A woman who has accused rappers Jay-Z and Sean "Diddy" Combs of raping her when she was 13 after the MTV Video Music Awards in 2000, has acknowledged inconsistencies in her story.
The woman, who is identified only as "Jane Doe" (a US legal term to say that she is anonymous), told Sky's US partner NBC News, "I have made some mistakes", but says she stands by her allegations overall.
Jay-Z - whose real name is Shawn Carter - and Combs both deny the allegations.
Inconsistencies include the woman alleging she was picked up by her father following the alleged assault, but he says he doesn't recall making the journey, which would have taken over five hours.
She also named a celebrity she said she spoke to during the party, but that celebrity has said they were not at the party and was touring at the time.
Professional images reviewed by NBC News show Combs and Carter at a different location than the one the woman described. It is not clear what time those images were taken, or if Combs and Carter attended any other after-parties.
The inconsistencies in her account of the incident - alleged to have happened 24 years ago - do not necessarily mean the allegations are false.
A friend who she says drove her from her home in Rochester, New York, to Radio City Music Hall in New York City, is since understood to have died.
The federal lawsuit has been filed by Texas-based lawyer Tony Buzbee, who says he is representing 120 accusers in cases against Combs.
