John Legend Reacts To Diddy's Abuse Allegations With An Urgent 2-Word Message
HuffPost
In a recent interview, the singer and "Voice" coach described how it felt to read Cassie Ventura's lawsuit against the Bad Boy Records founder.
John Legend recently weighed in on the mounting abuse allegations against rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs, saying he’s “horrified” by the claims.
During a conversation with CNN International’s Christiane Amanpour that premiered on the network on Thursday, the “All of Me” singer described feeling outraged after he read a November lawsuit by Combs’ ex-girlfriend, musician Cassie Ventura, which contained allegations of repeated physical and sexual abuse by Combs.
Disturbing surveillance video showing Combs violently assaulting Ventura in 2016 was released by CNN earlier this month.
“I was horrified by the allegations that I heard about Mr. Combs, and of course horrified by the video evidence that was released after that,” Legend said, referring to the suit and surveillance footage. “But I was horrified by the descriptions that I read before the video evidence came out.”
When asked about the importance of people spreading awareness on domestic violence issues, the “Voice” coach said that he “absolutely” thinks instances of abuse should be “brought to light.”
