Cassie's Husband, Alex Fine, Calls Sean 'Diddy' Combs A 'Demon'

Yahoo19-05-2025
Alex Fine issued a statement in support of his wife, Casandra Ventura, known professionally as Cassie, amid her alarming testimony against Sean 'Diddy' Combs. On the stand, Cassie shared disturbing details about the alleged physical and sexual abuse she suffered during her relationship with Combs, including graphic information about 'freak-offs' and beatings.
'I have felt so many things sitting there,' relayed Fine in a statement, per The Independent. 'I have felt tremendous pride and overwhelming love for Cass. I have felt profound anger that she has been subjected to sitting in front of a person who tried to break her. You did not break her spirit nor her smile.'
'I did not save Cassie, as some have said. To say that is an insult to the years of painful work my wife has done to save herself. Cassie saved Cassie,' explained the personal trainer.
He continued, 'She alone broke free from abuse, coercion, violence, and threats. She did the work of fighting the demons that only a demon himself could have done to her. All I have done is love her as she has loved me.'
The 'Official Girl' singer also shared a statement after her four days of testimony.
'I hope that my testimony has given strength and a voice to other survivors, and can help others who have suffered to speak up and also heal from abuse and fear,' she declared.
Combs's trial for sex trafficking and racketeering continues this week with former Danity Kane member Dawn Richard taking the stand. Last week, Richard described witnessing Combs' abuse of Cassie and detailed a violent 2009 attack.
'He came downstairs, asking where his phone was and he threw her to the ground. He attempted to kick her. She fell to the ground and went into the fetal position, literally trying to hide her head,' Richard claimed, detailing how the Hip-Hop mogul allegedly hit Cassie with a skillet. 'I was scared for her, I was scared to do anything,'
In September 2024, Richard filed a civil suit against Combs for sexual and physical abuse, as well as inhumane treatment.
After her testimony, the 55-year-old requested that the suit be thrown out with his legal team claiming it to be an attempt 'to transform narratives of alleged injuries against others into a headline-grabbing sex trafficking conspiracy as to her.'
If convicted in his criminal trial, Combs could be in prison for life.

Drake And Sexyy Red Throw Back Shots At 9 A.M. During 'Wealth And Hellness' Retreat

Sexyy Red and Drake have bonded heavily over the last few years, so much so that she can get him to make crazy decisions — like throwing back shots of alcohol at 9 a.m. Clips surfaced online of the duo attending Drizzy's Wealth and Hellness retreat. He shared photos and videos on Instagram showing the St. Louis star and her friends dancing by a bar, internet comedian BenDaDonn, former NFL player Johnny Manziel, and others having a large group dinner under a tent, Chubbs having a drink on a boat, and Zack Bia DJing a function. Red and Drizzy's early morning turn up confirmed his lyrics from 'Signs' in 2017, where he sang, 'You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning.' The group showed off their shot glasses and called for a cheers in the first clip, but the 6 God wasn't holding one. In the second clip, he finally retrieved one and said 'I'm about to be f**ked up, man, it's like 9 o'clock.' Nonetheless, he obliged and their festivities continued. Watch below. It takes a special friend to get somebody to start their day with shots, and the Toronto superstar emphasized how close he is to the 'Get It Sexyy' artist this weekend at Wireless Festival in London. She was a surprise guest during his headlining set on day two (Saturday, July 12) and performed 'Get It Sexyy,' 'SkeeYee,' 'Pound Town,' and their collaboration 'Rich Baby Daddy.' At one point, the 'What Did I Miss?' artist called Red one of his best friends and thanked her for constantly checking on him. Despite everyone who seemingly betrayed him last year, Red has consistently and proudly maintained her loyalty. She received the first Drake feature following his beef with Kendrick Lamar, their viral love song 'U My Everything,' in May 2024. He also joined her in the 'Get It Sexyy' music video a few months prior. Watch below.

JAY-Z Shuts Down Paternity Claims, Calls Rymir Satterthwaite's Allegations 'Fabricated'

In newly filed court documents obtained by Us Weekly, JAY-Z is asking a federal judge to step in and shut down a lawsuit filed by 31-year-old Rymir Satterthwaite, who continues to allege that the Hip-Hop mogul is his biological father. Satterthwaite, who filed the latest complaint in May, accuses Jay of knowingly avoiding a paternity test and using his celebrity status to silence him. The lawsuit also alleges fraud, manipulation of the legal system, and a pattern of intimidation — claims JAY-Z's legal team flatly denies. In response, the Roc Nation founder — born Shawn Carter — called the lawsuit the latest chapter in what he describes as a 'decades-long harassment campaign' carried out by Satterthwaite. His lawyers noted that similar allegations have already been 'addressed and rejected' by multiple courts and that continued efforts to push the narrative have resulted in contempt orders. JAY-Z also told the court he only learned of the latest filing on June 3 and requested additional time to formally respond. His legal team claims an attempt to contact Satterthwaite's guardian to coordinate was met with hostility, stating that the phone call ended with her hanging up. Satterthwaite's lawsuit outlines claims that his late mother, Wanda Satterthwaite, had a relationship with JAY-Z in the 1990s. He says the rapper has gone to great lengths to avoid acknowledging his alleged paternity, including allegedly refusing DNA testing and pressuring the courts. Satterthwaite claims the years-long legal battle has caused him emotional distress, public embarrassment, and even health complications. The Philly native also alleges a violent threat against him in the form of a car shooting — an incident he believes was a message intended to silence him. Despite the serious nature of his allegations, he says he's not seeking back child support but rather damages for the toll the situation has taken on his life. The 55-year-old icon has remained largely silent on the matter over the years, though his legal team maintains there is no truth to Satterthwaite's claims. The judge has not yet ruled on the latest filing. More from Who Is Rymir Satterthwaite?

Beyoncé, as usual, is turning heads while on the road for her Cowboy Carter World Tour. With stunning outfits taking over our timelines every time she hits a new city, it's almost overwhelming how much work she and stylists Shiona Turini, Karen Langley, and Ty Hunter have put into the trek. With themes of Americana running throughout, fans have been treated to countless looks highlighting Bey's all-American roots, as well as her usual staples of form-fitting bodysuits and plenty of sequins.

The coats add drama to the performer's already high-energy show, providing even more umph to 'fits that stand strong on their own.
