Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing another sexual assault lawsuit amid his ongoing legal woes.
According to a suit obtained by Us Weekly on Friday, December 20, LaTroya Grayson is suing the rap mogul over a 2006 incident where she was allegedly drugged and raped at a Diddy party. (TMZ was the first to report the news.)
It all began when Grayson’s sibling won a contest through an Oklahoma radio station. The prize included round-trip airfare for a winner and guest, a hotel room in New York City and two tickets to attend Diddy’s “White Party.”
Grayson alleges in court documents that she and her sibling went to the party, which was changed to a “Black Party.” The alleged victim said she was allowed to get inside the event while her sibling was left outside.

After having two drinks at the party, Grayson said she began to feel sick and headed to the restroom.
Grayson said in court documents she has no recollection of the rest of the night but remembers waking up at Saint Vincent’s Medical Center in New York with a ripped shirt and no underwear.
After flying back to Oklahoma, Grayson said in court documents she received a call from an anonymous female who allegedly told her not to pursue action against Diddy because he was a “celebrity” and she would just be “wasting her time.”
TMZ also reported that Grayson’s attorney Ariel Mitchell said that her client chose not to report a rape at the time out of fear and confusion.
In a statement to TMZ, Diddy’s team denied Grayson’s allegations, saying: “Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone or engaged in sex trafficking. Ms. Grayson admits she has no memory of the events alleged in her complaint, does not know who was supposedly involved, and has never spoken to Mr. Combs. Her allegations against him are pure fiction. As we’ve said before, Mr. Combs cannot respond to every baseless lawsuit and lawyer-driven money grab. He has faith in the judicial process, in which fact will be separated from opportunistic fabrications like these.”
According to her filing, Grayson doesn’t remember anything about the alleged assault. She also never mentions actually seeing or speaking with Diddy at the event.
The lawsuit comes after Diddy was arrested in September for sex trafficking, racketeering and other alleged crimes. He has denied the allegations and pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Breaking Down All of the Allegations Against Diddy
Since Diddy’s arrest in New York City, many alleged victims have filed lawsuits against him. As he remains in a Brooklyn prison while he awaits criminal trial in May 2025, Diddy has maintained his innocence and denied all civil allegations against him.
“Mr. Combs and his legal team have full confidence in the facts, their legal defenses, and the integrity of the judicial process,” read a statement to Us in October. “In court, the truth will prevail: that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted anyone — adult or minor, man or woman.”
