Former editor of Vibe magazine, Danyel Smith, claimed to have received death threats from Sean Diddy Combs. The incident happened over getting approval for photos of the hip-hop rapper for a story.

Diddy's feud with Danyel Smith dates back to the 90s, with a threatening call that has haunted her. Danyel claims Diddy threatened her, leading to legal involvement and later a faxed apology.
