Aubrey O'Day Responds to Accusations of Diddy Assault, Shares Alleged Explicit Emails in Netflix Documentary

Aubrey O'Day has opened up about her experiences with Sean "Diddy" Combs in the Netflix documentary Sean Combs: The Reckoning. The former Danity Kane singer, who was selected by Combs to join the group during MTV's Making the Band in 2005, shared details about her interactions with him and the alleged inappropriate behavior she faced.

In the third episode of the series, O'Day described feeling singled out by Combs, who reportedly emphasized her appearance over the other members. "He was separating me and there was a different set of expectations from me, and I just naturally float into the grooming," she explained.

O'Day revealed that she received explicit emails from Combs, including messages containing sexual content. On camera, she read one of the alleged emails: "Here's one email: I don't wanna just f--k you. I wanna turn you out... God bless, Diddy. God is the greatest." She expressed that receiving such messages from her boss made her feel pressured and ultimately contributed to her dismissal from the group.

The singer also noted that Combs later focused on launching a new project, Diddy Dirty Money, involving fellow Danity Kane member Dawn Richard, who has also filed claims against Combs for alleged misconduct.

In the final episode, O'Day read from an affidavit where a woman described witnessing her being sexually assaulted by Combs and another man in 2005. O'Day expressed confusion and distress over the allegations, questioning, "Does this mean I was raped? I don't even know if I was raped, and I don't want to know." She described the emotional weight and legal concerns of responding to the claims.

Prior to the documentary's release, Diddy's spokesperson criticized Netflix, calling the film a "shameful hit piece" and alleging unauthorized use of footage. The statement argued that the platform misrepresented private material and included individuals with personal grievances against Combs.

Combs' legal team has stated they will not comment on specific allegations from the documentary, citing longstanding disputes and credibility issues among those involved. Previously, a jury found Combs guilty on two counts of transportation for prostitution and sentenced him to 50 months in prison, while acquitting him on other charges.
