Jay-Z and Beyonce received death threats over now-dropped teen rape allegation linked to Sean 'Diddy' Combs case

Jay-Z and Beyonce have faced their share of ups and downs over the years and according to the latest reports, also faced some chilling death threats over the past months.

According to reports, the star couple was targetted with death threats and other messages following allegations that Jay-Z, along with Sean 'Diddy' Combs, raped a woman when she was 13 years old. Although the lawsuit was recently dropped, the high-profile couple continues to face intense backlash, RadarOnline.com has revealed.

The anonymous accuser, known as Jane Doe, filed the lawsuit accusing Jay-Z and Combs of the assault, which she alleged occurred after the 2000 MTV Music Awards. Jay-Z vehemently denied the allegations, calling them "malicious and fictitious."

Despite the case being dismissed, Jay-Z claimed in a recent legal declaration that the accusations have damaged his reputation and led to "threats of violence" against him and his family. According to the rapper, online users made disturbing threats to "kill" or "execute" him and his loved ones. Some have demanded he be "locked up like Combs... in prison. Then later in hell."

The rapper also revealed that he has been labelled a "satanist," "trafficker," "terrorist," and "monster" on social media, with some trolls even using racial slurs against him.

Jane Doe's attorney, Tony Buzbee, quietly dropped the lawsuit on February 14. However, legal tensions between the two are far from over. The rapper had previously filed a lawsuit against Buzbee for civil extortion, defamation, and intentional infliction of emotional distress, alleging that the lawyer strategically timed the filing of Doe’s lawsuit to coincide with the premiere of his daughter Blue Ivy’s film, Mufasa: The Lion King.

In his defamation suit, Jay-Z claimed the legal battle cost him $20 million in business deals and endorsements.

Meanwhile, Diddy, is currently facing over 40 lawsuits, many filed by Buzbee on behalf of alleged victims, with some claims involving minors. He remains behind bars on sex trafficking charges.
