Diddy Caught On Tape Assaulting Cassie Ventura [Video]
Surveillance footage has revealed Sean “Diddy” Combs allegedly engaging in a physical altercation with his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in 2016 at the InterContinental Hotel Century City in Los Angeles.y
The video was obtained by CNN on Friday.
The video captures Ventura walking briskly down a hallway, carrying a purse and a small duffel bag, while Combs, wearing only socks and a towel around his waist, is seen running after her.
In the footage, the rapper, who is currently facing sexual abuse allegations from multiple women, is seen encountering Ventura at the elevator lobby.
He allegedly grabs her by the back of the neck, throws her to the ground, kicks her, takes her bags, and kicks her again before dragging her back toward the hallway.
Combs then retrieves Ventura’s bags and returns to the hotel room, while she uses a hotel phone by the elevators.
He later appears to shove her into a corner and throws an object at her off-camera.
According to Ventura’s lawyer, Douglas Wigdor, the newly revealed video reinforces the disturbing and predatory behavior exhibited by Mr. Combs.
He said “gut-wrenching video has only further confirmed the disturbing and predatory behavior of Mr. Combs. Words cannot express the courage and fortitude that Ms. Ventura has shown in coming forward to bring this to light.”
Ventura, who began her on-and-off relationship with Combs in the early 2000s when she was 19 and he was 37, settled her lawsuit against him just one day after filing it last November.
The suit alleged repeated physical and sexual abuse over more than a decade.
At the time, Combs “vehemently” denied the allegations, as stated by his attorney, Ben Brafman.
Following the settlement, Brafman emphasized that the undisclosed agreement did not constitute an admission of wrongdoing on Combs’ part.
Brafman did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment regarding the footage published by CNN.
Following Ventura’s public allegations, numerous other women have come forward with similar accusations against Combs, all of which he has denied.
In March, Homeland Security agents conducted raids on multiple properties associated with the rapper.
While the exact nature of the raids remains unclear, a senior federal law enforcement official informed CNN that the team responsible for the raids typically handles cases related to human trafficking crimes.

Nigerian singer Orezi has sparked discussions on relationship dynamics after revealing that he once received ₦30 million from a woman who simply admired him.
Speaking in an interview on The Echoroom, the Rihanna crooner recounted the unexpected experience, explaining that the generous woman, whom he met in Abuja, sent him the money the day after they had fun at a club.
“The highest amount of money I’ve received from a woman? I don’t want to mention the amount I received, but okay. It was 30 million Naira, back in Abuja. I wasn’t married to her or anything, she just liked me.”

Orezi emphasized that the money was given freely, without him asking or being in a committed relationship with the woman.
“It’s not like I needed money, I have money, but she just gave me. We weren’t dating, but we had something going on. I was shocked, I can’t lie.”
The singer also pointed out that men, especially celebrities, sometimes receive financial gifts from admirers, just as attractive women often benefit from admiration.
“A lot of artistes enjoy things like that, it’s a normal thing. The same way pretty women enjoy pretty privileges; men enjoy it too. In fact, there was a friend I had in university whose school fees and provisions were handled by a woman. It’s a topic swept under the carpet a lot; women do things for men a lot.”

A social media controversy has erupted after media strategist Esther Ijewere accused Nollywood actress Dayo Amusa of plagiarism.
Ijewere alleged that Amusa lifted her Facebook post about singer Asake and shared it on her own platforms without giving credit.
The original post, which Ijewere published on March 15 at 1:15 a.m., reflected on Asake’s childhood struggles, family issues, and the emotional impact of fame.

Later that same day, Amusa reportedly posted the exact same words on her Facebook and Instagram pages, with no acknowledgment of the original author.
Seeing her words being circulated under Amusa’s name, Ijewere publicly called out the actress, demanding proper credit.
She wrote:”Dear Dayo Amusa, You took my post from my Facebook page and shared it as your own on Facebook and Instagram without giving me proper credit. Please, do the right thing and acknowledge my work. It’s important to respect and credit the original creator.”
Following the backlash, Amusa deleted the post from Facebook but left it up on Instagram, where it continued to generate reactions. By that time, several blogs had already attributed the words to Amusa, further frustrating Ijewere.
In response, Amusa dismissed the allegations, claiming she found the post on a friend’s WhatsApp status and did not know who originally wrote it.
She insisted that her #copied hashtag at the end of her post indicated she was not taking credit for the words.
Replying to Ijewere’s call-out, Amusa wrote: “E dey pain you say I no tag your name abi. Pele baby!!! Like I told you in your DM earlier, I don’t know you, let alone knowing you were the original writer. It was copied from a friend’s WhatsApp, and I even screenshot am for you to see.”
She also mocked the situation, adding: “How market? Enjoying the gbasgbos? Have fun and enjoy it while it lasts.”
The controversy has sparked mixed reactions online. Some social media users believe Amusa should have given proper credit to Ijewere, while others argue that using #copied was enough to indicate that she wasn’t claiming ownership of the words.
