Popularity and reputation are not eternal. More and more celebrities who were recently basking in success are realizing this harsh truth. One of the most spectacular falls in show business was R. Kelly. The star was first sentenced to 30 years in prison and a year later received an additional 20 years. The charges against him include running organized criminal activities.
P. Diddy - the fall of an icon
It seems that P. Diddy, also known as Sean Combs, might share a similar fate. The renowned producer is considered an icon of the hip-hop scene. His dark activities have been whispered about in the industry for years, but until recently, he avoided prison. Throughout his career, he worked with many artists who today would rather forget those collaborations. This is all because, in mid-September, the rapper was arrested and charged with serious offenses, including physical and mental abuse of women.
Currently, P. Diddy is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, awaiting trial. The court did not agree to release the star even if a $50 million bail was posted. There were concerns that he could manipulate witnesses in the upcoming trial outside of prison or even flee from justice. Of course, Diddy denies the charges against him.
Is P. Diddy not eating in prison?
The prison where P. Diddy is held is known, among other things, for its high suicide rate among inmates. However, the rapper's lawyers assure that their client does not have suicidal thoughts and is under constant observation.
There were also reports in the press that Diddy had stopped eating. The prison diet is certainly a far cry from the luxuries he had grown accustomed to. Foreign media claimed that it wasn't the taste of the meals that deterred the rapper but rather the fear of poisoning. Combs' close associates debunked these rumors.
He's eating normal jailhouse food like any other inmate - the music mogul receives no special treatment - reveals TMZ's informant.
Although it is said that in prison, the rapper doesn't behave paranoically, many believe that he has reasons to be cautious. Diddy's old enemy, Suge Knight, claims he had better be careful because other inmates are probably already plotting against him.
