“Mr. Combs is shocked and disappointed by this lawsuit. In an attempt to rewrite history, Dawn Richard has now manufactured a series of false claims all in the hopes of trying to get a pay day — conveniently timed to coincide with her album release and press tour,” Diddy‘s attorney Erica Wolff shared in a statement.
“If Ms. Richard had such a negative experience with Making the Band and Danity Kane, she would not have chosen to continue working directly with Mr. Combs for Dirty Money, nor would she have returned for the Making the Band reboot in 2020 or agreed to be featured on The Love Album last year,” she continued. “It’s unfortunate that Ms. Richard has cast their 20-year friendship aside to try and get money from him, but Mr. Combs is confidently standing on truth and looks forward to proving that in court.”
Dawn‘s lawsuit includes claims of being forced to rehearse for 48 hours at a time, him demanding her to arrive at his Miami home in only underwear, and barging into her dressing room and inappropriately touching her breasts. Read more here.
It was also just revealed this week that Sean “Diddy” Combs was ordered to pay $100 million after a Michigan inmate won a sexual assault judgment against.
