Jay-Z has revealed himself as the anonymous plaintiff who filed an extortion lawsuit against attorney Tony Buzbee in November, following rape allegations made against him in a 236-page filing.

The lawsuit stems from allegations made by a Jane Doe, who claims she was assaulted by Jay-Z (Shawn Carter) when she was 13 years old at a 2000 VMAs afterparty. The accuser, now 37, also made allegations against Sean "Diddy" Combs in the same filing.

Carter's attorney, Alex Spiro, has filed a response requesting the court to require Jane Doe to reveal her identity for litigation to proceed. The 236-page extortion lawsuit reveals that Buzbee has also accused Carter of sexually assaulting a male minor, claims which Carter strongly denies.

In the filing, Carter states: "Plaintiff John Doe is the victim of a scheme by Defendant Anthony G. Buzbee and his firm [...], who are shamelessly attempting to extort exorbitant sums from him or else publicly file wildly false horrific allegations against him."

Buzbee, who represents over 200 alleged victims in cases against Sean "Diddy" Combs, denies any wrongdoing. He has taken to social media to accuse Jay-Z of orchestrating a campaign of "harassment" and "bullying" against himself and his family. Carter's legal team has included these social media posts in Monday's filing as evidence of what they describe as attempted blackmail and public embarrassment.
