Jo Eskridge claims she was drugged at Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ New Year’s Eve party at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami – and was videoed when she started throwing up

Former model Jo Eskridge, 43, has made shocking allegations that she was drugged during a New Year’s Eve party in Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ VIP box at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami. She claims that she was filmed as she began to vomit.

Eskridge attended the event with her sister and they spotted the rapper in a private booth. Other celebrities such as Jamie Foxx and Tyrese Gibson were also reportedly present.

These allegations come at a time when Combs is currently incarcerated, awaiting trial after his arrest in New York City last month. The founder of Bad Boy Records faces charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution purposes.

He is also dealing with numerous allegations in several civil lawsuits. Combs has denied all charges and allegations against him

Eskridge recounts that her sister managed to get them into the VIP area where guests were being served champagne and shots. She was halfway through her drink when she started feeling “weird”, reports the Mirror.

She soon found herself unable to walk and was “falling all over the place”, leading her to believe her drink had been spiked. Due to her condition, security removed her from the venue before the party moved on to P Diddy’s yacht.

Eskridge alleges that she began behaving “erratically” and got into a fight with security, which resulted in her being hit in the head with a flashlight and knocked unconscious.

Jo, a former model from Los Angeles, shared her shock encounter with celebrities on New Year’s Eve, saying: “At the time I was a model living in New York City and a promoter friend of mine was hosting a party at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami. I didn’t even know P Diddy was going to be there – I had no idea. I remember my sister meeting P Diddy, Beyonce and Jay Z. After that night I stopped drinking for 10 years, I was embarrassed and I blamed myself. I thought I had too much to drink and I was too drunk – I victim blamed myself.”

Reminiscing about the unexpected celebrity sightings during a New Year’s bash back in 2008, Jo recalls: “My sister and I were having champagne at the bar. My sister got us into the VIP section and that is where P Diddy was – he had his whole party in the VIP section. We went in and everything was cool. They gave everyone a bottle of champagne, it was New Year’s Eve – everything was fine.”

Jo recounts how she and her sister were separated upon entering the VIP section, suspecting they were “targeted” by Combs’ entourage. She recalls feeling “weird” after consuming half a bottle of champagne, stating: “I started feeling animated, a little loopy – it was like an over-exaggerated buzz. I was a 27-year-old model living in New York, I could handle my drink. I started to feel weird – that something was off. Shots were being passed around the room. My sister could see me from across the room and said after I took that shot everything went downhill.”

Suddenly, Jo found herself unable to walk and began vomiting in the VIP area. Alone, she was escorted out by bouncers.

She shared: “Everyone was heading onto the Diddy yacht for an after party and my sister was invited. The next thing I know, a security guard grabbed me – I was in fight or flight mode.”

“I started fighting, it felt like I was fighting for my life. I had three people on top of me, at some point, they hit me on the head with a flashlight and I went unconscious and was bleeding from the head. It is not in my nature to fight, I am not a violent drunk – I think I was spiked because I turned into the Tasmanian devil. That is not me.”

Jo recounted the harrowing night she ended up in Miami’s Dade County Jail, sharing: “In a way that night saved us. My sister was ready to go on the yacht but she didn’t get on as she went searching for me. For years I thought I had ruined this connection and I was so embarrassed of myself.”

She continued, shedding light on her experiences within the hip-hop industry: “Over the years I heard all these allegations about P Diddy and how he is known for passing bottles of champagne and drugging people. I know other women who have experienced the same thing – this was hip-hop culture. My heart goes out to the victims that have been sexually assaulted. It also goes out to the hundreds of people like me who have been spiked. And my heart goes out to the ones who have lost their lives and the victims currently dealing with what they went through.”
