In the newly released documentary TMZ Presents: The Downfall of Diddy, O'Day, 40, claimed that Combs, 54, offered her a deal of $300.30 "for a full release of all claims against Diddy and many other players".

The Making the Band alum said that she "never can disparage Diddy on any social media site, on any podcast, on any format".

O'Day added: "Once you sign it, in fact, it said you can never mention the existence of this contract ever again."

The Damaged singer further explained why she thought the clause was included: "I think you would be making moves to keep as many people quiet as possible."

She continued: "It asked me to not be able to have access to my story and my experience anymore.

"It asked me specifically to stay silent and never speak poorly about a human. So then I realized something really bad is coming because this isn’t a man that was reformed."

Meanwhile, a slew of A-list celebrities reportedly were confronted with other incentives in exchange for their silence, though with much heavier weight.
