Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ Christmas Menu in Jail Revealed
|Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek’s network of contributors
Sean “Diddy” Combs will spend his first Christmas behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York.
The disgraced hip-hop mogul, 55, is currently incarcerated while awaiting trial on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and prostitution and has been denied bail three times.
For his Christmas meal on December 25, Diddy can look forward to a special holiday spread. Per TMZ, the lunch menu will include baked Cornish hen, macaroni and cheese, cranberry sauce, dinner rolls, and a dessert to mark the special occasion.
The outlet also reported that the Bad Boy records CEO and his fellow inmates will still be able to take part in some recreational activities. According to TMZ‘s sources, the prison will host card games like spades and dominoes, and there will also be a three-on-three basketball tournament and soccer competition for those looking to stay active.
This holiday season likely marks a difficult time for the music mogul, who has pleaded not guilty to the charges against him. He was arrested on September 16 and has been held in federal custody ever since. A judge ruled that Diddy posed a significant threat to his alleged victims – which includes over 100 people of various ages and genders – denying his request for bail during a hearing in late November. Prosecutors argued that Combs could intimidate witnesses, pointing to evidence of alleged witness tampering while in custody.
Diddy just spent his first Thanksgiving behind bars, which consisted of a similar meal. According to Federal Bureau of Prisons, the rapper had a breakfast spread which included fruit, pastries, and cereal. For lunch, he was served a classic turkey roast, mashed potatoes with gravy, mixed vegetables, cranberry sauce, and dinner rolls.
The “I’ll Be Missing You’ hitmaker faces multiple lawsuits from individuals who accuse him of rape, sexual assault, abuse, and drugging. He has denied all accusations.
