Diddy Turned 55 Behind Bars
Diddy recently had to celebrate his 55th birthday at his Brooklyn MDC jail, where he has been locked up since he was arrested in September following a grand jury indictment.
According to a report, the rapper's birthday meal schedule suggested the celebration was unlike anyone he's had before due to the quality of the food.
The Revolt co-founder also got a call from his children for his birthday celebration.
"I love y'all, I love y'all so much," Diddy told his children when they called to sing him "Happy Birthday."
"I can't wait to see y'all. I just want to say that I'm proud of y'all, especially the girls. I mean, all y'all just for being strong," he added, per Page Six.
The rapper then thanked the kids for being by his side and supporting him through his trying phase.
"I got the best family in the world. [It's] my birthday. I'm happy. Thank you," he said.
His Legal Team Requested A Gag Order Against Witnesses
Diddy's attorneys recently asked a judge for a gag order against grand jury witnesses after one of them made some scandalous remarks about sex tapes, which the rapper's legal team said were "outrageous" claims.
In a letter to Judge Arun Subramanian filed on Sunday, Diddy's team, led by attorneys Marc Agnifilo and Teny Geragos, requested an immediate gag order that would "restrain extrajudicial statements by potential witnesses and their counsel" following what they described as a "deluge of improper pretrial publicity that is undermining Mr. Combs' right to a fair trial and the integrity of the grand jury proceedings."
According to USA Today, the letter read, "Over the past several days, a grand jury witness and his attorney have given multiple interviews – including outside the courthouse immediately following his apparent grand jury testimony – making false and outrageous claims, including that the witness possesses videos of Mr. Combs involved in the sexual assault of celebrities and minors."
The Witness, Courtney Burgess, Claims He Has The Rapper's Sex Tapes
Courtney Burgess has been making headlines, claiming he has or has seen disturbing videos of Diddy "victimizing" at least eight of his celebrity friends, which Diddy's lawyers said were untrue and defamatory.
Last Thursday, Burgess and his attorney, Ariel Mitchell, appeared before a federal courthouse in lower Manhattan to testify for a grand jury.
He revealed that a grand jury had subpoenaed him after claiming he had sex tapes from Diddy's parties and the real memoir of Kim Porter, Diddy's late ex-girlfriend and mother of 4 of his kids.
The witness claims the videos came from a flash drive owned by Diddy's ex-partner, the late Kim Porter, who allegedly obtained the footage from hidden cameras in the rapper's home.
