In May 2024, a surveillance video from March 2016 surfaced online, capturing Combs chasing, kicking, and dragging Cassie down a hotel hallway.

In 2014, she filed a suit against the producer, born Lukasz Gottwald, which alleged sexual, physical, and emotional abuse. Gottwald denied the allegations and that same year countersued the singer, claiming she had defamed him. In 2016, a judge dismissed Kesha\u2019s claims, largely on the grounds that they were too old. Gottwald\u2019s defamation suit was settled in June 2023 after the two parties reached a \u201cresolution.\u201d <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-line-height-copy  lrv-a-font-body-l   \">\n\t\u201cOnly God knows what happened that night,\u201d Kesha wrote in a statement following the settlement. \u201cAs I always said, I cannot recount everything that happened.

I wish nothing but peace to all parties involved.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/kesha-supports-cassie-sean-combs-conviction-1235378045\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kesha is standing with Cassie Ventura in the wake of Sean \u201cDiddy\u201d Combs being found guilty on two of five federal charges he faced&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":38610,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-38609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pop","article","has-excerpt","has-avatar","has-author","has-date","has-comment-count","has-category-meta","has-read-more","thumbnail-"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38609","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38609"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38609\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/38610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=38609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/musicianvoice.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=38609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
