Sean “Diddy” Combs, the once-celebrated music mogul behind Bad Boy Records, has been accused of creating a "degrading" and "predatory" work environment for the members of his hit girl group Danity Kane, according to former member D. Woods. Speaking on Good Morning America, Woods described a toxic atmosphere where the band members were judged primarily on their sex appeal rather than their talent.
“He viewed his artists as ‘pieces of meat,’” said Woods, who joined the group after appearing on Combs’ reality TV series Making the Band 3. “In some of the environments, it was even scary to be by yourself.”
Woods’ allegations come amid mounting legal troubles for Combs, who was arrested in September on suspicion of sex trafficking and racketeering. Prosecutors allege he orchestrated events he called "freak-offs," where women were forced to participate in multi-day sex parties. More than 150 individuals, including men and boys, have accused Combs of sexual assault, resulting in over 30 civil lawsuits.
Woods recounted her experiences during an upcoming Investigation Discovery docuseries titled The Fall of Diddy. In the series, she recalls witnessing “inappropriate communications” between Combs and fellow Danity Kane member Aubrey O’Day, who was ultimately fired alongside Woods during Making the Band 4. Woods noted that there was no one to report such behavior to, forcing the group members to rely solely on one another for support.
Asked by Good Morning America’s Eva Pilgrim if any avenues for reporting existed, Woods replied, “Absolutely not. What were they going to do? It’s like, ‘How do we survive this?’”
Despite the damning allegations, Combs and his legal team maintain his innocence, calling the accusations “pure fiction.” In a statement to GMA, his lawyers criticized the documentary’s producers, claiming they failed to give Combs an adequate opportunity to respond to the allegations. “[Combs] has full confidence in the facts and the judicial process, where truth will prevail,” the statement read.
Woods explained her decision to come forward now, stating that she finally feels her story will be heard and taken seriously. She acknowledged fears of retaliation if Combs is acquitted but emphasized that staying silent hasn’t changed anything. “Every time I think I should stay quiet, I remind myself that not talking hasn’t helped,” she said.
Combs is currently being held in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center. A judge determined he was a flight risk and could potentially intimidate witnesses. His trial is set to begin on May 5, 2025.
