AceShowbiz - The identity of one of Sean "P. Diddy" Combs earliest sexual accusers has been revealed. The woman, who initially filed a lawsuit against the rapper in December 2023 under a pseudonym, is revealed to be Anna Kane, who was married to NHL star Evander Kane.
Anna was ordered to reveal her identity if she wanted to continue her lawsuit. On Friday, December 6, she amended her complaint to include her name, which was first reported by TMZ.
In a statement to news outlets, Anna accused Diddy's team of trying to intimidate her, but she remains undeterred. "I had hoped to use a pseudonym in pursuing justice for what happened to me as a teenager," Anna says in the statement via her attorney Douglas Wigdor. "Defendants' demand that I use my name was an attempt to intimidate me, but I am not intimidated. I am prepared to proceed and hold accountable those who have harmed me."
In her lawsuit, Anna claimed she met Bad Boy Entertainment President Harve Pierre back in 2003 in the Detroit area. Harve, who allegedly called her "hot," dropped Diddy's name and invited her to hop on a private jet to meet the music mogul.
Anna claims she was only 17 years old and still in the 11th grade when this happened. She says she ended up in the Big Apple and met Diddy in a recording studio. She says she was drugged and raped by Diddy, Harve and another unnamed man.
Her lawsuit includes photos of the alleged studio meeting. One of the photos shows a woman, whose face is blurred, sitting on the lap of Diddy, then 34. She says she's the girl with the blurred face.
Anna claims the alleged assaults left her suffering "significant emotional distress and feels of shame that have plagued her life and personal relationships for 20 years."
Diddy has denied the allegations. When the suit was first filed, he said in a statement posted on social media, "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy."
The 55-year-old called the allegations "sickening" and insisted they had been made "by individuals looking for a quick payday." He vowed, "Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth."
