Roc Nation has asked the court to hold the CEO’s daughter in contempt after an interview led to thousands of threats.
Desiree Perez is asking a Florida court to hold her daughter Demoree Hadley in contempt after an online interview and Instagram activity allegedly violated a court order and triggered a wave of threats against the Roc Nation CEO and her legal team.
The nasty family feud stems from a lawsuit Hadley filed in May 2025, accusing her mother and Roc Nation of orchestrating her involuntary psychiatric commitment under Florida’s Baker and Marchman Acts.
Hadley claims Perez used her influence to detain her for over two weeks without cause, alleging false claims of drug abuse and suicidal behavior.
In response to the lawsuit, Roc Nation secured a special court order barring Hadley and her husband from making public statements about the case, including on social media.
According to court filings, Hadley violated that order by participating in an interview with YouTuber Tasha K and allowing the video to be shared on her Instagram page.
The company says Hadley “affirmatively violated this Court’s Special Order and publicize[d] an interview she gave about this case to further influence public perception.”
Hadley told the court she didn’t intentionally share the video and that Tasha K added her as a “collaborator,” which automatically posted the video to her account.
Hadley said she removed it the same day.
Roc Nation isn’t buying any of it and said the post was not accidental, as Hadley claimed, but a deliberate move to incite online attention.
“There’s no way it would appear on her account unless Demoree made that choice,” the company argued.
The fallout from the interview has been severe. Roc Nation says Perez and her attorneys have received thousands of threatening messages.
“[Hadley] and her husband’s inappropriate social media posts…have created an untenable reality for
multiple Defendants as well as their counsel, who face daily threats as a consequence of [Hadley’s]
and her husband’s conduct,” Roc Nation’s lawyer Timothy A. Kolaya explained.
Hadley allegedly violated that order by sending it to a social media influencer, who reposted it online. The post was shared, including by Hadley’s husband.
Rap star Nicki Minaj has also been going after Jay-Z, Roc Nation and Perez and defending Hadley. Nicki claims she was victimized by similair tactics by Roc Nation and Desiree Perez.
Now, Roc Nation is asking the court to find Hadley in contempt for violating the judge’s order.
While the Roc hasn’t specified what penalties it seeks, a contempt ruling could lead to sanctions or other legal consequences. The court has not yet ruled on the contempt motion.
