Azealia Banks claims Elon Musk was aware of Sean "Diddy" Combs' alleged sexual activities with minors.
On Tuesday, October 1, the Daily Mail published an article that accused the embattled artist of drugging and sexually abusing a nine-year-old boy. The child was one of three people who were allegedly molested by Combs when they were minors. The other two accusers were 14 and 15 years old at the time of the alleged encounter. Elon Musk, the owner of X formerly known as Twitter, took to his timeline, shared a screenshot of the article, and asked, "How many people in music & entertainment knew about this?”
“B***H YOU KNEW ABOUT IT DIDDY IS ONE OF YOUR INVESTORS AND U WAS CHILLIN WITH GHISLANE HO," Banks replied in all caps.
The allegations stem from a group of 120 alleged victims who plan to file civil lawsuits against Combs for a slew of offenses including violent sexual assault or rape, sexual abuse, facilitating sex with controlled substance, false imprisonment, compelling prostitution, sexual misconduct, dissemination of video recordings and sexual abuse of minors. Within the group, there are 60 men and 60 women who claim they were abused by Combs. 25 of them claim they were minors when the alleged abuse happened.
Musk failed to mention his connection to Combs in his post. Following a federal court order, the billionaire SpaceX founder was forced to reveal his hefty list of investors who chipped in to help fund the purchase of Twitter in 2022. Combs' fund, Sean Combs Capitol, was one of nearly 100 groups that appeared on a list of investors who contributed to the $44 billion price tag.
The "212" rapper didn't stop there. She continued to fan the flames of her accusations by posting a photoshopped image of Diddy and Musk's faces. “This is probably a good time to buy tesla stock,” she commented. Banks wasn't the only one to highlight Musk's connection to Combs. Some fans also posted photos of Musk and Combs together. They also resurfaced photos of him with Ghislaine Maxwell, who's currently in prison for her role in the Jeffrey Epstein case.
So far, neither Musk nor Combs' respective camps have responded to Banks' allegations.
