Sean “Diddy” Combs is being put to work as he continues his sentence at a new prison facility.

After Us Weekly confirmed that the disgraced rap mogul was transferred to the federal prison in Fort Dix, New Jersey, on Thursday, October 30, new details are being revealed about his life behind bars.

Sources familiar with the situation told TMZ on Friday, October 31, that Diddy’s first job at the prison is in the laundry room, where he is expected to wash and dry clothes.

Us has reached out to the prison and Diddy’s team for additional comment.

Where Is Diddy Serving His Prison Sentence? Inside New Jersey’s Fort Dix

Diddy’s move to the low-security prison for men — that houses around 4,000 inmates — came right before Halloween.

According to the prison’s commissary list obtained by Us, Diddy will have plenty of sweets to choose from this holiday season.

Classic candy bars like Snickers and Pay Day are available for $1.50 and $1.45, respectively. Chocolate peanuts will cost Diddy $1.60, while root beer barrels go over the $2 mark.

If Diddy feels like splurging, peppermint twists are available at $3.65 each, while Jolly Ranchers will set him back a whopping $5.10 per pack.

Diddy’s commissary at the prison also has options for inmates trying to stay healthy. Snacks like unsalted peanuts, granola mix, dill pickle pouches, Ultra Fit bars and dates are available to purchase.

The priciest items on the commissary list include a $131 Score 7T tablet, on which individuals can access music, games and emails. The Internet, however, is unavailable. Walking shoes are also available for $52, and headphones can be obtained for $36.

Diddy’s Halloween weekend will certainly look different from past years. While the rapper has previously gone all out for the holiday by either hosting parties or dressing up in elaborate costumes, life behind bars doesn’t have many celebrations.

President Donald Trump Confirms Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs Asked Him for a Pardon

Diddy was arrested in September 2024 on charges of transportation to engage in prostitution, sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy. He pleaded not guilty to all charges and denied the allegations against him.

In July, a New York jury found Diddy guilty on two counts of transportation but acquitted him of the other charges. A judge later sentenced the businessman to 50 months in prison.

According to the Bureau of Prisons website, Diddy is scheduled to be released on May 8, 2028.

Diddy’s lawyer Teny Geragos previously fought for his client’s relocation to Fort Dix as he stayed in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center.

“In order to address drug abuse issues and to maximize family visitation and rehabilitative efforts, we request that the court [strongly] recommend to the Bureau of Prisons that Mr. Combs be placed at FCI Fort Dix,” Geragos wrote in a letter to the judge.

Diddy’s team — who previously argued for a 14-month prison sentence — recently claimed that conditions in the MDC include “limited access to clean water” and “lack of access to healthy, or edible, food.”

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos leaned into the pop culture zeitgeist for their 2025 Halloween costumes.

Ripa, 55, and Consuelos, 54, showed off more than 60 different costumes during the Friday, October 31, episode of Live With Kelly and Mark. From Severance and Hamilton to demonic Labubu dolls, the couple channeled some of the biggest viral trends of the year.

Of course, they couldn’t let another year go by without giving a shout-out to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. For the third Halloween in a row, Ripa and Consuelos dressed up as the internet’s favorite couple in a spot-on recreation of Swift’s “New Heights” podcast appearance.

In addition to dressing up themselves, Ripa and Consuelos — who have been married since May 1996 and share son Michael, 28, daughter Lola, 24, and son Joaquin, 22 — invited fans to wear their costumes to the Friday taping of their talk show in New York City. The grand prize winner of their costume contest received an eight-day Danube River cruise from Viking valued at more than $15,000.

Kelly Ripa’s Best Halloween Costumes Through the Years

Last year, Ripa and Consuelos found similar pop culture inspiration for their Halloween costumes. The couple dressed up as Swift andKelce at the US Open, Beetlejuice characters Lydia Deetz and Beetlejuice, Only Murders in the Building characters Mabel Mora and Charles-Haden Savage, Deadpool and Lady Deadpool, Olympians Raygun and Anthony Ammirati and Inside Out 2 characters Joy and Anger.

Ripa has made a tradition out of dressing up for Halloween with her Live cohosts, including Regis Philbin, Ryan Seacrest and more. Consuelos took up the mantle when he joined the show as Ripa’s permanent cohost in 2023.

Offset dropped a surprise new album on Halloween — and it included an apparent shout-out to his estranged wife, Cardi B, and her boyfriend, Stefon Diggs.

The former Migos rapper, 33, seemingly took aim at Cardi, 33, and Diggs, 31, on “No Sweat” from Haunted by Fame, which he released on Friday, October 31. The possible shade comes in the verse when Offset raps, “How the f*** you leave Jordan for Rodman? / You a fool if you think that I’m hurt.”

After the reference to former Chicago Bulls players Michael Jordan and Dennis Rodman (with Offset as the Jordan in this scenario), the rapper seemingly directs words just to Cardi.

“You ain’t happy, I know how it work / How you married and still givin’ birth?” the lyrics read. “Get some help, bitch, you goin’ berserk.”

Offset Regrets ‘Stepping Out’ on Cardi B: ‘Should Have Respected Her’

While Cardi filed for divorce from Offset in July 2024, the estranged couple haven’t finalized their split. Last month, she claimed her ex is the reason the divorce is still in process, alleging that Offset wants her to pay his tax debts.

“The only reason why I’m still married is because somebody wants me to pay for their taxes,” she claimed in a September chat on X Spaces. “Y’all wanna know the tea The only way I can get out of my marriage is if I pay for somebody else’s taxes, even though I pay for my own, and give them one of my properties. I’m fighting for that, I’m gonna fight for that. This is not no love s***.”

She also addressed the fact that she’s currently expecting a baby with Diggs, to whom she was first linked in October 2024. Cardi confirmed last month she is pregnant with her fourth child, her first with Diggs. She and Offset share three kids: daughters Kulture, 7, and Blossom, 13 months, and son Wave, 4.

“Yes, I’m having a baby with somebody else. So what? That happens. It’s life,” Cardi continued in the X chat. “Let me tell you something, I did things the correct way the first time. I fell in love. I got two rings on my finger. I lasted seven years. … Stop saying, ‘Oh, but you’re still married.’ No, I’m legally separated.”

In a second song on Haunted by Fame, Offset appears to throw additional barbs at Cardi, rapping about a woman who he claims only gets attention because of her association with him.

“I know these n****s only wanna f*** you ’cause I f*** with you,” he raps on the chorus. “Please don’t think that this about you / Hate to be the one to bring you bad news.”

He continues in the verse, “No regrets, though / I taught you everything that you know / You not makin’ decisions, I’m still in control / Only reason these n****s f*** with you ’cause you were my ho / How does it feel?”

Cardi, for her part, addressed her split from Offset on the track “Man of Your Word” from her latest album, Am I the Drama, which dropped last month. When asked about the song during an interview with CBS Mornings, the Grammy winner replied, “I just wish he was a better person. But it is what it is. Be a better person for your kids.”

To Kathy Griffin’s great surprise, she’s a new award winner. “I’m so used to being a bit of a rebel outsider in Hollywood,” she tells Us of her recent honor from the cancer charity WeSpark. “They gave me an award, and it’s about resilience. I’m laughing because now I’m the face of resilience because I’ve been through so much s*** that it’s crazy.”

That’s an understatement: Weathering a career-crushing political scandal following a 2017 photo of herself holding the mock decapitated head of President Trump, the last few years have also found Griffin battling lung cancer, prescription drug addiction and even a suicide attempt. It took some time, but Griffin is finding the funny even in that. “Who becomes a junkie at 57?” she asks with a wry smile.

In her surprisingly personal new special, My Life on the PTSD List (now streaming on YouTube), she tackles it all — and previews the kind of stories she’ll be sharing when she hits the road for her New Face, New Tour dates beginning Nov. 8. (Yes, that title is a reference to her facelifts, and she’s just as amazed as Us that those became international news!) “I’m trying to be known as a stalwart in comedy; a comedy face that you can count on, and now I’m a comedy face that’s been redone!”

Amidst the life (and cosmetic) rebuilding, Griffin, now 64, is also still downloading fans on the kind of celebrity run-ins that are her bread and butter. No matter what’s thrown her way, she’ll never stop fighting for her place in comedy. “I may not be your favorite comic, but I’ve done more specials than any other comedian, male or female, living or dead,” she says. “And damn it, that’s something.”

Kathy Griffin’s Ups and Downs: Milestones, Health Scares and More

Your new special gets into serious topics like lung cancer and your suicide attempt. When did you feel that you were ready to talk about that?

My act has always been my life. But to get my act, I have to go out in the world and be living. When the Trump photo happened and cancer happened, I felt like my world was caving in. That’s when I became addicted to prescription pills. But I’m still going to laugh, because the idea that I started being a junkie [recently] is just funny… Most of my friends deserted me, and that was the hardest part to deal with.

Tell Us what you learned from that whole experience.

I’ve learned so much. I thought about my dear departed friend Joan Rivers and how she came back after such adversity, and she always gave me amazing advice. She was no longer with us when the Trump head picture happened, but she knew Donald well.

So I had Don Rickles from the grave in my ear saying, “Get back on stage.” I had Joan Rivers saying, “Take the check,” or whatever funny thing she would have said. Something happens to me when my feet hit that stage, where it’s innate now. My first show back, I’ll always remember. I just walked on stage, and the audience stood up, and I was like, “Whoa, wait, I haven’t done anything yet!”

What advice would you give someone going through a tough time?

I would say, go harder… I’m probably the worst person to come to for that question, because I’m going to say double down, and the only thing I regret out of that whole experience was apologizing.

Jimmy Kimmel gave you a shout-out when he returned to his show last month. What did that mean to you?

It meant the world because Jimmy never canceled me, and there’s many shows I’m still banned from, in fact, most shows. So the ones that said you can still come on [mean so much], and Jimmy was in the forefront. I understand there’s a backlash. I’ve had very, very famous celebrities say to me, “I love you. I love your stuff. But frankly, if we take a picture together and it gets posted, my comments are going to be swarmed by Trumpers, and that’s just not something I’m used to.”

Stars Who Beat Breast Cancer: Linda Evangelista, Cynthia Nixon and More

That’s so hard.

Part of me is like, “Really?” But the other part of me [gets] it. I had a very famous, legendary comedian call me and say, “Hey, I just taped my latest special. I did a bunch of Trump stuff live, and it killed in the room. The audience loved it, but I ended up cutting it out of the special because I didn’t want to get Kathy Griffined.”

I’ve become a verb. I kind of don’t blame you. I didn’t want to get Kathy Griffined either. It was a lot of legal fees, and it was scary to be put under oath and interrogated by the Department of Justice and be on the no-fly list. That stuff is real, and it costs real money, and it costs real years of hard work that can go away overnight, like it did with me. So having someone say, “I don’t want to get Kathy Griffined,” I actually appreciated their honesty.

Who’s your favorite celebrity to roast these days?

Where do I even start? I will be making fun of the biggest stars, whether they’re my friend or not. I’m friends with Paris Hilton now; I can’t believe she even talks to me, considering all the smack I’ve talked about her over the years, but God love her. She herself is really funny, and she has this line that I love, which is: “As far as I’m concerned, it’s always 2008.” Honey, I’m right there with you. That was a great year for both of us!

It was recently the 20th anniversary of My Life on the D-List. What do you remember about that time?

I feel like it was yesterday. I don’t get a penny [but] I’m so glad at least people can rediscover my hilarious parents. I’m really proud of that show, because it was real; there was no script. They would follow me around for six months out of the year just hoping I did funny s**t.

What’s your biggest challenge right now?

Do you know the biggest challenge I have in selling tickets on any tour I’ve ever done? That I’m a female. To this day, the old trope that the chicks just aren’t as funny is ingrained in people. I’m very deferential to the women who came before me because that glass ceiling, they broke it. It somehow came back. It’s got to be re-broken year after year.

LILONGWE–(MaraviPost)-The Chipiku Premier Division League military side based in Salima, Parachute Battalion-Airborne Rangers has completed the transfer of 14 new players in the just-closed Central Region Football Association (CRFA) transfer window.

General Secretary of the team, Madalo Mkwate, says the signings follow a crisis meeting called by Parachute Battalion Unit Commander Lt Col RM Masese after the team’s undesirable first-round performance in the ongoing MK25 million Chipiku Stores Premier Division League.

“Indeed, we have completed the signings of 14 players following a crisis meeting we had with our unit commander regarding the team’s poor run in the league.

“We had an overaged squad that seemed tired and fatigued, hence we had to utilize the extended transfer window to overhaul the team. We have reinforced all departments, as previous players failed to contain other opponents who are using youthful squads,” he stated.

Rangers which were relegated from the TNM Super League in the 2014-2015 season, have struggled to convince in the league for a decade now.

Currently, the team finished the first round in 11th position with 17 points from 15 games, having won 4, lost 6, and drawn 5. The soldiers have scored 26 goals and conceded 26.

The Central Region Football Association (CRFA) mid-season transfer window opened on 11th October and was projected to close on the 18th.

However, the period was extended by one more week to accommodate teams that had yet to finish their first-round games.

CRFA General Secretary Antonio Manda confirmed the extension: “We extended the window period following an appeal from teams and considering that three teams didn’t finish their round one games.

“We found it imperative to extend the window. Green Rangers were suspended from playing games due to their conduct of assaulting referees”

Blue Eagles Reserve FC finished the first round at the summit following their impressive run in their maiden Premier Division League.

The Area 30-based cops managed to win 11 games, draw 2, and lose 2, scoring 30 goals and conceding 10, with a goal difference of 20.

The second round is anticipated to start on Saturday, as Airborne Rangers host Chatoloma ADMARC at Mangoes Ground, leaders Blue Eagles Reserve play against Armour Battalion at Nankhaka Stadium, and Pyramid FC host Mchinji Boma Strikers.
