Sean “Diddy” Combs was accused of rape and more than a decade of abuse by ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in a November lawsuit, which was “amicably” settled one day after being filed.
Tiffany Red, Cassie’s songwriter, claimed to have witnessed Diddy’s explosive behaviour while the former couple were in a relationship. The Bad Boy Records executive was 39 years old when he began romancing the rising star, who was 19 at the time.
Red recalled one night in 2015 when she was in the car with Cassie on a drive to pick up McDonald’s, and witnessed the singer receive an irate phone call from the “Last Night” rapper.
“I remember her being like, ‘Want to see something crazy?’” Red said during ABC’s “Secret Life of Diddy – A Special Edition of 20/20.”
“She answered the phone, and as soon as she answered … ‘B***h, where the f**k are you?’ He was so upset that she was out. I remember him screaming and saying, ‘Is somebody in the car with you? I know someone is in the car with you.’”
“So that was my first time being like, something is wrong,” she said.
Red remembered witnessing Diddy cornering and “cussing” at Cassie during her 29th birthday party in 2015.
“I walked out of this room, and right behind the door, his security is around him, and he’s in her face, and he’s cussing her out,” she said. “He was really mad, and he was really close to her face, and she just had her head down.
“When I was standing over to the side, she just was kind of looking up at me. My sense was that everybody around him was afraid of him … cause he was explosive.”
When asked why no one would step up to the disgraced music mogul, Redd questioned, “What are you going to do?”
She continued, “He’s got the key to the city, he’s friends with the politicians … who’s going to challenge that? And when? And be believed?”
Red believed that Diddy was “using the music to control Cassie” as he had promised to release her album for nearly a decade, with no catalogue to show for it.
“It was never gonna come out, it was never supposed to come out,” Red said. “The only time he was willing to really talk about the plans for her music was during the freak offs.”
The “Missing You” singer accused officials on Wednesday of leaking the 2016 surveillance video from the Intercontinental Hotel to CNN, which allegedly showed Combs assaulting Cassie Ventura.
The government denied being the source of the leak in a separate filing. Combs “kicked dragged, and threw a vase at a woman as she was attempting to leave,” the indictment said. “When a member of the hotel security staff intervened, Combs attempted to bribe the staff member to ensure silence.”
