Diddy sues NBCUniversal for $100 million over documentary defamation

Sean 'Diddy' Combs has filed a $100 million defamation lawsuit against NBCUniversal, Peacock, and Ample Entertainment over a documentary titled 'Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy'. The lawsuit claims the film falsely accuses him of heinous crimes, including serial murder, rape of minors, and involvement in the death of his former partner, Kim Porter, despite her death being ruled as natural. Combs, currently awaiting trial for federal charges unrelated to these allegations, argues that the documentary advances baseless conspiracy theories and compares him to Jeffrey Epstein. His legal team criticizes the use of unreliable sources, such as Al B. Sure! and Courtney Burgess, to substantiate these claims without credible evidence. NBCUniversal and the production company are accused of defaming Combs to sensationalize his story at the expense of his reputation, leading to significant harm. Combs seeks to hold the defendants accountable for these 'outrageous lies' and to protect his right to a fair trial.
