Diddy Sued By Sex Worker For $500K

Diddy is facing another lawsuit by another sex worker.

According to AllHipHop, Michael Ejiawoko accused the Bad Boy Records founder of arranging sexual encounters at several luxury hotels in Los Angeles and Las Vegas “under false pretenses.” The lawsuit also names The Palazzo, Wynn Las Vegas and The London West Hollywood as defendants.

Field it in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the suit allegesthat Diddy recruited him in 2018 under the false belief that he was solicited for consensual sex work with adult women. But when he arrived, Ejiawoko claims that the women were coerced, and “that Diddy orchestrated and observed the acts without participating.”

The suit also accuses hotel staff of working with Diddy to hide his identity and “facilitate the encounters by booking rooms under aliases, including the name “Mr. Star.”

“Hotel staff knowingly facilitated Mr. Combs’ illicit activities by reserving hotel rooms under aliases, including the name ‘Mr. Star,’ to shield Combs’ identity, granting access to private or secured areas to Combs and his JOHN DOE associates, escorting Ejiawoko and other participants in the encounters to and from rooms, cleaning and removing paraphernalia used in the encounters, including oils, substances, and drug-related items; Failing to report or investigate clear signs of illegal conduct,” said Ejiawoko’s attorney, Jonathan D. Evans,” the suit read.

Ejiawoko said that Diddy instructed him to use oil during the sexual encounter, which he believes was laced with drugs. He also says that the sessions were recorded without his permission and he could not give consent because he was drugged.

The allegations levied at Diddy and the hotels included sexual battery, civil conspiracy and violations of the federal Trafficking Victims Protection Act. 

Ejiawoko is seeking more than $500,000 in damages “for emotional distress and mental anguish, along with punitive damages and attorney fees.” He also has requested a jury trial.

On July 2, Diddy was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution after a federal criminal trial in New York City that lasted for several weeks

He was acquitted of the more serious charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. 

Diddy will be sentenced on October 3, 2025.
