A former Playboy model claims Diddy made her watch a music video by then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez, which played on repeat during a “Freak Off” in 2000.
“It seemed a little bit creepy to me, very disrespectful,” Rachel Kennedy claimed during the Friday, November 1, episode of The Daily Mail‘s “The Trial of Diddy” podcast. She also alleged that Diddy, 54, was on the phone with J. Lo, 55, during their encounter.
“It was kind of an odd thing to find out that we were watching [Lopez’s] video,” she added without naming the tune in question. Jennifer dropped her debut album, On the 6, one year prior. It featured the smash hits “If You Had My Love,” “Waiting for Tonight” and “Let’s Get Loud.”
Rachel said she and two of her friends met diddy at the topless club Seventh Heaven in Tokyo, Japan, where she worked as a dancer. The women were invited back to his hotel room for a party. But it turned out there weren’t any other guests, as Diddy opened the door wearing only a bathrobe holding a bottle of champagne.
“I realized before we even walked through the front door that it was just him. I was like, ‘This is not a party.’ This is not the kind of party that we were all expecting,” she explained.
“We went in. We didn’t think anything weird. He was friendly enough to where we decided, ‘OK, we’ll just hang out with him,'” Rachel continued.
“He took us to the bedroom and proceeded to get naked,” the former model alleged, saying the Bad Boy Records founder instructed them to perform oral sex on him. “And we just, we both did. We had quite a bit of champagne at that point. And we just did what he said.”
She and a friend went on to perform oral sex on Diddy, stressing that it “wasn’t forceful. It was just, he’s like, this is what I want.”
The situation became “angry and violent” when one of Diddy’s bodyguards came in and saw what was going on, becoming irate because he met one of the women the night prior.
“He said, ‘That’s my girl! That’s the girl from last night! What’s going on?’” Rachel recalled. “He was trying to, like, stomp us out of the room, grabbing at us, trying to just to get us out any way he could.”
Rachel said she and her friends fled the hotel room “in fear” for their lives after the encounter allegedly turned violent. Once in the lobby, she tried to call Diddy’s room multiple times from the house phone.
“He picked up, and I said, ‘What is going on here? Why was he trying to hurt us? Why was he so angry and violent,'” Rachel asked. “It was above and beyond a reaction that didn’t have to happen.”
“He just kept hanging up the phone. Years later, knowing now what I know now, I think we were more than lucky,” she added about the rapper.
Diddy was arrested and taken into custody by federal agents on September 16, following a months-long federal sex trafficking investigation that saw his Los Angeles and Miami homes raided in March.
In an unsealed indictment obtained by In Touch the following day, Diddy was hit with federal charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion. A grand jury alleged that the mogul had abused, threatened and coerced women and others around him to “fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation and conceal his conduct.”
The indictment accused the “All About the Benjamins” artist of a consistent and widespread pattern of mistreatment toward women, including verbal, physical and sexual abuse. He has remained in jail without bail since his arrest.
The document accused Diddy of manipulating and luring women to participate in “Freak Offs,” which were days-long, drug and alcohol fueled sex parties.
Diddy entered a not guilty plea and his lawyer, Marc Agnifilo, called the sexual activity described by prosecutors consensual.
