Tiffany Red, a Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter, penned an open letter to Sean “Diddy” Combs where she corroborated allegations made by Cassie in her explosive civil lawsuit.
Known for her fiery red tresses and her immaculate pen, Tiffany has worked with the likes of Zendaya, Tamar Braxton, Jason Derulo, and Joe Jonas.
In the letter, published by Rolling Stone, Tiffany, who worked closely with Cassie on her second album, which never came out, detailed instances of intimidation and abuse.
Tiffany Red expressed concerns about her safety in speaking out publicly against Diddy.
I’m breaking my silence, freeing myself from haunting recollections, standing in solidarity with Cassie, and standing up for myself.
I fear for my safety as her suit alludes to me, although not by name.
I hope that revealing my identity to the public will afford me some measure of protection.
In her letter, Tiffany recalled witnessing how possessive and controlling Diddy was over Cassie.
She recalled witnessing the music mogul following Cassie on a night out with her girls, berating her, and forcing her to leave.
Tiffany even wrote about a night when a seemingly intoxicated Diddy brought Cassie home high as a kite and demanded her friends convince her to have sex with him.
She appeared sedated and very withdrawn. It was the first time I saw her this way. You started screaming at us, ‘Tell your girl she wants some birthday d—. I flew all the way from Miami. She gone get this birthday d—!’
You were visibly angry that she didn’t want that from you. I was terrified; I said, ‘She doesn’t have to have sex with you if she doesn’t want to.’
You just kept screaming, ‘She gone get this d—.’
All I kept thinking about was how, before you came to get her and she was sober, she kept telling us she didn’t want to go with you.”
Tiffany Red shared that Cassie confided in her about the “Freak Offs” – which were detailed in her civil lawsuit against Diddy.
You two left her place in chaos on a golf cart and drove off into the night. We watched you from her balcony, driving toward your house.
I thought you were going to get pulled over and go to jail or crash from being so high. It was like a real-life scary movie. I was terrified for Cassie and completely traumatized.
She later told me you made her have a ‘Freak Off.’
Tiffany even noted how Diddy allegedly placed a non-disparagement clause in Cassie’s record deal termination agreement to prohibit her from speaking out about what she experienced with him.
Why is Tiffany Red speaking out now?
She wrote, “With Cassie bravely sharing her story, I’m finally free to share mine. That night of her birthday, and so many others, are burned in my brain and have tormented me since.”
“I feel compelled to show up for Cassie and myself and confirm that everything she described in her complaint about what happened that night is consistent with what I experienced,” Tiffany added.
