Jay-Z Files Defamation Lawsuit Against Former Rape Accuser
Jay-Z has filed a defamation lawsuit against the Jane Doe who accused him of sexual assault and her lawyer Tony Buzbee
In his complaint, the rapper (real name Shawn Carter) claims that the defendants “were soullessly motivated by greed, in abject disregard of the truth and the most fundamental precepts of human decency,” per court documents. Court documents also reportedly claim that Doe “voluntarily admitted” that Buzbee, her lawyer, “pushed her towards going forward with the false story against Mr. Carter” after an “extortionate demand letter failed to yield the financial windfall.” In a December 2024 on-camera interview with NBC News where her identity was concealed, Doe alleged that Jay-Z had raped her in 2000 at an afterparty for the MTV Video Music Awards.
