If You Were Expecting To See Diddy In A Jail Uniform During His Trial, You May Be Disappointed

This article contains descriptions of physical abuse and domestic violence.

Fully fallen from grace, rapper and entrepreneur Sean “Diddy” Combs has been in federal custody since his arrest in September 2024. With the trial set to start on May 5, 2025, the list of allegations against Diddy is still hovering over him. Diddy has repeatedly been denied bail and his attempts to withhold damning evidence at his trial have not been granted. However, there was one thing the judge allowed in an attempt to make this highly publicized case a little more approachable for the jury. According to FOX 5 New York, Diddy does not have to wear a bright orange prison jumper.

While Diddy’s diet in prison might be more awful than he expected, he can at least wear some casual clothes to court. He’s been granted permission to rotate through five button-down shirts, sweaters, slacks, some socks, and shoes — as long as they’re slip-ons or at least lace-free. This move was deemed allowable as viewing Diddy in jail attire might give off the vibe to the jury that he’s already guilty. However, considering the growing mountain of evidence against him and the number of celebrities who dumped on Diddy after brutal video footage leaked of him allegedly assaulting then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, it might not matter what he wears to court.
