Cassie had mentioned the name of the hotel as the scene of one of several alleged assaults by Combs in a sexual abuse, sex trafficking and battery lawsuit she filed against Combs in November 2023.
In the documents, obtained by E! News, the singer alleges that at the InterContinental Century City “in or around March 2016,” the producer “grabbed at her, and then took glass vases in the hallway and threw them at her, causing glass to crash around them as she ran to the elevator to escape.” Cassie added that upon her “information and belief, Mr. Combs paid the InterContinental Century City $50,000 for the hallway security footage from that evening.”
She and Combs settled the case one day later, with his lawyer telling E! News in a statement that “Mr. Combs’ decision to settle the lawsuit does not in any way undermine his flat-out denial of the claims.”
Meanwhile, IHG Hotels & Resorts said that the hotel is no longer under their management, telling NBC News May 17, “IHG did not produce this footage, did not receive money for this footage, and does not have access to it.”
Combs still faces five other civil lawsuits filed in New York since last fall, accusing him of sexual assault, sexual trafficking and other criminal activity, NBC News reported. He has denied all the allegations.
(E! and NBC News are part of the NBCUniversal family.)
