Intake Photo After Transfer To Fort Dix Prison Goes Viral
It’s been more than a year since Diddy walked free. Back then, in September 2024, he had not a strand of grey hair to show. After more than a year behind bars, that’s no longer the case. Unable to use hair dye in lock-up, Sean Combs is now rocking that “silver fox” look! We’ve known about the appearance switch-up since trial and sentencing, thanks to sketch artists replacing cameras banned from the courtroom. Now, the first close-up photo of Diddy has finally appeared on the internet following his transfer to Fort Dix Correctional Institute. As expected, social media users aren’t sparing their thoughts!

Where Did The Latest Diddy Photo Come From?
CBS News shared the viral visual of Diddy on Monday (November 11) after publishing an article about his life inside Fort Dix. Combs ended up in the New Jersey prison after spending about 14 months at the Metro Detention Center in Brooklyn. His lawyers advocated for him to be moved to Fort Dix, a low-security male prison, so he could participate in its drug treatment and other rehab programs.
In July, a jury convicted the Bad Boy Records founder of flying his girlfriends and male sex workers around the country to engage in drug-fueled sexual encounters. However, he was acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges that could have imprisoned him for life. His legal team is still fighting to appeal the decision, and the 50-month sentence he got in October. For now, he’s scheduled to be released on May 8, 2028.
The new photo of Sean Combs shows him posing for a mugshot in what seems like a dimly lit area. He’s not smiling as he stands in front of a height chart. Large patches of silver hair can be seen on the sides and top of his head. Meanwhile, his beard is almost completely white.
How Is Life Behind Bars For Sean Combs?
In a letter to the judge before Diddy was sentenced, he said he has gone through a “spiritual reset” in jail. Additionally, he claimed was “committed to the journey of remaining a drug free, non-violent and peaceful person.” Well, now that he’s in Fort Dix it seems like he’s attempting to follow through on his word. According to CBS News, he’s working in prison chapel as the chaplain’s assistant. His job includes maintaining its library, record-keeping and cleaning up its office. Additionally, he’s enrolled in the intensive drug treatment program.
But not all is well. CBS confirmed circulating reports from last week that claimed he got in trouble for an unauthorized phone call. That allegedly happened days after arriving at the New Jersey prison on October 30. It is said he made a call to a woman who later added a man, which is against the prison’s rules about three-way calls. Combs reportedly claims the chat was with his legal team. Prison officials recommended that Diddy lose 90 days of commissary and phone privileges. They made the request on his 56th birthday on November 4, but it’s unclear if the disciplinary recommendation got accepted.
