Diddy demanded $20K from Cassie, threatened to release ‘freak-off’ videos over her relationship with rapper Kid Cudi: testimony

Sean “Diddy” Combs once demanded Cassie Ventura pay him $20,000 and threatened to release “freak-off” videos of her because the fallen music mogul was enraged at her relationship with Kid Cudi, according to testimony.

The revelation came out as Ventura’s mom, Regina Ventura, began testifying about how she and her husband took out a home equity loan to pay the Bad Boy Records founder’s demand when he found out his on-and-off girlfriend Cassie Ventura was dating rapper Kid Cudi — whose real name is Scott Mescudi.

“I was scared for my daughter’s safety,” Regina Ventura told the jury.

Cassie went to her parents’ home in Connecticut in December 2011, when her mom photographed the bruises on her daughter’s back and thigh that she allegedly got from Combs beating her up.

Cassie also sent her mom and Combs’ assistant, Capricorn Clark, an email on Dec. 23, 2011, that he was threatening to release “2 explicit sex tapes of me” and “he will be having someone hurt me and Scott Mescudi physically.”

Regina Ventura said she “was physically sick” after reading the emails. “The sex tapes threw me. I did not know the other person but I knew he was going to try to hurt my daughter.”

So the mom transferred the money to a Bad Boy Records account, but the sum ended up getting returned in four or five days, Regina Ventura testified.

It was not clear under what circumstances the money was returned.
