Kim Porter

The claims against Diddy are getting even wilder. A man says he has videotapes of the mogul having sex with other celebrities including two child stars.

As spotted on Page Six, a man named Courtney Burgess is stepping forward with some very wild allegations about the founder of Bad Boy Entertainment. The self-proclaimed music executive was interviewed on NewsNation’s Banfield show.

During the Q&A hearing he revealed that he has several flash drives given to him by the late Kim Porter. In them, Burgess says are videos of Diddy and other celebrities, specifically six men and two women. Even more egregious is his claim that two of the proposed a-listers were minors at the time. Burgess would go on to detail that all the high-profile stars in the footage appeared to him to be under the influence and were victims.

On Thursday (Oct. 31), he testified before a grand jury in Manhattan. TMZ caught up with him and his attorney Ariel Mitchell outside and were able to get some additional details and clarification. Burgess explained that not only does he have possession of the tapes but also an unedited version of Kim Porter’s memoir.
Earlier this year, Jamal T. Milwood published a book titled Kim’s Last Words. The purported memoir was written by investigative journalist Chris Todd and contained several serious accusations against Diddy, including claims of physical abuse and sexual debauchery. Porter’s children soon denounced the release, prompting Amazon and Barnes & Noble to pull it. Ariel confirmed they are looking to release their unedited version for sale shortly.

Sources tell TMZ that federal prosecutors have subpoenaed him and have demanded he turn over all his files which include Diddy. You can see the NewsNation interview with Courtney Burgess below.

Last week, the children of Kim Porter and Diddy took to social media to shoot down conspiracy theories suggesting that Diddy had anything to do with their mother’s death and stated her latest memoir wasn’t official.

It seems like Amazon might’ve got the message as the Associated Press is reporting that they’ve decided to pull Kim Porter’s book off their digital shelves. According to the report, Amazon pulled the memoir, Kim’s Lost Words: A journey for justice, from the other side… after her children said the book was riddled with lies about their father, Sean “P. Diddy” Combs. Given the nature of Diddy’s recent arrest, people were curious about what his late ex-wife had to say about her relationship with the man, but ultimately the kids said it was all BS.
The AP reports:

“We were made aware of a dispute regarding this title and have notified the publisher,” an Amazon spokesperson said in a statement. “The book is not currently available for sale in our store.”
The independent publisher is Todd Christopher Guzze, who goes by the name Chris Todd and defines his occupation as an “investigative producer, author and journalist.” Todd told The Associated Press in a phone interview in September that sources “very close to Kim and Sean Combs” provided him with a “flash drive, documents and tapes” from Porter that he eventually pieced together to create the memoir. Todd used the pseudonym Jamal T. Millwood when publishing the title.
Todd did not comment on the removal Tuesday when contacted by the AP.
With the book alleging Diddy was not only physically abusive but also a sexual deviant, the kids felt they had no choice but to speak out on their parents’ behalf and refuted the books claims as social media pounced on Diddy, following his arrest earlier this month. Naturally, news of Diddy’s arrest and the allegations made against him helped Kim’s Lost Words: A journey for justice, from the other side… shoot to the top of Amazon’s Bestseller chart before cooling off not too long after.
What do y’all think of Amazon’s decision to pull Kim Porter’s book from their website? Let us know in the comments section below.

Amazon has pulled from it’s website the bestselling 60-page Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey for Justice From the Other Side…, a memoir allegedly written by the late Kim Porter, a model and longtime partner of Sean “Diddy” Combs, according to Associated Press. The book reveals an alleged abusive relationship between the couple, who share 26-year-old son […]

A few days after the Sept. 16 arrest of Sean “Diddy” Combs on racketeering and sex trafficking charges, a book said to be based on diaries and notes from his late girlfriend, Kim Porter, became a best-seller on Amazon. (It was a best-seller within a certain category, which probably means it sold well but not hardcover-bookstore-best-seller well.) What’s really impressive is that the book did so well despite the fact that Diddy and Porter’s children say she didn’t actually write any of it. 

The 60-page book, Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey for Justice, From the Other Side, was self-published under the name Jamal T. Millwood by Chris Todd, whose real name is apparently Todd Christopher Guzze. Todd has said the book is based on the contents of a flash drive, which he allegedly received from two people close to Porter and Combs, but he “didn’t ask too many questions about how they got it,” according to Rolling Stone. “If somebody put my feet to the fire and they said, ‘Life or death, is that book real?’ I have to say I don’t know,” said Todd, who says he’s a producer and journalist and hopes the book will lead other sources to come forward. (Journalists generally tend to ask too many questions.) “But it’s real enough to me.” 

It would be hard to find a more ridiculous quote to describe the very serious problem that big media platforms have created. I have no idea how the book was written, of course, but Todd knows that’s not the point and presumably so do readers — it’s real enough to me, he says, so it’s real enough for them. (The story behind the book actually sounds more interesting than the book itself.) This sounds harmless enough until you realize that — wait a minute — that’s basically what Republican vice-presidential candidate JD Vance says about the claim that Haitian immigrants are eating pets in Springfield, Ohio. He heard it, then justified it as a way to call attention to a problem. (There is no evidence that anyone is actually eating pets, and the whole idea sounds racist.) Like Todd’s book, it certainly went viral. It was real enough for people — to the point that it has become an actual political issue. 

Stories about scandals, real and exaggerated, are hardly new. (Diddy faces unrelated criminal charges; Porter died in 2018 of lobar pneumonia.) What is new, though, is the way online platforms create incentives to create and spread them. Amazon now sells more than a dozen books about Porter, including a “Kim Porter Coloring Book” and several books that use “lost words” in their titles. The speed and ease of selling books on Amazon’s open system has made Porter’s death a cottage industry. It’s gross — does anyone want to be memorialized by a coloring book? — and you can’t blame her kids for being upset. There’s money in it, though. 

It’s a useful metaphor for streaming fraud. The problem isn’t that Amazon or online music services stand behind conspiratorial books or useless music with streaming numbers pumped up by bots — it’s that they don’t stand behind anything. Open platforms like these let people distribute their own art, which is promoted as a feature but might more often be a bug — a lot of what’s online is neither professional work nor hobbyist creations but rather get-rich-quick schemes of various kinds. Which is funny until it could affect an election. 

The most common argument against this in the music business is that fraud takes money from artists, which is true, but it can be hard to get horrified about schemes to steam millions of fractions of pennies from thousands of artists. (Most of the book business works very differently, but dubious books do take money and attention that more legitimate books need.) Another argument is that low-quality material undermines the integrity of the system — consumers who hear lousy music and read dubious books might be less inclined to spend more money on such legitimate products.

The argument that ought to get more attention is that these kinds of products simply aren’t good for the overall experience platforms offer. Streaming services used to promote their vast selection, but at this point some of what’s uploaded just makes more popular music harder to find. The same applies on Amazon. A search for “Kim” and “Lost Words” brings up a half-dozen books — and even those who find and buy the one they want may be disappointed. Kim’s Lost Words has 98 reviews, which average out at three stars. Others have none at all. This doesn’t affect the value of other books, of course, but it could make them harder to find. 

Any serious solution to this will involve changing the incentives. The current level of curation and enforcement won’t work once AI is more widespread. It’s one thing to sell a book that may or may not contain Porter’s words, but Amazon already sells 12. Are we ready for 12,000? 

Making platforms easier to use will mean making tough choices, then pushing them down to distributors who will in turn push them down to individual uploaders. There are options, however: Platforms could hold uploaders responsible for content that hurts the user experience or pay out more to companies who have a better ratio of content users engage with compared to their total. That’s what I think — unless this all came from a flash drive someone gave me.

Al B. Sure! is weighing in on the Diddy scandal and much more. He claims his ex-girlfriend Kim Porter was murdered because she was going to expose the mogul criminal behavior.

As reported by XXL the R&B singer is speaking up and has every intention to be heard. On Monday, September 23 he took to social media to make some very interesting claims and hinted that Kim Porter’s passing should be reinvestigated. “For over a decade and a half, I’ve been posting about, and tagging random law enforcement agencies in hopes to protect loved ones, avoid deaths & tragedies that could have all been avoided,” his caption read. “Despite this, I have been ignored, ridiculed and medically silenced to cover up these crimes you’re all now aware of by a very aggressive #PR Team and costly campaign to silence and physically harm me from exposing.”

“It is evident that her potential to expose the realities of her personal abuses, being drugged, the #SexTrafficking and #HumanTrafficking she was privy to, akin to the brave actions of Mrs. Cassie Ventura, posed a threat to those profiting from such heinous activities,” he continued. “In a nutshell, Kimberly was allegedly taken from us because she was set on course to accomplish what Mrs. Cassie Ventura did by ignited the Bon Fire which brings us here today with the avalanche that has brought Satin to their chambers.”

In a separate post he also said that the recent book about her Kim’s Last Words is unauthorized and is “fabricated bullsh*t”. Al B. Sure! dated Kim Porter in the 1980’s and had son together named Quincy. She went on to date Diddy off and on starting in the 1990’s all the way up to 2007. She had three children with Sean Combs: Christian, D’Lila and Jessie. She passed away suddenly in 2018; her autopsy showed she died of pneumonia. Her children say the rumors of her passing are false.

Ever since Diddy was officially indicted by the Southern District of New York for his alleged crimes of sex trafficking and more, conspiracy theories about the disgraced mogul’s past lovers, artists and associates have flooded the internet. One in particular involving the late Kim Porter is hitting a little too close to home as far as Diddy’s children are concerned.

According to TMZ, the children that Diddy shares with Porter are taking exception to the long rumored notion that Diddy had something to do with her untimely death. Though talk of Diddy somehow playing a role in Porter’s passing in 2018 has been a topic of conspiratorial discussion for years—she was allegedly preparing to release a tell-all book before she died—the rumor once again gained steam after authorities indicted the Bad Boy founder on September 16.

Looking to quell anymore talk of Diddy having a hand in her death, sons Quincy and Christian, and twin daughters Jessie and D’Lila, took to social media on Tuesday night (Sept. 24) to address the subject and called the conspiracy theory both “hurtful” and “false” as they asked everyone to fall back on such allegations.
Per TMZ:
In a joint statement, they say it’s been hard to reconcile how their mom Kim was taken from them too soon, but they quickly dismiss any unfounded or unproven theories Diddy was involved in her death … writing, “The cause of her death has long been established. There was no foul play.”
Remember, Kim died suddenly in 2018, and an autopsy revealed her cause of death to be pneumonia. However, in the wake of Diddy’s arrest and federal indictment, some people — fans and even Quincy’s estranged biological father, Al B. Sure! — have called for Kim’s death investigation to be reopened.
Al straight up said this week he thinks Kim was murdered … a theory he tied to a new book — called “Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey for Justice From the Other Side” — allegedly containing Kim’s journal entries from the time she was with Diddy.
Still, Diddy and Kim’s children say that the book in question is a bunch of malarkey and that anyone suggesting that Kim wrote the words in that book are capping big time while saying “We are deeply saddened that the world has made a spectacle of what has been the most tragic event of our lives.”
Will people on social media actually respect the wishes of the kids? Probably not as we all know that the internet is a lawless environment where anything goes these days.
What do y’all think about Diddy and Kim Porter’s kids asking everyone to fall back on this particular conspiracy theory? Let us know in the comments section below.

We are very sure that when Bishop T.D. Jakes picked up his smartphone and opened up X, formerly Twitter; he didn’t think he would be trending for this outrageous reason.
The Senior Pastor of The Potter House has been trending all day long on X. No; it wasn’t because of some magnificent sermon he might have dropped, a new book, or some other business endeavor. It was because of the ongoing saga with Bad Boy general Sean Diddy Combs and some eye-opening accusations involving Jakes.
According to a TikTok video from user MYEi$HiA that found its way onto Elon Musk’s awful social media platform without a shred of proof, she claims R&B singer Cassie Ventura handed over evidence to the FBI further incriminating Diddy and a full month after she dropped the bombshell lawsuit accusing the music mogul of disgusting sexual violence against her during their decade-old relationship.
Cassie and Diddy have since settled their legal issues. Still, Ventura’s use of Governor Kathy Hochul’s Adult Survivors Act opened the floodgates for other women to come forward with claims against the rapper and other prominent celebs.
MYEi$HiA went on to claim that Cassie handed the FBI a burner phone belonging to Diddy’s other ex, Kim Porter, whom he had four children with, and tapes from Diddy’s alleged parties.
How Exactly T.D. Jakes Allegedly Became Involved With The Mess
T.D. Jakes’ involvement in the alleged shenanigans came after the TikToker claimed the existence of an email mentioning the pastor who also happened to preside over Kim Porter’s burial following her tragic passing in November 2018.
She also shared a clip of an unknown man who, again, without a shred of proof, claims Cassie turned over tapes of Diddy’s parties featuring numerous prominent individuals, including Jake, who allegedly slept with multiple men while attending the parties.

Again, there is no proof of this, so take all of this with the tiniest grain of salt possible. Still, social media will be social media, and the reactions are something else.

3. Gotta love the jokes

4. What is wrong with y’all?

Sean “Diddy” Combs is remembering Kim Porter on her birthday.
On Friday (Dec. 15), the rapper and Bad Boy Records founder took to social media to pay tribute to his late ex-girlfriend on what would’ve been her 53rd birthday.

“We miss you so much Kim! Happy Birthday Beautiful! Love forever,” Combs, 54, wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of him kissing Porter.

Diddy — who is currently facing multiple sexual assault claims — also shared numerous snapshots with Porter on his Instagram Story, including an image of the pair walking together on the beach.

Diddy and Porter first began dating in 1994 and eventually broke things off in 2007 after roughly 13 years. They shared three children: son Christian, 25, and twin daughters, D’Lila Star and Jessie James, 16.

Porter died in November 2018 in her Los Angeles home at the age of 47. The cause of her death was ruled as lobar pneumonia, according to the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner.

The music mogul’s post arrives after his denial of four sexual assault and abuse allegations made against him in recent weeks.

“ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,” Diddy wrote in a statement on Dec. 6. “For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy. Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday. Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth.”

Diddy has been sued for sexual assault by four women, including his longtime romantic partner, R&B singer Cassie, who accused him of rape and physical abuse, among other allegations. Though that case settled the day after it was filed, Combs was subsequently sued by three more women, all Jane Does, who say the hip-hop mogul sexually assaulted them.

In the most recent case filed, the woman says she was “sex trafficked” and “gang raped” by Combs, former Bad Boy Records president Harve Pierre and another man in 2003 when she was 17. A separate case over that alleged incident was filed against Pierre and Bad Boy alleging sexual assault.

A former nanny who performed services for Diddy is accusing the business mogul of wrongfully terminating their business arrangement, prompting a lawsuit in the process. According to new reports, Diddy is hoping to get the lawsuit dismissed in court.
As reported exclusively by Radar Online, Raven Wales-Walden, the nanny in question, filed the lawsuit last year after Diddy hired her to help care for his children with the late Kim Porter. The outlet adds that Wales-Walden claims she’s a relative of Porter, although that has yet to be confirmed.

Wales-Walden says in her lawsuit that the superstar born Sean Combs hired her in 2018 after Porter passed away to assist him with the twins they shared as parents. Wales-Walden says she moved into the home of Diddy to administer the care but became pregnant in 2020 and she requested maternity leave. According to Wales-Walden, the connection with the Combs family became strained and she was reportedly fired.
Adding to this, Wales-Walden says a third party allegedly told her that she was fired because of her being pregnant without being married and setting a bad example for his girls.
The amount of damages Raven Wales-Walden seeks has not been made available to the public.
