Things just got even more intense in the ongoing legal drama surrounding music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs.
On Monday, May 12, a man named Daniel Phillip took the stand and dropped some heavy allegations. He testified that he was paid to have sex with singer Cassie—while Diddy allegedly watched from the corner and, according to Phillip, was “always masturbating.”
Phillip said he was paid between $700 and as much as $6,000 to be intimate with Cassie, but sometimes got nothing if he couldn’t perform. “I didn’t ask to get paid,” he said. “They gave that to me.”
Describing the first time he met Cassie, Phillip said she opened the door wearing lingerie, high heels, sunglasses, and a wig—and told him, “Your boss told me to hand you $200 upon arrival.” He said Diddy was already in the room, sitting silently in a bathrobe and bandanna.
From there, things got more graphic. Phillip claimed that he gave Cassie a massage in just his underwear while Diddy started masturbating in the corner. He said these encounters happened multiple times in hotel suites, and sometimes included role-play, baby oil, and filming. Phillip even claimed Diddy recorded some of it on his phone and took a photo of Phillip’s driver’s license—allegedly telling him it was “just for insurance,” which Phillip interpreted as a threat.
