Rapper Jay-Z went public a day after a woman accused him of sexually assaulting her with P.Diddy [now in prison], in 2000 when she was 13 years old.
Jay-Z made an appearance on the red carpet with his family at the premiere of the movie "Mufasa: The Lion King," which stars his 12-year-old daughter Blue Ivy and Beyoncé.
The film was released in Los Angeles where the singer was accompanied by his mother-in-law Tina Knowles. This was a 118-minute show featuring members of his family.
Jay Z went public just one day after he was accused of raping a woman in 2000. TMZ had reported that the woman pleaded not guilty to using the alias Jane Doe. She revealed she was sexually assaulted after the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards.
The woman filed her complaint in court in October this year, saying that Diddy and the famous man and another woman sexually assaulted her.
On Sunday, December 8th, he re-filed the complaint, revealing that this other celebrity he had not previously announced was Jay-Z.
When this accusation went out, Jay-Z still argued that it was not true, that he was ready to prove his innocence.
Jay-Z also agreed to demand that the woman's identity be released if what she is saying is true.
After being named in P.Diddy's lawsuit, various celebrities have had their say on Jay-Z's accusations. Like 50 Cent, he wondered if next year's Super Bowl Half-Time Show with Jay-Z would happen.
Soulja Boy said that these accusations continue to be made against the predominantly black celebrities in America, aimed at putting them down because of their level of achievement and wealth. Meek Mill expressed his frustration.
