Imprisoned hip-hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs will remain in federal lockup for an additional two months, according to Bureau of Prisons records, after a news report exposed numerous prison rules he has been violating behind bars.
Combs is serving a 50-month sentence at the federal prison at Fort Dix in Southern New Jersey after he was found guilty of two Mann Act violations at his sensational New York trial last summer. A jury of 12 acquitted the near-billionaire of the more serious federal charges of racketeering and **** trafficking, rejecting prosecutors' case that Combs Enterprises staff formed a top-down criminal enterprise or that his "freak off" parties constituted **** trafficking.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' projected prison release has moved back 41 days, reversing recent changes that had brought his expected release closer.
Bureau of Prisons records reviewed by PEOPLE on Oct. 7 list March 2, 2028. Combs is currently held at FCI Fort Dix, a low-security federal prison in New Jersey.
The previous projection, Jan. 21, 2028, appeared in records reviewed Sept. 29 and reported by Wealth of Geeks the following day.
The BOP declined to explain the revision, citing privacy, safety and security. A spokesperson for Combs told Us Weekly that his team receives no explanation of how the agency adjusts his dates.
In a Sept. 29 investigation, NBC News reporters Rich Schapiro and Chloe Melas interviewed four men who had spent time in Combs' housing unit. The outlet also reviewed prison photographs and video, including footage appearing to show him using a contraband cellphone.

Amid reports of Sean "Diddy" Combs' "pampered" lifestyle in prison, his release date has been pushed back.
The rap music mogul, who is behind bars at New Jersey's FCI Fort Dix serving a 50-month federal prison sentence, is set for release on March 2, 2028, according to the U.S. Federal Bureau of Prisons' inmate records viewed by USA TODAY. The move comes days after that release date was set for Jan. 21, 2028.
USA TODAY has reached out to Combs' rep for comment.
The news also comes after NBC News' report about Combs' life behind bars, revealing the hip-hop producer apparently has fellow inmates cook and clean for him, give him massages, and has access to outside alcohol and a cellphone, considered contraband.

50 Cent, like clockwork, has publicly commented on news of Sean "Diddy" Combs having reportedly been placed back in solitary confinement.
News of Diddy's change in prison conditions came almost immediately after a sources-citing NBC News report in which the Bad Boy Records founder's life behind bars was described as "pampered." Specifically, the 56-year-old was accused of having enlisted fellow inmates to handle his laundry and provide him with massages, among other menial tasks.
Amid these claims spreading far and wide, TMZ said that Diddy, currently set for a January 2028 release, would be moved into solitary confinement while an investigation was carried out.
"Yo the box again for what?" Fif later wrote in an Instagram post when reacting to the news. "Whatever they say he did, he did that **** . LOL."

Sean "Diddy" Combs is headed back into solitary confinement, a day after a report described a prison life of massages, smuggled liquor, and contraband phones.
Staff at FCI Fort Dix are returning Combs to the facility's Special Housing Unit, according to TMZ, which was told the move came in direct response to this week's NBC News reporting on his alleged perks. Sources described the placement as typical procedure while prison officials run an investigation.
The report in question drew on four men who spent time in Combs' unit at the New Jersey prison. They said the mogul had other inmates making his bed, doing his laundry, and cleaning his toilet before he used it.
Sources also revealed to NBC News that inmates cooked for him on makeshift heating elements, turning out curry chicken, pizza and empanadas, and that others gave him Chinese-style massages. Thousands of dollars a month allegedly flowed into their commissary accounts.

With reports surfacing that the Bad Boy Records founder, real name Sean Combs, will once again have his prison release pushed up, this time to January 2028, O'Day also reacted to allegations that he's living a pampered life behind bars. According to what several former Fort Dix inmates told NBC News, the 56-year-old has paid to be cleaned and cooked for, along with getting massages.
"Thank you, Chloe [Melas] for doing this investigation," the vocalist posted on X in response to the story. "People should understand the difference between rehabilitation and a ****** vacation. The system is broken- this man will come back a worse criminal."

50 Cent was expectedly quick with his reaction to a report claiming that Sean "Diddy" Combs has indeed seen his The Reckoning docuseries, despite presently being behind bars.
In case you missed it, NBC News ran a piece on Tuesday (Sept. 29) in which sources were cited as saying that the Bad Boy Records founder had procured a "jailbroken" tablet. According to those sources, the 56-year-old has used the device to "watch movies and documentaries," Netflix's Emmy-winning Sean Combs: The Reckoning among them.
"Hahahahaha check out my Emmy award-[winning] doc Sean Combs: The Reckoning," Fif, an executive producer on the series, said in a swiftly delivered Instagram update. "Available on Netflix, coming to a prison near you."
Naturally, Fif also used the opportunity to tuck in some Street Fighter promo.

Sean "Diddy" Combs may not be getting out of prison as soon as expected after a Dateline segment this week detailed the luxe lifestyle the rap mogul has allegedly built behind bars, complete with a team of fellow inmates treated like his personal staff.
Since arriving at Fort Dix in October 2025 after more than a year at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, Combs has seen his projected release date bounce around the front half of the 2028 calendar, shifting several times between January and June. It now stands at Jan. 21, 2028. In that time, he has entered a drug rehabilitation program at the New Jersey facility, has been involved in a fight with another inmate, and violated several prison rules while serving a 50-month sentence for Mann Act violations.

With the amount of information available on the internet, it can sometimes be difficult to keep up. Nya (nyaajadee) faced a similar problem when she helped her boyfriend purchase a thrifted shirt for work and later learned that the brand that made the shirt, Sean John, was owned by none other than rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs.
For those wondering why Combs' ****** ociation with the brand is controversial, he is currently incarcerated at the Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution. He is serving a 50-month prison sentence following a criminal conviction in October 2025 for transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution.
So how did Nya learn about the shirt's controversial nature? In a TikTok video, she said that when her boyfriend wore it to the restaurant bar where he works, his colleagues started to laugh at him. "They were like, ****** , dude, a Sean John shirt? Like, you're kind of crazy," Nya said, recounting what his co-workers told him. Nya also shared that her boyfriend repeatedly asked them questions, as he was unaware of what was happening before finally realizing that Sean John was Diddy's clothing brand.
Nya said that after some back and forth, her boyfriend eventually realized that Sean John was Diddy's clothing brand. "We didn't know it was f****** Diddy. I didn't. I knew Diddy. I thought Diddy had pants. Just pants. I knew Diddy had pants. I didn't know he had shirts, too. But also, I didn't know that his clothing company was called Sean John," Nya said. She added, "So I helped my boyfriend pick out a Diddy shirt. What did Sean John do? What did Sean John not do?"
Turns out some people in the comments were as unaware as Nya about Diddy's clothing brand, despite knowing about his criminal conduct. One person wrote, "I didn't even know he made clothes." Another individual reacted similarly and said, "I guess I'm one millennial that was left out the loop lol because I didn't actually know his name other then his stage name, also did not know he had a clothing line."

Sean Combs was reportedly placed back in solitary confinement following a NBC News report that the music mogul was using a contraband cellphone to scroll on Instagram, kept a private stash of premium liquor, and had access to a jailbroken tablet where he watched a Netflix documentary about himself.
The 56-year-old was put in a special housing unit, both NBC and TMZ have reported, after footage was released of Combs seemingly using a cell phone while serving his 50-month sentence at Fort Dix in New Jersey. This would be Combs' second time placed in isolation, following a physical fight with a fellow inmate in July.

Prison hasn't exactly humbled one of hip-hop's biggest moguls — and now his fellow inmates are being promised the high life on the outside.
Sean "Diddy" Combs is promising future opportunities and invitations to his infamous bashes to inmates who help him with daily tasks at FCI Fort Dix, according to Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice Substack report published on Thursday, October 1.
"He's telling these guys, 'When I'm out, I've got you,'" a source told Shuter. "Jobs, money, opportunities — they've even been invited to his next White Party. He's handing out promises like party favors."
That could be a long wait, though.

A California appeals court has ruled that Jay-Z cannot sue a personal injury attorney for extortion or defamation.
The musician's bid to sue was in response to a lawsuit that accused him of raping a 13-year-old girl.
In 2024, Tony Buzbee accused Jay-Z, known legally as Shawn Carter, of raping a child alongside Sean 'Diddy' Combs decades earlier, then dropped the case just months later.
Jay-Z denied the allegations and fought back, claiming the lawyer had fabricated the claims to extort him.
In a new ruling, California's Second Appellate District has decreed that the rap icon cannot sue Buzbee for extortion or defamation over the salacious accusations, even if they were quickly dismissed.
"The record contains no evidence Buzbee accused Carter of raping Jane Doe while knowing those statements to be false or with reckless disregard as to whether they were true," the appeals court wrote in a decision obtained by Billboard.

Sean "Diddy" Combs landed a major win in his defamation case against attorney Ariel Mitchell and her client Courtney Burgess, who claimed to have videos showing the music mogul **** ually **** aulting minors and celebrities at his "freak off" **** parties.
New York federal judge John P. Cronan denied Mitchell's motion to dismiss the lawsuit in a Sept. 4 ruling obtained by USA TODAY, giving Combs the green light to move forward with his $100 million legal action.
Combs first sued Burgess, Mitchell and Nexstar Media for $50 million in January 2025 but amended his complaint seven months later seeking an additional $50 million in damages. In the filing, he accused the lawyer of damaging his reputation by vouching for Burgess' allegations and making allegedly false statements of her own, "including that a police report corroborated an accusation of rape against Combs and that Combs had used drug-laced baby oil to incapacitate his victims."

Trigger Warning: ***** ual ***** ault

Diddy secured a significant legal victory in his defamation case against lawyer Ariel Mitchell and her client Courtney Burgess. Burgess made explosive claims about the music mogul, alleging that he had videos showing Diddy ***** ually ***** aulting minors and celebrities.
Mitchell asked the court to dismiss Diddy's lawsuit, but US District Judge John Cronan has declined to do so. The court ruled that her arguments were not strong enough to warrant ending the case. In a September 4 order, the judge stated that claims alleging Diddy ***** ually ***** aulted people and secretly recorded ***** ual partners have "precise meanings that are readily understood," reports TMZ.
Diddy filed the defamation lawsuit on January 22, 2025. The case was brought in a New York federal court and initially sought $50 million in damages. Later, the amount was increased to $100 million. The lawsuit also named NewsNation's parent company, Nexstar Media. Diddy accused them of promoting "outlandish claims" and "baseless speculation." He claimed the statements were designed to satisfy the public's desire for "wild lies."
Mitchell previously spoke to the outlet about the matter, saying, "This is just a pathetic ploy to silence victims and people who stand up for victims. Diddy has time to sue but refuses to accept service for the lawsuits already filed against him. I look forward to countersuing and ensuring the court punishes not only Diddy but also his lawyers who filed this pathetic lawsuit for this frivolous and meritless filing."
Combs is currently serving a 50-month prison sentence after facing charges of ***** trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution. A court hearing to determine the next steps in the case is scheduled for September 17.

ATLANTA (AP) — Scottie Scheffler was signing for another bogey-free round when he was curious enough about the par-3 ninth hole at 270 yards. The numbers surprised him and validated his thinking about how hard it was to separate at East Lake for the Tour Championship.
The 87 players on that hole in three rounds had made two birdies and six bogeys. Do the math — he does have a degree from the McCombs School of Business at Texas — and that's 79 pars.
"That seems very high," Scheffler said. "It's almost like let's just skip it at this point. If we're all going to make par, what's the point in playing the hole, to be fair?"
Viktor Hovland and Ryan Gerard got a little separation at the end — Hovland with six putts of 7 feet or longer on the last six holes for a 65 and a one-shot lead over Gerard, who was bogey-free in his round of 66 — but the talk all week has been how bunched the scoring has been.
Cameron Young opened with an even-par 70 on Thursday and was in last place. After 54 holes, Kristoffer Reitan and Alex Smalley shared the basement. They were at 3-under 207.

Gene Deal claims he's being pressured to testify in Duane "Keffe D" Davis' murder trial over the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur.
During a conversation with The Art of Dialogue, the former Bad Boy bodyguard explained why he believes his testimony is being sought, claiming there is interest in having him establish a connection between Keffe D and Sean "Diddy" Combs.
"They want me to show that Keffe D and Diddy had a relationship," Deal said. "They want me to establish what I know about Keffe D and Puff coercing with each other when they're around each other. Gambling, laughing, drinking, popping bottles, the whole nine yards. That's what they wanted me to do."
Deal stressed that much of what he knows about the circumstances surrounding Tupac's death came from what others allegedly told him rather than what he personally witnessed.

Holly Marie Combs has revealed she has "retired" from acting.
The Charmed star broke the news of her decision to step back from the screen during an episode of her House of Halliwell podcast on 25 August.
"The stuff that I was getting and coming across my desk was just nothing that I was like, 'Oh my gosh, this is really great. I need to do this,'" Combs explained. "And being in, you know, that 40 to 50 range, the job pool gets even smaller and smaller. And I feel like the roles get a little less interesting."
It's been nearly seven years since the Pretty Little Liars actor has appeared in an on-screen role.
The 52-year-old now lives in Washington state with her husband Mike Ryan and her three kids, Finley, 22, Riley, 19, and Kelley, 17, whom she shares with her ex-husband David Donoho.
Spending more time with her family is another reason she's decided to call it quits.

Holly Marie Combs built a career spanning more than 30 years in Hollywood, anchoring hit series like Charmed and Pretty Little Liars. But in recent years, the actress has largely stepped out of the spotlight. Now she's opening up about what pushed her to step back.
Aside from appearing on friend and former Charmed costar the late Shannen Doherty's podcast and popping up as herself in Pretty Little Wine Moms Re-Watch, Combs, 52, hasn't taken an acting job since a guest spot on Grey's Anatomy back in 2019.
On Tuesday, August 25, Scout Taylor-Compton, who played Thistle on Charmed, joined Combs and her cohost, Brian Krause for an episode of their podcast, House of Halliwell. Like Combs, she grew up in the industry. During the conversation, Combs traced her exit from acting back to the pandemic.

With Kentucky Basketball wrapping up its summer practices Thursday, the Wildcats are now taking time to build team chemistry away from the court.
The team traveled to Eastern Kentucky on Friday for its annual retreat, continuing a tradition that has become a staple under coach Mark Pope.
To begin the trip, the players and staff helped to build a gazebo for the ARH Cancer Center in Hazard. Despite the hot and humid conditions, the Wildcats spent the day working on construction and landscaping while giving back to the local community.
One fan, Ray Combs, took to social media to praise the team for its efforts.
"I just want to take a moment to brag on the KentuckyMBB team and the hard work they have done today building a gazebo for the UK Cancer Center here at Hazard ARH. It's hot, it's humid, and these fellas haven't stopped, neither has CoachMarkPope."
