After being known only as Jane Doe in her court filing, the Alabama female has come forward to give an interview to NBS News, calling the alleged sexual assault a “catastrophic event”.
But during the chat, she acknowledged three inconsistencies in her account of what allegedly happened the night she says she was raped during an after party following the MTV Video Music Awards.
Jay-Z has now said in a statement: “(The) investigative report proves this ‘attorney’ (Tony) Buzbee filed a false complaint against me in the pursuit of money and fame.
“This incident didn’t happen and yet he filed it in court and doubled down in the press. True justice is coming.

“We fight FROM victory, not FOR victory. This was over before it began. This 1-800 lawyer doesn’t realise it yet, but, soon.”
Jay-Z’s legal team also hit out in a statement issued to Page Six, saying: “It is stunning that a lawyer would not only file such a serious complaint without proper vetting, but would make things worse by further peddling this false story in the press.
“We are asking the court to dismiss this frivolous case today, and will take up the matter of additional discipline for Mr Buzbee and all the lawyers that filed the complaint.”
Texas-based Buzbee is representing more than 120 men and women who claim Combs, 55, sexually assaulted them. Jay-Z has also accused the lawyer of filing the lawsuit as a “blackmail attempt”.
During her recent interview, the rapper’s accuser acknowledged three inconsistencies in her account of what allegedly happened the night she says she was raped during an after party following the MTV Video Music Awards.
As a result of her chat, Jay-Z’s lawyer Alex Spiro has now requested to expedite the case being dismissed in a legal document.
