Meanwhile, Druski aka Drew Desbordes had denied the allegation made against him, through a post on X. In the tweet dated March 9, he claimed that the allegation was a "fabricated lie" and "outlandish."

According to him, the comedian was broke in 2018 and had no ties with the entertainment industry. He added:

"My heart breaks for actual victims of abuse, but I’m fully confident that the evidence will expose this falsehood and the individuals who are maliciously trying to game the legal system to peddle false narratives."

According to a March 9 Newsbreak article, Jaguar was accused of helping Sean "Diddy" Combs with s*x trafficking. Parham claimed that at the 2018 party, she was outnumbered and then assaulted as well as drugged.

The outlet then claimed that the comedian had a connection with Diddy. In the meantime, Odell Backham Jr., named in the suit, was allegedly seen several times at Diddy's parties.

While further updates on Druski's case are awaited, Diddy is currently awaiting trial and has recently been slapped with "forced labor" in a new indictment.
