Jay-Z, born Shawn Corey Carter, is pushing back against allegations leveled against him in a new lawsuit that accused him and Sean "Diddy" Combs of raping a 13-year-old girl in 2000, calling the claims "idiotic."
A lawsuit filed on Sunday claimed that 24 years ago, Carter and Combs allegedly assaulted an unidentified minor at an MTV Video Music Awards after-party. The lawsuit also said another unidentified female celebrity witnessed the assault and did nothing to stop it. The lawsuit was initially filed in October with only Combs as a defendant. But on Sunday it was refiled to include Carter, NBC News first reported.
