Jay-Z has been accused in a lawsuit of raping a 13-year-old girl in 2000 with Diddy, who has faced a litany of allegations in recent months.The rapper and entrepreneur – real name Shawn Carter – has been named in a lawsuit that was originally filed in October, with Carter’s name refiled on Sunday (December 8).In October, it was reported that lawyer Tony Buzbee was working with around 120 people to potentially file lawsuits against Diddy – real name Sean Combs – with 25 of them minors at the time of the alleged abuse.Later that month, a lawsuit was filed by Buzbee claiming Combs – as well as another, unnamed male celebrity – raped a 13-year-old girl at a VMAs after-party in 2000.

So far, Combs has pleaded not guilty to all charges, with his lawyers also dismissing accusations as “clear attempts to garner publicity”.

Adding: “Mr Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone – adult or minor, man or woman.”Per NBC News, the unnamed celebrity accused of being involved is revealed to be Carter.

Buzbee did not comment when approached by NBC News.In a statement issued via Roc Nation, Carter called the allegations against him “heinous in nature”, imploring Buzbee to file the lawsuit as a “criminal complaint, not a civil one”.“Whomever would commit such a crime against a minor should be locked away, would you not agree?” Carter wrote. “These alleged victims would deserve real justice if that were the case.”Carter would level accusations against Buzbee, whom he called a “deplorable human” and an “ambulance chaser in a cheap suit” with no “honour nor dignity”.
