Kalenna Harper Accuses Cassie Of Using Drugs, Calls Dawn Richard A “Weird Bi**h” In New Interview
Kalenna Harper is best known as one third of Bad Boy group Diddy-Dirty Money, alongside Sean “Diddy” Combs and former Danity Kane member, Dawn Richard. In a new interview, the singer speaks on her relationship both Diddy and Dawn, as well as Cassie, whom she says “liked getting high” during her tenure on the label.
During the chat with Breakbeat Media, uploaded to YouTube Wednesday (Oct. 30), Harper shares that she always admired Diddy, saying he’s someone she’s “always wanted to be like,” while calling Cassie — who sued Diddy for sexual abuse and was seen being assaulted by the mogul on camera — a naive woman who used drugs and had no problem handing out lap dances at parties.
“Love her to death. Naive. Liked getting high. She likes partying,” Harper described of the “Long Way 2 Go” singer. “I saw Cassie grow up from a little girl that was willing to, like, give everybody motherf**king, you know, lap dances, basically. You know, get drunk and just have a good, like, model time.”
When it comes to Dawn, Kalenna didn’t hold back, calling her former group mate a “weird bi**h.”
“I don’t f**k with Dawn like that,” Harper revealed, adding that she never witnessed the questionable behavior from Diddy that Richard described in her own lawsuit against him. “And I’m going to f**king stand on business, I didn’t see any of that. What I saw was, ‘what the f**k is going on with you, because you’re acting weird, you’re a weird bi**h,’ is what I see. And it’s a list of ni**as, where y’all at, talk about it. Dawn’s a weird motherf**ker, man!”
This isn’t the first time Harper has spoken up in defense of Diddy as the locked-up businessman faces several accusations of assault, sexual abuse and more. The singer also denied the claims raised in Richard’s lawsuit back in September, sharing on Instagram, “I, acknowledge the recent lawsuit filed by Dawn Richard in which my name has been mentioned 33 times. While I fully respect Dawn’s right to recount her experiences, l want to emphasize that her account reflects her personal perspective and should not be interpreted as a universal truth applicable to everyone involved.”
Diddy also defending himself following the suit, calling out Richard for seeking a “pay day.”
“Mr. Combs is shocked and disappointed by this lawsuit,” the statement from Puff’s attorney read. “In an attempt to rewrite history, Dawn Richard has now manufactured a series of false claims all in the hopes of trying to get a pay day — conveniently timed to coincide with her album release and press tour.”
