This comes after Cassie slammed Sean "Diddy" Combs' "trusted assistants" in court, who helped him organize the "freak offs."
Cassie Name-Drops A-List Stars During Diddy Trial

Diddy's criminal sex trial took a dramatic turn on Wednesday as the prosecution's main witness, Cassie, mentioned two A-list celebrities while giving her testimony.
The 38-year-old has already testified how Diddy subjected her to years of physical and emotional abuse, accusing him of coercing her to have sexual encounters with male escorts.
Cassie described a particular incident in 2013 while she was preparing to go to rapper Drake's music festival in Canada, explaining that Diddy tussled with her friends and threw her into a bed frame.
The singer said she suffered a "pretty significant gash" above her left eye, after which Diddy's security took her to a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills to get it stitched up.
According to the Daily Mail, Cassie shared that she sent Diddy a photo of her wounded face and wrote: "So you can remember," to which he replied, "You don't know when to stop. You pushed it too far. And continued to push. Sad."
The singer then described a photo of her with rapper French Montana at the festival in Canada.
Cassie also talked about her Diddy became enraged when he learned she had been dating rapper Kid Cudi.

She revealed that Diddy saw a text exchange between her and Cudi on her phone after a "freak off" session in Los Angeles in 2011.
"It was a time when we were not in the greatest place," Cassie said of her relationship with the rapper at the time.
According to Cassie, Diddy, with his eyes "blacked out," lunged at her, "super angry," prompting her to flee the area. Diddy then allegedly threatened to release videos of her and said he was "going to hurt Scott [Cudi]" and her.
In Cassie's 2023 lawsuit with Diddy, which was settled out of court, she also spoke about the rapper's alleged rage over her romance with Cudi, claiming that the business mogul blew up Cudi's car after he found out.
Cassie Contracted Infections Due To 'Freak Offs'

Elsewhere in her testimony, Cassie narrated how the "freak offs," which she describes as a sexual encounter between her and a male escort on Diddy's request, left her with a negative experience.
The "Long Way 2 Go" singer said she developed urinary tract infections frequently from the sexual experiences and was often left with several mouth sores.
"I had a lot of stomach issues, gastrointestinal issues from taking drugs.. I'd get frequent UTIS, if you've had one, you know how painful that is," she narrated. "When we were having frequent Freak Offs, sometimes they were back to back, I couldn't get rid of it, and I was doing the Freak Off with an infection."
Regarding her mouth injury, Cassie said her mouth became irritated "from oral sex, also from having my mouth on things, oil, Astroglide, lubricants."
"Occasionally I'd get sores on my tongue from Freak Offs from the substances and just friction in my mouth," she told the jury.
Cassie Called Out Individuals Who Helped Diddy Organize 'Freak Offs'

During Tuesday's testimony, Cassie revealed the identities of certain of Diddy's "trusted assistants" who helped him organize the "freak offs" and punished her when she didn't comply.
While taking the stand, she named longtime assistants Kristina Khoram and Neil Dominic, referring to Khoram as someone deeply embedded in Diddy's personal affairs.
The singer also accused Diddy's security guard, known as R. Rock, of taking "away her things as punishment" at the rapper's request.
"[I'd] get my car taken away, get kicked out of an apartment, I'd have jewelry taken away... It was very random depending on how [Diddy] felt," she said.
Other members of Diddy's security personnel who were mentioned in Cassie's testimony include Roger Bonds, Uncle Paulie, Faheem, and Malik.
Shock Envelopes Courtroom As 'Freak Off' Pics Are Shown

Meanwhile, shock and exasperation filled the atmosphere in court on Wednesday as the jury was shown photos from the "freak offs."
According to the Daily Mail, prosecutors say they'll not show videos of Cassie in the drug-fueled sexual encounters during direct examination, but will show her still image from a video of a "freak off."
The image, which reportedly showed one of the escorts she and Diddy usually used, was only shown to the jurors because it is evidence that is still under seal.
The images sparked several telling reactions among jury members. A black juror's eyebrows went up as if in shock, while a black female juror swallowed hard and appeared to move her head from side to side.
A white male juror put his hand to his mouth, and another white man appeared to do a double-take of the images.
Cassie Shared The Nickname Diddy Forced Her To Call Him During 'Freak Offs'

In her Tuesday testimony against Diddy, Cassie revealed that she was forced to use a bizarre nickname for the rapper during his notorious "Freak Off" parties.
"He wanted me to have a nickname for him," the 38-year-old said on the stand, per Page Six. "He asked me what I called my grandfather, and I said I called him Pop Pop."
When Diddy made the request, Cassie said she found it "weird," but looking back now, she feels it was "disrespectful."
