Sean “Diddy” Combs gave creative notes to the court sketch artist. He thought her drawings made him look like a koala.
Sean “Diddy” Combs has apparently seen the court sketches of him. As cameras are not allowed in the courtroom, sketches are the only way to visualize the goings-on of his trial. Combs looks notably older and thinner in the drawings. He reportedly doesn’t like the way the artist depicted him. He told her to draw him differently.
Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs gave the court sketch artist notes
As courtroom sketch artist Christine Cornell drew Combs, she admitted she found it difficult to keep her feelings about him off the page.
“He actually looks pretty sinister,” Christine Cornell told NBC News. “It was one where I thought, ‘Did you cross the line, Christine? Are you letting your feelings creep in?’ Because I confess, I am having a little bit of a hard time with him.”
She said that on the first day of trial, Combs turned and waved to her. This was the only communication between them. Sketch artist Jane Rosenberg had a longer interaction, though. He turned to her with a specific request.
“Soften me up a bit, you’re making me look like a koala bear,” Combs said, per Reuters.
Combs’ trial is in its final days. If convicted, he faces life in prison.
