Rapper Jay-Z has filed a new lawsuit against the Alabama woman who accused him of sexual assault, alleging she fabricated the claim and conspired with her lawyers to extort him.
Jay-Z has filed a hard-hitting new defamation and malicious prosecution lawsuit against the Alabama-based Jane Doe who publicly accused him of sexual assault. The lawsuit alleges that Doe, along with her lawyers, Tony Buzbee and David Fortney , engaged in an “evil conspiracy” to extort Jay-Z with a “completely fabricated” and “wildly horrific” claim.
The woman first revealed her accusation in an interview where she alleged that Combs and an unidentified male celebrity took turns violently raping her at an afterparty for the MTV Video Music Awards when she was 13 years old. She filed a lawsuit against Combs and the unidentified male celebrity. According to Carter’s new lawsuit, representatives for the Grammy-winning rapper made direct contact with Doe recently, and she allegedly admitted she concocted her claim about Carter and felt pressured by her legal team to repeat it during an on-camera interview with NBC News in mid-December. That NBC interview maintained Doe’s anonymity but exposed several notable discrepancies in her account. For instance, while the woman claimed she met musician Benji Madden at the same party, it turns out Madden was in another state on tour at the time. Doe’s father also disputed her claim that he picked her up in a vehicle after the alleged assault. The father said he lived far upstate at the time and would have remembered driving more than five hours to retrieve his daughter. “Doe has now voluntarily admitted directly to representatives of Mr. Carter that the story brought before the world in court and on global television was just that: a false, malicious story,” Carter’s new lawsuit claims. “She has admitted that Mr. Carter did not assault her; and that indeed it was Buzbee himself – whom she met for the first time at a coffee shop in Houston on the day of her maliciously false NBC News interview – who pushed her to go forward with the false narrative of the assault by Mr. Carter in order to leverage a maximum payday.” The lawsuit also alleges that Buzbee’s firm sent him an “extortionate” demand letter on Nov. 5, 2024, requesting a private mediation ahead of a planned lawsuit. Carter claims the letter threatened financial and personal devastation if he didn’t work out a deal to “silence” Doe. Buzbee previously denied any wrongdoing in court filings opposing separate extortion and defamation claims filed against him by Carter in Los Angeles County. A prominent Texas lawyer who has boasted he’s collected more than $10 billion in damages for his clients, Buzbee last September announced he had more than 120 clients with allegedly credible claims against Combs who went through a “stringent” vetting process. He has since filed more than two dozen lawsuits against the Bad Boy Records founder who’s currently in federal custody. Carter’s new lawsuit repeats the allegation that Buzbee’s firm sent him an “extortionate” demand letter on Nov. 5, 2024, requesting a private mediation ahead of a planned lawsuit. Carter claims the letter threatened financial and personal devastation if he didn’t work out a deal to “silence” Doe
