- A man who has accused Sean “Diddy” Combs of sexual assault and humiliating him at a party in Miami in 2015 has removed Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s names from his lawsuit
- The couple’s lawyers were able to prove that they were not in attendance at the party
- The accuser, Joseph Manzaro, alleges that he was drugged and taken to a home on Star Island, and then later paraded around at another party where he was forced to wear a penis mask
A man who has accused Sean “Diddy” Combs of sexual assault and humiliating him at a 2015 party while Beyoncé and Jay-Z were present has now removed the couple’s names from his lawsuit.
The accuser, Joseph Manzaro, filed an amendment to his lawsuit in Florida on Friday, April 11. He removed Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s names from his complaint, which was obtained by PEOPLE.
Manzaro alleges in the original complaint that he was drugged and taken to a home on Miami’s Star Island, owned by Gloria and Emilio Estefan, for Combs’ son Christian‘s birthday in April 2015. Once there, Manzaro claims Gloria saw him in a “deteriorating state” and told someone to call an ambulance, before Emilio allegedly ushered her away, according to the complaint.
Manzaro also alleges that he was drugged, taken from the home and paraded around another party while being made to wear a penis mask. The complaint described the event as a “freak-off.”
Page Six reported that Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s lawyers supplied information that proved the couple were not in attendance at the time. A 2015 article from New York University’s newspaper reported that Jay-Z was making an appearance at the college at the time, and soon after, he and Beyoncé went on vacation in Hawaii, per photos published by The Daily Mail.
Manzaro claims in the complaint that he was drugged and transported via an underground tunnel to Combs’ mansion by former porn star Adria English, who is also named as a defendant.
A previous version of the complaint alleges that Manzaro was taken to a room with Jay-Z and Beyoncé, the latter of whom expressed confusion and asked why a “half-naked” man with a sex toy strapped to his face was standing in front of her. This claim was removed from the complaint.

One of the other defendants named in the complaint allegedly responded that it was a “punishment,” and that “Diddy wants him to see what we do to snitches.”
Jay-Z’s attorney Alex Spiro gave a statement to PEOPLE, in which he said that the musician was not in Florida at the time of the alleged assault.
“[Jay-Z] wasn’t in Florida at that time to witness this incident — he was engaged in easily findable public activities that prove he was not at this event,” Spiro said in the statement. “This is more nonsense that erodes the trust in our ‘justice’ system.”
Manzaro’s complaint alleges that Combs later specifically ordered that Manzaro be degraded in front of others at the party before the plaintiff was stripped and then dressed in a thong and “a black leather mask with a rubber dam forcibly inserted and zipped closed over his head.”
“A locking sex device was affixed to the mask, which protruded from his mouth,” the complaint alleges. “Plaintiff was then subjected to degrading and non-consensual acts.”
The complaint further claims that Gloria again requested an ambulance, but was once more silenced by Emilio.

In a statement to PEOPLE on Saturday, April 12, Combs’ legal team denied the allegations leveled by Manzaro.
“This complaint demonstrates the depraved lengths plaintiffs will travel to garner headlines in pursuit of a payday,” the statement said. “No sane person reading this complaint could credit this story. Mr. Combs looks forward to having his day in court, where these lies — and the perverse motives of those who told them — will be revealed.”
Emilio was named a defendant in the complaint. Gloria, Beyoncé and Jay-Z — as well as LeBron James, whom Manzaro alleges saw him at the event — were not named as defendants.
PEOPLE reached out to attorneys for Beyoncé, Jay-Z and Manzaro for comment on Saturday, April 12, but did not receive an immediate response.
Combs has been sued by dozens of people accusing him of sexual misconduct and has denied the allegations. He has also pleaded not guilty to federal sex crime charges and is set to go on trial in May 2025.

Queen Camilla told friend Meghan Markle ‘brainwashed’ Harry amid royal family feud, new book claims

Queen Camilla privately told a friend that Meghan Markle had “brainwashed” Prince Harry amid the royal family’s feud, according to a bombshell new book.
Author Tom Bower claims the remark came as relations between the Sussexes and the rest of the royal clan hit boiling point shortly after their lavish nuptials at St George’s Chapel in 2018.
The glamorous wedding in Windsor was followed by a Mediterranean honeymoon, but behind palace walls, the honeymoon period was already over.
According to Bower, whose new book is serialized in The Times, things turned ugly soon after the newlyweds returned to Britain.
A tense showdown between Harry and his older brother Prince William reportedly spiraled out of control, with Markle snapping at her brother-in-law during the confrontation.
“If you don’t mind, get your finger out of my face,” the “Suits” actress allegedly shot back at William during the explosive exchange, according to Bower.
Queen Camilla then allegedly vented to a friend with a blunt verdict: Markle had “brainwashed” Harry.
William reportedly already warned his younger brother that the whirlwind romance was moving too fast, Bower reported, citing sources.
“It’s gone too quickly,” he reportedly told Harry about his relationship with Markle.
Meanwhile, Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, allegedly shared the same concerns, believing Harry might be vulnerable to Markle’s influence.
Bower also claimed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex felt lingering resentment about their place in the royal pecking order — forever destined to be “spares” rather than heirs.
According to the author, Harry eventually became “possessed by seeking revenge.”
The simmering tensions ultimately led to the Sussexes’ dramatic royal exit.
In 2020, Harry and Markle stepped down as senior working royals and left the UK, launching what critics called an all-out media offensive against the monarchy.
From their explosive 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey to Harry’s tell-all memoir “Spare” in 2023, the couple repeatedly aired grievances about palace life.
The duke also stunned viewers with a headline-grabbing interview with the BBC that included more thinly veiled swipes at the royal family.
But there may finally be light at the end of the palace tunnel.
Harry could extend an olive branch by inviting his father, King Charles, to open the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham, according to The Sun.
The father and son have had only two brief meetings in recent years, but the invite could see them standing side-by-side on stage as Harry fulfills a longtime dream of having the King launch the event.
Meanwhile, Markle is dealing with fresh headaches of her own.
Last week, Page Six exclusively revealed that Netflix ended its partnership with her lifestyle brand As Ever.
An industry insider told Page Six the collaboration no longer made sense after her planned series “With Love, Markle” failed to move forward.
Still, Markle’s team insists the brand is moving full steam ahead, saying it’s now “ready to stand on its own” with “an exciting year ahead.”
Next up for Markle? A luxury women’s retreat in Australia — where fans can pay up to $2,288 for VIP access.
The pricey getaway will coincide with Harry and Markle’s upcoming Australian tour, which is expected to include private meetings, business appearances and philanthropic events.
And if history’s any guide, the royal drama is far from over.

We tried the buttery soft style
These pajamas feel luxe – but the price won’t give you nightmares.
After years of reporting on stars’ favorite loungewear styles — including their often pricey pajamas — I’ve always been intrigued by Nordstrom’s Moonlight Eco Pajamas.
They look strikingly similar to several over-$100 (and in some cases over-$200) sets celebrities wear, but the $65 price tag is a comparative steal.

So, with “Sleep Month” here — and Daylight Savings Time wreaking havoc on my sleep schedule — I got my hands on a pair.
While the full-length version looks like something an A-lister would wear while getting red carpet-ready, I opted for the short-sleeve version since I (and my apartment) run hot, even in the winter.
From the first moment I slipped them on, I knew I’d never want to go back to my old cotton sleepwear. The tencel modal fabric feels like butter, making for a dreamy sleep in more ways than one.

Having tried plenty of uncomfortable PJ shorts in the past, I also love that the bottoms fit in a loose, boxer-like way. (The top also has a baggy, forget-you’re-wearing-it fit.)
I own several more expensive pajamas, and I can attest that these feel just as soft and high-quality.
While I picked the light blue striped version, they’re available in eight colors — from neutrals like black and navy to limited-edition shades like bright red and pink florals.
Given how comfy they are, the biggest problem might be wanting to shop them all.

Cindy Crawford roasted over morning routine

Cindy Crawford’s morning rituals not for the faint-hearted.
The 60-year-old supermodel has stunned her followers by revealing her 2.5-hour routine, which includes a 6am wakeup before putting on her bible app and doing a dry brush within the first five minutes of getting out of bed.
Crawford – who gained popularity in the 1980s and 1990s for her modelling and acting career, as well as her workout videos – also uses a gua sha on her face with cleanser, which is supposed to help boost facial circulation.
At 6:45 a.m., she sits on a Bemer mat, intended to help with muscle recovery, with a Capillus red light hat on. She also uses a red light device for her face.
She will have a shot of apple cider vinegar at 7 a.m. and then walk through the grass “for grounding” to get to her jacuzzi.
She’ll then get dressed for a workout and then making a coffee with collagen in it. Crawford will then check emails before heading to the gym for a workout that includes jumping on the trampoline, stretching, hanging and pilates.
Several social media users were quick to comment on the video, with some saying they loved the routine and others suggesting it indicated wealth.
“But I would never understand why they have to wake up at 6 a.m. when they have nothing to do,” one said.
Another added: “This is exactly what I want Cindy Crawford’s morning routine to be.”
“I can’t imagine having a jacuzzi at the start of the day and before a workout. They chill me out and wipe me out,” someone else commented.
Another weighed in: “If I had nothing but money and time, I’d like to believe this is how I would also do my morning routine.”
“Been inspiring me since the 90. Thank you for sharing,” one said. ️
“You killed this content edition queen,” read another.
“Cindy, I’m too poor for this,” one joked.
Another chimed in: “There’s nothing like having money.”
