A cast member of the hit show “Baddies Gone Wild” on The Zeus Network was coerced into having sex with the network’s CEO with promises of making her a star, according to a bombshell new lawsuit.
Jadynn Brown, who made a splash on the first season of the popular series accused Lemuel Plummer of sexual assault, sexual harassment, and wrongful termination in documents obtained by The California Post. The suit also named The Zeus Networks as a defendant.
Plummer was credited as an executive producer on “Baddies.”
Brown alleged that in March 2023, when she was 19, Plummer propositioned her — telling her he would hire her for “Baddies” if she had sex with him, according to the lawsuit.
The complaint further alleges Plummer repeatedly coerced Brown into having sex throughout 2023 and 2024. During their encounters, he allegedly told her she had “a great personality” for “Baddies,” and would be “a star” on the show.
Brown auditioned and was offered the role in January of 2025. The next month, just days before shooting started, Plummer allegedly coerced her into having sex again and signing an NDA about their relationship, according to the lawsuit.
Plummer allegedly coerced her into sex again in March 2025, this time while she was intoxicated, according to the documents. “When plaintiff told defendant Plummer that she was on her period to avoid having sex, he asked to see proof and continued to pressure her until she complied.”
Plummer was having unprotected sex with several other cast members on the show, Brown alleged.
“Plummer again coerced plaintiff into having sex with him, despite plaintiff’s protests. Realizing the harassment would not stop, plaintiff refused to continue with her audition and refused to see Plummer again,” during the audition for season 2 in January of 2026, according to the lawsuit.
The Zeus Network is a subscription streaming platform featuring stars including Blac Chyna, Ray J and Nick Cannon. Plummer co-created the network and has said he learned the television business from his parents, who owned three Detroit TV stations.
Plummer previously dated Zeus host Janeisha John and recently welcomed a daughter with his partner, Scotlynd “Scotty” Ryan, a Zeus star. Their pregnancy was heavily documented by the network in the series “Scotty With the Baby.”
In her lawsuit, Brown claims she has suffered lost earnings, missed casting opportunities, career setbacks and emotional distress. She is seeking damages to be determined by a jury.
The Zeus Network did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
