Now, officials in Miami Beach are taking matters into their own hands. According to the Miami Herald, on June 27, the city wide celebration, Sean Diddy Combs Day, was formally rescinded.
In 2016, then Mayor Philip Levine and the City Commission announced the decision to recognize, October 13, as the vanity holiday during the 3rd Revolt Music Conference. At the root of the decision to defunct the day, representatives cited the graphic video, in which Diddy is seen assaulting his ex-girlfriend and former Bad Boy Records singer Cassie.
The governing body behind the decision, the Miami Beach Commission, released a statement shortly after.
“Upon reflection, the Mayor and City Commission have determined that recognizing October 13, 2016 as ’Sean Diddy Combs Day’ is no longer in harmony with the City’s values of safety,” read the note. “Community well-being, and respect, and wish to rescind the proclamation.”
Diddy has not issued a statement regarding the matter.
Although Diddy is not a native of Miami Beach, he does own property in the city and has spent a great deal of time between there and his other home in Los Angeles. In March, both properties were raided by Homeland Security, reportedly in connection with a sex trafficking investigation. During the Los Angeles raid, Diddy’s sons Justin and Christian were supposedly detained by officials, then later released.
Music mogul Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is requesting additional time to prepare a response to a lawsuit filed against him by a woman, identified as Jane Doe, who alleges an inappropriate encounter with the music executive when she was 17 years old. Diddy’s lawyer, Jonathan Davis, informed the judge that unforeseen confidential circumstances require an extension for the mogul to reply to the lawsuit.
Allhiphop.com reports: In a letter to the court, Davis stated, “Due to circumstances beyond the control of the Combs Defendants, which circumstances are of a confidential nature, we respectfully request that the Court modify the Motion Schedule to extend Defendants’ time to file their opposition to the Motion from December 27, 2023, to January 17, 2024, and extend Plaintiff’s time to file a reply, if any, from January 8, 2024, to January 31, 2024.”
The legal battle has already seen resistance from Diddy and his associate Harve, who have indicated in previous court documents that they do not consent to Jane Doe’s motion to proceed anonymously. The issue of anonymity has become a point of contention between the parties.
Jane Doe’s lawyer, Douglas H. Wigdor, has stressed the importance of her remaining anonymous, citing potential chilling effects on future plaintiffs and emphasizing the significant trauma she has allegedly experienced due to the reported assault. The disagreement over anonymity sets the stage for a substantial legal battle in what is becoming a high-stakes lawsuit.
Last month, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ former nanny sued the business mogul for wrongful termination using the name Jane Roe. Diddy wanted her name released to the public and a Los Angeles Superior Court judge told Roe she could not move forward with her lawsuit using the pseudonym, Jane Roe.
Raven pleaded with the court to let her use Roe claiming she feared Diddy’s fans would harass her and her family. In her motion, she said she was, “Desperate to preserve the privacy she had left, terrified of possible physical harm to her and her minor children, and fearful of further victim shaming, blaming, and retaliation.”
The nanny’s name has been revealed.
Radar Online reports:
The nanny who sued Diddy for alleged wrongful termination has revealed her identity in court — days after a judge ordered her to do so despite her fear of being harassed, RadarOnline.com has learned.
According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, Diddy’s ex-employee filed an amended complaint with her name of Raven Wales-Walden.
In her lawsuit, Raven said Diddy hired her after Kim’s death in 2018 to take care of the twins they shared, Jessie James and D’Lila.
Raven said she moved into Diddy’s house and became extremely tight with the family. She said it all fell apart when she asked for maternity leave in August 2020. She said she was fired and told Diddy didn’t like his daughters seeing an unmarried woman pregnant.
Diddy called the lawsuit a “meritless shakedown” and said he believed it was meant to “extort” him.
He admitted hiring Raven but said the job was always meant to be temporary. His rep said, “Her babysitting services were always intended to be temporary especially since the girls were getting older and spending most of the day at school.”
In her lawsuit, Raven claimed she was the cousin of Diddy’s late ex, Kim Porter. Diddy denied the claim.
Sean “Diddy” Combs announces the rebranding of his parent company from Combs Enterprises to Combs Global after three decades of business success across his well-known brands and a historic last year that included a landmark acquisition of becoming the largest minority-owned, vertically integrated multi-state operator in the Cannabis industry.
With this news, his illustrious portfolio of companies—which has long symbolized power in music, entertainment, fashion, spirits, and media/television—expands worldwide. When Combs Global was established in 2013, its initial partners were Sean John, Capital Preparatory Charter Schools, Bad Boy Entertainment, Combs Spirits (Cîroc Vodka, DeLeón Tequila), AQUAhydrate, REVOLT MEDIA, and The Sean Combs Foundation. Since then, it has grown to encompass more company divisions and endeavors, including Empower Global, formerly Shop Circulate, Our Fair Share, Love Records, and a foray into the cannabis industry. Combs Global has a clear vision as it begins a new chapter and doesn’t appear to be slowing down.
“Combs Global represents the next chapter in my journey as a business leader and a bigger vision to build the largest portfolio of leading Black-owned brands in the world,” said Sean “Diddy” Combs. “I’ve enlisted world-class teams of top executives, specialists and strategic partners to bring this new dream to life and put us in the best position to keep making history while leading another 30 years of dominance across industries.”
Combs added to his global portfolio this past year with the acquisition of The Nile List, a $2 million investment in the creator platform REC Philly, and a record $185 million purchase of critical markets and assets from the top cannabis company CRESCO Labs. Combs has added sites for his elite Capital Preparatory charter schools, which now include locations in Hartford, Connecticut, and the Bronx, New York. Combs announced the opening of Love Records, an all-R&B record label, in his much-anticipated return to the music industry. This new music imprint expands on the famous history of Bad Boy Entertainment.
A brand-new era for the business began with the introduction of Combs Global, which completely rebranded the website, social media platforms, and brand communications. The new visual identity was announced in conjunction with ambitions to expand the company and its business units internationally. Combs Global will achieve some amazing milestones in 2023. Combs will continue to set the bar as one of the most prosperous and creative businesspeople of all time with the 30th anniversary of Bad Boy Entertainment, the 15th anniversary of his association with Diageo, and the 10th anniversary of REVOLT.
The new logo, which serves as a reminder of Combs’ unparalleled accomplishment as a hitmaker, debuted in the wildly popular Uber One Super Bowl commercial featuring Combs. Combs is a master marketer who takes advantage of the opportunity to unveil the new company name and logo and incorporate his tequila and vodka brands, Cîroc and DeLeón, into the advertisement. The entire commercial and NCAA men’s basketball both made their debuts last week after being previewed at the Grammys Pro Bowl. You can see the commercial below.
It appears Diddy has welcomed a baby girl this weekend. Today (December 10) the rapper, producer, and entrepreneur announced via Twitter that his baby daughter was born.
“I’m so blessed to welcome my baby girl Love Sean Combs to the world,” he said. “Mama Combs, Quincy, Justin, Christian, Chance, D’Lila, Jessie and myself all love you so much! God is the Greatest!”

The news seems to be a surprise to everyone, as Diddy’s rumored girlfriend Caresha Brownlee, better known as Yung Miami of City Girls, hadn’t announced she was pregnant within the past year. The last time Miami announced a pregnancy was in 2019, when she revealed she was expecting her second child in the trailer for City Girls’ BET documentary, Point Blank Period, Part 2.
While the news of a baby may come as a shock, some fans are speculating that Diddy may not even be talking about a baby at all. Some believe the mogul is hinting at something else. Perhaps an album, or a liquor partnership, or fashion line.
“is this the new Album? It’s gotta be the new album,” said one Twitter user. “A new…. liquor? A new clothing line? A new self-help book. “Anyway, congrats on the new marketing!”
As some Twitter users had theories, some simply weren’t buying it, and immediately concluded that he was bluffing.
“Diddy talking about an Album and GossipTwitter losing their minds thinking he got somebody pregnant,” said another Twitter user.
