JAY-Z is calling for the anonymous accuser in his civil suit alleging sexual assault come forward.
After blasting the charges online, Hov’s attorney, Alex Spiro, is calling for an identity to be released in the suit filed by Tony Buzbee.
“The filing from [JAY-Z’]s attorney, Alex Spiro, specifically requests that the Jane Doe’s identity be disclosed in order to properly defend himself against this false claim through the legal process in a transparent manner,” a press statement reads.
In a letter to Judge Analisa Torres, Spiro writes: “For the avoidance of doubt, Mr. Carter is entirely innocent. This is a shake down. He is not mentioned, referenced, or implicated in any way in the criminal investigation of Mr. Combs. He is neither a target nor a person of interest in that investigation.”
Jay-Z's lawyer Alex Spiro is asking the judge to hurry up and dismiss the lawsuit.
"For the avoidance of doubt, Mr. Carter is entirely innocent. This is a shakedown."
JAY-Z has been named as a defendant in a federal lawsuit which alleges that he, together with hip hop impresario Sean “Diddy” Combs, drugged and raped a 13-year-old girl in 2000.
The lawsuit was originally filed by an anonymous “Jane Doe” plaintiff in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York in October. It named Combs as the defendant, alongside many of his corporate entities, including Bad Boy Entertainment and Bad Boy Records. Yesterday, the lawsuit was amended to add Jay-Z, a co-defendant, whose real name is Shawn Carter.
The lawsuit alleges that 2000 the plaintiff went to the MTV Video Music Awards in New York City without a ticket, hoping to get in. There, a limousine driver who claimed he worked for Combs invited her to an afterparty. He drove her to the party, where she alleges that she was made to sign a document that she believed was a non-disclosure agreement. She further alleges that upon drinking a portion of a beverage that was given to her by one of the waitresses at the party, she began feeling dizzy and lightheaded and found a room with a bed so she could lie down.
The lawsuit alleges that Carter, Combs and an unidentified female celebrity, who Plaintiff recognized, subsequently entered the room, and Carter held her down and raped her while Combs and the woman watched. Then Combs raped her while Carter and the woman watched. The lawsuit further alleges that Combs then tried to force her to perform oral sex on him, but she hit him, grabbed her clothes and ran away, escaping to a gas station outside where she used the phone to call her father.
The lawsuit alleges violation of the New York City Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act (VGMVPA). The VGMVPA provides a private cause of action for any individual who has been injured by another in a crime of violence motivated by gender. The VGMVPA temporarily suspends the statute of limitations for alleged acts that violate this law, even if the alleged acts took place decades ago and were previously time-barred. The VGMVPA allows individuals to recover economic damages, damages for emotional distress, punitive damages and attorney’s fees and expenses.
The lawsuit is one of many filed against Combs by Houston lawyer Tony Buzbee on behalf of more than a hundred plaintiffs. Buzbee previously made a name for himself representing twenty-two women who brought claims against Houston Texans quarterback DeSean Watson in 2021 for claims of sexual harassment and sexual assault. All the claims were eventually settled out of court.
Carter responded to the lawsuit in a statement, writing that “My lawyer received a blackmail attempt, called a demand letter, from a ‘lawyer’ named Tony Buzbee. What he had calculated was the nature of these allegations and the public scrutiny would make me want to settle. No sir, it had the opposite effect! It made me want to expose you for the fraud you are in a VERY public fashion. So no, I will not give you ONE RED PENNY!!”
Buzbee was sued in November by an anonymous male celebrity who alleges that Buzbee tried to extort payments by threatening to file sexual assault claims against him, which the celebrity denies. Buzbee denies all allegations of extortion. The anonymous celebrity has been alleged by Buzbee and in the media to be Jay-Z himself.
In a post on X on December 8, Buzbee responded to Carter, writing that “What he fails to say in his recent statement is my firm sent his lawyer a demand letter on behalf of an alleged victim and that victim never demanded a penny from him. Instead, she only sought a confidential mediation. Since I sent the letter on her behalf, Mr. Carter has not only sued me, but he has tried to bully and harass me and this plaintiff. His conduct has had the opposite impact. She is emboldened. I’m very proud of her resolve.”
Buzbee also claimed in an Instagram post that there was a concerted campaign to intimidate him, including “filing frivolous cases against me and my law firm, defaming me with outrageous assertions to anyone who will listen, and having mysterious people follow me and my family.”

Kim Porter, the late ex-girlfriend of Sean “Diddy” Combs, detailed the alleged abuse she suffered at his hands in a reported never-before-seen memoir, surfacing nearly six years after her sudden death.
According to an anonymous source who shared the files with RadarOnline.com, the explosive 40-page document was found on a flash drive. While RadarOnline.com cannot verify the claims, the memoir includes harrowing anecdotes of the actress and model’s life, allegedly written in the months leading up to her death.
Porter described Diddy’s “jealous” nature and short temper, recounting an incident where he allegedly sent her to the hospital after beating her with a chair.
“We were supposed to go out for dinner, but he was in a foul mood,” the memoir reads. “Sean yelled, ‘What the f—!’ I would have to walk on eggshells as I came out of the bathroom, but I found him holding flowers, so I smiled, ‘You brought me flowers!’ Sean yelled, ‘No! So who the f— are they from?’ I was bewildered, and told him honestly, ‘I don’t know. Probably just a fan.’
“He threw the attached card at me. I picked it up to read it. ‘Sean i…’ He slapped me so hard I hit the ground. Sean yelled, ‘Who the f— were you with the other night?’ I looked down at the card that was lying next to me, and it read, ‘The other night was amazing, we must do it again.’”
The memoir alleges the flowers came from a producer for a project who she had coffee with to discuss future work. The producer was said to have work on another project, she explained to Diddy. The memoir alleges the details made Diddy more irate, flipping over a table. After more of a tense conversation, Diddy allegedly hit her with a chair. Kim Porter would awake in a hospital.
“My arm was in a cast, hanging from a sling,” the doc reads. “My face hurt. My eyebrow was in immense pain, as was my lip. As I came to, the first face I saw, was of the man that put me here.
“Sean asked with concern in his voice, ‘How are you feeling?’ I responded, ‘Stay away from me.’”
The manuscript reads Diddy would apologize, stating: “I don’t know what came over me.”
Kim Porter, who shared three children with Diddy, passed away at 47 in her Los Angeles home on November 15, 2018. The medical examiner ruled her death as “natural,” citing lobar pneumonia as the cause.

Diddy, known also as Sean Combs, had his homes in Los Angeles and Miami raided on Monday (March 25) in connection to a federal sex trafficking investigation. A video of Diddy surfaced online and showed the mogul simply walking around a Miami airport.
TMZ shared the footage of Diddy, 54, walking around Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport and was reportedly stopped by law enforcement officials.
According to an eyewitness, Diddy was waiting on other people who were part of his entourage who too were stopped by investigators although it isn’t known if anything came of it. The Department of Homeland Security officers appeared on the scene while the Bad Boy Records honcho was on a private jet.
Rumors online persisted that Combs was attempting to flee the country but considering that he isn’t under arrest, it does not appear that Diddy is on the run.
Thus far, four Jane Does, and one John Doe have been questioned by the Southern District of New York, who is said to be leading the criminal investigation.
