‘Making the Band’ Alum Accuses Diddy of Misconduct
The film, which debuted recently, revisits the hip-hop mogul’s rise to fame and his subsequent fall amid allegations of misconduct.
Allegations from Sara Rivers
Sara Rivers, a former member of the reality competition series “Making the Band 2”, shared troubling claims about her interactions with Combs. Rivers alleged that during her time on the show, Combs intimidated band members and engaged in inappropriate behavior.
In one instance, Rivers recalled, Combs expressed anger by telling a bandmate, “You make me so mad, I want to eat your flesh.” She also claimed that he threatened another member by saying he could pay someone to beat them.
Rivers further alleged an incident of sexual misconduct, stating that Combs “touched me in a place that he shouldn’t have.” She described feeling intimidated and nervous, saying, “I haven’t said anything for so long, and it’s built up.”
Past and Ongoing Lawsuits
Rivers is not the only individual from Making the Band to come forward with allegations. Dawn Richard, a member of Danity Kane, filed a lawsuit against Combs in September 2024, accusing him of sexual assault, trafficking, and battery.
Additionally, Ashley Parham, another accuser, detailed a harrowing incident in which she alleged Combs participated in a violent assault in 2018. Parham’s claims, outlined in her lawsuit and in the documentary, have further intensified scrutiny on Combs.
Legal Battles and Defense
Combs is currently detained at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, awaiting trial on charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and other serious offenses. His legal team has denied the allegations, calling the media coverage a “hysterical circus.”
Despite the denials, the revelations in “Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy” have reignited discussions about power dynamics in the music industry and the treatment of artists on reality TV.
