Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs to spend Christmas eating Macaroni and Cheese and PB&J behind bars

The detained rapper will spend Christmas behind bars, with simple meals and recreational activities .

For Sean “Diddy” Combs, this Christmas will be far from his usual lavish celebrations. The music mogul, currently incarcerated at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, will experience a holiday marked by institutional meals and limited freedoms.

Combs, 55, will start his day in a dormitory-style detention unit, where he has been since his arrest in September on charges including sex trafficking and racketeering. While his current surroundings contrast sharply with the luxury of his former Miami and Los Angeles homes, he is reportedly “doing fine,” according to jail staff.

Christmas lunch at the facility will feature Cornish hen, macaroni and cheese, cranberry sauce, and rolls. For dinner, the festive menu scales down to two peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Beyond meals, the day will mirror others at the detention center, with opportunities for recreation such as basketball, Spades, and dominoes.

Sources say Combs is well-liked among other inmates, often playing three-on-three basketball during his free time. Despite the somber holiday setting, the former Bad Boy mogul maintains a positive demeanor.

Combs is awaiting a May 2025 trial, where he will face both criminal charges and a series of civil lawsuits related to sexual assault allegations. While his legal troubles persist, the Christmas menu at MDC is a stark reminder of his current reality.
