Jay-Z and Sean Combs Accused of Assaulting 13-Year-Old Girl After 2000 MTV VMAs
Rapper Jay-Z, real name Shawn Carter, and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs face allegations of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl after the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. The accuser, identified as ‘Jane Doe,’ alleges the assault occurred at an after-party following the VMAs. Initially, the federal lawsuit mentioned only Combs but was amended to include Jay-Z. Both men deny the allegations. The lawsuit claims the girl was misled by a driver who said he worked for Diddy and was taken to a private residence where the alleged assault occurred.
