An additional challenge for mogul comes from Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, which has chosen black dandyism as the next Met Gala theme. A$AP Rocky, Pharrell Williams, Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, and LeBron James will chair the event.
Diddy seemed like a fitting headliner before recent controversies. He has attended this prestigious fashion night for years.
Two decades ago, he won the Men’s Wear Designer of the Year award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America. In 1998 he launched his own clothing line.

“Now, he risks losing not just his showbiz reputation but also his standing in high fashion, which clearly distances itself from him,” a source told the National Enquirer.
In 2024, Diddy got removed from Met Gala guest list due to a federal investigation. Recently, more serious allegations surfaced against him. If found guilty he faces at least 15 years in prison.
