Jay-Z’s attorney Alex Spiro accidentally revealed Sean Combs’ ex-girlfriend, Jennifer Lopez, as the mysterious “Celebrity B” in a lawsuit against Combs and Jay-Z.
A 38-year-old Alabama woman accused Combs and Jay-Z of r*ping her at a house party in 2000 when she was 13.
On Thursday morning, Jay-Z’s legal team met with a judge in Manhattan and asked him to quickly remove their client from the lawsuit. They cited a December 13 interview with NBC News on December 13, in which “Jane Doe” admitted inconsistencies in her story.
According to Hip-Hop vibe, Spiro was discussing the names of various celebrities involved in a case, when he slipped up and referred to Lopez as the elusive “Celebrity B” in the lawsuit.
News outlets quickly began covering the story and and the news is trending on X (Twitter).
Social media users speculated that Jay-Z’s long-suffering wife, Beyoncé, is the mystery woman who was in the room when the incident allegedly occurred.
Lopez ended her relationship with Sean Combs after he was arrested on weapons charges in Manhattan in 1999. Combs was acquitted, but his artist, Shyne, was convicted and deported to Belize after he completed his prison term.
On Wednesday, Houston attorney Tony Buzbee filed a lawsuit against Jay-Z’s entertainment company Roc Nation, lawyer Marcy Croft and Spiro’s law firm Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan.
Buzbee accused Roc Nation and its attorneys of approaching his clients with $10,000 bribes to obstruct his cases against Jay-Z and Combs.
“The lawsuit filed today alleges that the Defendants’ conspiracy is intended to obstruct justice and prevent the Buzbee Law Firm from pursuing cases related to the Diddy litigation in New York. The conduct isn’t just alleged-it was caught on tape,” Buzbee wrote on Wednesday.
Buzbee posted a screenshot from a cell phone camera that shows 3 middle-aged men at his client’s door. The men told Buzbee’s client that they worked with one of Jay-Z’s attorneys.
Buzbee captioned the Instagram post: “These investigators aren’t very smart. What they didn’t anticipate was one of the clients decided to record the conversation. It’s shocking, and illegal.”
During a press conference at Roc Nation’s NYC headquarters on Monday, Spiro said the allegations against Jay-Z were “provably demonstrably false.” Spiro was confident that the case against Jay-Z would be dismissed this week.
