Rapper Jay-Z has denied allegations of raping a woman when she was a minor, calling the lawsuit an attempt at blackmail and extortion. Lawyer Tony Buzbee filed the lawsuit, accusing Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs of drugging and raping a girl at a party in 2000. Jay-Z rejected the claims, stating that the lawsuit was a blackmail attempt and part of a pattern of allegations by the lawyer. He expressed concern for his family, particularly his children, in light of the public scrutiny surrounding the case. “My wife and I will have to sit our children down… and explain the cruelty and greed of people. I mourn yet another loss of innocence,” the statement read. Jay-Z and his wife, Beyoncé, have three children together. Blue Ivy (12) and twins Rumi and Sir (7.)
