Embattled rapper and producer, Sean Combs ‘Diddy’ is said to have been axed from the 2024 Met Gala, Radar reports.
According to the report by Radar, sources revealed that Sean Combs who’s at the center of a federal sex trafficking investigation, is being shunned by the fashion world as he fends off multiple sexual assault lawsuits.
While the music mogul insists all of the accusations are bogus, an insider claimed the former fixture at the fashion event who once held massive sway with his Sean John clothing line, won’t receive one of the coveted invites to this year’s event.
Amid Diddy’s legal woes, the world of couture is now shunning the hip-hop star!
According to the National Enquirer, the source noted, “Now he finds himself grappling not only with the preservation of his reputation but also with the loss of his standing within an industry that has unequivocally distanced itself from him.”
The Met Gala refusing to invite Diddy wouldn’t be the first time the music mogul has been kept far away from one of Hollywood’s biggest nights due to his ongoing legal issues.
Radar also reported that Diddy’s 2024 Grammy Awards invitation was being evaluated and ultimately never sent as the music industry legend was hit with several lawsuits from women, including ex-girlfriend Casandra “Cassie” Ventura, who accused him of rape and assault.
While the Recording Academy was carefully mulling over Diddy, a rep told Radar on December 11, 2023, “We are taking this matter very seriously and we are in the process of evaluating it with the time and care that it deserves.”
Ultimately, Diddy did not attend the award show.
In addition to invitations to prestigious events being on the chopping block, over a dozen companies dropped Diddy in the wake of his sexual assault lawsuits. At least 18 brands parted ways with Empower Global, reported Rolling Stone.
It was revealed that Diddy had allegedly sold his shares of Revolt TV last week.
