Diddy's Ex-Girlfriend Cries in Court Alleging 3-Day Sex Sessions With Male Escorts That Made Her ‘Feel Disgusting'
A woman who dated Sean 'Diddy' Combs from January 2021 to August 2024 broke down in tears on the witness stand at his criminal trial as she recounted enduring three-day sex sessions with male escorts that were allegedly arranged by Combs.
Testifying under a pseudonym, 'Jane' said Combs pressured her into participating in these so-called 'hotel nights,' drug-fueled sexual performances that closely resemble the 'freak-offs' that Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura described.

Jane described one 'hotel night' that involved three rounds of sexual intercourse with one escort over the course of 18 hours. Immediately afterward, Combs allegedly left the hotel. Jane said she was 'so high' from ecstasy given to her by Combs and felt 'lonely.'
Jane said 'hotel nights' became a weekly occasion during parts of her relationship with Combs. The longest 'hotel night' Jane remembers having lasted more than three days without sleep. She said the shortest of such encounters lasted 12 hours, and a typical 'hotel night' spanned 24 to 30 hours.
Jane said she told Combs multiple times that she did not want to have sex with other men, and that he was 'dismissive' of her concerns. An audio recording from a hotel room in which Jane asked that an escort wear a condom was played in court. In the recording, Combs is heard brushing off Jane's request. Jane testified that on another occasion, Combs looked at her and said, 'You better not ask for a fucking condom' as an escort prepared to begin intercourse with her.
Jane testified about one 'hotel night' that occurred on her birthday. She was eating at Nobu, having great one-on-one time with Combs, when he mentioned there would be 'entertainment' after dinner — a 'gulp moment' for Jane. They went to a hotel after the meal, where Combs gave Jane a necklace for her birthday. Then, an unfamiliar man entered the hotel suite. 'I just accepted it,' Jane said of the 'hotel nights.' The sexual routine became muscle memory for her. 'I've done so many of these, I just know how to tune out,' Jane said. 'I just put my thoughts away [and] tune into someone else. Somebody who can perform.'
Through heavy cries, Jane described the alleged encounter as 'invasive.' 'I didn't want to do this on my birthday,' she said. After the escort finished, Combs and Jane moved to a different hotel suite, where Combs was 'sweet' and gave her another gift, alongside flowers, cake and balloons. She remembered another escort suddenly entering, and they had 'hours and hours' of sex. 'By the time he left, it was morning,' Jane said. She testified that Combs brought in a third escort immediately afterward.
On one occasion, Jane testified, she performed a 'hotel night' without taking drugs. After having sex with two male escorts, she went to the bathroom and threw up. As a third escort entered the hotel room, she recalled Combs telling her, 'You'll feel better now that you've thrown up. Let's go.'
In a text message from September 2023 that was read in court, Jane told Combs, 'I don't want to play this role in your life anymore … it's dark, sleazy and makes me feel disgusting.'
Jane's testimony began on Thursday afternoon, when she told the jury that she met Combs while on a girls' trip in Miami in 2020. At the time, Combs was romantically involved with one of Jane's friends, and he invited them on a boat and to his house. She called him 'Ernie' and he called her 'Bert,' nicknames based on the 'Sesame Street' characters.
Jane and Combs started a romantic relationship in January 2021, and Jane found him 'super charming,' 'passionate' and 'larger than life.' She told him that she had previously been in a relationship with one of his friends, and that she had a child with someone Combs disliked.
A month later, Combs took Jane on a trip to the Turks and Caicos Islands, when he allegedly gave her the drug ecstasy 10 times over the course of nine days. Over the next few months, they met up every other week and had lots of sex. She said Combs often gave her cash payments, sometimes up to $10,000, as a loving gesture.
Things changed in May 2021, when Combs began opening up to Jane about his sexual fantasies. Early one morning, they had been up for 24 hours straight on ecstasy and MDMA, and they were having sex for nearly 15 hours while watching pornography. 'He really wanted me to fantasize or talk about other men,' Jane said. She recalled Combs saying, 'I can make this fantasy a reality,' and, within a couple of hours, he brought her to a hotel room that was being set up by assistants.
Combs hired a male escort named Don to come to the hotel, and he had Jane dress up in lingerie and 'big stripper heels,' as she called them. Jane described being high on drugs as Combs instructed her to pour baby oil on Don and then perform oral sex on him. Things escalated, and soon enough Jane was undressing and having intercourse with Don. After he ejaculated, she had sex with Combs. Jane said this experience 'exhilarated' her because 'it was taboo.' 'I had a good time with my partner,' she said.
But 'that night opened a Pandora's box in our relationship,' Jane said. 'It was a door I was unable to shut.'
Soon, having sex with other men became 90% of her time spent with Combs, Jane said. These 'hotel nights' could involve multiple rounds of sex with male escorts and with Combs, and they could span up to 30 hours without sleep. Jane said she told Combs 'many times,' both in writing and verbally, that she did not want to have sex with other men, a concern that Combs allegedly brushed off.
When Jane moved from the East Coast to Los Angeles in 2021, Combs paid her $10,000 rent. When she expressed hesitancy about his sexual preferences, Combs insinuated that they could break up and he would stop paying her rent, she testified. Thus, she said she felt 'obligated' to 'perform' for him. In the September 2023 text, Jane told Combs that she felt the 'hotel nights' were 'the only reason you have me around and pay for the house.'
Earlier in the trial, Combs' longtime ex-girlfriend Ventura alleged that over the course of 11 years, Combs used violence and threats of blackmail to coerce her into 'freak-offs,' drug-fueled sex parties with male escorts that lasted days at a time.
Combs is pleading not guilty to charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. If convicted, he faces a possible life sentence in prison.

‘Something Beautiful with Miley Cyrus' Review: The Star Co-Directs an Album's Worth of Music Videos, Celebrating Her Sexuality…and Herself
It's the rare pop star who doesn't use his or her sexuality in some way. But the current moment, typified by stars like Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, and Charli XCX, tends to be about showcasing one's sexuality ironically, or with an acid flippancy, or from behind a mask, or with a certain cool stance of meta control. Miley Cyrus never got that memo. In 'Something Beautiful,' a 55-minute visual album made up of music videos, co-directed by Cyrus (with Jacob Bixenman and Brendan Walter), of the 13 tracks from her just-released album, Cyrus struts and pouts and lets it out, she throws her body around like a gymnastic weapon, and in a way she throws her beauty around, as though she were trying to sear the power of her erotic presence into our souls. More from Variety 'Titan: The OceanGate Disaster' Review: Netflix Doc Depicts High-End Deep Sea Exploration With a Lethal Price Tag 'Rosemead' Review: Lucy Liu's Revelatory Turn Is the Reason to See an Otherwise Downbeat Family Drama Michael Imperioli on Jack Kerouac, Buddhism and a Changing New York: 'I Still Love the City to Death' At the Tribeca Festival, where the 'Something Beautiful' visual album premiered tonight, the audience cheered every femme fatale glower, every showgirl flash of writhing flesh, every doffed piece of slinky punk designer clothing. It was clear that Cyrus staged the videos not merely as an orgy of rock-star self-love but as an homage to an era when the flaunting of sexuality was something that people felt less cautious about. She wants to take us back to the age of letting it rip. Miley Cyrus is pre-ironic, and so is her music, which is hooky in a heavily produced big-beat way that's starting to sound as from-another-era as Springsteen's. (To me, that's not an insult.) In the 'Something Beautiful' videos, you feel her trying to elevate her erotic maximalism into a kind of mythology. In 'Easy Lover,' she strips down to her underwear in a soundstage dressing room, then walks onto an empty Hollywood lot wearing light-blue ruffled chaps and a winged jacket, sauntering through that land of make-believe as if to say, 'What you're seeing is just…an image!' (Well, yes.) In 'Golden Burning Sun,' one of the catchier songs on the album, she's photographed in profile, wearing giant sunglasses as she rides a chopper against a stylized orange sky, singing, 'You're the only one, under the golden burning sun.' For all the independent spirit that defined 'Flowers,' and at a moment when Sabrina Carpenter's 'Manchild' is being touted as a potential iconic summer hit, Miley Cyrus's ardent anthems can sound as old-school devotional as something from the 1980s. And, in fact, there's an '80s nostalgia hanging over the entire visual album. It's very 'Flashdance' meets Lita Ford. There is much windblown hair, and the video for 'Walk of Fame' opens on a rhythm track highly reminiscent of Bronski Beat's 'Smalltown Boy,' as we see Miley, in a little silver dress, strutting in the middle of the night along the abandoned but highly lit-up-by-street-lights-and-store-windows Hollywood Boulevard. You keep expecting Mia Goth to show up with a knife, but Cyrus is the only one there, and does she ever work it, bending and writhing over those stars on the Walk of Fame. Here, as in several of the other videos, I kept feeling as if one of those cliché fashion photographers must be hovering off-camera, saying, 'Yes, that's it! Show me what you got!' And then we arrive at 'Every Girl You've Ever Loved,' which feels like the climax to the visual album. It's set in an empty warehouse loft, with light shooting through propeller fans (very Adrian Lyne), and with Miley, in her primal assertion of feminine power, joined by Naomi Campbell, the two of them obliterating the need for anyone else. (The only dude in these videos is someone who shows up in the last one, looking like a Calvin Klein model as shot by Kenneth Anger.) At the premiere, a journalist sitting next to me said, 'There's no narrative here at all.' Given that 'Something Beautiful' was presented as a Tribeca Festival event, I think what she was hoping to see was a visual album that tried for something along the lines of Beyoncé's 'Lemonade.' 'Something Beautiful' is very much not that. Yet if the videos, with their confectionary nod to the eros of celebrity, lack any semblance of a storytelling through line, I wouldn't say that means they have no narrative. They tell the story of Miley Cyrus's relationship to sexuality and stardom. As an adult pop star, she has always borne a striking resemblance to the Faye Dunaway of the early '70s, but she's like Faye Dunaway without the mystery. Yet in 'Something Beautiful,' with the songs used as catwalk tracks, you see how Miley Cyrus, in elevating her erotic aura, is trying to be a performer of mystery — to let her beauty singe our eyeballs, to let it vibrate into the cosmos. Yet it's all a little insular. The final song, the video of which plays over the end credits, is called 'Give Me Love,' and it feels like the whole film could have been called that. We're the audience for Miley Cyrus's sex-power rapture. But we're also the mirror she's looking into. Best of Variety The Best Albums of the Decade

Dave Chappelle Reflects On 2016 Trump ‘SNL' Speech
Source: Arturo Holmes / Getty For comedian Dave Chappelle, the opening monologue he gave as the host of Saturday Night Live after the 2016 presidential election isn't something he regrets. He had the chance to reflect on it during a conversation with comedian Mo Amer for the Actors on Actors series for Variety. 'I haven't watched it in a while, but I remember it fondly,' Chappelle said at the 27-minute mark of the conversation, which was shared Wednesday (June 4) after Amer asked him about his perspective on it from back then to now. The monologue went viral, as Chappelle declared that 'an internet troll' had won the White House, also pointing out his history of sexual assault. He would then segue into how he felt after former President Barack Obama won in 2008. 'And it made me very happy about the prospects of our country,' he said then. 'So, in that spirit, I'm wishing Donald Trump luck. And I'm going to give him a chance. And we, the historically disenfranchised, demand that he give us one, too.''Oh, I remember that part,' Chappelle said. 'You know what? I look at it like a photograph. That's what it felt like in that moment. Now, if it ages well or not, I don't get mad if I look at a picture because it's not today. That's what it was at that time.' He continued, 'You might look at an old set and cringe, but you could just cringe because of how you were at that time. And in that sense, I'm fine with it.' Chappelle's conversation with Amer is one of the rare moments he's opened up for media – he has declined direct interviews in the wake of brushback from jokes he made against the transgender community in his 2021 Netflix special The Closer . But he and the Palestinian comedian bonded during the COVID-19 pandemic, making this a keen opportunity for the two to talk about comedy and their perspectives on the current times particularly with Amer's hit Netflix show. 'As you know, I notoriously don't like to do press,' Chappelle said, 'but today I wouldn't have missed, because it's you.' Check out the entire conversation above.
