Kalenna Harper isn’t holding back about her former groupmate Dawn Richard.

Harper, who was part of the late 2000s group Diddy-Dirty Money with Richard and disgraced mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, appeared on the Oct. 30 episode of Breakout Media’s Trappin Anonymous” podcast. 

During the interview, Harper double-downed on comments that she never witnessed questionable behavior by Diddy and she bashed Richard, who recently filed a lawsuit against the mogul.

Harper said the only “weird” thing she witnessed during her time with the group was Richard’s behavior.

“I don’t f–k with Dawn like that and I’m going to f–king stand on business, I didn’t see any of that,” said Harper about Richard’s abuse allegations.

“What I saw was, ‘What the f–k is going on with you, because you’re acting weird, you’re a weird b–h,’ is what I see. And it’s a list of ni–as, where y’all at, talk about it. Dawn’s a weird motherf–ker,” Harper added.

On Sept. 10, Richard filed a civil lawsuit in federal court against Diddy, alleging sexual battery, false imprisonment, and other crimes.

The complaint mentioned Harper 33 times as a witness to some of Diddy’s alleged depraved behavior. 

Three days later, on Sept. 13, Harper released a statement on social media that contradicted Dawn’s claims and said the incidents described in the lawsuit “do not align with my own truth.”

In the podcast interview, Harper said Diddy is someone she admires and “always wanted to be like.” 

She also criticized his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, who filed a 35-page lawsuit against the mogul in November 2023 alleging rape, domestic violence, and sex trafficking.

“Love her to death — naïve, liked getting high. She likes partying. I saw Cassie grow up from a little girl that was willing to, like, give everybody motherf–ing you know, lap dances, basically. You know, get drunk and just have a good, like, model time,” Harper said about the “Me & U” singer.

Diddy settled Cassie’s lawsuit after one day. Although his attorneys said the settlement was “not an admission of wrongdoing.”

Meanwhile, Richard’s lawsuit alleged she and Harper witnessed Diddy abusing Cassie — a claim that Harper disputes.

The mogul was arrested on Sept. 16 in New York City on federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges. He has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

The 54-year-old Bad Boy Records founder is currently jailed at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

Combs was previously denied bail twice and has filed an appeal. A federal judge has set a May 5, 2025 trial date for the mogul.
