Diddy has been caught on camera fat-shaming Danity Kane singer D. Woods in a disturbing resurfaced video from the noughties. 

Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, a rapper accused of rape, was recorded asking inappropriate questions like, ‘What’s your stomach looking like? Are you feeling a little thick?’

Real name Wanita Denise Woodgett, D Woods was one-fifth of chart-topping girl band Danity Kane, who Combs created on Making The Band in 2005. 

D. Woods, aged 39, has opened up about the unsettling and intimidating environment allegedly created by Diddy for young women who depended on his influence in the music industry. An old video resurfaced showing the lewd comments made by Diddy towards her back in the early 2000s.

‘He used various tactics with all of us, like picking on us and making uncomfortable advances, in an attempt to break us down,’ Woods revealed in an interview with ABC’s Good Morning America on Sunday.

‘I see myself standing in those dark, scary, predatory spaces, and hearing somebody say some of the most degrading things to me,’ she added. ‘From the outside he was this mogul – he was this guy who could make your dreams come true.’ 

When pushed for more information about how Diddy, 55, was ‘predatory’, Woods accused him of ‘constantly treating’ aspiring female musicians ‘like a piece of meat’. ‘In some of the environments it was even scary to be by yourself,’ she added. 

Diddy has strongly denied all allegations from myriad lawsuits accusing him of sexual misconduct, including accusations of gang-rape with other A-list celebrities and abusing minors at his infamous White Parties between 1998 and 2009. 

Woods said she was choosing to speak out about the rapper this year because ‘I feel like this moment now is a time when I feel like my experience, my truth, will really be heard and actually considered and believed.’ 

The California-born singer does not accuse Diddy of assaulting her, but of creating a verbally abusive environment for young aspiring musicians. 

She opened up about her experience with Combs even more in The Fall of Diddy documentary, which debuts on IMDb Monday. 

Diddy’s representatives have accused documentaries like The Fall of Diddy of ‘rushing to cash in on the media circus’ surrounding him.  

‘The producers failed to provide sufficient time or details for his representatives to address unsubstantiated claims, many from unidentified participants whose allegations lack context,’ his attorneys said in a statement. 

‘By withholding this information, they made it impossible for Mr. Combs to present facts to counter these fabricated accusations. 

‘This production is clearly intended to present a one-sided and prejudicial narrative. 

‘As we’ve said before, Mr. Combs cannot respond to every publicity stunt or facially ridiculous claim. 

‘He has full confidence in the facts and the judicial process, where the truth will prevail: the accusations against him are pure fiction.’

Woods’ former band member, Dawn Richard, is among those who have sued Diddy for allegedly ‘terrorizing and sexually abusing’ her. 

In the lawsuit, obtained by DailyMail.com, Richard, 41, claims that she was ‘manipulated’ by Combs on promises that he would help her music career.

She also alleged that during the audition process for Making The Band, Sean had called female contestants various names, such as ‘fat’, ‘ugly,’ ‘bitches’ and also ‘hoes.’

Erica Wolff, an attorney for Sean Diddy Combs, hit back against Richard’s allegations. 

‘Mr. Combs is shocked and disappointed by this lawsuit,’ Wolff told DailyMail.com.

Erica Wolff, an attorney for Sean Diddy Combs, hit back against Richard’s allegations.

‘In an attempt to rewrite history, Dawn Richard has now manufactured a series of false claims all in the hopes of trying to get a pay day — conveniently timed to coincide with her album release and press tour.’ 

‘If Ms. Richard had such a negative experience with Making the Band and Danity Kane, she would not have chosen to continue working directly with Mr. Combs for Dirty Money, nor would she have returned for the Making the Band reboot in 2020 or agreed to be featured on The Love Album last year. 

‘It’s unfortunate that Ms. Richard has cast their 20-year friendship aside to try and get money from him, but Mr. Combs is confidently standing on truth and looks forward to proving that in court.’ 

Danity Kane was an American girl group with five original members – Aubrey O’Day, Dawn Richard, Shannon Bex, and Aundrea Fimbres along with Woods. 

They were discovered on the third series of MTV’s Making the Band reality TV show, and were signed to Diddy’s Bad Boy Records. 

Their first album in 2006, Danity Kane, had two songs which made the top 10 chart-toppers – Show Stopper and Ride for You – while their second album in 2008, Welcome to the Dollhouse, spawned the hit Damaged. 

They were the first girl group in Billboard history to debut their first two albums at the top of the charts – but they were torn apart by early tensions with Diddy, who removed Woods and O’Day from the group in 2008. The others disbanded in 2009.
