The first week of testimony in the Diddy trial is in the books ... and Cassie is finally off the stand.

The singer testified Friday for the fourth straight day, starting off with cross-examination from Diddy's defense team ... and lots of texts were read to jurors, including one where Cassie told Diddy she wasn't a "rag doll" after the hotel beating incident.

Cassie also referenced an affair she had with an NFL player and told his defense she didn't hate Diddy and actually had love for their past.

Entertainment mogul David Geffen has filed for divorce, to end his less-than-2-year marriage.

David married David Armstrong, aka Donovan Michaels -- a name he used when he performed as a go-go dancer -- 1 year, 11 months ago.

David, with the help of Disso Queen Laura Wasser, cited irreconcilable differences for the split.

Cassie is off the witness stand after 4 days of testimony and she says it was an extremely challenging week ... but also empowering and healing for her.

The singer's lawyer, Douglas Wigdor, read a statement from Cassie outside the Manhattan courthouse Friday after she walked out of the witness box for the final time in Diddy's federal sex trafficking trial.

In her statement, Cassie says ... "I hope that my testimony has given strength and a voice to other survivors, and can help others who have suffered to speak up and also heal from abuse and fear."

Cassie just revealed she's expecting to receive a roughly $10 million settlement from the InterContinental Hotel in Los Angeles ... the same hotel where surveillance cameras captured Diddy beating her in the hallway.

The singer testified about the settlement during questioning from Diddy's defense attorney Anna Estevao in the rap mogul's federal sex trafficking trial in NYC Friday.

Cassie said she was in talks with InterContinental Los Angeles Century City at Beverly Hills Hotel and agreed to the $10 million settlement at some point in the past month.

Cassie and Diddy stayed in touch after they broke up, and while she was dating her now-husband Alex Fine ... and she says she had consensual sex with Diddy after the time he raped her.

More exchanges between Cassie and Diddy were just shown in court Friday while Diddy's defense attorney Anna Estevao was finishing up cross-examining the singer.

Cassie testified the last time she had sex with Diddy was September 27, 2018 -- after Cassie alleges Diddy raped her following a breakup dinner -- and the next day she told him she had a great time with him.

Diddy defense attorney Anna Estevao seems like she's trying to imply that Cassie believed his alleged 2018 rape may have been related to bipolar disorder.

The issue was brought up in court Friday when Estevao was asking Cassie about what she told investigators about Diddy allegedly raping her in 2018 after they had a conversation at dinner about breaking up.

Estevao asked Cassie what she told investigators ... and Cassie said Diddy was acting "nice but strangely" at dinner and "wasn't in his right mind" because when she asked him to stop raping her he did not respond.

Judge Greg Mathis -- who is currently visiting prisons across the U.S. to spread the word of redemption to prisoners and the public -- shares his opinion on the Menendez brothers' plan to do the same ... if they get out, that is.

ICYMI, during the brothers' resentencing hearing earlier this week, retired Judge Jonathan Colby took the witness stand remotely to express interest in accompanying the Menendez bros on a tour to speak with judges who don’t believe redemption is possible.

Check the clip -- Mathis jokingly tells us that former Judge Colby stole his idea ... though he says these two weren't on his own list of high-profile felons, he believes their fame would add to public interest.

"Big Brother" star Memphis Garrett has been arrested for allegedly owing the state of Florida a whole lotta money -- over $50,000 in taxes collected from his businesses.

The Broward Sheriff's Office confirmed to TMZ he was arrested Thursday on a warrant issued by the Department of Revenue ... and we can confirm he's still locked up -- 'cause his $15,000 bond remains unsatisfied.

According to official documents obtained by TMZ ... Memphis -- real name Robert Garrett -- is charged with a second-degree felony for theft of state funds.

Cassie Ventura says she doesn't have any hate in her heart for Diddy ... and she actually has love for their past.

The singer is being cross-examined in court Friday, and Diddy defense attorney Anna Estevao straight-up asked Cassie if she hated Diddy now.

Cassie testified, "I don't hate him."

Cassie Ventura is testifying about a now-imprisoned sex worker who claimed, way back in 2018, he was Diddy's sex slave ... and while everyone thought he was crazy back then, he seems vindicated now.

Diddy's attorney Anna Estevao grilled Cassie about male escort Jonathan Oddi, and a 2013 incident where she suspected Oddi had recorded one of their freak-off encounters. In court, Estevao played an audio recording of Cassie threatening a DJ she believed had possession of that video.

She's heard berating him to prove he really had the video -- "If you have it pull it up or I will kill you, and he will kill you again." The "he" appears to be referring to Diddy.

8:57 AM PT -- The jury was shown more text exchanges between Diddy and Cassie, this time from April 2010 regarding freak offs.

A text from Cassie reads ... "I want to talk to you about something tomorrow. Going to sleep. Love you."

Diddy responded ... "Is it going to stress me out? What is it about."

Cassie: "Freak-off. It can wait. It's not a big deal."

Diddy: "Now you don't want to do it anymore. Oh, I already know. You are so predictable."

Cassie: "Really? OK. Since that's definitely what it was, we'll leave it at that then, since I'm so predictable. Have a good night."

Diddy: "Whatever, Baby. I'm not going to play no games with you and you ain't gonna keep shutting me down."

Cassie: "I'm not shutting you down. I never do. If anything, it's always the other way around. I wasn't going to say I didn't want to do it anymore."

7:30 AM PT -- After the "rag doll" text, the jury was then shown a text exchange between Diddy and Cassie referencing the weekend of the InterContinental Hotel beating.

A text from Diddy reads ... "I felt that way from Friday. What are you doing."

Ventura responded ... "Not a good vibe. We need a different vibe than Friday."

Diddy: “F*** Friday lol. I don’t even want to do that again."

Cassie: "Lol true." Following more texts, the exchange ends with Ventura writing "Love you."

The assault caught on camera in the hotel hallway is time- and date-stamped March 5, 2016 -- a Saturday. Testimony has confirmed some of the former couple's alleged "freak-offs" lasted for 12 hours or longer. It is unclear exactly what the text exchange is directly referring to.

Cassie is back for her fourth day of testimony Friday in Diddy's federal sex trafficking trial in NYC -- today is her second day being cross-examined by the defense -- and the rap mogul's former girlfriend is once again answering questions about text exchanges from the relationship.

Jurors were shown a text message Cassie sent to Diddy on March 10, 2016 ... 5 days after the infamous incident at the InterContinental Hotel in L.A. captured on security video, showing Diddy beating Cassie in a hallway.

"When you get f***ed up the wrong way you always want to show me that you have the power and you knock me around. I’m not a rag doll, I’m someone’s child," the message reads.

Diddy prosecutors are pulling the baby card to limit the defense counsel's cross-examination of Cassie to the end of today.

Here's the deal ... federal prosecutors filed a letter with the court Friday in an attempt to prevent the defense's questioning of Cassie on the witness stand from spilling into next week.

Prosecutors say the reason is simple ... they don't want to risk that the judge might be forced to declare a mistrial if the very pregnant Cassie suddenly goes into labor and can't continue her testimony.

5:23 AM PT -- Chris Brown will remain in police custody following his UK arrest and grievous bodily harm charge, Judge Joanne Hirst ruled Friday, TMZ can confirm. His next appearance will be on June 13 at London's Southwark Crown Court.

Chris Brown has been charged with one count of grievous bodily harm in response to him allegedly smashing a tequila bottle over a music producer's head in 2023.

He was expected to appear at Manchester Magistrates’ Court at 10 AM on Friday, the Metropolitan Police Service confirmed.

Adele Kelly, the Deputy Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS London North, also confirmed his charge and reminded anyone interested in the case proceedings "are active and that he has the right to a fair trial."

As the first week of testimony in the Diddy trial draws to a close, TMZ has obtained more never-before-seen footage of Diddy and his A-list pals chillin' and chowin' down on some bird at Thanksgiving dinner in 2017.

Check out the footage... Diddy is hosting Thanksgiving dinner at his L.A. mansion, and the guest list is just insane! Chris Brown and Wiz Khalifa can be seen on a couch chatting with some folks -- and both seem to be havin' a good ol' time.

Usher is also in the house ... at one point, the R&B singer is seen shaking hands with Diddy, who is smiling brightly as the two shoot the s**t. .

Another whirlwind day in the Diddy trial is in the books ... and Cassie Ventura had a lot of important testimony while getting grilled by Diddy's defense team.

The singer was back on the stand Thursday for a third straight day, though this was the first instance where she was cross-examined ... with Diddy defense attorney Anna Estevao leading the line of questioning.

Jurors heard and read a bunch of communications between Diddy and Cassie from their decades-long relationship ... including messages where Cassie seemed to be showing excitement for freak-offs.

Nikki Bella has to pay her ex-husband a whole lotta cash ... including thousands of dollars a month in child support as part of their final divorce settlement.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Nikki's also responsible for covering the cost of Matteo's speech therapist -- but they'll go halfsies on all of his extracurricular activities.
