00:00An amended lawsuit filed in federal court on Sunday alleges that rap mogul Jay-Z raped

00:08a 13-year-old girl, along with Sean Diddy Coombs, during a party 24 years ago.

00:14Jay-Z denied the allegations on social media and blasted the lawsuit, calling it part of

00:19a blackmail attempt by the plaintiff's lawyer.

00:22The lawsuit was originally filed in October in the Southern District of New York, and

00:27at that time did not name Jay-Z as a defendant, though the amended lawsuit says that Jay-Z

00:32was identified as Celebrity A on the original complaint.

00:37Coombs has denied all allegations against him, including this one, in October.

00:42He is currently in jail on federal sex trafficking charges, to which he has pleaded not guilty.

00:48The lawsuit alleges that the unnamed girl was drugged and raped by both Jay-Z and Coombs

00:53at a party hosted by Coombs following the MTV Music Awards in 2000, which was held

00:58in New York.

00:59Tony Busby, the Texas lawyer representing the girl who filed Sunday's lawsuit, has

01:05filed at least 20 civil lawsuits against Coombs, accusing him of sexual misconduct.

01:10In an email to Reuters, Busby said the Jay-Z lawsuit speaks for itself.
