Gloria Estefan Slams Diddy Accuser Who Mentioned Her In His “Freak-Off” Lawsuit, Says Man Is “Not Well”

Gloria Estefan is speaking out after her name was shockingly named in one of Diddy’s many salacious lawsuits.

Estefan was dragged into the scandal last month when accuser Joseph Manzaro alleged a “freak-off” took place at her Star Island home in Miami. On Thursday, May 8th, TMZ caught up with the Grammy-winning singer outside iHeartRadio in New York City, where she firmly denied any involvement.

“Nothing happened at my house, ever, ever,” Estefan stated. “So I just hope [Diddy] gets in front of this.”

She also questioned the credibility of the accuser.

“He’s not well in the head,” Estefan said of Manzaro. “If you look at his history, he’s just throwing everybody in.”

Despite the accusations, Estefan had kind words for the media mogul and his family.

“Diddy was a neighbor. He was always very kind to us, and his mom, spectacular. But we never were in his house or him in ours,” she said.

In the lawsuit filed in April, Manzaro claimed he was drugged and forced to wear a vulgar mask at a party hosted at the Estefans’ home, allegedly attended by Beyoncé, Jay-Z, and LeBron James. He also bizarrely claimed he was transported through a secret underground tunnel connecting the Estefan and Combs residences. Beyoncé and Jay-Z have since been removed from the lawsuit.

Diddy’s federal trial began this week in Manhattan. He has pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking, racketeering, and prostitution-related charges. If convicted, he faces up to life in prison.
