"Hi, my name is Jaimie Ding, and I’m a reporter at the Associated Press. Here’s the latest development in the wave of sexual assault allegations against the rapper Sean Diddy Combs, which is now being linked to fellow rapper Jay-Z. Jay-Z says that a new rape allegation made against him is part of an extortion attempt. The allegation comes as part of a lawsuit from a woman who alleges that Sean Combs raped her at an awards show after-party in 2000 when she was 13. Her lawyer amended the lawsuit on Sunday to include Jay-Z and a new allegation that he was at the party and also participated in the sexual assault."

"Jay-Z has responded in a statement calling these allegations idiotic and heinous in nature. He’d previously anonymously sued the woman’s lawyer in California, alleging that the attorney was trying to blackmail him by threatening to make the rape allegations public unless he agreed to a legal settlement. His lawyer also argued on Monday that the woman, who was only identified as Jane Doe, should have to make her identity public or have her lawsuit dismissed. The woman is being represented by a famous trial attorney in Houston named Tony Buzbee, who is representing around 120 men and women in allegations of sexual misconduct against Sean Combs."

STORYLINE:
The rapper Jay-Z says a rape allegation made against him is part of an extortion attempt.
A woman who previously sued Sean “Diddy” Combs, alleging she was raped at an awards show afterparty in 2000 when she was 13, amended the lawsuit Sunday to include a new allegation that Jay-Z was also at the party and participated in the sexual assault.
Jay-Z called the allegations “idiotic” and “heinous in nature" in a statement released by one of his companies. He also revealed that he had anonymously sued the woman’s lawyer, Tony Buzbee, in California, alleging Buzbee was trying to blackmail him by threatening to make the rape allegation public if he didn’t agree to a legal settlement.
Jay-Z said a letter his lawyer received from Buzbee appeared to seek a settlement but had the “opposite effect."
“It made me want to expose you for the fraud you are in a VERY public fashion,” his statement read. “So no, I will not give you ONE RED PENNY!!”
The litigation is part of a wave of sexual assault lawsuits levied against Combs as the hip-hop mogul remains in custody in New York awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges.
She said that Combs and Jay Z, whose legal name is Shawn Carter, then barged into the room along with another unnamed celebrity and raped her.
