Jay-Z and his wife Beyoncé faced de@th threats after a ‘malicious and fictitious’ lawsuit falsely accused the rapper of r@pe, his countersuit has revealed.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The rapper, real name Shawn Carter, was accused of attacking a 13-year-old girl at a 2000 MTV Video Music Awards party alongside Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs in a lawsuit that was filed in December last year.
The unnamed accuser has voluntarily dismissed the case and Carter, 55, has now sued his accuser’s attorney Tony Buzbee, who filed the allegations.
In response, Carter filed a lawsuit against the accuser’s attorney, Tony Buzbee, alleging that Buzbee’s public statements had caused significant harm, including violent threats against him and his wife.
Court documents reveal that the couple received disturbing messages, with individuals making comments such as, “I can’t wait until you join (Combs) in prison… then later in hell.” Other comments labeled Carter as a “satanist,” “terrorist,” and “monster,” and included explicit death threats.
Carter further claimed that Buzbee intentionally filed the lawsuit on the eve of Beyoncé’s Mufasa premiere to force him into a difficult position—choosing between attending the event with his daughter or avoiding the media frenzy.
The 55-year-old rapper described the allegations as “frivolous, fictitious, and appalling,” expressing relief after the case was dismissed.
“Today is a victory,” he said, calling the legal battle a “laughable” but serious situation.
In his statement, Carter criticized the legal system for allowing such false accusations without consequences.
“The trauma that my wife, my children, loved ones, and I have endured can never be dismissed,” he said.
He also called on the courts to balance protecting victims with safeguarding the innocent from unwarranted accusations.
‘This 1-800 lawyer gets to file a suit hiding behind Jane Doe, and when they quickly realize that the money grab is going to fail, they get to walk away with no repercussions. The system has failed.’
Meanwhile, Combs, who also faces multiple legal battles, continues to deny all accusations against him.
