Start your week with the Monday Diddy report

Another day, another bunch of stories relating to Diddy, his business practices, his freak off parties, and all the rest of the tawdry stuff that keeps coming out.

A judge has denied Diddy’s request for a gag order

Diddy’s lawyers had asked that a judge issue an order preventing anyone from saying anything in Diddy’s case before the trial. Nope. The judge had none of that argument. We’ll continue to hear more until the trial starts May 5.

This Taylor Swift comment hasn’t aged well

As the Irish Star puts it, these comments “have aged like milk.”

This old Usher interview is interesting.

Usher, who considered Diddy a mentor, said this back in 2017 when asked what he learned from Diddy: “I don’t sleep to this day. I got it from him. I mean this is a dude who just never slept. I mean, he’s probably the first one to get up and the last one to go to sleep, and that commitment I picked up.”

What’s going on at Diddy’s jail?

There was some kind of “interagency operation.”

Meek Mill has put up a reward

If some of the stories are to be believed, Meek Mill may have been one of the people abused by Diddy. Whatever the case, he’s not only denied them all but he’s put up a $100,000 reward to investigate the leaks of what he calls a “smear campaign” against Diddy.
