Diddy has yet another lawsuit that has come his way. Sara from Da Band has filed a $60 million dollar claim against him for harassment and more.



People is reporting that Sara Rivers, formerly known as Sara Stokes, who successfully landed a Bad Boy Entertainment record deal by competing on Making The Band, has filed a legal grievance against her former CEO. The lawsuit is 148 pages long and details how she alleged suffered under Diddy's tyranny during her run as the group's only vocalist.

In the complaint, she says that not only did Diddy harass her but also assaulted her. Rivers says she also had to work under inhumane conditions where Diddy frequently criticized her appearance and even made fun of her for having bulimia. She also infers that Diddy creeped her out on several occasions by talking to her so closely to "where he could kiss her and asks her in a low, sensual voice how she is doing, if she's ok and if she needed anything at all." The paperwork also states that Diddy was also guilty of "making physical threats to group members," and claims that he "threatened to eat the face of one person and kill another."

Diddy's legal team have denied the claims in an exclusive statement to People. "This is yet another example of false claims being filed against Mr. Combs. No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won't change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex trafficked anyone-man or woman, adult or minor," the communication reads. "We live in a world where anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason. With the deadline for New York's Gender-Motivated Violence Act expiring tomorrow, it's clear that opportunists are rushing to file last-minute, meritless claims. Mr. Combs remains confident he will prevail in court."

Diddy's federal trial is set to commence in May.
