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.

Identity of Aaron Rodgers' wife remains a mystery as ex-girlfriend says he was ‘emotionally abusive'
Aaron Rodgers left fans stunned by announcing that he is married. On Tuesday, the NFL quarterback revealed during a news conference that he has been married for a couple of months. 'Been a couple of months,' he told reporters after confirming that the ring on his finger was a wedding ring. The wedding rumours had first begun when Rodgers was spotted wearing a wedding ring at the Kentucky Derby, which took place on May 3, 2025. Rodgers, 41, did not disclose the name of his wife and her identity remains a mystery. That has not stopped internet users from theorizing who she could be. In April, during an appearance on the The Pat McAfee Show, the American footballer had said that he is in a pretty serious relationship, reported USA Today. He also revealed that the name of the woman he was dating is Brittani. However, it is not clear if Brittani is the woman Rodgers has married. The announcement of marriage comes weeks after Aaron Rodgers's ex-girlfriend, Danica Patrick, confirmed that she is single. Rodgers and Patrick broke up in 2020. According to a People magazine report, during an episode of The Sage Steele Show on May 21, Patrick was asked about the 'most amount of pain' she's experienced in her life. 'The breakup with Aaron in 2020,' the former race car driver and model replied. Danice Patrick followed it up by calling her relationship with the Pittsburgh Steelers player emotionally abusive. 'Because it was sudden, it felt like. It was my life. So like when you live with somebody, it's your whole life,' she said. 'And because the nature of the relationship was emotionally abusive, so that wore me down to nothing.' 'People could never imagine that I would lack … any confidence or belief in the simple things about who I am. 'Everything was torn to bits. Yeah, he leaves a trail of blood. I don't think I'm saying too much earth-shattering stuff after we — there's been enough out there,' said Patrick.
