New York, NY - 

Diddy appears to have undergone a dramatic physical transformation during the months he has spent in jail waiting for his sex trafficking trial to begin.

Last week, the Bad Boy Records founder appeared in court to request a delay to his trial date amidst a number of late additional charges to Diddy’s rap sheet but the request was denied by the judge.

While no cameras were present for the hearing, a courtroom sketch artist was in attendance and depicted Diddy.

Going off the sketch, Diddy’s black hair had turned completely grey and it appeared longer and messier than usual.

Diddy was also illustrated possessing a grey beard and it could be interpreted that he had lost weight while behind bars.

Diddy and his legal team are yet to comment on his health while he has been held in the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

The record executive recently scored a minor legal win ahead of his trial as he has been allowed to access some drafts of Cassie’s as yet unreleased memoir.

The Bad Boy Records founder had served his former girlfriend with a subpoena ordering that she turn over “all draft memoirs, autobiographies, narratives, diaries, journals or notes 
 and any communications about plans to publish or threaten to publish such a document.”

While Cassie attempted to block Diddy from obtaining access, Judge Arun Subramanian has ruled that early versions of the book’s manuscript be handed over to the mogul’s legal team ahead of his trial for sex trafficking.

Diddy’s team have claimed that the book drafts could feature discrepancies that could contradict statements made by Cassie about the nature of her relationship with the record executive.

Cassie and her attorneys claimed that the documents were irrelevant to the case but the judge has allowed Diddy and his lawyers to view versions of the memoir that are already in possession of prosecutors.

The judge denied Diddy’s request for access to Cassie’s diaries, notes and emails as well as her bank records.

According to Diddy’s legal team, Cassie previously told the mogul that she had written a book about their relationship and that he could purchase it for $30 million to prevent it from being published.
