Adria English, a former porn star and dancer, has accused music producer Sean “Diddy” Combs of forcing her into sexual acts at his well-known parties, called “freak offs.”
In a recent interview with the Daily Mail, English, 46, mentioned seeing famous people like Donald Trump, Diana Ross, and Rev. Al Sharpton at these events.
Earlier this year, English sued Combs, saying he tricked her into becoming a victim of sex trafficking while she worked at his parties almost 20 years ago.
She said these parties, held in the Hamptons and Miami, were where Combs allegedly made her have sex with some of the guests.
During the interview, English named some celebrities she saw at the parties. “I saw Busta Rhymes, Ja Rule, and Diana Ross with her underage son, Evan,” she shared. “I also saw Paris Hilton and Rev. Al Sharpton. I still wonder why Rev. Sharpton was there.”
She also claimed to have seen Donald Trump, who later became the U.S. president, at one of these parties. English worked at eight of Combs’ parties over five years but did not name anyone she allegedly had to sleep with.
It’s important to note that there’s no evidence that the celebrities English named did anything wrong, or knew about any of the misconduct.
Many of them were photographed at the events, and these photos have resurfaced since Combs was recently arrested on federal charges, including sex trafficking and promoting prostitution.
English, who used the name Omunique in adult films, first met Combs in 2004 when she was hired to dance at one of his big Hamptons white parties.
At first, she thought she was just there to dance, but she said things became worse. In her lawsuit, she claims she was sexually assaulted at a party in Miami, under Combs’ orders.
Her claims match up with what prosecutors said in a federal case last month. They accuse Combs of using drugs to control women and get them to take part in violent sexual acts, which were sometimes recorded without their consent.
Combs was arrested in September at a New York hotel by federal agents. He’s been charged with several crimes, including sex trafficking, and is being held without bail.

His legal team has denied all the charges, calling English’s accusations “baseless.” A spokesperson for Combs said, “Anyone can file a lawsuit without evidence, and this case is a perfect example of that.”
Combs’ team also noted that English’s lawyer recently dropped her, saying her behavior made it hard to continue with the case. However, English is still moving forward with her claims.
She says that after she stopped working for Combs in 2009 and moved to California, he blocked her from opportunities in the music industry.
English explained that when she first went to the parties, she was excited about the guest list.
“I agreed to go because it was an exclusive event with people like Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and Diddy,” she said. “I didn’t know it would turn into anything sexual.”
Combs is currently waiting for his trial, and the investigation is still ongoing.As the investigation continues, more information may come out, but for now, Combs has pleaded not guilty to the charges against him. This news was originally reported by Daily Mail
