Kalenna Harper Labels Cassie “Naive” In Passionate Defense Of Diddy
Kalenna Harper came to the defense of Diddy during a recent interview with Break Beat Media. Discussing Cassie‘s lawsuit against the Bad Boy mogul, Harper labeled her “naive” and downplayed the legitimacy of her allegations. She had accused Diddy of alleged physical and sexual violence throughout their relationship, which he denied. They ended up settling the lawsuit just one day after Cassie filed.
“Love her to death. Naive. Like getting high. She likes partying,” Harper said about the singer, as caught by Bossip. “I saw Cassie grow up from a little girl. That was willing to, like, give everybody motherf***ing, you know, lap dances, basically. You know, get drunk and just have a good, like, model time.” Months after the lawsuit, CNN published resurfaced security camera footage of Diddy hitting Cassie at a hotel in 2016.

Harper also discussed the lawsuit filed by her former collaborator, Dawn Richard. It was one of numerous lawsuits alleged victims came forward with in the wake of Cassie’s allegations. “I don’t f**k with Dawn like that. And I’m going to f***ing stand no business,” she said. “I didn’t see that. What I saw was what the f**k is going on with you because you act all weird. You’re a weird b***h.” Harper and Richard were both members of Dirty Money with Diddy. She previously denied having witnessed any of the abuse mentioned by Richard in a statement shortly after she filed the lawsuit.
