21 May 2024<\/time>\n<\/p>\nPeloton has reportedly “paused” the use of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ music and his series on its platform.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been dropped by Peloton<\/p>\n
\nThe 54-year-old rapper was hit by a wave of lawsuits in late 2023 and early 2024, including allegations of sex trafficking and sexual assault. <\/p>\n
\nThe cases remain active, and he has denied all claims against him.<\/p>\n
\nSince then, a video was released by CNN showing him launching a brutal attack on his 37-year-old ex, Cassie Ventura, at a now-closed Los Angeles hotel, and he’s issued a grovelling apology.<\/p>\n
\nNow, TMZ reports that Peloton wrote on its private members\u2019 Facebook group in response to a disgruntled user: \u201cWe take this issue very seriously and can confirm Peloton has paused the use of Sean Combs\u2019 music, as well as removed the Bad Boy Entertainment Artist Series, on our platform.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThis means our instructors are no longer using his music in any newly produced classes. Again, thank you for sharing your concerns and thank you for being a member of our Peloton community.”<\/p>\n
\nThe individual had commented: \u201cDear Peloton, Your next purge needs to be all Diddy classes. Signed, women everywhere.”<\/p>\n
\nCombs didn\u2019t mention Cassie directly by name in his apology video, which was released on Instagram, and used it to say it was hard for him to talk about \u201cdark\u201d times, before telling his followers he went into therapy and rehab and sought God\u2019s help after he battered Cassie.<\/p>\n
\nCombs said on Sunday (19.05.24) about the footage of him beating Cassie that he had hit \u201crock bottom\u201d when it was captured, adding he was disgusted with himself over the incident then and now.<\/p>\n
\nMeredith Firetog, a partner at Wigdor LLP, the legal firm representing Cassie, responded to Page Six in a statement: \u201cCombs\u2019 most recent statement is more about himself than the many people he has hurt.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nReferring to the mountain of other accusations of abuse Combs is currently facing, she added: \u201cWhen Cassie and multiple other women came forward, he denied everything and suggested that his victims were looking for a payday.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThat he was only compelled to \u2018apologise\u2019 once his repeated denials were proven false shows his pathetic desperation, and no one will be swayed by his disingenuous words.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nCassie had detailed the 2016 assault caught on tape in a bombshell 2023 lawsuit she lodged against Combs, which accused him of abuse.<\/p>\n
\nThe music mogul settled out of court over the claims a day after it was filed, but his legal team later said the settlement was in \u201cno way an admission of wrongdoing\u201d.<\/p>\n
\nFootage of him beating Cassie was captured on surveillance cameras at the InterContinental Hotel, showing him kicking her as she lay motionless on the ground before he hurled a glass vase at her after sitting watching her pick up her belongings after the initial attack.<\/p>\n
\nCassie\u2019s 2023 filing said Combs was \u201cextremely intoxicated\u201d at the time and had punched her \u201cin the face\u201d leaving a \u201cblack eye\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
