Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs accused of ‘grooming & sex trafficking former porn star Adria English’ in bombshell new lawsuit
A FORMER porn star has filed a lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs, claiming that the music mogul threatened to blacklist her if she didn’t have sex with guests at his many lavish parties.
Adria English, who performed under the name Omunique, claims she and her then-boyfriend met Combs in 2004 at a modeling audition for his fashion company, Sean John.
English claims that her interactions with Combs became sexual immediately after the meeting, according to the lawsuit obtained by The U.S. Sun.
Combs allegedly asked English’s boyfriend and another model to perform oral sex on him to get the job, however, the boyfriend refused.
He got a second chance after one of Comb’s associates offered him the job on the condition that English work as a “go-go dancer” at a white party Combs was hosting in the Hamptons on New York‘s Long Island, read the lawsuit.
The couple agreed, and English worked at the party over Labor Day weekend 2004, according to the suit.
The U.S. Sun viewed the lawsuit, and it contained photos of the plaintiff at the apparent event.
English claimed she worked at Combs’ other parties, where she was forced to drink alcoholic beverages laced with narcotics such as ecstasy and was told to flirt with guests.
While she didn’t initially have sex with guests, English claims she was “groomed” by Combs into sex trafficking over time.
She claims that Combs demanded she have sex with well-regarded jewelry and watch designer Jacob Arabov – also known as Jacob the Jeweler.
In the lawsuit, filed by attorneys Ariel Mitchell-Kidd and Steven Metcalf, English had “forced sexual intercourse” with Arabov and was paid an extra $1,000 on top of what she was normally given for working for Combs’ parties.
English claims that Combs personally congratulated her for having sex with Arabov, who is also listed as a defendant in the lawsuit.
‘PASSED OFF’
The lawsuit also named Tamiko Thomas, a self-proclaimed executive producer and brand strategist, as a defendant.
She was allegedly responsible for transporting and making payments to English “in furtherance of a corrupt organization of sex trafficking on behalf of Defendant Combs,” read the document.
The lawsuit claims that without Thomas “using her inherent good will as a woman to gain the trust of another woman,” Combs wouldn’t have been able to commit the alleged acts against English.
Thomas and Combs allegedly passed English off to guests at Combs’ parties to be sexually assaulted “as part of their ongoing corrupt sex trafficking organization,” the lawsuit read.
The lawsuit compared Thomas and Combs to Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein.
English claims Combs demanded her to perform these acts with the promise that he’d advance her career.
One of these promises involved supposedly helping English enter the music industry as a member of a girl group, according to the lawsuit.
