Hay alleges that he encountered Diddy while working with CJ Wallace, Biggie Smalls’s son, on a remix project. However, he accused the disgraced mogul of assaulting him on two occasions, once in 2020 and again in 2021. In September 2020, he said that he was left alone with Diddy, who he claims masturbated into a shirt that Biggie once owned and told him to “come finish him off.” Diddy allegedly threw the shirt at Hay afterward.

Separately, Hay accused Diddy of forcing his penis into his mouth in March 2021 after labeling him a “snitch.” In this particular situation, Hay said that he was working with CJ on their project.

At this point, no charges against Diddy have been filed, but TMZ reports that the LAPD investigated the claims and presented the case to the D.A. If there’s enough evidence, then Diddy could potentially face new criminal charges.

The case was previously filed in Hay’s hometown in Florida. However, since the crimes were allegedly committed in L.A., the case was transferred.

Diddy’s Troubles Continue

Diddy is currently serving a 50-month sentence for violating the Mann Act following his highly publicized trial last year. The mogul was found guilty in a federal court of transporting people across state lines for sexual purposes. 

At this point, Diddy’s representatives have yet to comment on the possibility of fresh charges in L.A. We will keep you posted on any further updates on the matter.

On Monday, Joy put out a statement, alleging that the tape in question was filmed without consent. Furthermore, she said that she was being extorted and that the leaker demanded that she pay a lump sum to keep the video from being released.

After posting this statement, Joy quickly deleted it. This left many folks confused, with some wondering if Joy was asked to take the statement down for legal reasons. However, in the last 24 hours, Joy has been criticized for promoting her OnlyFans at an 85 percent discount. Furthermore, her latest Instagram post is raising some eyebrows.

As you will see below, Joy held a Q&A in which someone asked her, “Does size really matter?” Given the discourse surrounding Diddy in the leaked sex tape, the answering of this question feels especially intentional.

Interestingly enough, Joy put her response behind an OnlyFans paywall. You have to subscribe to her page to get a full answer. Once again, this has led to widespread criticism. Some feel as though this is exploitative of the situation, especially when you consider yesterday’s heartfelt statement.

“wtf was the statement for if you just gonna keep moving like this??” one person wrote on Instagram. “Posting this after that statement is horrendous.”

Ultimately, these social media posts have left people feeling icky. Given the subject matter at hand, this should not be a surprise.

Upon the video’s release, people online immediately remarked about the size of Diddy’s manhood. Fif couldn’t resist getting involved in this conversation, as he clowned the music mogul.

“Free Diddy he has gone through enough being born with no Penis,” 50 Cent wrote.

Celina Powell saw 50 Cent’s post and decided to chime in with a burn of her own. Powell has claimed to have been with a plethora of famous artists over the years, 50 included. With that being said, she made the claim that Fif’s manhood is just as small as Diddy’s.

“Yours was no bigger my love,” Powell replied.

Celina Powell is someone with a bit of a dubious reputation, all things considered. She infamously lied about being pregnant with Offset’s child. Of course, she did so while Cardi B was pregnant herself. This led to lots of stress and widespread headlines about the couple’s relationship.

Powell understands how to get attention in today’s social media environment, and this situation is no different. The Diddy and Daphne Joy sex tape leak is one of the biggest stories in hip-hop right now.

The situation has been trending since Sunday morning, and it is showing absolutely no signs of slowing down. As for 50 Cent, it remains to be seeen whether or not he cares to refute Powell’s claim.

Sauce Walka has pushed back against claims that he’s jealous of Drake while providing screen recordings of text messages to prove his point. However, Kylie has shared more receipts that paint him as more than frustrated about her supposed relationship with Drake. 

In one point, she shared a photo of herself in front of a Maybach that Drake allegedly gifted her. “This maybach, the one HE BEAT UP BECAUSE DRAKE BOUGHT IT. HA PATHETIC,” she wrote.

Another alleged voice recording of Sauce Walka hears him going off as he threatens to embarrass Drake on the internet if he doesn’t keep his name out of his mouth. At this point, Drake himself hasn’t said or addressed anything regarding the matter, at least directly, but some fans have started pointing out how some lyrics from “JANICE STFU” might have been directed toward the Houston rapper.

Did Drake Throw Subs At Sauce Walka On ICEMAN?

Fans suspect that Drake’s bars on his latest #1 song, “JANICE STFU” might be directed at Sauce Walka, especially when he raps, “​​Trickin’ it off on her, payin’ her bill/That’s just how I do the sauce and the spill.” Considering that purchasing a Maybach for a woman is probably the highest level of tricking, it doesn’t seem too far off. What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.

That said, on their Netflix podcast, the two ride hard for Drake. In the eyes of some, this runs counter to Jay-Z, who dissed the Canadian megastar during his Roots Picnic freestyle.

On Monday, Tasha K found herself stirring the pot, claiming that Hov kicked Rory & Mal out of his Roots Picnic section. Tasha K then went on to claim that the podcast duo is signed to Roc Nation.

“WHOA! Just got word that Jayz allegedly KICKED Rory & Mall out of his section at the Roots Picnic! He allegedly told them I thought you both were Drake FANS! Then proceeded to kick them out! This is bad news considering they are Roc Nation Talent! Signed to him,” Tasha K wrote. “Everything is allegedly! Even my name is allegedly!”

As you can imagine, Rory & Mal got wind of this report and offered up a response.

Rory & Mal Respond

As Mal hilariously explains, he was at home watching Game 7 between the San Antonio Spurs and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Meanwhile, Rory mocked the notion that Jay would seek him out just to call him out for being a Drake fan.

Subsequently, Rory & Mal made it crystal clear that they are not signed to Roc Nation, nor have they ever been. They then said that they can understand why Tasha K is constantly dealing with lawsuits, given just how dubious her reporting is here.

So there you have it, Rory & Mal were not kicked out of the Roots Picnic. Whether or not Tasha K will respond to the refutation remains to be seen.

Since that time, Joy has confirmed that the woman on the tape is indeed her. However, she also alleged that the tape was filmed without her consent. She also says the leak was part of a larger extortion plot in which someone demanded her to pay money to stop the video from coming out.

In the aftermath of all of this, Joy is now facing some criticism. On X, DJ Vlad revealed that Joy is currently promoting her OnlyFans at an 85 percent discount. Some feel as though this is in poor taste, especially given the model’s recent statement on the matter.

For instance, Ben Baller responded to Vlad, saying, “This bih is so full of shit. For the 16+ years I’ve known her , her entire persona has been opportunity and marketing her sexuality to get ahead. She shouldn’t have even addressed it.”

Daphne Joy Reacts To Sex Tape Leak

As we mentioned previously, Joy posted and deleted a statement on Monday morning in relation to the sex tape leak. It was here where she alleged that the video was non-consensual. She also states that she was in love with Diddy at the time and was willing to do anything to satisfy him. However, she now realizes that the relationship was allegedly abusive and that she can never let herself be in that spot again.

At this time, Joy’s statement on the matter remains absent from her Instagram.

Given Jay’s history with Drake, there has been this prevailing notion that a rap beef is about to begin. The expectation is that Drake is going to level some kind of response. With rumors of a Scary Hours 4 release coming soon, it feels as though a response is certainly possible. However, there is no guarantee that this escalates further.

On the latest episode of Rory & Mal, Mal was able to offer some insight into Drake’s current psyche. In fact, Mal reveals Drake reached out to him following Jay-Z’s performance. However, instead of commenting on the bars, Drizzy had one thing in mind. “Yo, but what’s up with the hair?” Drake exclaimed.

Drake Reacts To Jay-Z

Jay-Z’s new hairstyle certainly grabbed some attention over the weekend. However, the real story should be the bars, and the fact that Jay appears ready for whatever response comes his way. Whether that be Drake, Nicki, or even Tory.

Elsewhere in the episode, Mal revealed that Jermaine Dupri called him to demand that he pick a side in the Drake and Jay situation. Of course, Mal has family ties to Jay, yet has chosen Drake every step of the way. Ten years ago, that would not have been the case. As it turns out, Dupri isn’t happy with Mal’s decision to go Team OVO. “Pick a side of the family,” Dupri allegedly said.

If Kendrick Lamar and Drake caused a rap civil war, then Jay-Z and Drake could create something way bigger. However, fans are simply going to have to be patient. Based on what Mal recently said, Drake appears to be in no rush to make a hasty decision.

“Serena is one of the greatest athletes of all-time, with a legacy that extends far beyond the court,” WTA chair Valerie Camillo stated. “Her return is an expression of her passion for competition, and I cannot wait to see her face a new generation of top players.” She added, “Serena is not just a great champion. She’s a successful entrepreneur, a powerful advocate for the issues that matter — and one of the most iconic women in the world. We are thrilled to welcome her back to the WTA Tour at this hugely exciting moment for women’s tennis.”

Any return from Serena carries significance beyond wins and losses. She remains one of the most decorated athletes in tennis history, with 23 major singles titles, four Olympic gold medals, and more than 300 weeks at the top of the world rankings. Whether this comeback leads to a larger return or proves to be a one-off appearance, Williams has once again managed to command the attention of the sporting world, a reminder that some athletes never truly leave the conversation, no matter how long they’ve been away.

One can’t imagine how difficult recent years have been for Lashawnda Woodard. While watching her son Lil Durk become one of Chicago’s biggest Rap stars, she has also witnessed a staggering amount of loss. In 2021, Durk’s older brother, Dontay “DThang” Banks Jr., was shot and killed outside a suburban Chicago nightclub. It was a tragedy that devastated the family and added to the long list of loved ones the rapper has mourned publicly throughout his career.

Today, Woodard faces another painful chapter as her son remains behind bars awaiting trial on federal murder-for-hire charges. Durk has been locked up since October 2024 after prosecutors accused him of involvement in a plot connected to the 2022 killing of Saviay’a “Lul Pab” Robinson, the cousin of rapper Quando Rondo. He has pleaded not guilty and continues fighting the charges. For a mother who has already buried one son, the uncertainty surrounding Lil Durk’s future adds another layer of heartbreak. During a recent sitdown with the Victim or Villain podcast, she gave updates on how she’s maintained throughout this ordeal.

“It’s like I lost another child,” Woodard began. “It hurts. It hurts, like—I couldn’t believe it. And, I knew something [was wrong] because I kept calling his phone, and he don’t answer. And then I called his sisters, ‘Have you heard from him?’ They like, nah. I text him but…so, finally I got the call. And I’m like, ‘Oh my god.'” She added that it was Durk who rang her line to inform her about his legal situation.

At the time, the rapper was in Florida, and Woodard said that it took a “couple of days” for her Durk to call her. The host went on to call Durk one of the kindest celebrities she’s ever met. She also said that he loves his kids and cares about giving back to the community that raised him.

“Every time I talk to him, it’s never serious. So, he’s doing pretty good,” Woodard replied. When asked if Durk cut off his locs, his mother confirmed that “he did.” Check out the full episode of Lashawnda Woodard on the Victim or Villain podcast below.
