The support for Cassie Ventura has been flowing in since Sean “Diddy” Combs was found not guilty of sex trafficking her ... and one star in particular showed her solidarity.
As TMZ reported ... Cassie's lawyer Doug Wigdor said his client “paved the way” for Diddy to be found guilty on counts 3 and 5 -- which are both transportation for the purpose of prostitution, AKA the Mann Act. Diddy faces a maximum sentence of 10 years each for those counts.
And not long after the news broke ... Kesha shared a message via social media, saying ... “Cassie, I believe you. I love you. Your strength is a beacon for every survivor.”
12:36 PM PT --Aubrey took to Instagram with a lengthy statement regarding the Diddy verdict. She clearly doesn't agree with the jurors' decision and says that she is heart broken for Cassie and the other victims.
Diddy's former Danity Kane singer Aubrey O'Day was none too pleased with him being found guilty of only 2 of 5 counts in his federal criminal trial -- to the point where she may need a barf bag!!!
Aubrey was glued to CNN when Diddy was offered some breathing room after learning he wouldn't be sent to prison for life ... a verdict that Aubrey claimed had her tasting vomit, over her sadness for the victims.

50 trolled Diddy throughout the trial, even adopting the evil genius of A.I. images ... but had to tip his hat and acknowledged his OG title as a "Bad Boy" within the music industry.
