Attorney Tony Buzzbee has responded to Jay-Z’s statement alleging that a recent r*pe claim against him is nothing but blackmail.
The bombshell lawsuit claims that Jay-Z of r*ped a 13-year-old girl in 2000 with Sean “Diddy” Combs. “Jane Doe,” said says the r*pe happened after she was driven to an MTV Video Music Awards after-party.
Jay-Z says that prior to the lawsuit, his attorney received “a blackmail attempt, called a demand letter, from a “lawyer” named Tony Buzbee. What he had calculated was the nature of these allegations and the public scrutiny would make me want to settle.”
Jay-Z says he will expose Buzzbee as a fraud and urged him to bring a criminal complaint against him instead of a civil one.
Buzzbee hopped on X to respond.
“My only heartbreak is for my family. My wife and I will have to sit our children down, one of whom is at the age where her friends will surely see the press and ask questions about the nature of these claims, and explain the cruelty and greed of people,” he wrote.
