Diddy Spends 55th Birthday in Prison with Basic Menu, Far from Star-Studded Past
Sean "Diddy" Combs celebrated his 55th birthday in an unexpected setting - the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, marking a dramatic shift from his typically lavish celebrations.

His prison birthday menu consisted of:
- Breakfast: Cereal, fruit, and a small breakfast cake
- Lunch (11 AM): Pasta marinara, meatballs, and side salad
- Dinner: Choice of chicken or tofu fried rice with black beans and carrots
This modest meal stands in stark contrast to Diddy's previous birthday celebrations, which were known for exclusive venues, celebrity guests like Mariah Carey and Leonardo DiCaprio, and premium champagne service.
Currently awaiting trial on sex trafficking and racketeering charges, Diddy remains in federal custody after being denied bail multiple times. His trial is scheduled for May 2025. The charges follow a settled lawsuit from his ex, Cassie Ventura, who alleged abuse during their relationship.
Despite these circumstances, Diddy maintains his innocence and has pleaded not guilty. His family continues to support him, with his children publicly defending him against what they call "conspiracy theories." His legal team remains confident, stating they trust in the judicial process and their legal defenses.
According to his attorney Marc Agnifilo, the prison food has been "the roughest part" of Diddy's incarceration experience, highlighting the significant lifestyle adjustment the music mogul now faces.
