Joseph had earlier claimed that the famous industry couple, Jay-Z and Beyonc\u00e9, had seen him in a bizarre situation at Diddy\u2019s party in 2015. According to TMZ, he filed a new version of his lawsuit on April 11, 2025, and surprisingly dropped the Carters from the accusations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Also read:<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/entertainment\/hollywood\/iron-man-actor-accuses-sean-diddy-combs-of-trying-to-coerce-him-into-having-sex-9931158\/\" class=\"\"> Iron Man actor accuses Sean \u2018Diddy\u2019 Combs of trying to coerce him into having sex<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><ev-engagement group-name=\"contentLogin\"\/><ev-engagement group-name=\"myNotification\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"ev-meter-content ie-premium-content-block\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Joseph\u2019s original claim was that during a 2015 birthday party in Miami for<a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/news-today\/sean-diddy-combs-hit-new-sex-trafficking-charges-trial-9925726\/\" class=\"\"> Diddy\u2019s then-teenage son, King Combs<\/a>, he was drugged and forced to wear a disturbing mask. He said Beyonc\u00e9 saw him and asked, \u201cWhy is this half-naked white man with a mask standing here in front of me?\u201d In the same lawsuit, he also name-dropped LeBron James and even Gloria and Emilio Estefan for being one of the party attendees where Diddy ran a kind of secret, underground operation involving drugs and forced sex acts. However, in his new lawsuit, there\u2019s no mention of Beyonc\u00e9 or Jay-Z.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"osv-ad-class\" style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;height: 375px;margin-bottom: 15px;\">\n<p>Story continues below this ad<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Also read:<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/explained\/explained-culture\/sean-diddy-combs-arrest-9573118\/\" class=\"\"> Who is Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs and why is his arrest significant?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"ie-video-container\">\n<p>ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW VIDEO<\/p>\n<div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"1mNLGW5gcFU\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"LIVE - Orhan Awatramani Aka Orry on Gender, Politics &amp; His Love for Donald Trump |#TheSuvirSaranShow\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1mNLGW5gcFU?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to reports, Jay-Z\u2019s lawyer, Alex Spiro, warned Joseph\u2019s lawyer that he couldn\u2019t make false claims about the couple. Spiro apparently provided solid proof that Jay and Bey were nowhere near Miami in April 2015. This is the second time Jay-Z has been cleared of similar accusations. As of now, no apology from Joseph, just a quiet legal update and a backtrack. And while the Carters have got their names cleared, LeBron James and the Estefans are still named in the original version of the lawsuit. Earlier, the representatives of the celebs outright denied the claims of their involvement. According to them, LeBron was allegedly playing for the Cavs at the time and wasn\u2019t even in Miami, and as for the Estefans, they said no parties ever happened at their home between 2012 and 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Also read:<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/news-today\/sean-diddy-combs-hit-new-sex-trafficking-charges-trial-9925726\/\" class=\"\"> Sean \u2018Diddy\u2019 Combs hit with new sex trafficking charges a month before trial<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is not the first Diddy case where Jay Z had been dragged in. Earlier, a woman who had accused both Diddy and Jay-Z of assaulting her back in 2000 also quietly dismissed her lawsuit last month. The woman identified as Jane Doe, had claimed that she was drugged and assaulted by both Diddy and the Brooklyn-based rapper during an afterparty of the VMAs when she was 13. At the time, Jay Z himself released a statement denying the claims and calling it a \u201cmoney-grab.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"adboxtop adsizes\">\n<p>Story continues below this ad<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI would not wish this experience on anyone.

Diddy has pleaded not guilty and is currently sitting in Brooklyn jail, waiting for trial, scheduled in May.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script>\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n{if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\nif(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\nn.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\ns.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '444470064056909');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/entertainment\/hollywood\/beyonce-and-jay-z-removed-from-diddy-lawsuit-as-accuser-backtracks-on-freak-off-party-claim-lebron-james-remains-listed-9939713\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of Diddy\u2019s accusers, Manzaro Joseph, who sued the disgraced American rapper Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs just months before his sex trafficking and racketeering trial, has now made some amendments to the lawsuit.
