A former porn star is suing Diddy over claims he trafficked her to have sex with party guests and threatened to blackmail her if she did not comply.
Adria English, whose stage name was Omunique, claimed she first met the musician in 2004 when her boyfriend was auditioning for a Sean John modeling gig.
She alleges she worked parties hosted by Diddy in which she would drink alcohol laced with narcotics like ecstasy and would be asked to flirt with guests.
The four NHL players who played on Canada’s gold medal-winning 2018 world junior team and who were charged with sexual assault are now free agents after their teams did not re-sign them.

Newly released court documents reveal the latest set of criminal charges against billionaire businessman Frank Stronach involve seven different victims and range in date between 1977 to earlier this year.
Stronach, 91, was arrested Wednesday for six additional charges of sexual assault and two historical charges of attempted rape and indecent assault on a female. Through his lawyer, Stronach has denied the allegations against him, saying this week that he will “vigorously defend” himself against “these further untested allegations.”
The arrest of Frank Stronach for alleged sexual assaults spanning from the 1980s to last year brought back memories of my time at Magna International in the 1980s.
In 1985, I was among a handful of high-school students interviewed by Mr. Stronach and selected by him for a sponsorship to GMI (now Kettering University) in Flint, Mich. The university is often described as the “West Point” of the auto industry. Mary Barra, the CEO of GM, is a graduate. As a tool and die maker, Mr. Stronach was partial to the university’s approach to engineering education because it emulated the structure of an apprenticeship program. We students would toggle back and forth between Magna and school every three months, in a program designed to produce a crop of engineers with an intimate knowledge of the company and its way of doing business.
Her 10th anniversary as a Toronto police officer was approaching, but Firouzeh Zarabi-Majd was in no mood to celebrate. Embittered by the years of sexual harassment she said that she and her fellow female officers had experienced at work, she was engaged in a one-woman campaign to make her case public across Canada.
She had already gone through official channels, but when that didn’t work she took to social media.
For 18 months, Ms. Zarabi-Majd posted images of the pornography and racist and sexist messages that she said she witnessed in the workplace.
Elon Musk had a sexual relationship with a former SpaceX intern, who he later hired onto his executive team, according to The Wall Street Journal. He also had a sexual relationship with a second employee. And a third woman alleged that Musk asked her several times to have his children; she refused. He then denied her a raise and complained about her performance.
He’s a big target.
“All these big deviants are catching hell in 2024. It’s up for all of them. It don’t matter if you’re Diddy, or whoever…all lies will be exposed [sic],” the comedian Katt Williams confidently declared in a podcast with retired American football player Shannon Sharpe in January, discussing prominent rappers accused of sexual crimes.
The celebrated American magician David Copperfield has been accused by 16 women of engaging in sexual misconduct and inappropriate behavior, according to a Guardian US investigation.
More than half of the allegations are from women who said they were under 18 at the time of the incidents. Some said they were as young as 15, although he may not have known their ages.
The allegations against him include claims that he drugged three women before he had sexual relations with them, which they felt they were unable to consent to.
A New York judge ruled on Wednesday that disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein will face a retrial this autumn. This decision came after the momentous news last week that a New York state appeals court had overturned his rape conviction from 2020.
Hollywood has reacted with shock to the news that the disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein’s rape conviction has been overturned by a New York court.
The fallen movie mogul was sentenced to 23 years in 2020 for two sex crimes, a decision that a court of appeals has now called the result of an unfair trial.
Weinstein will remain imprisoned after also being convicted of rape in Los Angeles and sentenced to 16 years.
Have rape allegations lost their power?
It was autumn 2018, just over five years ago, when Christine Blasey Ford uttered that unforgettable line. “Indelible in the hippocampus is the laughter,” she said, referring to the gleeful cackling of a young Brett Kavanaugh as he allegedly drunkenly pinned her down and pawed at her clothes in an attempted assault.
The five members of the Canada’s 2018 world junior team facing sexual assault charges have requested a trial by jury.

The Hockey Canada scandal is back in the headlines after five players were charged over an alleged group sexual assault that took place in a London, Ont., hotel room in 2018. The arrests follow the 2022 revelation that Hockey Canada used taxpayer dollars and membership dues to pay off victims of sexual assaults and quiet them with non-disclosure agreements, or NDAs. The victim in the London case reported to police and co-operated throughout – but the police sent her back to Hockey Canada for their own internal investigation. This is a common practice where a powerful institution or corporation is involved.
Russell Brand has said accusations of sexual assault made against him are “very, very hurtful”.
The actor and comedian has denied allegations of rape, assault and emotional abuse between 2006 and 2013.
The allegations were reported as part of an investigation by the Times, the Sunday Times and Channel 4 Dispatches.
News that five players from Canada’s 2018 World Junior team are expected to face sexual assault charges is raising questions about next steps in the high-profile case.
This week, the Globe and Mail reported the players have been given until late next week to surrender to police in London, Ont., where a group sexual assault allegedly unfolded in 2018.
Probably career ending.
