Attorney Lisa Bloom has hinted that a scandal surrounding Sean “P Diddy” Combs may escalate as she anticipates a surge of new allegations against the 55-year-old rapper. Combs is already facing multiple civil lawsuits for rape, sexual assault, and sex trafficking. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Bloom suspects far-reaching consequences, predicting that her client, Danity Kane’s Dawn Richard, who has filed a lawsuit against Combs, may signal an avalanche of claims. “I think this is just the tip of the iceberg,” Bloom said. “I think we’re going to see a lot more accusers come forward.”
Combs’ associates are also being targeted in these allegations, with Bloom expressing certainty that hundreds of people will allege “sexual assault, physical violence, threats, sex trafficking” tied to Diddy or his associates.
Celebrity friends like Khloe Kardashian previously hailed Combs as an “incredible family friend,” but footage showing him dancing with Ariana Grande may have contributed to the growing criticism. Jay-Z, who has been accused of raping a 13-year-old girl alongside Combs, has denied all allegations.
Combs’ lawyers claim that Richard’s lawsuit is manufactured and aimed at securing a payday. However, Richard alleges that Combs belittled, terrorized, and sexually abused her, as well as viciously beating his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura.
