Diddy's 55th Birthday: From Luxury Bashes to Prison Cafeteria Meals
Sean "Diddy" Combs spent his 55th birthday in the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, marking a dramatic shift from his traditionally lavish celebrations.

His prison birthday meal consisted of:
- Breakfast: Cereal, fruit, and a small breakfast cake
- Lunch: Pasta marinara, meatballs, and side salad (served at 11 a.m.)
- Dinner: Choice of chicken or tofu fried rice with black beans and carrots
This modest meal contrasts sharply with Diddy's past birthday celebrations, which featured A-list celebrities, champagne, and exclusive venues. His attorney, Marc Agnifilo, noted that prison food has been "the roughest part" of his client's incarceration.
Currently facing 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 challenges, Diddy's family continues to support him, with his children publicly defending him against what they call "conspiracy theories." His legal team maintains his innocence and has expressed confidence in the judicial process.
Prior to his arrest in September 2024, Diddy's birthday parties were legendary events attended by celebrities like Mariah Carey, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Justin Bieber, including his famous "Real White Party" in 2007.
