“Free Puff” T-Shirts Outside Sean “Diddy” Combs Trial May Be Part of Paid Protest
May 2025 – New York City — A crowd wearing “Free Puff” T-shirts has gathered outside the courthouse where Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing a federal investigation. But signs suggest this show of support may not be entirely genuine.
Dozens of people in matching shirts appeared near the courthouse in recent days. Some held signs and chanted in support of Combs. However, several reports now indicate that many of these individuals may have been paid to attend.
Social media posts and online ads have surfaced, offering money for people to “show up” near the courthouse. A few participants admitted on camera that they didn’t know much about Combs or the case. They joined simply because they were offered compensation.
This has sparked concerns. Critics argue that paid demonstrations can distort public opinion and influence how people perceive the trial.
Combs’ team has not confirmed or denied any link to the T-shirt protest. As the case unfolds, the scene outside the courtroom raises questions. Is it a genuine movement—or a carefully planned media strategy?
