One of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ accusers is speaking out for the first time.
In an interview posted online Wednesday, Dec. 11, an anonymous John Doe sat down with CNN and described an alleged assault by the embattled music mogul at one of his infamous “white parties” in 2007.
The man is the mogul’s first civil accuser to do an on-camera television interview. Doe alleged he was given spiked drinks at the party before being assaulted.
“The first drink started to have some effect on me and I just thought, ‘Wow these are really strong drinks.’ It wasn’t until the second drink — and it was already too late — that I realized that there was something wrong with the drinks,” said Doe who, was shown in silhouette.
He added, “Sadly, Sean Combs was waiting in the wings. He was watching from some sort of vantage point and once I was in a helpless position and he was sure that he was in a position of power, then he took advantage of the situation.”

Doe later went into detail about the alleged assault.
“I was screaming, I was telling him to stop,” he said. “It was incredibly painful, and he was acting like it was nothing and he seemed to be disconnected from it. But it was abusive beyond belief.”
Doe, who was working security at the party, then told CNN he reported the alleged incident to his supervisor and was later “blacklisted.”
“He just dismissed it and said, ‘I’ll talk to [Diddy],’” Doe said about his supervisor. “After that, he didn’t talk to me again, he cut me out of everything … I was totally blacklisted after that. I had to find a different field.”
Doe filed a lawsuit against Diddy on Oct. 14, which said he was employed by a private security firm in 2007, when he was asked to work at one of the Bad Boy Records founder’s parties at his estate in East Hampton, New York. Doe said he was allegedly drugged and sodomized by Combs at the party.
In the suit, he said he has struggled with emotional pain and mental health issues in the years since the alleged incident. He is seeking compensatory and punitive damages.
Doe’s complaint was filed along with several other anonymous accusers who are all represented by attorney Tony Buzbee.
As previously reported, the Texas-based attorney said during an Oct. 1 news conference that he is representing 120 Diddy accusers.
Following CNN’s publication of the story, attorneys for Combs responded to Doe’s amended complaint in a statement to the network.
The attorneys mentioned a statement that Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter released earlier this week after Buzbee filed a complaint accusing the rapper of taking turns raping a 13-year-old girl with Combs.
“After Buzbee was exposed this week for pressuring clients to bring bogus cases against Mr. Combs, and after public records showed that — contrary to his allegations — there was no white party in the Hamptons in 2006, Buzbee amended this complaint to walk back the allegations and now claim a different day and wholly different year,” Combs’ attorneys wrote in their statement.
Diddy was arrested on Sept. 16 in New York City on federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
He is currently jailed in the Metropolitan Detention Center, after being denied bail by three different judges.
His trial is scheduled for May 5, 2025.
