Diplo Hit With ‘Revenge Porn’ Lawsuit Claiming He Shared Sex Videos Over Snapchat
06/28/2024
The 45-year-old DJ and producer, whose real name is Thomas Wesley Pentz, took to social media on Friday (June 28) to address a civil lawsuit accusing him of sharing sexually-explicit videos and images of a former romantic partner without her permission.
“Don’t believe what you read in the news,” Diplo wrote on Instagram alongside a carousel of images and videos of himself. “I don’t own a 100 million dollar mansion, I didn’t pay 450k euros to rave in Ibiza and I didn’t send dirty snapchats in 2017.”
He added, “Let’s talk about how lucky I am to party with you guys and how good the raves are here in Europe .. (Athens Croatia Prague done .. París up next).”
In a complaint filed Thursday (June 27) in Los Angeles federal court, an unnamed Jane Doe accuser claimed the DJ/producer recorded their sexual encounters and shared the materials with others on Snapchat “without plaintiff’s knowledge or consent.”
In her complaint, the woman claims she had consensual sexual relationship with Diplo from 2016 to 2023. During that time, she says she occasionally “gave defendant Diplo permission to record them having sex, but never gave him permission to distribute those images and videos to third parties and reiterated that he was not to record them without her explicit consent.”
In a statement on Friday, Diplo’s attorney Bryan Freedman strongly denied the new allegations by referencing previous lawsuits claiming abuse by the artist.
“In every case where there has been an allegation of improper conduct made against Wes, the result has been either an immediate dismissal of a bogus lawsuit coupled with an apology, a court-ordered award for Wes in excess of $1.2 million, or the slow demise of an obvious shakedown attempt that has gone absolutely nowhere,” Freedman said.
“Time and again, Wes has been targeted by a group of untrustworthy individuals and their unscrupulous lawyers, cobbling together falsehoods in search of a meritless payday. This suit seems to be just more of the same, which is why we have no reason to believe that this will end any differently than all the others.”
