Netflix Acquires 50 Cent’s Diddy Documentary Amidst Growing Controversy
The much-anticipated documentary about Sean “Diddy” Combs, hyped by his long-time rival 50 Cent, has found a home. TMZ has learned that Netflix secured the rights to the multi-part series after a fierce bidding war with several major networks and streaming platforms. The documentary, provocatively titled “Diddy Do It?”, promises to delve into the serious sexual assault allegations that have surfaced against the rap mogul.
The acquisition comes at a time when Diddy’s legal troubles are escalating. Just this week, model Crystal McKinney filed a civil lawsuit against him, alleging that he sexually assaulted her in 2003. This accusation follows the release of 2016 security footage showing Diddy physically assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Cassie, in a hotel hallway. Cassie herself accused Diddy of abuse and sexual assault last year, a case that was settled out of court shortly after it was filed.
The documentary’s release on Netflix, expected sooner rather than later, will likely intensify public scrutiny of Diddy’s actions and the culture of silence around powerful figures in the music industry. As viewers await the premiere, the series is poised to be a major topic of discussion, shedding light on allegations that have long been overshadowed by Diddy’s celebrity status.
