Fans Defend Sean 'Diddy' Combs Amid Prison Sentence

Fans of Sean 'Diddy' Combs felt the release of his mug shot wasn't necessary.
Some fans defended Combs, 56, while slamming whoever released the "I'll Be Missing You" rapper's mug shot.
"He's [almost] 60. It’s normal aging, whoopty do," one supporter declared, as another added, "He looks like a regular aging man. These filters and fake stuff have made us forget what people look like."
"Still looks the same except he has gray hair now. Like other 56 year olds so what’s the big deal?" a third social media user agreed.
Sean 'Diddy' Combs Transferred to Low-Security Prison in New Jersey

Sean 'Diddy' Combs was transferred to FCI Fort Dix on October 30.
The release of Combs' intake photo comes less than two weeks after he was transferred to Fort Dix on October 30.
Combs had previously been locked up at the Metropolitan Detention Center in NYC since his arrest last year.
The transfer came at the request of the music mogul's legal team, claiming his move to the low-security jail would allow him to participate in a residential drug abuse program.
Combs' lawyers also argued that the New Jersey prison allegedly allows him to be closer to his family for visitation while he serves his 50-month sentence for two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.
The "I Need a Girl" hitmaker's attorneys are hopeful to have Combs' sentence reduced if he maintains good behavior and continues to show improvement in his sobriety and mental health journeys.
Combs avoided what could have been a lifelong prison sentence after he was acquitted of his more serious s-- trafficking and racketeering conspiracy charges following an intense eight-week trial earlier this year.
