Diddy’s sad birthday meal as he turns 55 in ‘hell-hole’ jail after complaining food is ‘roughest’ part of lockup
SEAN “Diddy” Combs’ sad birthday meal behind bars has been revealed as the disgraced music mogul turns 55 today inside an infamous New York prison.
The Bad Boy Records founder is marking his first birthday today since being arrested in September on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.
While Combs’ previous birthdays have been marked with lavish parties, A-list celebrities, and the best food and drink money can buy, this year’s event will be a much quieter affair.
Breakfast at Brooklyn’s notorious Metropolitan Detention Center is a far cry from the luxurious banquets the producer had grown accustomed to.
Instead, his options include biscuits and gravy, oven-browned potatoes, bread, and oatmeal, as revealed by the New York Post.
Last month, Combs’ attorney Marc Agnifilo said that “the food’s probably the roughest part,” of his client’s time in jail.
However, he does get better options at lunch, when inmates have the choice of cheese pizza, Italian pasta salad, and green beans, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
That meal is served at 11 am.
His birthday dinner options are either chicken or tofu fried rice with black beans and carrots.
Dinner is served at 4 pm.
Combs was arrested at a New York hotel on September 16 on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.
He was denied bail several times and must stay in his high-profile prison ahead of his trial, which is set for May 5, 2025.
The producer behind many of the 1990s’ biggest hits is accused of forcing victims to take part in “Freak Offs” – elaborate sex parties that Combs is alleged to have arranged, directed, filmed, and pleasured himself to.
Victims were allegedly drugged beforehand, and prosecutors claim Diddy used footage of the parties as blackmail material.
He is also accused of threatening and intimidating victims with guns when they wouldn’t go along with him.
Federal raids of Combs’ properties in Miami and Los Angeles this year reportedly turned up 100s of bottles of baby oil, sex toys, cameras, and a number of weapons with their serial numbers illegally removed.
Combs has denied the accusations and pleaded not guilty to all charges against him.
