Diddy back-up dancer reveals ‘horrific’ experience with rapper after federal agents raid homes: Updates

50 Cent has denied claims that he raped and physically abused his former girlfriend, Daphne Joy.

Joy accused the rapper and business mogul of the “evil actions” in an Instagram post on Thursday (28 March), after he mocked her on social media for being mentioned as a sex worker in Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones’ lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs.

“Let’s put the real focus on your true evil actions of raping me and physically abusing me. You are no longer my oppressor and my God will handle you from this point on,” she wrote.

His team have now denied her allegations of rape and abuse as “false and baseless”.

In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter on Thursday (28 March), representatives for 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, said: “The disturbing allegations in the sworn pleadings recently filed in a court case related to Daphne Joy the mother of my 12-year-old child, has required me to take all necessary legal actions to protect my son Sire. The most recent false and baseless accusations by Daphne Joy are clearly in response to my decision to seek sole custody of my son. My son Sire is my main priority and keeping him in a safe environment is my only focus at this time.”

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ private jet has landed back in Florida after it left the country on the day his LA and Miami homes were raided by Homeland Security.

The jet flew to Antigua and Barbuda on the day the feds raided the rapper’s home.

The plane returned on Wednesday morning and has remained parked at the Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport ever since.

Diddy has not made a public appearance since the federal raids.

Combs, who faces a litany of sexual assault allegations, is said to have drawn guests to his infamous parties through his VIP associations with “celebrities such as famous athletes, political figures, artists, musicians and international dignitaries like British Royal, Prince Harry”, according to the legal notice.

The kitchen counters are covered in dust; a crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling, coated in cobwebs. Around the huge rooms, furniture and pieces of decor sit in various states of disrepair.

The Bad Boy Entertainment founder bought the eight-bedroom, 16-bathroom home – which was built in 1987 – for $2.6m (£2m) from HJ Newton in 2003, and has never spoken about why he left it empty for so many years.

Lawyers for the rapper and music mogul said there was “no excuse” for the “hostility” shown by authorities towards Combs’ children and staff members at the two properties.

The raids occurred on Monday at the hip-hop star’s mansion in the Holmby Hills area of Los Angeles, California, and his Miami Beach home on Star Island, in Florida.

Brendan Paul, the man arrested at a Florida airport earlier this week and who had been accused of being Sean “Diddy“ Combs’ “drug mule,” is a former Syracuse University men’s basketball player.

Federal agents raided Combs’s LA mansion on the same day Mr Paul was apprehended at Opa Locka Airport airport in Miami before he could board a private jet.

Mr Paul was recently named in a lawsuit filed by Rodney Jones, a music producer, who alleged that the former basketball player was Combs’ “mule” and worked to gather and distribute guns for the rapper.

The February lawsuit brought against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs by producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones is not the first time the rapper was sued for sexual misconduct.

In November, the singer Cassie, a protege of Combs, sued him. She claimed he engaged in years of sex abuse toward her, including rape. In the lawsuit, she claimed he forced her to have sex with male prostitutes and filmed the acts.

The suit was settled on the day after it was filed.

“I did not do any of the awful things being alleged,” Combs said after the November lawsuit.

Combs has also denied the allegations in the February lawsuit.

Firearms were reportedly found by federal agents searching Sean “Diddy” Combs’ properties in LA and Miami, according to sources who spoke to NBC News.

The type of firearms allegedly found and the legal owners of the firearms is unknown as of this report.

Federal agents searched the properties on Monday.

Combs is a defendant in a lawsuit allegeing that he was involved in drug trafficking. He has denied all allegeations and has called the federal raid a “witch hunt.”

Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, who sued Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in February, alleged in court filings that the rapper installed “hundreds” of hidden cameras in his various homes.

“While living and traveling with Mr. Combs, Mr. Jones discovered that Mr. Combs had hidden cameras in every room of his home,” the court filing says.

Combs has denied the allegations in Mr Jones’ lawsuit.

Federal authorities raided Combs’ LA mansion on Monday. Combs has not been charged with a crime and was not detained.
