Cassie once told Diddy’s ex-assistant that “Jay-Z was taken” when asked why she didn’t leave Diddy—revealing deep emotional entanglement.
Diddy’s former assistant, Capricorn Clark, took the stand on May 27 in the third week of the federal racketeering trial.
Clark shared how she once encouraged Cassie to leave Diddy, only to get the now-infamous reply about Jay-Z.
Cassie asked, “Who would I date? Jay-Z is taken,” according to Clark’s courtroom testimony.
Clark recalled this conversation while meeting Diddy’s legal team in 2024 after the FBI raided his homes.
Sean Combs faces sex trafficking and racketeering charges. He’s pleaded not guilty but could face life in prison.
Cassie and Diddy had an 11-year on-and-off relationship. Their past is now key in this ongoing trial.
Combs has been held at the Brooklyn detention center since his arrest. His legal team denies all allegations.
The internet lit up after Jay-Z’s name surfaced in court—fans and bloggers dissected the significance of Cassie’s statement.
As more witnesses take the stand, the trial continues to reveal disturbing allegations about one of hip-hop’s most powerful figures.
