin-up, complete with micro-mini skirts, hot pants, and bras as tops. On the Short n' Sweet tour, she opened up each of the 72 shows in a bejeweled bustier, plus lacy garter tights, both custom-made by Victoria's Secret. During her performance at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, she made out with an alien in even more custom Victoria's Secret lingerie. Fast-forward to the 2025 Grammys, and she took center stage to perform—and take home two trophies—in another barely-there bodysuit from Dolce & Gabbana. To no surprise, Carpenter's Man's Best Friend era is already off to a sensual start—just as I knew it would be. In the "Manchild" music video (the new record's first single), she bared it all in cheeky Daisy Dukes, a vintage Valentino bra, and a sheer Chrome Hearts skirt. Carpenter chose to wear these outfits in homage to pin-up culture, because that's how she connects to her femininity. So, Carpenter is on track to maintain her spicy status, and what about it? I say, let women wear whatever they want, whenever, and however they want. For Carpenter, if that's a skin-tight LBD on her knees, great. I'll cheer her on every time.

Sabrina Carpenter Got Real About What She Learned From The Olivia Rodrigo "Drivers License" Drama

It feels like an eternity since Olivia Rodrigo released her breakthrough single "Drivers License." (It's been about four and a half years.) If you remember all the hubbub behind the song, you probably also recall plenty of speculation that the song — especially the lyric 'You're probably with that blonde girl, who always made me doubt" — was addressing Olivia's split with Joshua Bassett, who was rumored to be dating the one and only Sabrina Carpenter after the breakup. Monica Schipper/GA / The Hollywood Reporter via Getty Images, Jamie McCarthy / WireImage Related: Matthew Perry Gifted Lisa Kudrow A Prop From "Friends" After Filming Wrapped — Now 20 Years Later She Found A Note Inside It Of course, a lot has changed since then — not least the fact that Sabrina has now become equally as big of a pop star as Olivia. So it's funny — and a bit shocking, honestly — that the topic of the "Drivers License" drama came up with Sabrina in a recent interview with Rolling Stone.

'I've tried being ­brunette, and it didn't look good on me, so this is what it is," she also joked. But that's not all! Sabrina also got real about what she learned regarding the whole sitch. 'All I knew was that it wasn't going to stop me from doing what I loved, ever,' she said. 'That's kind of how I've always felt." "Sometimes, it's about how you are able to be resilient. What that era taught me was to just trust myself, and trust that everything is going to work out the way it's supposed to, and trust that relationships are put into your life for a reason. You might not see that in the moment, but you see it later.' You can read the entire interview here.
