Diddy responds
Diddy has denied the claims.His attorney, Ben Brafman, told ET that his client finds the claims offensive and outrageous.
The attorney also claimed that Cassie had been threatening Diddy for several months before filing the lawsuit.
"For the past 6 months, Mr. Combs, has been subjected to Ms. Ventura's persistent demand of $30 million, under the threat of writing a damaging book about their relationship, which was unequivocally rejected as blatant blackmail," Brafman told ET.
"Despite withdrawing her initial threat, Ms. Ventura has now resorted to filing a lawsuit riddled with baseless and outrageous lies, aiming to tarnish Mr. Combs' reputation and seeking a pay day."
