NBC News: P. Diddy leads lavish lifestyle in prison

Rap artist Sean Combs, known as P. Diddy, is serving a prison sentence on privileged terms. He is served by several inmates who cook, clean and massage for him, NBC News reported, based on anonymous testimony from other inmates, as well as photo and video footage.

Sean Combs is being held at Fort Dix Federal Prison in New Jersey as inmate #37452-054. According to sources, he spends thousands of dollars a month to maintain the usual level of comfort behind bars: money is transferred from the will to the personal accounts of prisoners who help him. In addition, Combs uses contraband to have access to a phone and tablet to browse social networks or to elite alcohol - in particular, cognac.

Official agencies do not comment on the situation. A spokesman for the Bureau of Prisons told NBC it did not comment on the conditions of specific inmates' detention on "privacy, safety and security considerations." He also cited the fact that in many correctional facilities "smuggling remains a persistent problem.".

Fort Dix holds 4,000 prisoners. Diddy has been there since October 2025, when he was sentenced to 50 months. The perpetrator was found guilty of two counts of sexual exploitation and involvement in prostitution. The prosecutor's office requested 11 years in prison for him.
