Diddy accused of paying $6000 to an escort for intimate encounters with Cassie Ventura: Report

Daniel Phillip, an escort, testifies that he had been paid to have a sexual encounter with Casandra ‘Cassie’ Ventura, Diddy’s ex-girlfriend, by the disgraced rapper.In the trial on May 12, 2025, Daniel admitted in the court of law that he was hired to indulge in intimacy when Diddy was present in the hotel room at the Gramercy Park Hotel in Manhattan. Adding to the details, Phillip was asked to ‘oil up’ and rub the infamous baby oil on each other, while Combs would be sitting in the corner to self-pleasure, according to the New York Post.Phillip continued to reveal that he would be paid up to $6,000 for the sessions and sometimes nothing if he didn’t perform what Diddy liked, which then led to a couple of years lasting 10 hours each. He further stated that he never actively went to the police to report the concerns about Ventura’s safety. Even though he believed that she was in ‘real danger,’ because he feared the Hip-Hop mogul as he took the photo of his driver’s license. “This was someone with unlimited power. And chances are that even if I did go to the police that I still might be losing my life,” Daniel revealed. Revealing that his code word to go the Diddy’s room would be ‘black,’ Phillip expressed, “I was excited that I was just in this world and be involved with people with such notoriety.”As the testimony evolved, Phillip narrated an incident about the domestic abuse that occurred at Ventura’s home. When Cassie was on the computer, searching for personal information, she was ordered by Diddy to come into the bedroom - and she didn’t run fast enough.The disgraced rapper came out of the room, grabbed her hair and dragged her, where a bottle went by her and hit the wall. “She was yelling, she was screaming. Mr. Combs pulled her into the bedroom, and I could hear him, could hear what sounded like him slapping her,” Phillip said in the courtroom, according to the New York Post.
