What will Sean ‘Diddy' Combs wear during his sex trafficking trial day? Here, have a look
Sean 'Diddy' Combs is preparing to face the long-awaited trial on serious federal charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering. The music mogul has been granted permission to wear civilian clothing during the trial instead of his prison-issued uniform.
Now you might be wondering what Puff will wear on his trial day? Court documents cited by People Magazine detail that on Wednesday, Combs' legal team made a formal request for the 55-year-old to appear in court wearing non-prison clothing.

The Southern District of New York approved the motion, allowing him to have a limited wardrobe that includes up to five button-down shirts, five pairs of pants, five sweaters, five pairs of socks, and two pairs of shoes without laces.
Earlier, Combs appeared in court dressed in a tan jail uniform. His trial is scheduled to begin on Monday, May 5, and is expected to run for approximately eight weeks.
Combs was hit with the charges stemming from a sweeping indictment that was filed in September 2024 and led to his arrest in New York City. Prosecutors accuse him of using his business and music empire as a front for trafficking sex and coercing his victims. One of the more disturbing claims includes orchestrating notorious 'freak-offs' parties.
On April 15, Combs faced additional charges related to Victim-2, including another count of sex trafficking and one for transportation to engage in prostitution.
The disgraced music mogul has pleaded not guilty to all charges and has denied all the allegations brought against him. The latter carries a potential sentence of 15 years to life in prison.
On Wednesday, Cassie Ventura, the estranged girlfriend of Combs, is one of the expected witnesses at the trial. Notably, in November 2023, Ventura filed another lawsuit against Combs for sexual assault. It was settled just one day after that case was filed.

Other individuals, referred to as Victim-2 and Victim-4 in court documents, are also scheduled to testify but will do so anonymously to protect their identities. Since Ventura's lawsuit, dozens of additional lawsuits have emerged, alleging sexual misconduct by Combs.

Protest heat rises in poll-bound Ludhiana
Bathinda: With the Ludhiana West byelection looming, the city is now on the radar of protesters of various hues — a pattern observed in previous poll-bound areas like Bathinda during the SAD-BJP tenure and Patiala-Chamkaur Sahib under the Congress govt. While some employee and unemployed unions are already holding agitations, the family of a deceased village sarpanch and members of various organisations are set to descend on Ludhiana on Thursday for a candle march. Their target: Guru Harsahai MLA Fauja Singh Sarari and his personal assistant, Bachittar Singh, demanding immediate action against them for alleged abetment to suicide. The protesters plan to converge near Gate Number 1 of Punjab Agriculture University, a stone's throw from the AAP election office for the Ludhiana West byelection. They intend to hold a protest march. Jashan Bawa, 24, the sarpanch of Trinda village and an AAP member, died by suicide on May 31. His family alleges that Bawa was driven to the extreme step due to continuous harassment by MLA Sarari and his personal assistant. On June 9, villagers and various organisations staged a protest at Lakho Ke Behram police station, disrupting the Ferozepur-Fazilka highway to demand justice. Ferozepur police have formed a special investigations team (SIT), comprising two SP-level officers and one DSP, to investigate the matter and determine the MLA's alleged role in the incident. MLA Sarari has denied the allegations, attributing them to a smear campaign by certain individuals, including members of his own party. Meanwhile, a separate wave of protests is set to hit Ludhiana on June 16, organised by the Narinderdeep death action committee. They are demanding a judicial inquiry into the alleged custodial death of 34-year-old IELTS teacher Narinderdeep, who died in Bathinda on May 23. The committee is also demanding the nomination of the CIA-2 in-charge in the case, the arrest of implicated police officers, a government job for a bereaved family member, and compensation.

The sources close to the couple revealed that the tension between the two arose after the musician went under pressure over her poor tour reviews. Perry and Bloom were first linked in 2016. The duo parted ways for a year in 2017, but got back together, and Bloom popped the big question to Perry in 2019. While the musician said yes, the pair also welcomed their first daughter, Daisy Dove, in 2020. What did sources reveal about Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom's relationship? Speaking to People Magazine about the strain in Perry and the Pirates of the Caribbean actor 's relationship, an insider shared that the singer was under a lot of pressure.

They added, 'It made her very stressed. Orlando was understanding, but it did cause some tension.' An insider, in conversation with Page Six, also stated that 'It's over' between the celebrities and that the duo is waiting for Perry to return from her Lifetimes tour before they head for the split. The source also revealed that Bloom flew back to Miami last month amid the tension caused in his personal life. Meanwhile, Perry, who made her appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, opened up about having the shortest fights with her beau. Addressing her past breakup with the actor, the musician revealed to the podcast host, 'We weren't really in it from day one. He was because he had just done a huge time of celibacy, and he had set intentions. I was fresh out of a relationship, and I was like, I can't do this anymore. I need to swim in a different pond, but I had to do a lot of real work.' In the same month, the Harleys in Hawaii crooner revealed that she and Bloom argue hot and fast. 'It's like, 'La la la la la, I love you. Alright, let's move on.'' The couple previously admitted to turning to couples therapy to keep their relationship together.
