Shawn Carter: Last News

an interview with NBC News, just days after her lawyer amended a lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs to include Jay-Z – whose real name is Shawn Carter. She accused the pair of raping her at an after-party for the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards in the Empire State, according to the disturbing suit refiled in the Southern District of New York on Sunday.

Jay-Z has sued the woman who accused him of sexual assault, accusing her and her attorney of “false and malicious” allegations.Late last year, an anonymous woman, referred to as Jane Doe, filed a civil lawsuit against the rapper and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, accusing them of raping her in 2000 at an MTV VMAs after-party when she was 13 years old. Jay-Z strenuously denied the allegations.However, in February, the accuser voluntarily withdrew the suit with prejudice, meaning she would not be able to file it again, and she acknowledged that there had been inconsistencies in her original account of the alleged incident.Now, Jay-Z – real name Shawn Carter – has filed his own suit accusing Doe and her lawyers Tony Buzbee and David Fortney of engaging in an “evil conspiracy” to extort him with “completely fabricated” and “wildly horrific” claims of rape.As reported by Rolling Stone, the suit was filed on Monday (March 3) and it alleges that Carter’s representatives made contact with Doe and she is said to have admitted concocting her claims about Carter.

As the Chateau Marmont staff this morning were cleaning up after Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s annual post-Oscars Gold party, the “Empire State of Mind” superstar was doubling down against the Jane Doe and the lawyer who accused him and Sean “Diddy” Combs of raping her as a minor in a now-dismissed case.

Steven J. Horowitz Senior Music Writer Jay-Z has filed a defamation lawsuit against attorney Tony Buzbee, David Fortney and a Jane Doe over a previously dropped suit that alleged sexual assault. The suit, filed in Alabama and reviewed by Variety, comes a few weeks after Doe dropped her case against Jay-Z (real name Shawn Carter) and Sean “Diddy” Combs.

The case that Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs repeatedly raped a 13-year-old after the 2000 MTV VMAs was dismissed on Valentines’ Day by its Jane Doe plaintiff. However, in legal moves on both coasts, the two rappers are apparently far from done with her lawyer, Tony Buzbee.

The lawsuit accusing Jay-Z and the currently-incarcerated Sean “Diddy” Combs of repeatedly raping a minor in 2000 after the MTV VMAs was dismissed on Valentine’s Day, but the bitter relationship between the “Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)” rapper and attorney Tony Buzbee rages on, for now.

Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs in 2000 has voluntarily withdrawn her lawsuit, according to a court document filed on Friday (February 14).The suit was first filed back in December by Jane Doe, who alleged she was sexually assaulted by both artists at a VMA after-party.The anonymous accuser filed papers later obtained by Rolling Stone informing the court that she was withdrawing her complaint with prejudice, meaning she could not file it again.Attorneys for Combs – who was arrested and charged with crimes including sexual trafficking and racketeering last September and is currently in a federal jail awaiting trial – told the publication there was no settlement between the parties. Combs has consistently denied all allegations raised against him.Roc Nation founder Jay-Z, born Shawn Carter, has continually denied the “heinous” accusation after Doe named him in an amended complaint in December, and had previously hit out at his accuser’s lawyer for “getting basic facts wrong”.Last month, Carter filed a memo with additional arguments to dismiss the suit, having previously filed a motion to dismiss it, with his lawyers requesting a monetary sanction be placed on Texan attorney Tony Buzbee – the lawyer representing Jane Doe – alleging that he failed to adequately investigate the woman’s allegations before he filed the lawsuit.Buzbee declined to comment on the dismissal, per Rolling Stone.In a statement shared with NME today, the ‘Empire State Of Mind’ artist called the news a “victory.”“The frivolous, fictitious and appalling allegations have been dismissed,” Carter said.

The lawsuit against Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs has been dropped.

Steven J. Horowitz Senior Music Writer The lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs and Jay-Z over the alleged rape of a 13-year-old girl in 2000 has been dismissed by the attorney representing the Jane Doe, according to a court filing made on Friday in New York. The voluntary dismissal, reviewed by Variety, was filed by attorneys Tony Buzbee and Antigone Curis, claiming that the Jane Doe who accused the musicians of sexual assault “hereby gives notice that the above-captioned Action is voluntarily dismissed, with prejudice.” Because it was dismissed with prejudice, the suit cannot be refiled as it is in its present form.

Sean “Diddy” Combs is still facing a criminal trial in May over sex trafficking and more, as well as dozens of sexual assault cases, but the Bad Boys Records founder and Jay-Z are now no longer are being accused of raping a 13-year-old girl back in 2000.

In the lull between the Beyoncé dominated Grammys of February 2 and Kendrick Lamar‘s Roc Nation produced half time show at Super Bowl LIX on February 9, Jay-Z is making some shifts in strategy in the hopes of getting tossed out claims that the Big Pimpin rapper, the incarcerated Sean “Diddy” Combs and a currently unidentified female “Celebrity B” repeatedly sexually assaulted a 13-year-old girl in 2000.

Jay-Z‘s lawyer has told the court that the anonymous accuser’s claims against his client and Diddy are too old to pursue.Per Rolling Stone, the lawyer, Alex Spiro, filed new court paperwork yesterday (December 30) stating plans to challenge the lawsuit on grounds that the claim does not qualify for revival under the “lookback” window linked to New York City’s Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act (GMVA). Spiro argued that the GMVA was not enacted until December 19, 2000, which took place three months after the alleged rape.On December 8, it was reported that Jay-Z – real name Shawn Carter – was named in a lawsuit which alleged the rape of a 13-year-old girl in 2000 by the rapper and Diddy, real name Sean Combs.In a statement issued via Roc Nation, Carter called the allegations “heinous in nature” and dismissed them as a “blackmail attempt”, and filed a court letter seeking the dismissal of the suit while maintaining his innocence.
