Diplo is making headlines once again but for all the wrong reasons. This latest controversy is particularly extreme, as the superstar DJ is being accused of distributing revenge porn. A lawsuit regarding this matter has already been filed.
The case has been brought in California by an unidentified woman referred to as Jane Doe, who claims to have had an intimate relationship with Diplo between 2016 and 2023. In 2023, the woman allegedly discovered that Diplo had been distributing videos of their sexual encounters without her consent. She also stated that she received these videos from another woman who had obtained them via Snapchat. On November 7 2023, Doe reported Diplo to the New York Police Department, resulting in the issuance of an arrest warrant.

In a statement sent to Variety, the victim’s lawyer Helene Weiss stated: “Tragically, this is not the first time the defendant has shamed and violated a woman by disseminating intimate images without her consent. Diplo’s alleged illicit pattern of behavior illustrates the harm he’s caused Jane Doe, and other young women just like her. Our client deserves justice, and she’s hopeful that this litigation may serve as a catalyst in ending the defendant’s repeated victimization of women once and for all.”
There has been no response from Diplo or his representatives yet. This isn’t the first time Diplo has been in this kind of legal trouble. In 2020, another woman named Shelly Auguste also said Diplo shared private videos of her. She first filed a case then, but it didn’t work out. In 2023, Auguste filed again with the Los Angeles police after she said she received revenge porn of herself that Diplo had recorded.
