An unnamed male celebrity accused Buzbee and his firm on Monday, November 18, of \u201cshamelessly attempting to extort exorbitant sums from him or else publicly file wildly false horrific allegations [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cThese allegations are so heinous in nature that I implore you to file a criminal complaint, not a civil one!! Whomever would commit such a crime against a minor should be locked away, would you not agree?\u201d the statement continued. \u201cThese alleged victims would deserve real justice if that were the case.\u201d (Jay-Z\u2019s statement was also shared via Roc Nation\u2019s official Instagram account.)<\/p>\n
\u201cThis amended complaint and the recent extortion lawsuit against Mr. Buzbee exposes his barrage of lawsuits against Mr. Combs for what they are: shameless publicity stunts, designed to extract payments from celebrities who fear having lies spread about them, just as lies have been spread about Mr. Combs,\u201d Diddy\u2019s attorneys said in a statement to Us<\/em> on Sunday. \u201cAs his legal team has said before, Mr. Combs has full confidence in the facts and the integrity of the judicial process. In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs never sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone \u2014 man or woman, adult or minor.\u201d<\/p>\n
