‘Bi-curious, cuck': Ex's brutal view of Diddy

‘Bi-curious, cuck': Ex's brutal view of Diddy

News.com.au3 days ago

An ex girlfriend of Sean 'Diddy' Combs has told a New York jury the star described himself as polyamorous and into 'voyeurism' as he liked to watch his partner sleep with other men.
But she thought of the star more as a 'cuck' and someone potentially with repressed bisexual leanings.
Giving testimony anonymously in Combs' sex trafficking and racketeering trial on Tuesday, US time, 'Jane' also said that she loved the music mogul but he did at times beat her.
Also on Tuesday his legal team scored a victory with a possible witness now not allowed to take the stand.
Combs has denied all the charges against him.
Jane, who dated Combs up until his 2024 arrest is the second witness at the musician's trial to give evidence while keeping their identity secret. This is usually because of the sensitivity and personal nature of the evidence they are giving.
Earlier, his ex-staff member 'Mia' also gave evidence alleging Combs raped and physically abused her.
' I would use the word cuck'
Jane told the jury on Tuesday that Combs had told her he was into 'voyeurism' to explain why he enjoyed watching his female partner sleeping with male sex workers, reported the New York Post.
But 'I would use the word cuck for him, more so,' she said.
Jane explained that she had looked into the term, derived from 'cuckold,' which means a man who has an unfaithful wife.
'I was just trying to deep-dive all the reasons why [cucks] derived so much pleasure watching their woman be with other men'.
She added that cucks 'could also have a lot of bi-curiosity that they're too ashamed to experience themselves, so they use the woman to venture out in this curiosity instead of actually doing the act themselves'.
Polyamory
Combs' lawyer Teny Geragos asked Jane 'What term did he use?' to describe his sexual proclivities.
'Polyamorous,' Jane responded.
At first she said, she didn't mind as she assumed polyamory would mean all his partners would be treated 'evenly'.
But Combs began to frustrate her when appeared to favour one woman and that 'looked like a monogamous relationship', she said.
Another ex, Cassie Ventura, had earlier said at the trial that drug-fuelled sex sessions where she would have sex with male escorts were called 'freak offs'. But by the time Jane took part in them they were called 'hotel nights'.
Teny Geragos, a lawyer for Combs asked Jane if she tried to be sexy for the Bad Boy Records founder during their 'hotel nights'.
'I don't think I tried, I think I did, and I was,' Jane responded.
'Because you're a beautiful woman,' Mr Geragos said.
'Thank you,' Jane replied.
'Do you love him?'
Jane was also asked by the defence if 'you love him currently' referring to Combs.
'Yes,' said Jane.
Previously, Jane had said Combs choked, kicked and punched her and then expected her to have sex with a male escort the same night.
Before the forced sex-session, the mogul pressured Jane to take an ecstasy pill, saying, 'take this f***ing pill, you're not gonna ruin my f***ing night' and then told her to start having sex with the sex worker, despite her objections.
The alleged incident was claimed to have taken place on June 18, 2024. That was a few months after Combs' homes were raided by federal officers in March and a few months before he was ultimately arrested in September for allegedly coercing women to have sex with male sex workers.
On Tuesday, Combs' defence team scored a small legal victory when the judge overseeing the trial said prosecutors could not call a psychologist back to the stand.
Dr Dawn Hughes testified earlier in the trial for the government. The defence team had hoped to bring back Dr Hughes to explain why domestic violence victims stay with their abusers.
She could have helped blunt the defence argument that many of Combs' accusers could not have been fearful of the star because they remained either in a romantic or work relationship with him after his alleged attacks.

God Only Knows Brian Wilson was a humble music fan, just like the rest of us

The troubled and sometimes estranged daughter of the musical genius Brian Wilson famously described her young life waking each morning to the same song being played by her father at full volume. Every single day. Carnie Wilson, herself an accomplished musician, said she would wake to the first heartbeat-like thumps of the song echoing through the house: DUM. Da-da da DUM. A familiar wall of sound would roll through the drumbeat, then the percussion would hit, and then the yearning lyrics to the Ronettes' smash hit, Be My Baby, would soar once again. The night we met I knew I/needed you so Brian Wilson, the founder of the Beach Boys, often described the 1963 classic as the greatest song he knew. "I felt like I wanted to try to do something as good as that record, and I never did. I've never stopped trying. It's the greatest record ever produced, no doubt." Listening to one great musician stand in awe of another's piece of music, sounding humble and joyous just like any other fan, is a wonderfully intimate thing. When you realise that Bruce Springsteen or Florence Welch are buying the same records you buy and are also standing in their living room with the volume up wondering, how do they do that, you understand how connected you all are as music fans. How you all attend the same church and sing the same hymns. It is a remarkable leveller when a great musician declares themselves simply another fan. Brian Wilson's enduring love of that gorgeous piece of pop makes him a kid singing at the top of his voice in the car, just like us. In the wake of Brian Wilson's death this week at the age of 82, generations of musicians have spoken about how much they loved his songs too, about how meaningful they have been in their lives as fans and musicians, and there is one song in particular that they keep coming back to. Shall I try to list them all, the artists who say that the Beach Boys, the album Pet Sounds, and that one song have been some of the most important songs in their lives? Patti Smith, Bruno Mars, Iggy Pop, Elton John, Paul Simon, Janelle Monae, Carole King, Leonard Bernstein, Smokey Robinson, the Gibb brothers, The Eagles… I'll have to stop there, but will finish of course with John Lennon and Paul McCartney, who were unabashed fans. The two bands inspired each other and competed with each other in their early days. The Beatles' Rubber Soul spurred Brian to write Pet Sounds, which in turn sparked Sergeant Peppers: the best kind of rivalry when fans get the benefits. But what of this one song — the one song that all these musicians and others reference when they say it's one of the greatest ever written? The night Brian died, the singer-songwriter Sting was on tour in Germany, and this is how he commemorated him. The simple purity of God Only Knows, and the glorious harmonies of its recorded version have become a touchstone of modern music, and a shared password of musical passion: if someone you like likes this song too, then you're going to be just fine. Paul McCartney wrote on Instagram this week: "Brian had that mysterious sense of musical genius that made his songs so achingly special. The notes he heard in his head and passed to us were simple and brilliant at the same time." I've written before about how our most beloved musicians close a door on our early, formative lives as music fans when they die. We get to keep their music, but our connection to that thrilled, younger self gets ever more distant, and they seem to take an understanding of us with them. They have the secret of us because of our love for them. For many this week Brian was that idol, and I know when another goes, we all privately review the list of those who remain and dread the inevitable news of their loss one day. I've checked my list. For now, they are all here, although so many are missing. But I can still play their songs to keep them close. This weekend, read about the Melbourne eccentric who kept the people and faces of his city alive with a photo booth that nobody thought was anything more than an amusement. The persistence of memory, again. Have a safe and happy weekend, and here is just a handful of great artists who revere that Brian Wilson song, all in perfect harmony, to celebrate the BBC's enduring love of music, just like ours. Go well. Virginia Trioli is presenter of Creative Types and a former co-host of ABC News Breakfast and Mornings on ABC Radio Melbourne.

Diddy trial stunned by shock appearance of Kanye West

Kanye West made a surprise appearance at Sean 'Diddy' Combs' sex-trafficking trial Friday morning, entering the courtroom with one of Combs' sons. When West - who goes by Ye Ye - came to the courthouse around 11.10am, screams could be heard from bystanders, who shouted questions at him and recorded with their phones. West - wearing all white denim pants and jacket and black sunglasses - was asked, 'Are you here to support Combs?' 'Yes,' the fellow rapper responded. He did not respond to questions about whether he's been following the trial, which has been running for five weeks. He was met by Combs' son Christian 'King' Combs, who walked with the rapper inside. Once West was cleared through the courthouse security, he got in an elevator and went to the 23rd floor to watch the trial on a television screen inside a less-used secondary overflow room. Two overflow courtrooms have been available throughout trial so the public can still view the trial in case the main courtroom reaches capacity. The main courtroom, however, was not full Friday. West briefly observed inside the room, before other reporters caught wind of his surprise visit, apparently prompting him to leave. West spent about 40 minutes total inside the courthouse before leaving with Combs' son and someone who appeared to be security. West's wife, Bianca Censori, was not in attendance or seen at the courthouse. West didn't answer questions as he got into a black car and drove away. A day earlier, one of Diddy's alleged victims, former gal pal 'Jane,' gave shocking testimony about an unnamed, world-famous rap 'icon' whom she said was into a 'similar' sex-crazed, 'freak-off' lifestyle as the Bad Boy Records founder. West didn't respond to reporters' questions about whether he was the 'iconic' rapper described on Thursday. One of Sean 'Diddy' Combs' alleged victims and his one-time gal pal 'Jane' testified that she attended a January 2024 Las Vegas party hosted by a famous rapper who was throwing a birthday party for his girlfriend. Jane said she was flown on the rapper's private plane to Sin City, where a group of attendees went to a play, then to a birthday dinner, before going to a strip club and capping the night off with an afterparty in a hotel room. Jane said at the afterparty she saw an escort named Antoine having sex with a woman as the rapper, his girlfriend and others watched. Jane said she and Diddy had hired Antoine several times to join in 'freak-offs' with them. And when she saw Antoine at the party, he told her he travelled around with the mystery rapper and his girlfriend. Jane also said she recommended to the rapper another escort she and Combs hired because, similar to the 'I'll Be Missing You' rhymer, the mystery rapper was into a 'similar' sex-crazed 'lifestyle.' Jane said Combs was upset with her when he found out she went to the rapper's party and subsequent 'freak-off'. Diddy, 55, is accused of using his fame, fortune and many businesses to run a decade-long scheme in which he controlled and manipulated his longtime girlfriend, R&B singer Cassie Ventura, 38, and others including Jane using violence and threats, forcing them into 'freak-off' sex marathons that went on for days. The rapper has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He faces life in prison if convicted.
