Kaya Jones, who was in the Pussycat Dolls for a year, has said that she ‘spoke up’ about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs seven years ago – but ‘no one listened’
Kaya Jones said she has been vocal about Sean “Diddy” Combs for years, claiming “no one listened”.
The former Pussycat Dolls star, now 40, grabbed headlines in 2017 when she alleged on X formerly Twitter that she was pressured into “sleeping with” people during her time with the group. Her explosive rant at the time included: “How bad was it? Bad enough that I walked away from my dreams, bandmates and a $13 million record deal.”
Kaya, born as Chrystal Neria, continued with, “In 2004 I told Hollywood executives, 2005 – 2006 I told press. In 2011 I spoke up again.” And added, “Hope you can hear me now Media in 2017! Way to go.” Recently, the Canadian singer took to X once more amidst the Diddy scandal that’s shaking the entertainment industry, given the shocking details of the indictment, his connections to numerous A-listers and his notorious “Freak Off” parties.
Kaya shared a 2017 Post article, where she claimed Pussycat Dolls was essentially a “prostitution ring,” as a response to Elon Musk’s recent X post questioning how many were aware of the disgraced music mogul’s alleged sex trafficking and racketeering, reports the Daily Star.

Elon had asked, “How many people in music and entertainment knew about this? ” To which Kaya responded on October 3, “Here you go @elonmusk I’ve been speaking since 2017. No one listened.”
Diddy does not have an involvement with the girl group nor had he previously. The 54-year-old is currently incarcerated in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center facing trial for charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution, as more abuse allegations emerge.
The model’s accusations of the PCD as a “prostitution ring” saw Robin Antin, the creator and choreographer of the group vehemently deny the allegations, calling them “disgusting, ridiculous lies”. Nicole Scherzinger, 46, the lead singer of The Pussycat Dolls, along with her bandmates, issued a statement condemning the accusations.

They stated: “To liken our professional roles in The Pussycat Dolls to a prostitution ring not only undermines everything we worked hard to achieve for all those years but also takes the spotlight off the millions of victims who are speaking up and being heard loud and clear around the world.”
Meanwhile, Diddy pleaded not guilty to the charges he was been indicted on and continues to deny any misconduct amidst a growing number of sexual assault lawsuits against him. Tony Buzbee, a Texas-based attorney, is representing over 120 additional alleged victims in a civil suit.
