Diddy's key to Miami Beach to be rescinded by city amid rapper's arrest
MIAMI, FLORIDA: Sean "Diddy" Combs is facing yet another setback as Miami Beach officials prepare to rescind a symbolic key to the city awarded to him in 2015, as reported by TMZ.
Sources close to the situation confirm that the city is in the final stages of removing the honor, though the exact timing remains uncertain due to Hurricane, which is expected to make landfall in Florida on Wednesday.
Diddy's Miami Beach key in jeopardy
The key was initially presented to Diddy by former Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine during the 2015 Revolt Music Conference at the Fontainebleau, marking a significant moment for the music mogul.
However, the recent arrest and indictment have triggered city officials to reconsider the award, following a trend seen earlier this year when Diddy voluntarily returned his Key to New York City after a request from Mayor Eric Adams.
The decision to revoke the key is a continuation of Diddy's ongoing legal troubles, including the release of an assault video involving his former girlfriend Cassie Ventura. The once-celebrated figure in the entertainment industry is now seeing his legacy unravel, with Miami Beach being the latest to take action.
While the exact date for the rescinding remains uncertain due to the hurricane, insiders say it's only a matter of time before the decision is made official.
Diddy’s key to Miami Beach to be returned sparking major social media buzz
Diddy's impending loss of the Miami Beach key has sparked significant chatter across Facebook, with users weighing in on the situation.
One user voiced approval, stating, "Good, he doesn’t need any keys!!!" while another added, "The only key he should worry about is the one that’s never going to unlock…."
One remarked, "But he’s still got NY key! I’m sure it’s keeping him cozy at night." However, others showed little sympathy. One user wrote, "I have zero sympathy for Diddy."
"The way Diddy face-punched, body-kicked, glass-smashed, body-dragged his then girlfriend, musician Cassie down the hotel hallway like a beach ball & rag doll, caught on 2016 video is enough reason to put that predator behind bars," a user said.
"What’s the hold up? Should’ve been taken away a long time ago," one user demanded, while another summarized the situation by saying, "That’s the least of his worries."
