Sean “Diddy” Combs’ former stylist Deonte Nash testified that the disgraced music mogul would consistently hurl degrading insults at Casandra “Cassie” Ventura.
Nash told prosecutors during the ongoing sex-trafficking trial Wednesday that Combs would refer to his now-ex-girlfriend — whom he dated on and off from 2007 to 2018 — as “baby girl, CC, bitch, slut, ho,” per People.
Nash went on to tell the court that Combs called Ventura a bitch “quite a bit.”
“That was his fave,” he claimed.
The stylist, who worked for Combs from 2008 to 2018, further claimed, “He would say, ‘She was nothing but a slut anyway.’”
When asked how Ventura responded to the abusive nicknames, Nash testified that the singer would feel “sad” and “go into a depression.”
Nash claimed he heard Combs threaten to “beat [Ventura’s] ass” or “send her sex tapes out.”
“It drove her crazy. She would be super emotional. She might stay in the house for days,” he added.
Nash is one of several witnesses who have testified about the disgraced music mogul’s alleged physical and emotional abuse of Ventura.
Last week, singer Dawn Richard — who is also suing the Bad Boy Records founder for sexual abuse— testified that Combs “owned” Ventura and would often become violent toward her when she “would speak up for herself.”
“He would drag her and kick her and punch her in the mouth,” she told the jury.
Cassie’s mother, Regina Ventura, testified that she and her husband were blackmailed by Combs for $20,000 over the “Me & U” singer’s brief relationship with Kid Cudi. (Cassie previously testified in court that Combs was jealous of their romance).
A pregnant Cassie took the stand earlier this month to testify about her decade-long relationship with Combs and her participation in his infamous “Freak-Off” parties — which at times lasted up to four days and caused her “painful” medical issues.
The “Long Way to Go” hitmaker also answered questions about the 2016 surveillance footage of his physical attack at a hotel and her allegation that Combs raped her in 2018 which was mentioned in her 2023 bombshell lawsuit.
Cassie, 38, concluded her testimony on May 16 and welcomed her third baby with husband Alex Fine on Tuesday.
Despite Combs quickly settling the civil suit filed by Cassie, the rapper, 55, has vehemently denied all of her accusations.
He is currently facing federal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution and has pleaded not guilty.
