In the acclaimed film, Diddy portrayed Lawrence Musgrove, a convicted murderer who shares emotional final moments with his wife Leticia (played by Halle Berry) before his execution. The ensemble, as described by the auction house, includes a short-sleeved white Hanes crew neck t-shirt, a light grey crew neck sweatshirt with cut-off sleeves, a pair of Faded Glory blue jeans, and black canvas slip-on shoes.

The costume was worn during the beginning and middle parts of the film, including key scenes where Musgrove meets with his wife and son.

Ongoing Trial & Presidential Interest
The auction announcement comes at a tense time for Diddy, who is currently facing a criminal trial on five felony counts, including sex trafficking and racketeering conspiracy. If convicted, the 54-year-old music mogul faces life in prison.

In a surprising twist, US President Donald Trump hinted at a possible pardon for Diddy during a White House press conference on Friday. “I would certainly look at the facts before making a decision,” Trump said, acknowledging the widespread media coverage but adding that he hadn’t been following the case closely.

Trump also remarked on his past rapport with Diddy: “He used to really like me a lot, but I think when I ran for politics… that relationship busted up. I don’t know — he didn’t tell me that, but I’d read some little bit nasty statements,” he said.

Diddy has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
