Diddy Trial Begins as Potential Jurors Asked if They Are Familiar With Michael B. Jordan, Kanye West, Kid Cudi, Mike Myers and More Celebrities


Sean 'Diddy' Combs' federal trial began Monday. Potential jurors were asked if they recognize celebrities including Michael B. Jordan and Kanye West.

Jury selection for Sean “Diddy” Combs’ sex trafficking trial began Monday morning in New York as a media circus surrounded the courthouse in Lower Manhattan. Those lawsuits are separate from the federal trial, which will likely feature testimony from high-profile figures such as Combs’ ex-girlfriend Casandra “Cassie” Ventura and other alleged victims whose names have yet to be revealed. Federal prosecutors say they have interviewed more than 50 witnesses and recovered evidence from over 100 laptops, cellphones and other electronic devices that paint Combs as a serial abuser who led a vast criminal network held together by assistants, security guards and other employees who kept quiet for years.
