Tanika Ray, Diddy’s ex backup dancer took to her Instagram to focused on why she never talked about some of the alleged ‘horrific’ stuffs she experienced while working for Diddy.
“If I told my story in 1996 then What??” she captioned an Instagram post on Wednesday
Tanika Ray, a backup dancer for Sean “Diddy” Combs, opened that she deliberately avoided him during her time working for him.
In a nearly Instagram post, the 52-year-old former Extra host discussed her past interactions with the 54-year-old hip-hop star.
She also shared a clip responding to journalist Touré’s asserted that Diddy fired a male relative for refusing to “stay the night.”
As per to media she said:
“You know, we all have stories,” Ray said in the video. “Seriously, we all have stories. Mine is horrific, and only 5 people know it. And I probably will never tell it but it’s since then I’ve been like, ‘Yup.’ And I’m also very intimately aware that if you tell your truth you become victimized over and over and over and over and over. And mind you, I then interviewed him many times.”
She included that she’s “got a lot of stories” because she’s “been in Hollywood for 25 years, maybe longer.”
“Perhaps I’ll write a book one day, but it just is so traumatizing that women just want to live everyday and feel safe,” Ray added. “And when we revisit and revisit, we live in a state of victimhood, and nobody wants to live there. So for those who are like, ‘why didn’t you say something then?’ Because we just want to live, we want to be happy and we truly want to forget the trauma. So there’s that.”
