Jay-Z, the prominent rapper and entrepreneur whose real name is Shawn Carter, has been accused in a civil lawsuit refiled on Sunday of raping a 13-year-old girl in 2000, allegedly along with Sean 'Diddy' Combs. The lawsuit claims that the incident occurred at an MTV Video Music Awards afterparty over two decades ago. The accuser, identified as 'Jane Doe,' alleges she was drugged and assaulted after being taken to the party without a ticket. She was approaching limousines hoping to spot a celebrity when a driver told her she could meet one inside.
